Huyghe may be the hottest artist in France at the moment ...

 

but I'm not a fan of video art and when the descriptive texts are often more "artistic" than the art itself, I find the latter more interesting.

 

Here we see room 1 of the exhibition "liminal" in the Punta della Dogana and I found the curation poor.

 

In this first room I bumped into an edge in the dark. The rooms were only as bright as the aquariums and video films provided light.

 

It would have been better to let people gradually get used to the darkness from room to room, coming from the bright light of Venice.

 

Making Tadao Ando visible was difficult.

 

ROOM 1 Liminal, 2024. Real time simulation,

sound, sensors / Estelarium, 2024. Basalt / Portal, 2024. Brass pole with environ-

mental sensors, camera, micro, sound, light, solar panel, real time recording and

emitting

 

Liminal, 2024

The liminal milieu exists as a sensitive membrane being both a space

and a human form.

The hollow human form, without brain, without face, and

without world, moves on an infinite and plane surface, surrounded by

the void.

Liminal is a transitional state between our sensible reality

and an inhuman entity, both affecting each other through the human

form, that becomes a “passeur,” an oracular figure.

Liminal is an empty vessel receiving invisible information in

real time through sensors present in the physical environment, or stimuli

from the outside. The human form makes subtle gestures, a language

which is read by the inhuman entity. In reaction to these gestures, the

inhuman entity responds by imparting different behaviors to the human

form.

The inhuman entity evolves as it searches for stimuli, as it

learns. Its memory is thus amplified over time, beyond the exhibition

and the human realm.

A brain organoid located in a lab made of few synthetic neural

circuits, gives the human form a residual sensory function. As a gate

keeper, subject to pain, the human form rejects unwanted information,

thus influencing the learning process of the inhuman entity.

Liminal therefore is an experiment, the simulation of a specu-

lative human condition.

Huyghe mag zur zeit der wohl angesagteste Künstler frankreichs sein ...

 

aber ich bin kein Freund von Video-Kunst und wenn die beschreibenden Texte oft "künstlerischer" sind, als die Kunst selbst, finde ich zweiteres interessanter.

 

Wir sehen hier Raum 1 der Ausstellung "liminal" in der Punta della Dogana und ich fand die Kuration schlecht. In diesem ersten Raum stieß ich im Dunkeln gegen eine Kante. Die Räume waren nur so hell, wie Aquarien und Videofilme gerade Licht spendeten.

 

Ich habe hier ein Bild gemacht à la Hänsel und Gretel verirrten sich im Wald ...

 

Man hätte die Menschen, von dem hellen Licht Venedigs kommend, besser sukzessive von Raum zu Raum an die Dunkelheit gewöhnen lassen sollen.

 

Tadao Ando sichtbar zu machen, war schwer.

 

RAUM 1 Liminal, 2024. Echtzeitsimulation,

Ton, Sensoren / Estelarium, 2024. Basalt / Portal, 2024. Messingstange mit Umweltsensoren, Kamera, Mikro, Ton, Licht, Solarpanel, Echtzeitaufzeichnung und

-emission

 

Liminal, 2024

Das liminale Milieu existiert als empfindliche Membran, die sowohl ein Raum

als auch eine menschliche Form ist.

Die hohle menschliche Form, ohne Gehirn, ohne Gesicht und

ohne Welt, bewegt sich auf einer unendlichen und ebenen Oberfläche, umgeben von

der Leere.

Liminal ist ein Übergangszustand zwischen unserer sinnlichen Realität

und einer unmenschlichen Entität, die sich beide durch die menschliche

Form gegenseitig beeinflussen, die zu einem „Passeur“, einer Orakelfigur wird.

Liminal ist ein leeres Gefäß, das unsichtbare Informationen in

Echtzeit durch Sensoren in der physischen Umgebung oder Reize

von außen empfängt. Die menschliche Form macht subtile Gesten, eine Sprache,

die von der unmenschlichen Entität gelesen wird. Als Reaktion auf diese Gesten reagiert das unmenschliche Wesen, indem es der menschlichen Form verschiedene Verhaltensweisen vermittelt. Das unmenschliche Wesen entwickelt sich, während es nach Reizen sucht und lernt. Sein Gedächtnis wird so im Laufe der Zeit über die Ausstellung und den menschlichen Bereich hinaus verstärkt. Ein Gehirnorganoid in einem Labor, das aus wenigen synthetischen neuronalen Schaltkreisen besteht, verleiht der menschlichen Form eine Restsensorfunktion. Als Torwächter, der Schmerzen ausgesetzt ist, lehnt die menschliche Form unerwünschte Informationen ab und beeinflusst so den Lernprozess des unmenschlichen Wesens. Liminal ist daher ein Experiment, die Simulation eines spekulativen menschlichen Zustands.

The following descriptive text was written by the artist, Martin Travers. Travers painted this outstanding mural in 2002 on a wooden fence in Balmy Alley, the Mission District, San Francisco, California

____________________________________________

“NAYA BIHANA” is about communities taking their power back into their own hands, reclaiming what is theirs, utilizing the natural resources of their communities. The resources that have been taken from them for hundreds of years which have made Europe and North America so rich whilst keeping the rest of the world in dire poverty.

