{•,,•} : ANGELO PLESSAS. Toxiclibs. Peter Boyle Reviews Yasuhiro Yotsumoto and Shuntaro Tanikawa | Cordite Poetry Review. Family Room by Yasuhiro Yotsumoto Vagabond Press, 2009Watashi by Shuntaro Tanikawa Vagabond Press, 2010 At the outset I will say that, though my own latest book Apocrypha was published by Vagabond Press, I hold no financial interest in the press nor any motivation to promote these two books other than the merits I find in them.
The first collection under review, Yotsumoto’s Family Room, masterfully transcends the opposition between tradition and experiment; and Watashi, Tanikawa’s 20th collection to be published in English translation, certainly confirms this reviewer’s impression of being in the presence of a major poet. Born in 1959, Yasuhiro Yotsumoto has published eight collections of poetry in Japanese, each like Family Room (his first collection to appear in English translation) grouped around a single theme.
Family Room is divided into five sections: ‘Kids’; ‘Dad’; ‘Mom’; ‘Wife’ and ‘Husband’; and ‘Family’. Many of the poems in Family Room are marked by a quirky sense of humour. ♪ Network Ensemble ⚡ Francesco Tacchini. Power and Architecture — Calvert 22. Calvert 22 is delighted to announce its upcoming seasonal programme opening this summer, Power and Architecture. Taking place from 10 June – 9 October 2016, Power and Architecture will comprise four main interlinked elements: — A conference and a number of related talks — An exhibition of new and existing artwork presented in four parts — A series of architectural workshops connecting London and Prague — Curated digital content on The Calvert Journal For the ideological champions of utopian society, architecture is a clear and potent manifestation of a society’s power, influence and status.
From the gothic might of Stalin’s seven Vysotki to Astana’s gleaming Bayterek Tower, giant structures loom over the citizens of the former Soviet Union, signifying the grand ambitions of their rulers, past and present. Across the post-Soviet world, there is a common thread running through architectural styles. Oct22a_2011- OpenProcessing. The Coded City | WHITE NOISE. Dan Tapper's work explores the intersections between art, science and technology, creating unique and immersive experiences. Dan seeks to create objects that allow sensory augmentation, platforms for open education and spaces that inspire wonder. Here he explains the images he digitally generated from photographs of White City. "I came to White City through Polaroid imagery, blue skies and bone towers – colours molded together the way only Polaroids can.
This image triggered my exploration into creating a digitally-augmented version of White City: a generative system reworking images of skylines and cityscapes into futuristic vistas with impossible architecture. I began exploring a series of algorithms and rule-based systems, ranging from image processing to automatic drawing and grid networks. "Above all else this is a process exploring growth.

Code Poetry. Emilio Jiménez’ Enchanting Shadow Photos (NSFW) | Art-Sheep. By Melissa Faithful Emilio Jiménez is a photographer currently based in Madrid, Spain. His photography centers around the nude female body, with Jimenez exploring its aspects and possibilities. The photographer finds imaginative concepts to shoot his models. From pool photo-shootings to shadow games, Jimenez manages to create stunning visual compositions. In his series Natural Wild Anatomy (Anatomía natural, salvaje) he begins a game of light and shadow, capturing his models as the shadows of leaves caress their bodies. Stroboscopic images. Valerie Casey :: The Museum Effect. Museum Authority and the Ways of Seeing The museum acquires social authority by controlling ways of seeing, and the objects around which museal vision is directed gather meaning from their context within the museum.
In Museum Without Walls, art historian and novelist Andre Malraux describes the museum effect where the very placement of the object within the museum creates its importance and validity.[1] Anthropologist Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett echoes this assertion: "[in the museum] objects are not found, they are made. "[2] Museums do not just gather valuable objects but make objects valuable by gathering them. The museum is able to produce cultural knowledge by organizing how the materials it authorizes are seen - by controlling the Gaze. The Gaze as Analytical Framework For this analysis, the Gaze is used as the conceptual framework with which to examine the evolution of museum practices. This notion of the screen applies to museum practice in two ways.

