Per questo Edition of 25 motivo, la raccolta di testi qui presentata e una serie di video Turin, November 2016 proiettati sabato 5 novembre a Palazzo Saluzzo di Paesana Design and print by riusciranno forse, se non certamente a esaurire la notevole Fabrizio Cosenza portata dell’argomento, quantomeno a documentare parte delle maggiori riflessioni scaturite negli ultimi anni del dibattito Texts by Alex Williams e Nick Srnicek contemporaneo. Tiziana Terranova Teorizzato nel 2013 da Nick Srnicek e Alex Williams, Matteo Pasquinelli l’Accelerazionismo è stato immediatamente accolto dal Valerio Mattioli sentire comune non solo per le idee esposte nel suo Manifesto, ma soprattutto per la riconsiderazione del futuro, messo da parte negli ultimi da una spinta di diffusa Retromania. Criticando l’atteggiamento intellettuale di passiva analisi critica dell’accademismo odierno, tale pensiero ha spinto all’esigenza di ripensare, con una prospettiva rivolta al nuovo, alla possibilità di cambiare ciò che Adam Curtis ha chiamato hyper normalization. Ancor prima di parlare di tecnologia, l’Accelerazionismo apre gli occhi sull’attività che scandisce e definisce la nostra quotidianità: il lavoro.

  • Silent Stage Qwartz (P.8-9) WART Z Live Set Privés Au Casque Pour 50 Personnes Max
    Le QWARTZ PRIX DU GÉNIE MUSICAL PIERRE HENRY GrimaldiOrélie De l’autre côté de la musique Pour commencer, puisqu’il faut bien, on pourrait évoquer ce qu’est une rencontre et en particulier celle-ci. Qu’est-ce donc de rencontrer Pierre Henry et sa musique ? A n’en pas douter une émotion singulière pour ne pas dire rare que certains ont pu vivre au cœur de l’église Saint-Eustache ou ailleurs. Et là, on se rend compte que le verbe entendre ne suffit déjà plus pour fixer cet instant. Disons alors l’aventure que fut « La bête ». Mais s’exposer au travers de cet artiste ce n’est pas invoquer Pierre Henry et son génie. Oui, osons ce terme puisque le prix l’indique déjà. Et Pierre Henry fait partie de ces rares personnes où les détours sont proscrits. Ainsi, n’en prenons pas pour « dire » et honorer son geste. Puisqu’avant même la musique, l’œuvre de Pierre Henry fut une nouvelle syntaxe, une grammaire peut-être, et toujours une absolue modernité. Pierre Henry arpente depuis des décennies un silence et on imagine qu’il lui rend ses bruits. Il est en quelque sorte son hors champs et sa quête. On suppose que sa musique procède d’une insuffisance plus que d’une insatisfaction. Il manque toujours quelque chose et à ce quelque chose. A ce manque Pierre Henry lui peint ses mots. N’est-ce pas le signe des créateurs de génie de nous emporter dans un autre langage, de nous détourner de notre imaginaire et ainsi de transformer notre vision du monde ? Et, de cette lumière aux allures de foudre, ce monde en a besoin.

Reddy's practice aims to catalyze spiritual catharsis through aesthetic encounter, drawing on his parallel professional practice as a healer. The Tabernacle, his installation at MOCAD, incarnates a sacred space within the secular walls of the museum, problematizing the physical and conceptual demarcation between holy and profane. PERFORMANCE: True East PERFORMANCE: The Sound of My Voice FAMILY DAY: Sandpainting and Mandala Making Video interview with the artist FINAL WEEKS ­ CLOSING SOON James Lee Byars: I Cancel All My Works At Death On view through May 4, 2014 I Cancel All My Works at Death is the first comprehensive survey of the plays, actions, and performances of James Lee Byars (Detroit 1932 ­ Cairo 1997). Spanning the period from 1960 (when he created his first action in Kyoto, Japan) to 1981 (when de Appel arts centre in Amsterdam presented a year­long survey), the exhibition, which is titled after Byars' now­famous speech act, adopts the premise that the artist and his work are better mis­remembered than re­experienced. I Cancel All My Works at Death therefore presents none of his actual performances; nor does it include objects made, owned, or used by him, nor vintage ephemera­­with the exception of obituaries published in newspapers at the time of his death.

    2018: Against Worldbuilding Fight The Snob Art of the Social Climbers! tinymixtapes.com/features/2018-against-worldbuilding By Nick James Scavo · December 13, 2018 Tweet Tech evangelist Robert Scoble taking a shower while wearing now-defunct Google Glass. We celebrate the end of the year the only way we know how: through lists, essays, and mixes. Join us as we explore the music that helped define the year. More from this series In 2018, do we laud our creations enough to call them worlds? As we turn the knob of a Breville BOV650XL toaster oven and scrape strawberry jam over the 1,000 nooks and crannies of an english muffin, are we vain enough to proclaim a new world? Our special individuality suggests that our world is made up of billions of particular worlds. Our bizarre social ingenuity demonstrates that there is a world-network that compartmentalizes, associates, and connects them. All the while, there is an infinite amount of quantum worlds swirling in microcosm beneath the starry sky of an equally infinite macrocosm. Within this reflected infinity, exactly which worlds did we build? Or are we merely at war with an existing world in an effort to proclaim a more profound one — one distinctly of our making? Must we devour the multiplicity of worlds to build even one solitary one? Are we worldeaters or worldbuilders? 1/19 We look up from our world, the planet Earth, and our curiosity bores into the expanse of non- living worlds circling around us. Yet, even our centuries of research and recent astronautics can’t seem to reveal a single discovery other than a plentitude of dead worlds.

Pulling from a wide range of influences—synth sounds, television commercials, classical minimalism, and high-end audio production—Lopatin condenses the disparate sounds to form music that slopes forward with self-contained narratives. Oneohtrix Point Never performs new music with visuals from his upcoming album.
