The Viennese City Park stretches from the park ring in the first district of Vienna up to the Haymarket in the third district of Vienna and is a of both tourists and local citizens well-visited park in Vienna. Its area is 65,000 m².
History
Yet in the Biedermeier the Water Glacis was a popular entertainment venue before the Karolinenstadttor (city gate). As part of the by the demolition of the city wall happened remodeling in the Ringstrasse, the project of a public park has been promoted on that site by the then Mayor of Vienna, Andreas Zelinka. This park was designed in the style of English gardens by the landscape painter Josef Selleny, the plannings were carried out by the city gardener Rudolf Siebeck. On 21th August 1862 the city park was opened as the first public park in Vienna.

"Wien" (Vienna River) in the city park
On the right bank of the river Wien (Wienfluss) was 1863 the so-called children's park, today mainly characterized by paved playgrounds and sports facilities, which over the Karoline bridge (Karolinenbrücke) (since 1918 Stadtparkbrücke), built in 1857, with the on the left bank situated town park is connected.
In the years 1903-1907 was in the parking area after the regulation a by Friedrich Ohmann and Josef Hackhofer planned Vienna river engineering structure with the river gate, pavilions and river banks built, which is one of the sights in the park.
In earlier times visitors of the park for the stay in placed chairs had to pay fees that were collected by the chair women (the so-called Sesselweiber).
Attractions in the park
Kursalon
The Kursalon
The water Glacis was a spa pavilion in which healing waters for drinking cures were served. To that affect, in the years 1865 to 1867 for the city park also the Kursalon was built according to plans of Johann Garben. This historicist imposing home in the style of the Italian Renaissanceg is located at the John street (Johannesgasse) and has a large terrace in the park:
After the opening on 8th May 1867 were originally forbidden pleasures. As this concept was not adopted, yet on 15th October in 1868 was taking place the first concert of Johann Strauss (son) whereupon became the Kursalon a popular dance and concert venue in particular at the time of the Strauss brothers. Today, the Kursalon after a renovation phase is again venue for balls, concerts, clubbings and conferences and houses a café-restaurant.

Monuments
With the gilded bronze statue of Johann Strauss (son) stands in the city park one of the best known and most frequently photographed monuments in Vienna. It was on 26th June 1921 unveiled and is framed of a marble relief by Edmund Hellmer. The gilding was removed in 1935 and in 1991 applied again. Other monuments there are, for example, of Franz Schubert, Franz Lehar and Robert Stolz and Hans Makart, the City Park is in monuments and sculptures the richest park in Vienna.
The dairy (Meierei)
The former milk bar was built as part of the Wienflußverbauung (Vienna river engineering structure) according to plans by Friedrich Ohmann and Josef Hackhofer from 1901 until 1903. After suffering heavy damages during the Second World War the building was extended in the reconstruction. Today is in the dairy after another annex a restaurant.
Planting
The planting of the city park is characterized by a great diversity of species and is, as possible, focused on a year-round flowering. Through an avenue to the ring road noise and exhaust gases are filtered. Some trees are protected, such as a ginkgo, a crown of thorns (Honeylocust, Christusdorn), cottonwood tree and Caucasian wingnut.

