“The mirroring that binds into freedom is the play that betroths each of the four to each through the enfolding clasp of their mutual appropriation. None of the four insists on its own separate particularity. Rather, each is expropriated, within their mutual appropriation, into its own being.”

"Staying appropriates. It brings the four into the light of their mutual belonging. From out of..."

“Staying appropriates. It brings the four into the light of their mutual belonging. From out of staying’s simple onefoldedness they are betrothed, entrusted to one another. At one in thus being entrusted to one another, they are unconcealed.”

awarethroughthesenses:

A collection of 3D fabrics that fold, fracture and turn three-dimensional, derived from the flat printed pattern. The textiles are made in a unique process, in which the printed image defines the fabric’s dropping and folding. The light, elastic textiles are dyed and then screen printed with an inflexible material that indicates the nature of the fabric’s movement and creates a new, three-dimensional textile structure. — Mika Barr

Daniel Everett - Conversations with a Computer (2008)

Artist’s statement:

“Contained within the operating system of Mac computers is a rudimentary electronic psychotherapist program.

Meant to simulate a Rogerian therapist, it engages the participant in a cyclical conversation by taking his or her statements and roughly reconfiguring them into questions.

I met with this program three times a week for a month in order to discuss my fear that I was disappearing completely. These are three stills from our conversations.”

Andrei Tarkovsky - Instant Light (1979-82)

From a series of 60 Polaroid photographs taken in Tarkovsky’s native Russia and in Italy, where he spent time in political exile.

“Tarkovsky often reflected on the way time flies and wanted to stop it… The melancholy of seeing things for the last time is the highly mysterious and poetic essence that these images leave with us. It is as though Andrei wanted to transmit his own enjoyment quickly to others. And they feel like a fond farewell.”
