A great work of remix culture.

(via.) Artist Shea Hembrey in the midst of planning to curate a biennale, decides that instead of traveling the world to find art for his exhibition, it would be easier if he just made up names and biographies for 100 artists and did all the work himself. The work must be about what he could explain to his grandma in less than five minutes. And its process must engage the three “H’s” of head, heart, and hand.
Crazy, genius, funny, and really, really good. Moreover, did selling art to the public look ever more simple? Great artists, even minimal in peak talent need little convincing. Now go out there creating art people..

Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit.

A nice example how power of a shopkeeper goes over the will of the city inhabitants. More importantly, city counsil shows amazing disrespect for its role to listen to what the citizens want. Shops you can get anywhere, especially if they are already there.. why kill your city space and little green for it?

Using 3-D video-mapping technology, the guys at Mr. Beam were able to transform a plain white living room filled with plain white furniture into whatever kind of fancily decorated living room they desired by projecting different patterns onto the various elements.
We created an unique physical 3D video mapping experience by turning a white living room into a spacious 360° projection area. This technique allowed us to take control of all colors, patterns and textures of the furniture, wallpapers and carpet. All done with 2 projectors.

Progressive (provoking) artists nowadays need to deal with the soft power -stop signs in our head- as oppose to explicit signs and rules in public, if they want to get their message out. This is much harder than it seems.
But it can be done. Grenzfurthner shows with an example, which remind me of the YES-man trick, but his point is much broader than the YES-man. Enjoy.