Something that has always stuck with me is, "weather is the convergence of two or more fronts." That is to say it might rain, it might snow on its own, but severe weather is the result of two different and potentially harmless fronts colliding and forming a storm! The more fronts that converge, or the greater the difference in the two fronts, the worse the weather that generally results.
While Mount Washington has notoriously erratic weather, the Northern Presidential’s largely share the same weather. Generally wind gust on mount Washington are slightly stronger because of it's prominence, but if Mount Washington is being hit with 100mph winds, it's not unreasonable based on extrapolation to determine that the neighboring summits are receiving AT LEAST hurricane force winds of 70mph!
Mount Washington and the Northern Presidential’s, including Clay, Jefferson, Adams (and sub summits), and Madison weather patterns are partly due to the convergence of several storm tracks. Along with it's location relatively close to the coast, it's prominence (height above the neighboring land), proximity to converging storm tracks (Atlantic, Pacific, Gulf and Arctic), and it's north-south orientation which prevents movement of fronts by prevailing westerly winds; low-pressure systems are notoriously prone to develop along the coastline in the winter months. The relative temperature differences between the interior Northeast and the Atlantic Ocean, along with arctic fronts drifting in from Canada and beyond are primarily responsible for the diverse and completely unpredictable weather in this region.
Mount Washington holds the world record for surface wind speed, at 231 mph (372 km/h) since April 12, 1934. It's entirely possible stronger winds have occurred on earth. Specifically in F5 tornadoes which often have 300+mph winds above the surface. Winds exceeding hurricane force occur on an average of 110 days per year. During the winter months the weather on the summits of these mountains is exceptionally brutal. With hurricane force winds 2 out of every 3 days, and wind chills often dipping into the -40F/-40C range!
In 2004, the summit registered a temperature of −43.6F/−42.0C and sustained winds of 87.5 mph (140.8 km/h). The resultant wind chill was below -100F!! During 3 day period adjoining the day of this -100F wind chill, the combined ambient temperature, and wind speed, never brought wind chill above -50F at any point!
The summit of Mount Washington spends approximately 240 days per year on average in the clouds. There is measurable precipitation on the summit of Mount Washington 209 days a year. The summit sees an average of 101 inches of rain, and 259 inches of snow per year.
While these numbers might be eclipsed many places in the world in either isolated or routine instances, very few have had the continuous and accurate weather data that this summit has had. There has been a continuously operating weather station on the summit since the 1870s, and it has been a model for weather stations around the world!
Beyond the severe weather, and continuously manned and monitored weather station providing perhaps the most detailed historical and confirmed data of any mountain in the world, there is one other aspect to Mount Washington, and the surrounding Northern and Southern Presidential Ranges ACCESS!
While many mountains and ranges around the world have arguably worse weather on any given day (and I stress arguably), very few see the sheer volume of hikers, climbers and skiers that this range sees. Within the range is some of the best moderate ice climbing in the Northeastern US, as well as some great alpine rock climbs, the most accessible and reliable backcountry skiing (although the Adirondacks are a close, and less crowded second!!), and an amazing alpine experience for hikers and winter mountaineers! This accessibility has allowed many unprepared backcountry explorers to find themselves in over their heads in rapidly deteriorating conditions. The result, while again debatable, has given Mount Washington, and to a lesser extent the Presidential’s a place as the deadliest small mountain in the world!!

She has this wacky energy about her that's both hilarious and adorable. She also has amazing wheelchair-driving skills.
Our arrangements range from big to bigger. Most ambush arrangements are just big. Subscribers get a fuller arrangement with more "specialty balloons".
In specific, Holy Week is the week just before Easter that extends from Palm Sunday until Holy Saturday and marks the last week of Lent. It has earned the name 'Holy', according to the Orthodox Church, due to the significant events that take place for Christianity in regard to the sufferings of Jesus Christ.
Saturday evening is filled with the anticipation of celebrating Easter Sunday. In some areas, people begin to gather in the churches and squares in cities, towns and villages by 11pm for the Easter liturgies. A few minutes before midnight, all the lights are turned off and the priest exits the altar holding candles lit by the Holy Light, which is distributed to everyone inside and outside the church. At midnight, the priest exits the church and announces the resurrection of Jesus. Many people carry large white candles called lambada, and the church bells toll as the priests announce “Christ is Risen!” at midnight. Each person in the crowd replies with a similarly joyous response.

There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment.
We are making photographs to understand what our lives mean to us.
The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.
The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.
I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn’t photograph them.
2021-10-24 encore Body Guarding NADYA ZEITLIN Dance ATL Elevate ATL at 54 Columns by Sol LeWitt Ptar Flamming Dima Alekceev
We are excited to be a part of the ELEVATE Atlanta 2021!
A free site-specific dance theater performance and installation that can be enjoyed over a picnic with friends and family.
Bring your own chairs or blankets, please. The length of the work is about 25 - 30 minutes.
Show dates:
Saturday, September 25th at 6pm,
Sunday, September 26th at 5pm.
This work explores and celebrates the new post-Covid corporeality – its key theme is the human body in a post-pandemic world.
= THE INDIVIDUAL BODY facing the invisible and omnipresent danger of the pandemic, brought to the threshold of physical existence, vulnerable and isolated, nervously checking for symptoms of disease. The state of lockdowns, quarantines and social distancing has made us sensitive to our own body, rediscovering its daily routine, weak but also strong – as many people invested in physical fitness, exercised, or engaged in other bodily activities.
= On the other hand, we have also discovered a COLLECTIVE BODY of the society, with an unprecedented mutual dependence in the much-sought “herd immunity”. The ideas of common good and collective action have come to the fore in an individualistic society, as we have experienced new forms of solidarity and alienation, selfless sacrifice and conspiracy theories. Each of these fields is explored in the performance by means of choreography, sculpture, music, showing bodies isolated and reunited, injured and healed, locked and liberated. This will be a reunion of the artists and the public to take stock of what had happened to our bodies, to understand the profound transformation of our societies, and to celebrate the opening of the cities and communities to the new normal.
Choreography: Nadya Zeitlin in collaboration with dancers: Juliana Feracota, Porter Grubbs, Amber Kirchner, Jenna Latham, Ellie Tsuchiya.

