From March 1 to April 7, Eyebeam Fellow Mary Mattingly will undertake a live test of a(n in-process) Flock House living system at Eyebeam, living in the unit while building out and testing the power, food, and water systems in preparation for the project’s public launch in May 2012. Mary will host an event with Geoff Manaugh and the Urban Research Group in tandem with the exhibition on Thursday, March 1 from 6-8 PM, and an opening reception in conjunction with Taeyoon Choi on March 15th.

The Flock Houses consist of a group of sculptural, self-sufficient habitats that are interstitial, engaging with and dependent on the public at large. Moveable, expandable, able to attach to one another and the surrounding architecture, their movements will be choreographed throughout U.S.-based urban centers. They also represent informal cross-border notions of property and economy.

 

On Monday night, we went to check out Speedshow, an internet cafe takeover staged by Evan Roth (whose work is at MoMA for “Talk To Me”) and curated by Aram Bartholl (of Dead Drops). It surprised me that traditional style internet cafes still exist and this one at 90 Bowery is a throwback to those from the ’90s and early 2000s, with tons of kids playing first person shooter video games. It’s in the basement of the building down a narrow staircase, lending further mystique in a neighborhood known for its secret underground passageways.

Please join Not An Alternative, Eyebeam Art & Technology Center, and Upgrade! NY, this Thursday, June 10 for the opening of Re:Group: Beyond Models of Consensus, an exhibition which examines models of participation and participation as a model in art and activism.

 

INTRO TO TWO STATEMENTS:

Re:Group: Beyond Models of Consensus proposes that with participation now a dominant paradigm, structuring social interaction, art, activism, the architecture of the city, the internet, and the economy, we are all integrated into participatory structures whether we want to be or not. The exhibition showcases work that subverts existing systems or envisions new alternatives to the ways in which individuals can take part, or choose not to take part, in social and cultural life.

 

Just went to the [benefit] opening of Eyebeam’s Re:Group Show. Was amazed at the diverse showing of projects
