What quickly became clear upon making this map of New York was that this data could serve as a lens not only for viewing the different candidates but for looking at the world in general. It also became clear that the principle of locality was as applicable as ever.
The Associated Press reported that the most requested online definition last year was "blog"...in regard to "reBlog": What is the relationship between original content blogged versus mediated content-reblogged? How many links are there? What are the limits of this work and what can be preserved within these boundaries?
Nobody can tell me what it's like to be a synaesthete. Even computer animations—and the fact that we have these form constants that what we see is very simple, conceptually, blobs and lines and movement and colors and stuff- you think it would be easy to describe; and yet, they can’t.
Synaesthesia, the advent of video, the sound/image relationship and the blurring of sensory boundaries in an interview with Eyebeam AIRs LoVid by Dusted Magazine's Matt Wellin.
How do we gain an understanding of a medical disease through the visual interpretation of data?
I started to use the monstrous or difference as a metaphor from the seventeenth century up until now and looked at the ways in which culturally, the monster is indicative of particular attitudes from that time. I looked at the developments that were happening scientifically and medically, and how the monster was treated accordingly.
When loom technology was developed, there was a mathematician, Ada Lovelace, who analyzed looms and was able to conceptualize the potential of binary code for calculations.
"That’s where microRevolt comes from. It’s trying to encourage educational, participatory and creative small acts of resistance."
A girlfriend of mine recently told me that when she sees her boyfriend's phone number on her phone's caller ID window, she has an instantaneous sexual response.
Eyebeam Artist-in-Resident Bec Stupak & Beth Rosenberg, Part II of II. "There’s nothing I hate more than going to a museum and it’s a black box that’s meant to represent no space around the video; or looking at something in a monitor, with headphones on, I find to be really confining."
"Somehow all our new and old media, and all our perversely tourist-friendly cities have to be re-imagined, in a vision as thorough as what Jefferson, Hamilton and Madison had to work with in the late eighteenth century."
Eyebeam Artist-in-Resident Bec Stupak & Beth Rosenberg, Part I of II. "I guess the nature of my work and my projects is very chameleon, because there are a lot of different aspects that they take on."
Only technology, the gadgetry of our culture easily changes shape—shapeshifts-- almost every year. The novel, the movie, the video game, theater, TV, museum curating, and dozens of other cultural forms might as well have been carved on stone and left to weather up on Mount Sinai.