The Viennese City Park stretches from the park ring in the first district of Vienna up to the Haymarket in the third district of Vienna and is a of both tourists and local citizens well-visited park in Vienna. Its area is 65,000 m².
History
Yet in the Biedermeier the Water Glacis was a popular entertainment venue before the Karolinenstadttor (city gate). As part of the by the demolition of the city wall happened remodeling in the Ringstrasse, the project of a public park has been promoted on that site by the then Mayor of Vienna, Andreas Zelinka. This park was designed in the style of English gardens by the landscape painter Josef Selleny, the plannings were carried out by the city gardener Rudolf Siebeck. On 21th August 1862 the city park was opened as the first public park in Vienna.

"Wien" (Vienna River) in the city park
On the right bank of the river Wien (Wienfluss) was 1863 the so-called children's park, today mainly characterized by paved playgrounds and sports facilities, which over the Karoline bridge (Karolinenbrücke) (since 1918 Stadtparkbrücke), built in 1857, with the on the left bank situated town park is connected.
In the years 1903-1907 was in the parking area after the regulation a by Friedrich Ohmann and Josef Hackhofer planned Vienna river engineering structure with the river gate, pavilions and river banks built, which is one of the sights in the park.
In earlier times visitors of the park for the stay in placed chairs had to pay fees that were collected by the chair women (the so-called Sesselweiber).
Attractions in the park
Kursalon
The Kursalon
The water Glacis was a spa pavilion in which healing waters for drinking cures were served. To that affect, in the years 1865 to 1867 for the city park also the Kursalon was built according to plans of Johann Garben. This historicist imposing home in the style of the Italian Renaissanceg is located at the John street (Johannesgasse) and has a large terrace in the park:
After the opening on 8th May 1867 were originally forbidden pleasures. As this concept was not adopted, yet on 15th October in 1868 was taking place the first concert of Johann Strauss (son) whereupon became the Kursalon a popular dance and concert venue in particular at the time of the Strauss brothers. Today, the Kursalon after a renovation phase is again venue for balls, concerts, clubbings and conferences and houses a café-restaurant.

