Olafur Eliasson (Surroundings, surrounded)

2008-12-09T09:47:00.000-08:00

By means of cultural techniques, he transforms natural processes (the waterfall flows upward instead of down). In this way, nature becomes, hypothetically, a product of civilization. Surroundings are not folded inward, but rather encircled from the outside.

I landed a show in the springtime. Manufacturing of the traps is going well so far.
Here are 3 of the 10 that I have painted at this point. Still need to make the hardware for the traps. Still need to get in the studio for sound recording. Still need to work with my pal Yiu-Hong on the video projection. The dimensions of the traps are 12" X 24"

things marjane satrapi said

2008-04-09T12:37:00.000-07:00

1. the first thing she said when looking out at the sold-out audience at the shcnizter was, "i'm scared".

2. "democracy does not mean that the people are represented" in an obvious reference to the bush admin. when asked what she thinks of americans

3. when asked what she thought of smoking bans, she quoted joe strummer; "“Nonsmokers should be banned from buying any product a smoker created, which includes most art, because what artist doesn't smoke'? (or something to that extent...

4. when asked who she wanted for the next american president, she replied, " as much as i would like to see a woman in the american presidency, i am pulling for obama. hillary is too much of a politician, the world needs to deal with obama when dealing with america. it's about time this country had a smart, diplomatic representative for president."

More Performance Art

2007-10-14T15:49:00.000-07:00

On Friday, October 12th I attended yet another mind altering dance performance piece by Tahni Holt and Co. The piece is titled "Endless Ocean, Endless Sky" . I am not quite sure what their long-term plans are for the show, but if you happen to see an advertisment for this joint, go fucking see it. It will change the way you look at performance art.

The dome you see in the second picture is made of some sort of poly, and holds ten audience members at a time, plus 1-3 performers. What happens for the next hour + is a beautiful witches brew of light and sound sculpture, dance performance, and breath-taking conceptual alchemy. I look forward to seeing more from this Portland based troupe...find them at:

kind words/ a break from rituaL

2007-09-21T15:17:00.000-07:00

Hi there everyone,

I know that not everyone who checks out my blog lives in Portland, but I just wanted to mention that if you ever find yourself near the Portland city limits during the TBA Festival, please do yourself a huge favor and either volunteer for PICA, or buy tickets to every bloody event that you can afford. Here is a list of the performances that I attended over the course of the last two weeks:

Marc "Bamuti" Joseph- The Living Word Project: the break/s (Work in Progress)
Donna Uchizono Dance Co. (Baryshnikov was part of this one)
William Kentridge- 9 Drawings for Projection
Teeth-Normal and Happy
Kassys- Komer
Hand2Mouth Theater- Repeat After Me
Portland Cello Project
Young Jean Lee's Theater Company- Songs of the Dragons Flying to Heaven
Fred Frith

If I can find the time/ motivation, I might write a review or two...

p.s.- feel free to contact me if you want the lowdown on any of this.
p.p.s.- http://www.pica.org/tba/tba07/default.aspx

Peace, love, and birdsong,
-David
