  • Development News Highlights MANHATTAN - MID-1ST QUARTER 2020 PLUS an OUTER BOROUGH SNAPSHOT Looking Ahead
    Development News Highlights MANHATTAN - MID-1ST QUARTER 2020 PLUS AN OUTER BOROUGH SNAPSHOT Looking Ahead Climate Mobilization Act’s Local Law 97: The Next Steps In April 2019 New York City enacted what has been described as “representing some of the most ambitious climate legislation enacted by any large municipality in the world to date.” The centerpiece of the (9) bill Climate Mobilization Act signed by Mayor de Blasio on Earth Day is Local Law 97 (LL97) which will require buildings citywide that exceed 25,000 square feet to begin reducing carbon emissions relative to 2005 base year levels by 2024, with reductions of 40% by calendar year 2030, and 80% by calendar year 2050. A New York City Climate Advisory Board was reportedly appointed by the mayor in December as per the law; and its members represent “a broad cross-section of real estate, environmental and organizational expertise” according to reports. The board has been tasked with putting together a report “addressing all manner of questions around just how LL97 will work — ranging from how landlords should report emissions data to how the city should penalize owners for non-compliance to how it might structure an emission offset program.” Although the board’s recommendations to be outlined in a report and delivered to the mayor and speaker by the start of 2023 aren’t legally binding, they are “expected to be influential, especially given how many of the law’s finer points remain to be nailed down.” Some cited examples of the difficult issues to be addressed, which weren’t completely sorted out include: • How exactly building owners will be instructed to calculate and report their properties’ carbon emissions, for instance: – Accounting for tenant space that was unoccupied in a building during the year they were reporting, which is going to impact calculations and could, in this case, skew results and deliver an inaccurate representation of how the building is being used.

  • Broadcasting the Bedroom: Intimate Musical Practices and Collapsing Contexts on Youtube
    Broadcasting the bedroom: Intimate musical practices and collapsing contexts on YouTube Maarten Michielse In an era of social media and online participation, uploading a personal video to a platform such as YouTube appears to be an easy and natural activity for large groups of users.i Various discourses on online narcissism and exhibitionism (Balance, 2012; Keen, 2007, 2012; Twenge and Campbell, 2010) give the impression that current generations have become extremely comfortable (perhaps even too comfortable) with the online possibilities of self-exposure and self-representation (Mallan, 2009). As I will argue in this chapter, however, this is largely a misrepresentation of the everyday struggles and experiences of online participants. For many, posting a video on YouTube is a rather ambivalent activity: joyful and fun at times, but also scary and accompanied by feelings of insecurity, especially when the content is relatively delicate. This shows itself perhaps most clearly in a particular genre of online videos: the ‘musical bedroom performance’. On YouTube, this genre has become a popular trope in the last couple of years. In these videos, a person sings and/or plays a musical instrument in front of the camera from the private sphere of the home. As Jean Burgess (2008) argues, the musical bedroom performance ‘draws on the long traditions of vernacular creativity articulated to ‘privatised’ media use’ (p. 107).ii Historically, the bedroom has functioned as a crucial site for cultural expression and experimentation. This is especially true for teenagers and young adults, for whom the bedroom is, as Sian Lincoln (2005) writes, a domain ‘in which they are able to exert some control, be creative and make that space their own’ (p.

  • This Book Is a Compendium of New Wave Posters. It Is Organized Around the Designers (At Last!)
    “This book is a compendium of new wave posters. It is organized around the designers (at last!). It emphasizes the key contribution of Eastern Europe as well as Western Europe, and beyond. And it is a very timely volume, assembled with R|A|P’s usual flair, style and understanding.” –CHRISTOPHER FRAYLING, FROM THE INTRODUCTION 2 artbook.com French New Wave A Revolution in Design Edited by Tony Nourmand. Introduction by Christopher Frayling. The French New Wave of the 1950s and 1960s is one of the most important movements in the history of film. Its fresh energy and vision changed the cinematic landscape, and its style has had a seminal impact on pop culture. The poster artists tasked with selling these Nouvelle Vague films to the masses—in France and internationally—helped to create this style, and in so doing found themselves at the forefront of a revolution in art, graphic design and photography. French New Wave: A Revolution in Design celebrates explosive and groundbreaking poster art that accompanied French New Wave films like The 400 Blows (1959), Jules and Jim (1962) and The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964). Featuring posters from over 20 countries, the imagery is accompanied by biographies on more than 100 artists, photographers and designers involved—the first time many of those responsible for promoting and portraying this movement have been properly recognized. This publication spotlights the poster designers who worked alongside directors, cinematographers and actors to define the look of the French New Wave. Artists presented in this volume include Jean-Michel Folon, Boris Grinsson, Waldemar Świerzy, Christian Broutin, Tomasz Rumiński, Hans Hillman, Georges Allard, René Ferracci, Bruno Rehak, Zdeněk Ziegler, Miroslav Vystrcil, Peter Strausfeld, Maciej Hibner, Andrzej Krajewski, Maciej Zbikowski, Josef Vylet’al, Sandro Simeoni, Averardo Ciriello, Marcello Colizzi and many more.