Monuments
With the gilded bronze statue of Johann Strauss (son) stands in the city park one of the best known and most frequently photographed monuments in Vienna. It was on 26th June 1921 unveiled and is framed of a marble relief by Edmund Hellmer. The gilding was removed in 1935 and in 1991 applied again. Other monuments there are, for example, of Franz Schubert, Franz Lehar and Robert Stolz and Hans Makart, the City Park is in monuments and sculptures the richest park in Vienna.
The dairy (Meierei)
The former milk bar was built as part of the Wienflußverbauung (Vienna river engineering structure) according to plans by Friedrich Ohmann and Josef Hackhofer from 1901 until 1903. After suffering heavy damages during the Second World War the building was extended in the reconstruction. Today is in the dairy after another annex a restaurant.
Planting
The planting of the city park is characterized by a great diversity of species and is, as possible, focused on a year-round flowering. Through an avenue to the ring road noise and exhaust gases are filtered. Some trees are protected, such as a ginkgo, a crown of thorns (Honeylocust, Christusdorn), cottonwood tree and Caucasian wingnut.
Matadero Madrid presenta Visita guiada, una intervención site specific que ha realizado Elena Alonso (Madrid, 1981) para el programa Abierto x Obras, que tiene lugar en la antigua cámara frigorífica del que fue el matadero de Legazpi. La propuesta de la artista parte de la idea de encontrarnos en una cámara aislada, donde no existe apenas comunicación entre el interior y el exterior, y del concepto de conservación, que ha estado ligado a este espacio a lo largo de su historia.
Tras sucesivas visitas a la nave, la artista comenzó a fijarse en toda la información visual que había quedado plasmada en paredes y techos. Lo que más llamó su atención fueron una serie de agujeros repartidos por la cubierta de las naves laterales, clausurados en la última reforma.
La intervención propone un recorrido por la nave utilizando como guía un pasamanos. Una línea trazada en el plano como un dibujo, que en esta ocasión toma forma escultórica. Su elaboración con distintos materiales, como madera, cemento, corcho, escayola pintada o cobre, pone de manifiesto el interés de la artista por la artesanía y el diseño, y ofrecen al visitante el deleite a la vista y al tacto de los materiales trabajados.
En la penumbra de la nave encontramos esta particular guía que nos lleva a descubrir una nueva perspectiva del espacio. Los agujeros han sido reabiertos, por ellos entra la luz y se vislumbra otra galería superior, antes oculta a la mirada del visitante.
En esta intervención artística hallamos un juego de contrastes, de impedimentos y de posibilidades. En cierta manera, recuerda a las cuevas visitables donde el recorrido nos va mostrando la particular geomorfología que conserva en su ambiente antes estático. En este caso, la cuidada elaboración del pasamanos contrasta con la brutalidad del espacio.
El pasamanos es a su vez una guía y una barrera, una línea que sortea y adorna la arquitectura de la nave. Una pieza que podemos ver y tocar, y que nos lleva a descubrir un lugar inesperado sobre nuestras cabezas, pero que solo podemos llegar a entrever desde la distancia.
Elena Alonso (Madrid, 1981) Licenciada en Bellas Artes y Máster en Arte, Creación e Investigación por la Universidad Complutense de Madrid, ha realizado también estudios en Suecia y Helsinki. Desarrolla su trabajo principalmente mediante el dibujo, relacionándolo con otras disciplinas como la arquitectura, la artesanía o el diseño, y prestando especial atención a las problemáticas vinculadas a la afectividad con el entorno. Ha expuesto de forma individual en el Museo ABC (El espacio alrededor, 2016); Espacio Valverde (Canto Blando, 2016; Composición de lugar, 2014; La tapadera, 2012); en la Sala de Arte Joven de la Comunidad de Madrid (2011); y en la Cable Factory de Helsinki (Paredes de piel, 2007).
Abierto x Obras, en Matadero Madrid, es un programa de intervenciones site specific que invita a artistas a realizar una pieza de nueva producción incentivando el carácter experimental de la creación contemporánea a través de planteamientos que exploran la relación entre el arte y el lugar que lo acoge, la antigua cámara frigorífica del Matadero. Una sala de más de 800 metros cuadrados que todavía conserva su aspecto original y las huellas de un incendio sucedido en los años 90. Un espacio característico por su estructura diáfana de arcos volados y columnas. Desde 2007, Abierto x Obras ha acogido las intervenciones de artistas como Daniel Canogar, Jannis Kounnellis, Román Signer, Carlos Garaicoa, Fernando Sánchez Castillo, Jordi Colomer, Los Carpinteros, Cristina Lucas, Eugenio Ampudia o Darya von Berner, entre otros.

Jaspilite in the Precambrian of Michigan, USA.
Banded iron formations, or BIFs, are unusual, dense sedimentary rocks consisting of alternating layers of iron-rich oxides and iron-rich silicates. Most BIFs are Proterozoic in age (although some are Late Archean), and do not form today - they're “extinct”! Many specific varieties of iron formation are known, and some are given special rock names. For example, jaspilite is an attractive reddish & silvery gray banded rock consisting of hematite, red chert (“jasper”), and specular hematite or magnetite.
Because of their age, most BIFs have been around long enough to have been subjected to one or more orogenic (mountain-building) events. As such, most BIFs are folded and/or metamorphosed to varying degrees.
BIFs are known from around the world, but some of the most famous & extensive BIF deposits are found in the vicinity of North America’s Lake Superior Basin. Many BIFs have economic concentrations of iron and are mined. BIFs are the most important variety of iron ore on Earth.
A famous BIF unit is the 1.874 or 2.11 billion year old Negaunee Iron-Formation, which outcrops in the Marquette Iron Range of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula (UP), USA. The Negaunee Fe-Fm. has been metamorphosed to varying degrees and contains many specific lithologies, including jaspilites, taconites, specularites, ferruginous quartzites, ferruginous cherts, and ferruginous slates. The Negaunee Fe-Fm. has economic concentrations of iron and much of the unit in the Marquette Iron Range has been mined away. The best remaining, easily-accessible outcrop is Jasper Knob in the town of Ishpeming, Michigan. Earth’s oldest known macrofossils, Grypania spiralis, occur in this unit.

