CommunityBox exchange for the dead-sea area artists – developments from

Here’s the initial idea, and a quick recap bellow: Through various crossings, such as the occupation’s borders, networks localities, technological physicalities, exchange sequences of time, networking and timing, surfing surfaces materialities (skateboarding), spoken, imagined and art archiving languages, cultural interpretations (eg anonymity as a cultural question), and other elements – the project will facilitate artistic […]

deadsea/palestine gallery archives and how they might evolve?

I am feeling a bit uneasy about the curated archives in community boxes because it feels finite, unquestioning.. Sort of default and defaulting to a known, rather than pushing/exploring – I suppose.. It seems that since the process skates/transgress borders as well as notions of art, artists roles and how they might link over space […]

thoughts or contemplations re power, imagination, embodiment and

art? Was checking arts linked Occupy Museums acts, and asked myself why am not exactly taking part of such actions/activities.. There seems, for me, to be a fair few elements that seem to prevent me from taking part, however here & now I’d like try focusing on power. To do occupation, perhaps only in my […]

ignorance of dangers and dangers of ignorance?

A few unrelated nor linked people told me that the idea of skateboarding, seeking artists and linking exchanges of community boxes in Palestine, might be a dangerous practice indeed. They said I should not ignore the possible dangers and try at least to resolve them. However, am increasingly become aware, or seemingly aware(?) of a […]

how art is when marketed and communicated?

Art marketing, perhaps the idea of it, gets on my tits – though it could also be that said tits are a tad too sensitive.. Just bumped into this art marketing info.. Am just struck, I suppose, by the non questioning tone of communication and marketing in art.. With the idea that art does language, […]

proof of no proof proofing unproved the proover dis-prover

protocols? Check some anti pro west news on rt.com, where they posted some details re Greenwald’s assertion that spy agencies do various online manipulations they really should not.. However the reality of the situation really is, in terms of news manipulations, the point is precisely that even if it does not occur – it is […]

numerical exchange is for poor people and

protocols are for rich happy fulfilled machines or a poorly paid culturally impoverished mechanised population? There used to be a certain prevalence to an idea for supporting empires that went like: Check the flourishing of life/culture in the Mongol empire regions compared to previous and post empire times. The prevalence of central power that normalised […]

the last muslim on mars?

seemingly some islamic sects bar their followers from going to Mars, at least in the foreseeable future, based on the assumption the whole adventure is fairly suicidal. Evolutionarily, it could be interesting because this is an example of how culture, religions are cultural elements, yes? – affects and intervenes in the evolution process. So here […]

lingo language and communication

comm systems? In this book about semantics: “semantics” by F. R. Palmer, the text goes on to talk about the definition of language, at list from semantic studies context. Am probably about to generalise, however at times general extrapolations do work… If there is indeed a different between languages and communication systems.. The sequence red […]

quick notes re going to Majdanek today

These are going to be very quick notes/lines indeed. People are waiting for me, but I just realised that have spent the better part of the morning making myself ill.. am just post toilete.. had a bit of a panic/cry as well.. Seems like thiws should be written despite the fact ppl wait – and […]

semantics or non communication as a signify of a language?

Perhaps not the best of headline for this post.. Have began Semantics by FR Palmer and intriguingly in my view, he elaborates about the difference between communication systems, eg red traffic light is to stop, and languages – where red, for example, can and does mean more than just stop.. Hence when I noticed a […]

where to Be in total Potemkin?

Bumped into details about the Total Potemkin exhibition at the Barn, 15-28 February 2014, Oxford. Def can not make it to the organic location, but can do the digital blurb site.. Am reflecting re seemingly minor elements in the content form as a way to imagine reflection with the way, I think, the exhibition is […]

data on the web is too static

for the internet? Following the day we fight back‘s instance in brighton, some thoughts came to me regarding critique of how we do stuff. It seems for me, that at least to some partial extent, the ability of entities like google to use our content/data is precisely because We tend to imagine the data in […]

surfing and searching surfing eternality searching?

Was checking past stuff at eternal internet brotherhood’s art and artists past gatherings, and bumped into: searching-is-not-surfing Seems to be by manifestoforthehivemind Looks very new aesthetics. However, perhaps the usage of terms – surfing and searching – kind of brought me back to 90’s when interneting was surfing.. I recall doing lots with layers and […]

pop up clusters in cairo?

had a look at the call out.. perhaps could be fun to go lofi with rfids and sticks on a swarm? eg self publishing by contradiction..? where the self and the coomons meets// there is a collision.. even in the peaceful ways..?

signify effects meaning value less values of meanings?

Feeling very uncomfortable with meanings and signifiers.. I think that sure, there are ripples, resonances, effects that link in time with stuff done, but not all consequences and most are seen because of other elements than what seems to be “cause”.. ie cause and effect are baseless logical pattern for Value generation, rather than hard […]
