Confronting Homelessness

Anderson, Indiana (November 12, 2010) – This past Friday The Christian Center (TCC) and Alternatives, Inc. teamed together to host Reality Check, an overnight homelessness awareness and fundraising event in Anderson. Approximately 150 people spent the night, some sleeping in houses made from cardboard and using cardboard as their bed and blankets.
As of the last official count it was estimated that there were over 670,000 people who experience homelessness on any given day. In the Anderson, Indiana, Madison County area the best estimate of as to the number of homeless people is around 650 at any time according to Shayne Tacket, Operations Manager, at The Christian Center.
Homelessness has no boundaries when it comes to age, sex, or nationally. According to National Alliance to End Homelessness, measuring youth homelessness has been a major challenge; unfortunately, significant, seminal data on youth does not yet exist. While hard data isn’t available, the alliance estimates that young adults ages 18 to 25 make up 40 percent of street youth and about 33 percent of the total homeless youth population.
In today’s economy homelessness is becoming an even larger crisis for people of all ages and nationalities. Families that were once stable are finding themselves today with no place to go but to the streets. To make matters even worse is the fact that those trying to help, the shelters and soup kitchens, are being overwhelmed by the increased numbers of homeless and the decline in those who can help support their efforts everywhere.

This cool outdoors art installation by artist Vishal Dar adds a virtual layer over the landscape of the Marin Headlands, by using an augmented reality app on your smartphone. As you walk around former artillery batteries overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge, the Edge of See app overlays abstract light sculptures, or “engines,” that spin, turn, and tumble in response to the environment. This experimental art installation aims to push our senses of vision, scale, motion, and time.
And it’s a fun way to go hiking in the beautiful Marin Headlands. My son Adam and I could only see the first exhibit, before a huge storm descended on us and sent us back into our car. We headed back to Project Space at Headlands, where Dar gave us an overview of the project. He had installed wooden architectural models of the batteries that also displayed his virtual art with their app. Though this art form is still in early stages of development, I expect it will provide new transformative experiences in coming years.
This augmented reality (AR) technology offers a very promising new medium for artists, with a wider palette than virtual reality (VR). Instead of limiting yourself to VR's isolating experience, you get to play in both the physical and virtual worlds, which makes for a more social and multi-layered experience. That said, this art form has not yet reached its full potential, partly because it is trying to superimpose two worlds that are very different. Can’t wait to see where it evolves in coming years. Many thanks to Adam for introducing me to this new medium!

entro in camera e la tv è accesa...l'"isola dei famosi"...guardo per un po'...resto senza parole...spengo la tv per permettere al mio cervello di ricominciare a pensare...rifletto...mi viene in mente un film..."15 minuti, Follia omicida a New York"...quel pazzo di Andy Warhol aveva proprio ragione riguardo ai 15 minuti di celebrità che con ogni arma ognuno di noi in futuro avrebbe preteso...la tv è spenta già da un po' ma io continuo a fissare lo schermo nero...metto a fuoco...mi viene da ridere...mi prendo il mio secondo di celebrità...

"Considerando la meravigliosa complessità dell'universo, la sua strabiliante perfezione e il suo equilibrio tra materia, energia, gravità, tempo, dimensioni, io sono convinto che la nostra esistenza sia qualcosa di più di queste due filosofie, che quello che noi siamo vada oltre il sistema euclideo o gli altri sistemi pratici di misura e che la nostra esistenza sia parte di una realtà che va al di là di quella che noi, ora, concepiamo come realtà"