Installation Documentation: Scot Borofsky's Pattern Walk: an outdoor site-specific installation of more than 25 original designs rendered in spray paint in NYC's East Village. Created by the artist working at night with spray paint and folding ladder, between the years 1982-1985, during the East Village art movement in Alphabet city. This photo excerpted from recreated virtual installation. (created 2009-2011), find it at virtualeastvillage84.com .
Part of a site-specific installation produced for Constance ARI in April, 2013. Model of the first level - a tall, cubic, windowless space, ideal for large installations or video works.
The explanation of the supposed "redevelopment":
"To coincide with Inflight’s change of name and scope, the existing gallery building at 100 Goulburn St will be redeveloped. Based on current trends in museum architecture, the humble ARI will be transformed into a cutting edge monument to rival institutions such as the Guggenheim(s), the New Museum, the Tel Aviv Museum of Art and MONA. The redevelopment will retain the building’s existing white cubic base, but will have three additional levels on top, will include the neighbouring apartment in the same building, and convert the current carpark into a concrete-paved sculpture garden.
The art museum is no longer built in the image of a Greek temple. Instead, it strives to be unique in every way, from the toilets to the shiny coloured enamel exterior. However, the features designed to create a unique structure paradoxically tend to be common to most new museum buildings. These features include bizarre angles, curved or polished concrete, confusing layout, large entrance courtyards, water features, unlikely toilets, rust, and floating or unusual staircases. The institution will encourage site-specific artworks that respond to the architecture, with art invading the lift shafts, stairs and toilets. Importantly, the ‘visitor experience’ is enhanced through the provision of a gift shop, bar, restaurant and/or café. I have identified the most common of these features and have attempted to apply as many as possible to the new Constance ARI design, with the aim of providing Hobart with (another) ‘unique’ contemporary art museum."
Commissioned by Dancing in the Streets and Casita Maria Center for Arts & Education as part of The South Bronx Culture Trail, PASEO is a roving site-specific performance by choreographer/director Joanna Haigood and music director Bobby Sanabria that celebrates the Hunts Point and Longwood sections of the South Bronx and their astounding contribution to Latin music.

Guidebook Description: "Constructed to specific rules each with a symbolic meaning, the stupa of Swayambhunath is a model of its kind. Its dazzling white hemispherical mound represents the four elements of earth, fire, air and water. The 13 guilded rings of the spire are the 13 degrees of knowledge and represent the ladder to nirvanna, itself symbolized by the umbrella at the top. The whole is hung with multi-colored prayer flags whose every flutter releases holy prayers."

From 20 November 2007, the government of Japan has branded all foreigners (with a few specific exceptions) as potential terrorists.
My home is in Japan, my business is in Japan, I pay tax in Japan, I submit my personal details in order to be eligible for a visa (for which I must also pay, as well as an additional fee if I wish to leave and re-enter the country). I carry a foreigners' ID card with at all times, and failure to produce it when asked by the police can result in my arrest.
Now I am to be fingerprinted, like a common criminal. Except of course that I haven't done anything. And the same will happen to you if you visit Japan.
At first the Japanese government said it was to catch terrorists. You could point out that it won't, but you could also just ask them why they're not fingerprinting Japanese citizens. The only terrorism Japan has suffered has been perpetrated by Japanese citizens, after all.
Then they said it was to catch criminals. But, again, they're not fingerprinting Japanese citizens. Aren't criminals also Japanese?
So it's basically about illegal immigration. Japan has a miniscule illegal immigration problem. Both the UK and France (half the size of Japan, population-wise) estimate they have nearly half a million illegal immigrants. Japan reckons on 10,000.
So they're spending billions of tax-payers' yen to crack this tiny nut.
And offend the dignity of every foreign resident of and visitor to Japan.

