Where else but in the heart of Brooklyn can you find a real down to earth meal in family size portions from people who only speak spanish for $8?
[the vegetarians may have a little trouble though]

am i my ipod
The French philosopher Jacques Lacan says that we are a "reflection" of our environment which is our society. He states that you take in and make part of yourself the aspects of culture you feel positive towards. This becomes part of your identity. As for the parts of culture you naturally dislike, you reject it. So then I ask, am I my iPod?

Modernism, Death of an Ideology
Modernism as an American ideology from the 50's was very positive. It was believed that our creations would stop hunger, cure disease and house everyone. We built skyscrapers, bridges, water towers and dams. Places to work & live, an ability to connect to people in other places and control of nature to our advantage. As it turned out people are still hungry and the quality of food is decresing. We have new deadly diseases and many people go with out adquate shelter. The dams are bursting (think New Orleans), air travel is becoming unbearable and most everything we have done has helped to destroy the environment. Now all that is left is decaying buildings, fragil bridges and rusted water towers as monuments to the death of an idea.

Light & Sound Reactive Installation
If you happen to find yourself in Richland Washington over the month of April, stop on by the gallery at Washington State University and check out the Reactive Light & Sound Art Installation. The piece contains ten televisions playing video created by the students from the Richland WSU campus. The televisions are used as light projectors so they are faced away from the viewer towards the walls. The over all concept for the show and the sound pieces were created by the students from the WSU Pullman campus. The audio is broken into four areas: natural sounds, man made sounds, television background noise and TV commericials. Each area is controlled by a sensor that turns on or off the audio when someone walks by. This piece gives the viewer the ability to control the audio environment while moving around the piece. The sensor that controls the TV commericials audio has been placed out side the gallery walls, making the people in the hallway a part of the piece.

Culturecatalogue is back
culturecatalogue.com is back and has been moved to Flickr. The catalogue is a virtual curiosity cabinet of mundane objects found in America from the 40's - 90's. The catalogue is searchable with each image described by key words relating to its color, material or era's of use. Try doing a search on the color "red" or for the material "plastic" or just sort through by era like "60's" or "80's".

Analog Pac-Man
Recently I have been considering the relationship between 8-bit graphics and nature. Is there a connection?
