huwwara _ anybody, looking - Knowbotic Research in NIMk
Presentation January 30 – January 31 2010 from 13.00 – 18.00 hrs, free entrance
huwwara _ anybody, looking is an installation consisting of different sets, media and viewing formats (an audio piece, a single-screen computer animation, a double-screen interactive video). The installation is based on the re-enactment of video footage, archived on Youtube, of a report from Israeli TV Channel 2. The installation enables the observer, placed in a "third position", a vexing immersion into his/her ways of looking at, and perceiving of, extremely overcoded protagonists such as suicide bombers and high-tech military actors. Interjected is a doubled, apparently inconspicuous view of the neutral silhouette of a Palestinian city at night. The display of the restaged TV scene provides access to a "narrative of strangeness", an opaque extension to the existing demonizing imagery applied from both sides of the political antagonism in the Middle East, as well as a displacement of super-hero figurations from adolescent role model techniques.

In memoriam
I'll keep it short. Great book, great writer! A man after my heart.
“I hope to hell that when I do die somebody has the sense to just dump me in the river or something. Anything except sticking me in a goddam cemetary. People coming and putting a bunch of flowers on your stomach on Sunday, and all that crap. Who wants flowers when you're dead? Nobody.”

will not send it via email!
dear all,
may i remind you that the name of the blog is "dogtime class of 2008" and not "ask zsolt"?
after a few months i'll not be part of it so to put it in other words it is up you guys what you want with such a blog, use it or not, structure it or not... i did ask you guys in a previous email to suggest categories, etc...
barbara's suggestion "to prepare" a presentation in class via the blog is excellent! i would also warmly welcome a presentation in class on what to do with info overload under the title, i don't know, "click it or skip it?" (subtitles practices or strategies)- any volunteers?
(or one could do "post-production" as i tried to do in some of my posts) but if you want to know what i think of personal little notes on whatever in this "universe" well to start with black holes exist and maybe it is not a universe after all but an omniverse... (beware if you force me i can make up words for things!)
by giving a title to an entry you can direct to "categories" but all palpable suggestions are welcome! i am as new to this particular blog set up (blogspot) as you are!)
singing out for now!
sleep well,
zsolt

Augmented Reality
“The latter half of the 20th century saw the built environment merged with media space, and architecture taking on new roles related to branding, image and consumerism. Augmented reality may recontextualise the functions of consumerism and architecture, and change in the way in which we operate within it.
A film produced for my final year Masters in Architecture, part of a larger project about the social and architectural consequences of new media and augmented reality.”- Keiichi Matsuda.

AR
Augmented reality. Hipper then hot!
Exciting and dangerous! Creates a whole new dimension to the old fashioned dichotomy of the virtual and the reel.
see for yourself.....
Wonder what this will do to the autonomy of spaces though.... Can a tree say, hey dont augment me?! And privacy, and and but is great fun too!
Ah technology is not good or bad, but also not neutral
old news: DIWO - dO iT wITH oTHERS
but i like the expression/ idea!
blame me: here link should be taking you to http://www.http.uk.net. why it doesn't beats me... maybe later i figure that 1 out 2!
the new german eu commissioner!
in the beginning of the clip he says english is the number one business language!

Art Bitch - Cansei de Ser Sexy
My art is called egocentric soft porno
Or maybe it's just narcisism
My one and only subject
Goes from something like anything but
Me ism
Wouldn't it be easier for beardsley
He could drop the paintings
And photograph his penis
Or take pics of the chicks
Yeah, you know what i mean
Wouldn't it be easier for escher
He could drop the marh
And make it happen on his matress
2 girls and a cam
3 girls and a cam
Put a dog there and you got polaroid scam
I ain't no art-ist
I am an art-bitch
I sell my panties to the men i eat
I have no port-fo-lee-o
Cuz i only show
Where there's free al-co-hol
I am so hardcore
I sell my crap and people ask for more
Call me re-vo-lu-tionaire
I poo on a plate and get it published on visionaire
What i do, it's called art-shit
And don't you dare make fun of me
Cuz everything i do was featured on the pages of id
I ain't no art-ist
I am an art-bitch
I sell my panties to the men i eat
I have no port-fo-lee-o
Cuz i only show
Where there's free al-co-hol
I ain't no art-ist
I am an art-bitch
I sell my paintings to the men i eat
I have no port-fo-lee-o
Cuz i only show
Where there's free al-co-hol
Lick lick lick my art-tit
Suck suck suck my art-hole
I ain't no art-ist
I am an art-bitch
I sell my panties to the men i eat
I have no port-fo-lee-o
Cuz i only show
Where there's free al-co-hol
I'll start a recipe...
It's two cups of gelitin,
mix it well, stir a concept,
technology as well.
Whip in some finance
a pinch of cocaine,
add a harmless scandal,
a media plan
all cooked up by a right hand man
- right hand man.
Andy Warhol, Valie Export,
what is juxtaposition?
Art is a playground
for people who have everything.
The rich will always be with us,
Art Basel, Miami,
the Venice Biennale
more controlled than lottery
Always modern, who's on top,
the artists or the dealers?
Where are all the women,
they are underneath the men.
Invest in a collection
or buy credibility.
Who cares about the content,
just match the tapestry.
/* CHORUS-TWICE
Brush it up, rip it down,
expensive glorified wallpaper,
Brush it up, rip it down,
art's the rule, cash the tool! */
Are you a nobody,
who'd die and get famous,
your own retrospective
at just 33!
What looks good today,
will it look good tomorrow?
Destroy your career
in one brush stroke,
Art in public spaces,
government founded crap,
the buro-arty-experts
their hands under the tap
Project one hit wonders
always in the front row.
It's Jeffrey Deitch,
that heat seeking missile.
/* CHORUS */
Joseph Beuys had no choice,
felt and fat on his hat
Lit up the art world
with this lemon light bulb.
Miss Tracey's gossip column
which handbag did you buy?
It's a game, lets have sex,
but you are too drunk again.
Charles Saatchis burning,
he's lost his edge on taste
He's so now and then,
he puts his art to waste.
Jake and Dinos Chapman,
they're selling masterpieces
Dog returns to vomit
now is this really art?
/* CHORUS */