The Fellini Kroger, to be specific.
This is interesting to me because it perfectly demonstrates what I call "Little Debbie's Law." In the last few years, I have learned a little something about myself, and this has come to be one of my biggest lessons. Oftentimes for me, food is more about the *perception* or the appearance of deliciousness, than actual tastiness. I'm betting that if I had purchased one of these cakes, taken it home, and cut off myself a big hunk, I would be grossed out by the actual eating of the cake. I would WANT to like it, but the actual taste would be different. It would be too sweet-- the frosting copious, grainy and unflavored, the cake dry and dull and crumbly. I'm not trying to diss grocery store cake or anything, I'm just saying that the taste doesn't measure up to the way they *look.*
I have been very carefully trying to train my eyes to recognize this, so that my mouth doesn't have to, and my hips don't get punished. Flickr really helps. It gives me the excuse to take pictures in the middle of Kroger.

This site specific house was designed with the desire to maximise privacy and the natural sun path to the rear of the site. The barn / cluster concept of the design gives the design a rural quality whilst retaining a contemporary feel for the dwelling. Large sliding windows give good light to the main living spaces. The house creates a quiet garden area to the rear which is south facing maximising sunshine and heat gained by the windows.

Nest heeft Wineke Gartz gevraagd een presentatie te maken binnen de Nestarchyserie die de afgelopen jaren is ontstaan en waarbinnen kunstenaars de complete tentoonstellingsruimte van Nest ter beschikking krijgen om mee aan de slag te gaan. Sinds Wineke Gartz in 1998 afstudeerde aan de Rijksakademie heeft ze een consistente carrière opgebouwd met installaties vol overlappende beelden, architectonische ingrepen, materialen en projecties.
Wineke Gartz heeft voor de kust van Scheveningen videomateriaal geschoten. Dat materiaal zal vermengd worden met materiaal van de kust van China waar ze enige tijd verbleef, en met filmfoto’s van Hollywoodsterren (de HotFreaks uit de titel), daklozen, bezinningscursussen, zelfportretten en performances uit Los Angeles. Het valt te verwachten dat het geheel een grote bewegende collage zal worden waarin alle oorspronkelijke ingrediënten hun oorsprong grotendeels verliezen en verworden tot een typische Wineke Gartz hallucinatie die de bezoeker een totaalervaring biedt en kan leiden tot een staat van trance. Tegelijkertijd worden esoterische clichés vermeden en doet het hedendaagse dagelijks leven volop mee.
Wineke Gartz exhibits in the Netherlands and in various countries worldwide. Her site-specific installations consist of complex overlays of imagery and media, often with the use of music and multiple video and slides projections and with the integral use of the architectural space. Her parallel realities include mixing the ordinary with the heroic, creating an almost hallucinatory experience. Her subjects relate to psychology, beauty, death, illusions and perception, nature versus urban life, art and mass media. Gartz is interested in the combination of spirituality, art and science. Currently she is developing video lectures about her work and started to collaborate with musicians.

"Space Thang" by Jori Sackin and Pat Vamos is a site specific movie-going experience for an adult movie theater on Troost in Kansas City, MO. A wild success, their one-night-only event played to a sold out audience. On top of Vamos and Sackin's found footage and original animation collages, the show included "Mary Fortune" as the live opening band and MK12's "Follow the Sun" as a trailer.
I wrote more about this whole Kansas City trip on our blog...