Models were suspended in vacuums between plastic sheeting during Dutch fashion designer Iris van Herpen's Autumn Winter 2014 show at Paris Fashion Week. Iris van Herpen and Belgian artist Lawrence Malstaf created the installation in which models were held in midair between sheets of plastic. "Models float in the air, embryonic, seemingly weightless and in a meditative suspended animation," said Van Herpen.
Tubes extracted most of the air from the sheets to suck them tightly around the models, who posed in foetal or crouched positions wearing shimmering dresses. The plastic sheets were hung in a line along the centre of the catwalk used to present Van Herpen's ready to wear collection, titled Biopiracy. The collection included 3D-printed garments created in collaboration with Austrian architect Julia Koerner, who previously helped design a dress for Van Herpen's Voltage collection presented last year. Exquisite Corpse: Architecture Assembled / Spring 2016 / The Berlage. The Berlage Center for Advanced Studies in Architecture and Urban Design is pleased to announce a one-day symposium entitled “Exquisite Corpse: Architecture Assembled.”
Distinguished international practitioners and educators will explore the assembly of contemporary architectural production, from drawing and text to collage and montage. Inspired by the Surrealists’ cadavre exquis, they will examine and question the conventions of authorship, coherency, predictability, individualism, and composition. Topics will include the history and theory of collage and montage; the architectural plan, from its political and administrative uses to its technical and generative manifestations; drawing as both a reflective and projective tool; the interrelations between text, image, and narration; the influence of everyday routines of architectural design and culture; the architectural drawing in the age of outsourcing; and post-digital representation and new forms of architectural projection.

Artists in Laboratories (#A.I.L) by Resonance FM. About – We Make Money Not Art. Auger Loizeau: Smell+ This project explores the human experiential potential of the sense of smell, applying contemporary scientific research in a range of domestic and social contexts.
The current low status of smell is a result of the revaluation of the senses by philosophers and scientists of the 18th and 19th centuries. Smell was considered lower order, primitive, savage and bestial. Smell is the one sense where control is lost, each intake of breath sends loaded air molecules over the receptors in the nose and in turn potentially gutteral, uncensored information to the brain. At the same time our bodies are emitting, loading the air around us and effecting others in ways we are only now starting to understand. loading...

Wellbeing This area is closely related to health but could be viewed as 1. 1. 1. 1. Processing Plant /// Inferno. Inferno (working title) is a robotic performance project inspired by the representation of the different levels of hell as described in Dante's Inferno or the Singaporean Haw Par Villa's Ten Courts of Hell1 (which is based on a Chinese Buddhist representation).
In Inferno, the "circles of hell" concept is mainly an artistic framework, a general working theme under which the different parts of the performance will be regrouped. It is observed that under these two cultural representations, each "level of hell" corresponds to a particular form of punishment for a particular sin. In the many depictions of Hell, the punishments are always carried on the human body and not directly at the psychological level. The excruciating pain and also the eternal aspect of the punishment induces the latter.
The specificity of this performance project resides in the fact that the different machines involved in the show will be installed on the viewers' body. Trentemøller.

In 1961 the French philosopher Paul Ricoeur observed: ‘Everywhere throughout the world, one finds the same bad movie, the same slot machines, the same plastic or aluminum atrocities, the same twisting of language by propaganda.’1 Witness the problem of universalisation: a toxic byproduct of the globalisation process. Of course, we are familiar with solo cups and Oreos, but what does this mean for architecture and urbanism? Will all of our cities soon look the same? Are we on track to pepper them with a familiar mix of Hadid and Koolhaas, and then again with anonymous Modernist blocks and Postmodernist McDonald’s?
A famous answer to this question, one that gained great popularity towards the end of the past millennium, in the wake of the Postmodernist debate, was so-called Critical Regionalism. In a certain sense, Critical Regionalism has been a victim of its success, as the leaders it brought into the global spotlight began building internationally. Image References 1.
