TRANSFER — New York’s only net art gallery — has an opening tomorrow night that is relevant to your interests. Especially if your interests are large scale physical manifestations of digital work poppin’ GIFs like this… This is Lorna’s Loose Lips Sink Ships! GIF from Run Computer Run, but for TRASNFER it’s all new everything: The […]
One of the most recognizable logos in punk rock history and, likely, the most prominently tattooed band logo finally got a documentary. MoCA TV — We see you! Good stuff! — shows the history behind its origins in Art of Punk + Black Flag. Black Flag’s iconic “four bar” logo, loosely based on the concept of a waving flag, as originally designed […]
How would a computer perceive an act so non-technological as humans having sex? There’s no particular appeal in bare skin, genitalia, or penetration for a machine; pornography, like any other piece of digital media, is just a series of zeroes and ones translated into pixels and colors on a screen. But Spanish artist Alejandro Gomez-Arias […]
Every good organization deserves a good logo, so after ANIMAL profiled GooseWatch NYC earlier this week, we decided to do a little pro-bono, unsolicited design work for the volunteer group. In an attempt to curtail incidents of birds interfering with airplane flight, the City of New York and the USDA began slaughtering geese in NYC’s […]
UPDATE: The plot thickens. Artist and copyright subverter Richard Prince is a big fan of David Bowman’s futuristic, “hard-boiled comedy” Bunny Modern. He tweets about it a lot. He’s also a fan of deleting his tweets. Good thing we’re all over it. Recently, Prince has been teasing his followers about being up to “something” in Central Park. Yesterday, he […]
Each week in Sample Wars, we’ll pit two songs which sample the same source material head-to-head against each other, to determine which one rocked the sample better. Kanye West is on everyone’s mind these days–the Post gave Kimye top billing over Edward Snowden on its cover yesterday, and Jon Caramanica’s Kanye profile blew up the internet–so in anticipation […]
Artist/filmmaker Julian Schnabel is opening up a “community exhibition space” on the ground floor of his West Village home, as announced yesterday on Creative Time’s Tumblr. It’s called Casa del Popolo — roughly translated from Italian as “house of people. Schnabel says: This is the first installment of a program to show the work of other artists and an opportunity to collaborate with […]
We love Boogie. The Belgrade-born, Brooklyn-based photographer’s black-and-white photos and true grit and access has fascinated us for years. Then, he went color. Now he’s on that wet plate collodion on black plexiglass. Boogie’s ongoing DEMONS portraiture series is eerie and expressive, but it’s also a poised departure from his photojournalist style — Just click the tabs on his website: NYC, […]
Fucking christ, am I unpopular. There once was a time when I could send a tweet into the stratosphere with crossed fingers and a dream, convincing myself I was providing my followers with valuable with and insight, and if I included a link, that at least a handful of my few hundred followers would click on it.
