Augmented Virtuality: The Beast
TODAY: I’d like to address a revolutionary advertising campaign that caused the Internet to withdraw from the realm of reality, and exposed the nature of mediation.
The “A.I. webgame”, code named “The Beast” by its creators, was an online murder-mystery which was played for a 12 week period in the spring of 2001. The game took the form of a network of...

The Human Use of Human Beings: Your World of Text...
“As entropy increases, the universe, and all closed systems in the universe, tend naturally to deteriorate and lose their distinctiveness, to move from the least to the most probable state, from a state of organization and differentiation in which distinctions and forms exist, to a state of chaos and sameness. […] But while the universe as a whole, if indeed there is a whole universe,...
Library of Babel: Your World of Text
“The mystics claim that their ecstasy reveals to them a circular chamber containing a great circular book, whose spine is continuous and which follows the complete circle of the walls; but their testimony is suspect; their words, obscure. This cyclical book is God.” - Borges
The WWW as we know it is a cinematic guise of simulated order masking the electric exchange of raw...

MH: And yet, you chose, a 35mm camera to do that why didn’t you work with a larger format camera, like so many of the New Topographic photographers did?
LB: Oh, I’m a lazy bastard and hate carrying around large, heavy equipment. I know myself well enough to know if I had to stop the car and get out to set up a 4x5 camera I’d probably talk myself out of doing anything. Plus for...

NOAH VENEZIA THE RAINBOW WEBSITE (2006)
The Rainbow Website uses the entire browser window to code a continuous animation of the seven major spectral colors in the rainbow. The colors gently fade between the layers from Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet, and back again on a loop. The color selections derive not only from the HTML codes needed for color visualization, but also the...

HOW CAN MEANINGFUL ART BE MADE NOW?
It was a very open period — the bottom of the art market after the crash. It’s surprising how fluid things are during these ‘difficult’ times…I was so well received there. They’d gone through the object-driven 1980s, and young artists were really not interested in that any more; they were questioning why or how we exhibit at all and how objects can still be...

It’s hard to have fun in January when it’s very very cold outside. I need to learn that layering 3 pairs of tight isn’t enough, I should be layering 5 pairs. Or i should just buy some thermals!!!

I am watching Jersey Shore, (like every other American) and I’m hooked. My...

Today has been a very busy day, in the laziest way. I was super groggy from hanging out with Kaylie and Bryan til late late late with lots of beer beer beer in my bod.

But it’s 4:20 right now, which means…

Spring 2010 for red and purple!
Purple is the new black
Red is the new navy
Purple and red will rule the universe come Spring 2010.
I’m serious.
I haven’t wanted to wear red or purple in forever and now, I’m all about both colors… but I’m not ready for them yet! No I don’t want them til Spring 2010!
Maybe it’s because of RosenMunns Spring 2010 collection, or the new red Arielle de Pinto...
Today's Best Choice
a trip down memory lane with Judith Scott
I watch a lot of TV when I get overwhelmed or stressed out. So I’ve been watching a lot of Dexter, (my new fave TV show)… When I first moved to NY it was True Blood that I was always watching, but that’s beside the point.
Back to Dexter. I’m on season 2. I have Netflix watch instantly. I didn’t even realize the greatness of watch instantly, til New Year’s day,...
