edit kaldor - point blank

Yesterday evening was definitely one of the inspiring one’s. I went to Point Blank in the Mousonturm with no idea what will happen, expect for some “clever use of software” in a performance. The performance was a girl talking, and showing photos:

“In Point Blank Edit Kaldor invites the 19-year-old Nada to present her large collection of photographs. For years she has been observing people, taking ’spy-photos’ of them, capturing their private moments. The core of Nada”s interest is to trace the various life-strategies that people follow. She wants to map out the options for herself. Driven by this curiosity, she becomes witness to a wide range of - at times excessive - human behaviour.
The performance is an occasion for Nada to structure and analyse her archive of possibilities. Together with the audience she contemplates the images, and looks for the implications and patterns that emerge. She aims to get a comprehensive overview and to reach a conclusion: the vision of a life worth pursuing.”
(from: description)

The combination of voyeurism (photos) and exhibitionism (her thoughts) was frightening and absorbing at the same time, Nada’s goal to find the set of rules for a lucky life is naive and lovely at the same time.
If you have the chance to see Point Blank, don’t miss it!

Rest in peace F12

After 1,5 years of VJing, fair construction sites and writing diploma (!), my laptop keyboard urgently needed a cleanup. For remembering the positions of the keys I took photos.

keyboard cleaning: before

I continued taking photos because I really enjoyed digging deeper in the basis of the number one man-machine interface - besides it really looks cool.

Unfortunately I broke my F12 key during the operation… but as I’m not a Mac user, I won’t cry.

gibt’s „brand synergy“ schon als buzzword? würde sich hier anbieten:

6 afraid of 7, cause 7 ate 9

hier kommt wieder einmal eine meiner seltenen musikempfehlungen (nicht aus mangel an guter musik, sondern auf grund massiver zeitnot): röyksopp – tricky tricky feat. karin dreijer (prelisten)

karin dreijer kennt sich mit zahlen (wie auch anders mit diesem namen) und vor allem mit musik gut aus, was sie bei „the knife“ ja schon häufig unter beweis gestellt hat. wer bei diesem hammertrack ruhig bleiben kann, dem ist wohl nicht zu helfen.

Urban Camouflage

Image

A very lovely project about camouflage and invisibility:

“Urban Camouflage deals with the question how to camouflage
oneself and one’s identity in the urban space. Our costumes are
inspired by the «ghillie suits», the military camouflage suit.”
