“tout va bien - newsseries 2“, Oeuvre du mois. Observatoire Critique des ressources numériques en histoire de l’art et archéologie. Work of the month.
“Or on the contrary exacerbates it the duality of the daily message, the collective distilling of frights and insurances? Fear, loneliness and fragility are topics cherished by Annie Abrahams. She especially excavates in the dubious zone of the eternal search for identity by the communicating subject. A dream of ONE; to be undivided with or without the machine is echoed by News Series 2, with its split screen. Who speaks with whom? By whom we are spoken?“, Corinne Welger-Barboza , 10 07 2008.

I am touched by a conference of Judith Butler
“on vulnerability and survival”
“We are not a discrete entity in a social world. Our self is not a boundary. We are bound up with others in a set of relations. We are a set of relations that makes survival possible. We must loosen our boundaries to be able to exist.”

I just watched
“Fundamentalism v Evolution: another dilemma of coexistence“,
Archive of the visitorsstudio performance by Ruth Catlow and Marc Garrett at Banff
I am impressed, It’s beautiful, and it brings on reflexion!
The piece has a good pace, beautiful sound, it’s not imposing, but letting you time to adjust, to find your way, and all the time it isn’t where I thought it would be, it doesn’t bring me where I thought it might bring me. And that’s great!
It’s also strange.
Because it left me with an overwhelming impression that religion is far more attractive than science, that it has more aesthetic beauty than science.
More information about background etc in the Diwologue blog. Do it with others.
