The fifth volume of Stadtklang, the UCL Urban Laboratory music night, took place on Sunday 20 March at Somerset House as part of the 'Venturing Beyond: Graffiti and the Everyday Utopias of the Street' exhibition.
Writer and theorist Kodwo Eshun of The Otolith Group was in conversation with Ayesha Hameed - co-editor of a new book ‘Visual Culture as Time Travel’ and lecturer in the Department of Visual Cultures, Goldsmiths, University of London - and Louis Moreno to discuss 'The Last Angel of History' - a video essay from the Black Audio Film Collective exploring informatics, technics, mutation, posthumanity and extraterrestriality.
The discussion centred on the film’s themes and its critical role in the production of new Afro- and other futurisms. Kodwo also played a playlist especially for Stadtklang offering his take on Afrofuturist sound. Benny Blanco and Nonsense from NTS Radio played sets inspired by cities, science-fiction and utopia.

They wonder much to hear that gold, which in itself is so useless a thing, should be everywhere so much esteemed, that even men for whom it was made, and by whom it has its value, should yet be thought of less value than it is - Thomas More, Utopia
The building has been painted with the entire text of Utopia by Thomas More, by local artist Rory Macbeth. It is shortly to be demolished.
The V for Vendetta insignia at the bottom is a later addition.

The grand plan for Glasgow was to re-build the city as concrete utopia with roads hidden, houses high and public areas connected by paths and bridges.
The Anderson centre was the first project but it was never fully realized and looking at how its aged in the last 50 years its lucky the project never got further.

"Vieron como todos veian. Pero solo ellos se pararon a pensar. Pararse a pensar es necesario para seguir avanzando. Reflexionaron sobre que era aquello que les latia, que les embriagaba, que les hacia perder la mirada en una espiral de ideas chispeantes, incipientes, descabelladas. Y no pararon de manosearlas, de moverlas sin sentido, sin encontrar un orden lògico. Y se rindieron exhaustos. Y al minuto,de nuevo, se pararon a pensar y de nuevo comenzo el proceso, ese proceso que les desternillaba las ideas. Y de nuevo se rindieron. Y no pudieron parar de pensar. Hasta que de repente, en un momento, sin aviso, algo hizo "chist"... ahi estaba..."

Utopia is a stock SM, and Nami is a custom SM. They're both the EBL version, which I love so much more than the SBL encore that was released.
They have the sweetest faces ever!

I must apologize for not getting more of our vacation photos up earlier... what I can say is that the riding in West Sechelt was out of this world! Jodi's smile says "we will be back!"
This morning Jodi and I headed out to Burnaby's Mountain Air Skills Park so she could audition for a stunt rider spot in a TV commercial. After that, we went to look at puppies. PUPPIES. More on that later ;)

Finally, I reached the pass to Italy
Remembrance of the infamous past of Mussolini
I smile at the now peaceful Casermetta
And I pray for a new utopia

For some, Singapore is a utopia. For others, a dystopia. The author William Gibson came here and called it 'Disneyland with a death penalty", while a former Chinese leader called it a tiny red dot on the map.
Clearly, everyone has their own opinion, but it's a beautiful place without a doubt. I've been here a long time and I have no major complaints except for the fact that it's too damn hot every day of the year!
Here's a Singaporean's view of the question...

"Utopia by Design" was the theme of the London 2016 Design Biennale. This is a detail from the Mexican entry.
in utopia wird alles vergöttert, was mit wissenschaft oder technik zu tun hat. der begriff "vergöttert" ist wörtlich gemeint, da religion allgemein als unsinn gilt. die ersatzrolle hat die wissenschaft eingenommen. die menschen glauben an den fortschritt und die technik. in der siedlung sind an einigen stellen obelisken aufgestellt, die technische daten präsentieren. hier im bild eine ansammlung, in der weltzeit, temperatur, luftfeuchte und ähnliches angezeigt wird. manchmal kommt es vor, dass sich menschen auf die knie werfen und die 75% luftfeuchte anpreisen.