The Ambient Performance of Quiet Spaces is a site-specific exploration of experience at the border of perception and imagination. It was set in Washington DC’s McKinley Theater in the Carnegie Library and performed continually between 8pm-3am. The Carnegie Library, the first public library in Washington, was decommissioned in the late 70’s and it is now a performance and event venue.
In this work, the shared physical, public space of the library is reconfigured so that its new visitors: the audience, robotic cameras and performers are equally engaged in moments of private and public reflection. The form of the work is the active transposition of subject and object and of content and meaning between these three constituencies. This process of transposition is a reference to contemporary digital culture’s ongoing assimilation of earlier cultural forms.
Working with performer Nick Horan, we each took turns on stage, quietly reading and at times engaging with the installation. Two PTZ IP cameras were programed to scan the stage, the audience and each other, similarly pondering their environment. The resulting images were projected onto the screen behind the stage. A soundtrack composed of ambient sounds from existing public libraries, recordings of the preparation of the materials for the installation and ambient sounds from recent installations played quietly throughout the performances.
The Ambient Performance of Quiet Spaces featured an installation of various materials on the stage of the theater that included: card catalog cards, *prepared books (with tape, acetate, LEDs/electronics/code), cables, computers, projectors and IP cameras.
*prepared books included:
> James Joyce’s Ulysses containing excerpts from Emmanuel Levinas’ Totality and Infinity
> John Beecroft’s Kipling: A Selection of His Stories and Poems containing card catalog cards for books related to technology and its impact on the library system
> John B. Noss’ Man’s Religions
> Milan Kundera’s The Unbearable Lightness of Being

(HGM 1205 M, Heisey Glass Museum, Newark, Ohio, USA)
-----------------------------------
"353 Medium Flat Panel" is the designation for a specific glass product design made in Newark, Ohio by the Heisey Glass Company (1896 to 1957). Heisey glass designs are called "patterns". Pattern designations include a number (not necessarily consecutively numbered during the history of the glass factory) and a name. Some pattern names were given by the Heisey company, while others were given by Heisey glass researchers.
"Zircon" refers to a type of colored glass that Heisey made - in this case, greenish.
The source of silica for Heisey glass is apparently undocumented, but was possibly a sandstone deposit in the Glassrock area (Glenford & Chalfants area) of Perry County, Ohio (if anyone can provide verfication of this, please inform me). Quarries in the area targeted the Pennsylvanian-aged Massillon Sandstone (Pottsville Group) and processed it into glass sand suitable for glass making.
-----------------------------------
From Bredehoft (2004):
Zircon: 1936-1939. A turquoise blue-green. The last color introduced before World War II curtailed the use of color. Revamped and reintroduced later as Limelight.
-----------------------------------
From museum signage:
Augustus H. Heisey (1842-1922) emigrated from Germany with his family in 1843. They settled in Merrittown, Pennsylvania and after graduation from the Merrittown Academy, he worked for a short time in the printing business.
In 1861, he began his life-long career in the glass industry by taking a job as a clerk with the King Glass Company of Pittsburgh. After a stint in the Union Army, Heisey joined the Ripley Glass Company as a salesman. It was there that he earned his reputation of "the best glass salesman on the road".
In 1870, Heisey married Susan Duncan, daughter of George Duncan, then part-owner of the Ripley Company and later full owner, at which time he changed its name to George Duncan & Sons. A year later, he deeded a quarter interest to each of his two children. A few years after his death, A.H. Heisey and James Duncan became sole owners. In 1891, the company joined the U.S. Glass Company to escape its financial difficulties. Heisey was the commercial manager.
Heisey began to formulate plans for his own glass company in 1893. He chose Newark, Ohio because there was an abundance of natural gas nearby and, due to the efforts of the Newark Board of Trade, there was plenty of low cost labor available. Construction of the factory at 301 Oakwood Avenue began in 1895 and it opened in April of 1896 with one sixteen-pot furnace. In its heyday, the factory had three furnaces and employed nearly seven hundred people. There was a great demand for the fine glass and Heisey sold it all over the world.
The production in the early years was confined to pressed ware, in the style of imitation cut glass. The company also dealt extensively with hotel barware. By the late 1890s, Heisey revived the colonial patterns with flutes, scallops, and panels which had been so popular decades earlier. These were so well accepted that from that time on, at least one colonial line was made continuously until the factory closed.
A.H. Heisey's name appears on many different design patents including some when he was with George Duncan & Sons. Heisey patterns that he was named the designer include 1225 Plain Band, 305 Punty and Diamond Point, and 1776 Kalonyal.
Other innovations instituted by A.H. Heisey were the pioneering in advertising glassware in magazines nationally, starting as early as 1910 and the first glass company to make fancy pressed stems. That idea caught on quickly and most hand-wrought stemware is made in this manner, even now.

