Backbone and allies like IVAW, GodePink and more utilized creative tactics to grab the media's attention and make our shared values more visible at the opening of the Bush presidential library and policy institute.

 

An administration whose failed policies and warmongering doesn't deserve a memorial, the fact that people laugh at the idea of a Bush Library is a testament to their folly. The Bush Lie-Bury is a reverse memorial to the 8 years (a following wake) of fallen lives and squandered opportunities that has led this country down such a terrible path.

 

By day, activists used bobble-head paper mache puppets rendered in the likeness of Bush, Cheney and the rest of his gang to force Dallas police to arrest them, giving us a cathartic if only symbolic relief. At night, activists agitated and inspired onlookers with light projections in downtown Dallas affirming and making our values visible. The creative tactics utilized earned the attention of the media who has largely ignored objections to the memorial.

Cycloide

 

by Alan Rose

 

Cycloide investigates the boundary between order and chaos.

 

Drawing heavily from minimalism and op art of the 60s, the geometric forms and repetition of the piece create subconscious order which is comfortable for the viewer, yet the moving colour and light is Rose’s way of disturbing the order with chaos.

GALAXIA II is a modern-day take on the aesthetics of ‘Optical Art’ of the 1960s, only this time with LED lighting as its contemporary medium.

 

Op Art is a perceptual experience that plays with how your vision functions, investigating the area between understanding and seeing. It exploits the functional relationship between the retina of your eye – the organ that ‘sees’ patterns – and your brain, the organ that interprets patterns. Certain visual stimuli can cause confusion between these two organs, resulting in the perception of irrational optical phenomena, something Op Artists used to full effect.

GALAXIA II plays with two perceptual phenomena: firstly the fact that colour is always interpreted by your brain in relation to its context, and secondly the way that the sculpture’s three-dimensional character results in a geometrical instability, especially when you move across the work.

Fractal

 

Artist: Patrick Girdler (Australia)

 

Fractal is a light sculpture with mirror-like skin and a crystalline form that reimagines the relationship between the audience and the urban environment, presenting it in two ways: the concave and the convex.

Artist Patrick Girdler uses the work to explore concepts of duality: inward and outward; reflection and refraction; introspective, examining what is within, and ‘extrospective’, seeing what is outside yourself.

Fractal is simultaneously about the individual and the city and examines the complex relationship between the two. Through reflection and ‘re-presentation’ it asks the audience to consider this relationship in new and unfamiliar ways.

Join the Rolling Rebellion for Real Democracy at RollingRebellion.org

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

IF you treasure the self-evident, endowed by creator, unalienable rights which the Declaration of Independence celebrated and promised this new country would uphold;

 

IF you abhor corporations claiming those unalienable rights as "corporate persons;" and think billionaires manipulating elections with their wealth is corrupting our democracy to the core;

 

THEN you probably agree that it is time to tap into the United States' revolutionary roots and in the spirit of the Declaration of Independence instigate a nonviolent American Revolution against oligarchic rule.

 

All across America, from New Hampshire to California, We the People are beginning to rise up in an autonomous, nonviolent, and rolling rebellion for real democracy. The Backbone Campaign, Popular Resistance, and other

allies have created Rolling Rebellion for Real Democracy with an action map and activist toolkits to bolster this burgeoning US Democracy Movement.

 

From the night of July 4th - July 12th, we are supporting a series of non-violent, artfully rebellious events around the country to get money out of politics, showcase the emergent US Democracy Movement, and spur on its escalating fight for real democracy. Check our action map to join a Rolling Rebellion action near you, or sign up to host your own.

"All across the state people are protesting a proposed coal export

terminal"- KHQ

TV News Station

 

"Environmentalists and other opponents of the terminal,

many of whom were dressed in red T-shirts, dominated public

testimony before a crowd of about 400."- Spokesman

Review

 

If Earned Media is any indication of of where we stand in the fight for

climate and environmental justice and a sustainable future against coal

exports, than the tide has turned in favor of activists and the

communities we strive to protect. The coal export battle is truly being

fought in the court of public opinion. Giant-sized sympathetic visuals

conveying the values we stand for and what threatens them, and an

engaging experience that helped communities feel a sense of shared power

were all prominent in the earned mainstream media coverage in Spokane

that included two television spots and the front page on their local

paper. The iconic imagery resonates so well that those in a position to

decide the regulations and even the coal export proponents were enamored

with it, excited, and joyful as they took pictures of and with it. We're

grateful to our supporters through whose support we're able to make sure

this critical flank of the fight is present to amplify, inspire, and

build engagement. If you are long to be a part of vibrant community

working to bring the world in closer harmony with your values, than join

Backbone Campaign, our

allies, and collaborators to build a powerful progressive movement.

 

Special thanks is owed to Spokane

Coalition Builders, and Occupy Spokane whose

dedicated engagement in their community and continued collaboration have

helped to reinvigorate engagement in the NW. The Power Past Coal

Coalition and Sierra Club have dedicated a ton of resources and energy

to mobilize the community to speak out at the hearings, with many other

community members from across the state and beyond sharing their talents

and gifts to make Fossil Fuel Foolishness a thing of the past.

Vivid Sydney is a unique winter festival of light, music, and ideas.

 

Vivid 2015 will run from the 22nd of May until the 8th of June 2015.

www.vividsydney.com/

  

Geometric Eye: Artist: Liam Filson

 

Geometric Eye is a large, ornate ‘eye’ that regards the city from its perch on the overpass leading to the Overseas Passenger Terminal. Participants interact with the installation, controlling the look and expression of the Eye so that it mirrors the feelings and excitement of the night.

 

The work is made from simple coloured LED strip-lights cleverly assembled to achieve the abstracted curve of the Eye and its intricate decorative surface. By changing different elements in the geometric patterns, the viewer decides what mood the Eye projects – sparkling, happy, alert, mellow, excited – it’s all in the control of the beholder.

 

Gamma World - MCA Original Facade

 

Vivid Light transforms Sydney into a wonderland of 'light art' sculptures, innovative installations and grand-scale projections for all to enjoy.

May 23 - 9 June 2014

 

The MCA Projection takes the audience on an integrated journey, moving from one space to another in a constant flux of movement. Inspired by Artist Jess Johnson, the MCA building morphs into an interactive and dynamic performance space, coming to life, changing its appearance, and even seeming to change its structure at times through the use of isometric designs, old school gaming, pop up 3D books and forced perspective. As each chapter evolves we have built drama and emotion through animation and 3D visual effects tricks that will take the viewer on an abstract, emotional and playful journey through constantly changing worlds.

Liberty is a muscle that must be exercised.

 

We had an interesting interaction with Capitol Police in DC tonight (4-10-2018). They tried

to shut down our projection action at the Rayburn office building - and succeeded for a while. But after a lot of back and forth, and a decision to risk taking an arrest to defend 1st amendment protected speech - we ended up all going home - and getting our photos.

 

Thank you to the great team of folks ready for anything. Was super proud to be part of such a great team with Phil and Roni, as well as all the crew from the Health Over Profit for Everyone - HOPE action camp. Special thanks to Kevin Zeese for his skilled late night, on-the-street legal support and negotiation skills.

 

Forward Together!
