“Mom would be thrilled”

November 16th, 2009I took this somewhat recently and liked it:
Harper & George
I saw this recently and liked it:
Terri Weifenbach from her show Woods at Civilian Art Projects.
This is probably tied with the Burtynsky show at the Corcoran for best shows in DC at the moment. It’s up until 12/09.
The show rules if you’re interested in walking in the woods.
I saw this years ago and want to see it again, sometime:
Anya Gallaccio

I imagine that if anne carson did fine art inkjet prints she’d lose all will to be a poet but out of habit write a poem.
and that poem poem would be along these lines:
Every day I look at a printer
that doesn’t love me.
Introspection
June 26th, 2009It’s been over a year since my graduation from Hampshire College. Since graduation, I have watched my Countdown Dashboard Widget , which had been set to count down to my thesis show, slowly march to negative 365 days. While doing so, I assumed that my one year graduation anniversary would be some sort of landmark that would, at the very least, invite some sort of introspection if not some massive crisis or party.
This was far from the case.
However, now, as I’ve run out of my savings and the financial reality of part-time employment sets in, I have been forced to face some facts…
So here are my

Orchestration
June 14th, 2009
“On the basis of what we know so far, here is the sequence of events starting on the afternoon of election day, Friday, June 12.
- Near closing time of the polls, mobile text messaging was turned off nationwide
- Security forces poured out into the streets in large numbers
- The Ministry of Interior (election headquarters) was surrounded by concrete barriers and armed men
- National television began broadcasting pre-recorded messages calling for everyone to unite behind the winner
- The Mousavi campaign was informed officially that they had won the election, which perhaps served to temporarily lull them into complacency
- But then the Ministry of Interior announced a landslide victory for Ahmadinejad
- Unlike previous elections, there was no breakdown of the vote by province, which would have provided a way of judging its credibility
- The voting patterns announced by the government were identical in all parts of the country, an impossibility (also see the comments of Juan Cole at the title link)
- Less than 24 hours later, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamene`i publicly announced his congratulations to the winner, apparently confirming that the process was complete and irrevocable, contrary to constitutional requirements
- Shortly thereafter, all mobile phones, Facebook, and other social networks were blocked, as well as major foreign news sources.”
