.....for the psychoanauts, the transhumanists, the curious, the technologically inclined, the bored, the under-stimulated looking for stimulation, etc, etc ...
entry is free at le musée des beaux-arts de montréal [ www.mbam.qc.ca ] until end of january!! yeah, it is a lot of stuffy, boring art in a very stuffy, boring place, but there is currently an exhibit i reccommend checking out :e-art: New Technologies and Contemporary Art - Sept20 to Dec9, [ www.mbam.qc.ca ] of particulary spectacular, tripped-out amazingness is: [...] Hylozoic Soil (2007) by Philip Beesley. The work of this architect constitutes a vestibule through which we, the visitors, will pass into another space and time, a biometric environment, a reactive space. This transformation occurs as we enter an “organic and living” system. These quasi-plants – all synthetic – come to life in the space, retracting, contracting, slackening and opening as we pass, creating in us a sense of both wonderment and anxiety. They trigger an emotional response from visitors, prompting them to “question the boundaries between nature and artifice and examine their own organic condition as they interact with technology.”Hylozoic Soil is one in a series of works by the artist that explores thenewest techniques and materials, interactive geotextiles and reflexive and responsive membranes, networks of actuated objects, and canvases composed of primitive interactive systems. The works use sensors and proximity detectors, muscle wires, actuators, and distributed networks of microprocessors.
mmhmm. how informative. anyways- basically, imagine being in a giant, wiggly, wriggly forest made of LIVING latex jellyfish, syringes and computer chips. as you walk around this enchanted psychedic raver grove, with the shiny lights and spindly, cyber feather-branches, parts of it begin to move. that's right, it isn't you, it's the installation! (well, it might be both, but i'll let you be the authority on that. you and your 3 heads). the picture doesn't even come close to doing this thing justice.... i think you should probably just go yourself, and feel weird. and oddly magical. like an android elf, looking for cyber-techno clues in a fantastical-future-forest.... | |

je suis allé aussi, c'est wierd en effet!
j'ai pas tripper plus que ça par exemple. Je me rappel que l'odeur lève le coeur après quelque minute dans cette pièce. C'est peut-être juste moi. J'ai fais des visites plus palpitante dans le passé au musé, mais c'est une bonne façon d'occuper une journée à rien faire! | |
I'm feeling kiss me, im shitface right now.. |