 

This mural depicts a community that has resisted and is reclaiming its power. The broken chains symbolize the breaking away from the imperial policies of the West and its financial institutions like the World Bank, IMF and the G8.

 

Nepal was chosen as the subject for this mural because it is one of the poorest countries in the world in which the poorest of them are rising up to regain their dignity and move Nepal into a state of self sufficiency and to determine their own future. Although I chose Nepal to represent an example of people struggling to be self sufficient, it could really be many other places in the world facing similar problems.

Dhanyakuria is a non descriptive village, near Barasat, about 40 km from Kolkata.

 

The non descriptive village houses some magnificent palaces belonging to the Gayen, Ballav, Sahoo and Mondal families.

 

Out of these the Gayen Bagan Bari of the Gayen Castle stands out.

 

The Cinderella styled castle is complete with towers and turrents, flanked by battlements and projected oriole windows.

 

Presently it is in sorry state with and have lost most of its ornamentation. The landscaped garden, with decorative fountains, which surrounded the castle is overgrown with grasses and weeds.

 

A detailed blog post on the Palaces of Dhanyakuria will be comming up soon in my blog.

 

A special thanks to my friend and fellow heritage enthusiast for arranging the necessary permission.

This descriptive plaque is located near the entrance to the carousel, with the river in the background.

 

I suppose it was just an accident of the way the sun was shining on it, but I thought the reflection was pretty cool ...

 

*******************************

 

Because I work and live in Manhattan, I don’t often visit the four other boroughs of New York City … but there’s a magical place in Brooklyn that I want to tell you about, located in Brooklyn Bridge Park at the edge of the East River. It’s right on the water, framed by the Manhattan Bridge on the north and the Brooklyn Bridge on the south. A few NYC residents and perhaps even a few visitors are already nodding their heads as they read this, but I suspect that most readers of these Flickr notes are as oblivious as I was, and have never heard of Jane’s Carousel.

 

“Jane” is, as I’ve now learned, Jane Walentas, an artist who spent 20 years overseeing the restoration of a magnificent 48-horse carousel, created by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company, and first installed in a park in Youngstown, Ohio in 1922. Ms. Walentas and her husband, David, bought the carousel and the wooden horses at an auction in 1984 for $385,000; I have no idea what inspired them to do so, or what could possibly have inspired Jane to spend the next 20 years scraping off layers of paint and restoring the original design and colors, the pin-striping and the gold leaf as the carousel sat in a studio in Dumbo (for the non-New Yorkers who might have stumbled onto this page of notes, “DUMBO” is an acronym that means “Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass).

 

Anyway, the carousel was opened in mid-September 2011, and for reasons unknown, I was completely oblivious as to its existence for the next three years. It’s located in a $9 million transparent acrylic “jewel box” that was designed by the French architect Jean Novel, and it’s absolutely stunning to see. My wife coaxed me into taking the somewhat laborious subway ride from the Upper West Side (via the “C” and the “F” trains) over to Brooklyn a couple days ago, and we were lucky to have chosen a brilliantly sunny Saturday afternoon, arriving just at the beginning of the “golden hour” when the light was perfect for photography.

 

In the three years since it opened, Jane’s Carousel has apparently attracted a lot of attention: there were some New Yorkers like me wandering around, and some visitors from nearby New Jersey and Long Island … but I also heard and saw evidence of visitors from France, Germany, Russia, Japan, Korea, and a lot of other places which would normally have great difficulty distinguishing Brooklyn from the Bronx or Staten Island. You can arrange birthday parties at the carousel; and there were heavily-costumed bridal parties along with the dog-walkers, the photographers, and the tour boats (including the venerable Circle Line) cruising up and down the East River.

 

And speaking of the East River, one of the most dazzling aspects of this place is the view that you get, with the two mammoth bridges spanning the river, along with the Wall Street skyline, the South Street Seaport, and the massive Freedom Tower in the background. Even if you didn’t spend a minute looking at the brightly painted carousel horses, and listening to the hypnotic music of the carousel, you could easily spend the afternoon watching the tugboats and sailboats and barges and ferries, the cruise boats and the motorboats chugging up and down the river. One can only imagine what it must have been like a century ago, before the railroads and jet planes had eliminated the bulk of water travel.

 

I’m embarrassed that it took me so long to visit this place, and I hope that you’ll take the hint and go see it yourself, at your first opportunity. If you would like to see some more details about the place, you might want to start with the official website for Jane’s Carousel, located here:

The Arundel Society was founded at London in 1849 and named after the Earl of Arundel, the famous collector of the Arundel Marbles and one of the first great English patrons and lovers of the arts. The society's purpose was to promote knowledge of the art works of the old Italian, Flemish, and other European masters. Much of the work of the society consisted of publishing chromolithographs of Italian art works, especially fresco paintings, of earlier centuries and raising public awareness for the preservation of these works. The society was discontinued in 1897.