This is part of a school project and my product is VitaminWater.
Inspired by Sharpie ICast billboard and Coca-Cola's Velcro Poster, this advertisement is an interactive advertisement.
I want to market VitaminWater as a drink for everyone(psychographic) and not just for a specific age group or profession.
The original advertisement will look like those on the left and when it's doodled on it will look like something on the right.
Body copy writes "Vitamin water knows that on some days, you feel like crap, and on others you wished you were a rockstar.
Go ahead, express yourself on the bottle.
Doodle your personality"
Thus it invites people to doodle or express their personality on the bottle. Whatever character is drawn on the bottle is revealed in the tagline "For the ______in you"
There is a slight colour difference in those on the left and right as those on right are printed and then scanned in.
The medical 3D models that are produced by ACRM Corp are patient-specific and are derived from CT or MRI scans (typically using DICOM image data). These models are used by physicians, orthopaedic surgeons and neurosurgeons to aid in pre-surgical planning and diagnoses for conditions ranging from spine conditions like scoliosis and kyphosis to skull-related issues like hydrocephalus and craniosynostosis. 3D brain models, hips and knees are also commonly replicated items. There is a case study store (www.Medical3Dmodels.com) where you can order physical 3D models of all of the items shown in these videos. If you are looking to get a 3D model for a specific patient, visit our corporate site (www.ACRMcorp.com) for details on how we can create a custom 3D medical model for that patient.
Abierto x Obras. Matadero Madrid. Del 15 de septiembre 2017 al 8 de enero 2018.
Matadero Madrid presenta Los Afijos, una intervención site specific que ha realizado Juan López (Cantabria, 1979) para el programa Abierto x Obras, que tiene lugar en la antigua cámara frigorífica del que fue el matadero de Legazpi. La propuesta del artista plantea una intervención escultórica sobre la arquitectura como forma de resistencia contra lo establecido.
Los afijos son secuencias lingüísticas que se anteponen, se posponen o se insertan en una palabra para modificar su significado. Esta intervención, realizada específicamente para el programa Abierto x Obras de Matadero Madrid, trabaja con la relación entre escritura y arquitectura, entre signo y significado, entre escultura y collage. En un mundo hipercomunicado, poblado de signos creados por una élite intelectual y/o social, López juega con la posibilidad de alumbrar nuevos significados, nuevos espacios y otros regímenes de lo sensible, a partir de la creación de renovados signos, que además componen otros espacios. Así pues, se resignifica el discurso a la vez que se resignifica la arquitectura y por tanto nuestra manera de relacionarnos en este espacio.
Desde sus obras tempranas de intervención en el espacio urbano, el trabajo de Juan López busca desvelar otros modos de percibir el lugar como hipótesis para otras relaciones sociales fuera de la normatividad impuesta por el poder. En su obra, y mediante el recurso de la metáfora, quiebra y recompone los vínculos entre estos tres elementos: ciudad, subjetividad y poder.
Juan López ha expuesto en numerosas galerías, centros de arte, ferias y museos nacionales e internacionales como La Casa Encendida, MUSAC, Centro de Arte Laboral, Fundación Joan Miró, La Panera, O.K. Centrum Tokyo Wonder Site o Den Frie. Además, ha recibido diversos premios y becas como Hegnspl-Award Byens Hegn, Generaciones 2013, Premio ABC de Arte, Beca Fundación Marcelino Botín o Muestra de Arte INJUVE.
Abierto x Obras, en Matadero Madrid, es un programa de intervenciones site specific que invita a artistas a realizar una pieza de nueva producción incentivando el carácter experimental de la creación contemporánea a través de planteamientos que exploran la relación entre el arte y el lugar que lo acoge, la antigua cámara frigorífica del Matadero.
A Room-A Loom began as a site-specific weaving experiment by Julia Sherman at workspace, a small project space in East L.A. Materials used thus far in the L.A. loom have included weeds, old clothing, Halloween costumes, computer cables, bubble wrap, plastic bags, John Baldessari's toilet paper, Sheep Dog fur, raw wool, yarn, pants, jeans, blankets, burlap sacks, palm fronds, pom-poms and more.
Copy is the first of several project spaces spanning the country and beyond to undertake A Room - A Loom. Eventually, there will be a group exhibition with all of the weavings from the various participating spaces.
