[DAM] Berlin

Neue Jakobstr. 6/7
10179 Berlin
Germany

Numerous private and public collections are recently opening their Wunderkammers. Galerie [DAM]Berlin is commenting ironically on this fashion in curatorial pastime with the special show „Meine Wunderkammer“. The selected works on display are not so much ancient findings as a subjective journey of exploration through odd and exotic positions in the gallery’s field of interest. The group exhibition shows diverse objects – from a original cheque of Roberta Breitmore, the alter ego of the media art pioneer Lynn Hershman Leeson to the sandstone-computer sculpture „Case Mod I“ of the artist Aram Bartholl.

Co- Re-Creating Spaces

without comments

Co- Re-Creating Spaces 
CentralTrak, 800 Exposition Ave., Dallas, TX
2012-11-17 – 2013-01-05

Co- Re-Creating Spaces surveys how artists are questioning and subverting existing contexts or spaces and contributing to their re-imagining and re-creation. The exhibition recognizes that “reality” itself can be both art medium and art object, and speculates how developments in the virtual and the actual might affect one another.  

The exhibition will include works by Morehshin Allahyari; Nadav Assor; Amy Balkin; Aram Bartholl; Zanny Begg & Oliver Ressler; Linda Bilda; Irina Botea; Martha Colburn; eteam; Cao Fei; Yevgeniy Fiks, Olga Kopenkina, & Alexandra Lerman; the Institute for Wishful Thinking; Cassandra Emswiler, Kristen Cochran, & Greg Metz; Martha Rosler; Dread Scott; the Yes Men/Steve Lambert; and Karen Weiner, with Celia & Frank Eberle.  Curated by Carolyn Sortor & Michael A. Morris.

All events are at CentralTrak:

Opening reception Nov. 17:  In addition to the other works, there will be 3 live, media-based, participatory projects:

Let’s Play Max Payne

without comments

The 3rd volume of the DVD Dead Drop is featuring massive 18 hours of Let’s play Max Payne. It ll launch next week Tuesday 30th. If you haven t got hold of ‘INSERT DISC‘ yet make sure to stop by at the museum on the weekend!

Let’s Play Max Payne
vol. 3 of the DVD Dead Drop
at Museum of the Moving Image, 36-01 35 Avenue, Astoria, NY 11106
October 30 –December 3, 2012

Eighteen hours of ‘Let’s Play’ Max Payne walkthrough videos on DVD

Three players—Tetraninja, AMF1534, and TehNevs—provide commentary while playing Max Payne 1, 2, and 3 from start to finish. Enjoy 4.5 GB and 60 video files of intense game-play action, hilarious comments, and compelling story-mode cut scenes.

The video game series Max Payne, which premiered in 2001, represents an important milestone in gaming history. Initially developed by the Finnish game studio Remedy, this third-person shooter won acclaim for its strong storyline and film noir scenarios coupled with its unique use of “bullet time” slow motion effects and advanced character controls. Through a large number of cut scenes and off-screen narration, the game tells the classic story of a revenge-driven cop in an experience at the intersection of cinema and game. In the latest title Max Payne 3, developed by Rockstar Games, the broke ex-cop Max once again causes more problems than he solves. Famous for high quality storytelling and hilarious cynical humor, Rockstar delivers another groundbreaking third-person game/film hybrid.

“Let’s Play” originated on Something Awful forums in 2006 as screen shot walkthroughs of video games before also coming to describe screen capture videos of game walkthroughs. Instead of playing a game oneself, the viewer watches someone else play, a common gesture in gaming culture. As CPUs and screen capture software became more powerful, Let’s Play developed into a widespread entertainment form. Many Let’s Play enthusiasts have attracted large numbers of subscribers on YouTube and frequently play several games for large audiences.

As Max Payne already possesses many cinematic qualities, the Let’s Play version of the game adds another layer of experience. The common third-person game perspective is heightened by a fourth person: the commenting player. Through multiple pairs of eyes, the viewer can relax and watch the action take place from a double over the shoulder view.

RIP Joseph Demarco

without comments

The official trailer of the unreleased game Watch Dogs features a scene in a dark new media art gallery in Chicago. At the end of the preview the owner (galerist ?) gets killed by the player in shoot out in the street. In a viral marketing attempt UBI has set up a gallery website with RIP message dotconnexion.ubi.com for the passed art philanthropy. There are also two very interesting interviews on the same site featuring media artists of the gallery.  ;)

(looking fwd to this game btw)

SPEED SHOW GML

without comments

SPEED SHOW: GML show will feature a series of projects and tools around this open protocol GML. Graffiti Markup Language was originally created by Evan Roth, Chris Sugrue, Jamie Wilkinson and Theo Watson. SPEED SHOW:GML is part of backjumps – ‘Rock The Block’FB event!! ENJOY!!

GML = Graffiti Markup Language from Evan Roth on Vimeo.

“Graffiti Markup Language (.gml) is a universal, XML based, open file format designed to store graffiti motion data (x and y coordinates and time). The format is designed to maximize readability and ease of implementation, even for hobbyist programmers, artists and graffiti writers. Popular applications currently implementing GML include Graffiti Analysis and EyeWriter. Beyond storing data, a main goal of GML is to spark interest surrounding the importance (and fun) of open data and introduce open source collaborations to new communities. GML is intended to be a simple bridge between ink and code, promoting collaborations between graffiti writers and hackers. GML is today’s new digital standard for tomorrow’s vandals.” http://www.graffitimarkuplanguage.com/