From a descriptive text on Germany's 1950s industrial reconstruction a rather fine view of the post-war reconstruction of the Germania Colliery in Dortmund-Marten, that belonged to the post-war grouping of the G.B.A.G. that had been spun out of the pre-war giant Vereinigte Stahlwerke AG. The company was one of the true giants of the deep coal mining business and operated some large collieries in the Ruhr district around Essen and Gelsenkirchen, shafts being organised so as to best utilise reserves that were both relatively easy to 'win' along with ones that were of more meager output.

 

I probably need some one with local knowledge but I'm wondering of one of the structures we see here is the headframes now relocated to the German Mining Museum at Bochum when the Germania complex closed in 1971?

 

The Museum's headframes. that stood over the main shaft of the Germania mine complex in Dortmund-Marten. Designed by renowned industrial architects, Fritz Schupp and Martin Kremmer, this solid-walled double headframe was constructed in 1943-44.

#548: As of 1/10/19, under Flickr's popularity rankings of my 1400+ pics, this is listed as #548 in "interestingness."

 

I've been engaging in some short, private crossdressing opportunities at home recently, after acquiring and trying out some new clothes, shoes, and accessories. This is the 75th pic posted from this recent CD activity, and taken just a few weeks ago.

 

As usual, I really enjoy color-coordinating attractive/sexy/cute outfits, and this one features a spaghetti-strap low-cut pink mini-dress topped with a pink/white kimono cardigan (both inexpensive from Target!), and accompanied by pink suede high heel booties, and a complementary belt, purse, scarf, and jewelry.

 

More about this and other new 2017 pics was written up recently in a descriptive Update provided in my profile or "About" page here on Flickr. It details some choices made for these 2017 pics.

 

Let me know your thoughts... :-)

 

P.S. As far as the picture setting here, this is on the deck of our home. I'm using the glass patio door as a mirror (fuzziness related to glass not cleaned in some time), aided with a black sheet hung right inside the door, although some of the wrinkles in the sheet may be detected in the image here.

Please be cautious: This is a gruesome, descriptive story.

Okay, enjoy.

 

My eyes widen and flit to the door as the knob turns and opens, letting in a slit of light. I squint against the gleam shining from the metal carelessly tossed about the small, low-ceilinged room. My heartbeat quickens and pounds; feels like it’s about to burst out of my chest. I wriggle and try to scream as he walks toward the table, but silver duck tape stops the yell at my my throat; metal chains restrain my legs and arms. Still, I fight against the rusted iron and tears slip from my eyes in frustration.

 

An amused glint shines in his eyes as he slowly cranks a lever that tightens my arms against the cool surface. He grabs a sharp, silver object I can’t name from a small shelf that lies against the wall. I try to shake my legs free to no avail. He takes his time walking around the table until he comes to a stop above my right my arm. More tears fall from my eyes as I stare into his cold, silver irises. I know I need to calm down, but another scream that feels like it rises from my feet, tries to tear through my closed lips.

 

My hands hang limp at the edge of the table from lack of blood, and he presses the sharp object against my arm, sliding it down the slick skin until he reaches the edge of my palm. He stays there for a few minutes, letting me take in my surroundings. My eyes flit from his face, the sharp object, around the darkness, and back. I can see the outline of an old lamp by a glazed window from the corner of my eye. I start to turn my head to the left, but stop in a sudden shock of pain that radiates from my wrist and scream a muffled scream.

 

He carves a deformed F into the thick skin, sending waves of pain that makes me thrash around with silenced screams. My thoughts scatter as my mind focuses on that one point of reality.

His lips form a smirk while he continues to tear apart my skin, shoving the infected metal deep with brute force. I try to sit still; moving is just making myself get worse wounds. Tears pool around the unyielding tape covering my mouth. Seconds, minutes of unbearable pain passes, feeling like a century. Why am I not passing out? Please. Let me pass out, I think.

 

But before my prayer can be granted, he stops and laughs. My screams turn into whimpers, and I look from his disgust-filled eyes to my arm. My eyes widen as I take in the word, the scars that will always be with me; FREAK. He throws the blood-stained metal piece onto my chest and walks to the door with heavy thumps. He turns and looks at me with those silver eyes I once thought were kind, caring, beautiful.

 

“Freak.”

 

And with that, he shuts the door and leaves me alone in the damp room. I lay there, resisting the dark that threatens to over take me. But as the seconds pass, I get weaker and weaker from loss of blood. So I let the burning pain and cold silence drag me into the uncaring darkness. I let my mind go numb and the tears spill over with a wretched sob..

 

I stay there, laying in a world of black pain.

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Don't worry, I don't think I'm a freak and I don't usually write things like this.

But, this was a dream I had a few nights ago. I guess you can call it a nightmare lol

It felt real though, and even though I usually forget everything, I remembered this with perfect clarity. So I decided to write it up as a story and share it with the Flickr community.

Hope I didn't creep you out too much ;) ♥
