zines

 

 

I get lots of emails, and in many of these emails are links for online projects and zines. Here are a couple I received today:

ANNOUNCING the publication of disappearing zine
march 1st, 2006

featuring the work of: aaron henry, carson ellis, cynthia lahti, jack dingo ryan, kevin sampsell, kristan kennedy, morgan currie, nick jaina, ty connor, zak margolis

this webzine attempts to address the marvelous nature of the many things* that are disappearing from the world.

this list is just the tip of the iceberg (which is also disappearing by the way). the idea is not to educate but simply to consider some of these things because they exist right now and in the future they might not, and we might miss them. some day we may have trouble imagining they ever existed at all.

things* : plants, animals, trees, clean air, clean water, oil, rain forest, languages, etc.


 


Word For/Word #9 is online at http://www.wordforword.info

Judd photos: amazing coincidence!

 

 

Hey, guess what? I followed a link from today's Modern Art Notes to Matthew Langley Artblog and I scroll down to a post and see a photo of a large Judd sculpture at MoMa, and I start thinking, huh, that looks familiar.

So I check the image's properties and it's called "20050519MoMADonaldJudd2-772999.jpg," and I'm thinking, wow, that's amazing, I was at MoMA on May 19, 2005, too. What a coincidence, that Matthew Langley and I were at MoMA on the exact same day taking a picture of the exact same sculpture from the exact same angle. Isn't that beyond belief?

And even more amazing, I named the photo I shot "20050519MoMADonaldJudd2.jpg"- man, that's pretty darn close! And then I used the picture in a weblog post on May 26, 2005.

Compare Matthew Langley's photo:

with my photo:

Gosh, I hope he doesn't think I stole his photo, they're so close and all. I mean, if I borrowed someone's photo I'd cite the source and link to it, you know, because, you know, that's like good scholarship, you know what I mean? I believe in being a good netizen.

Hi Matthew- nice photo! What kind of camera did you use?

I think my inclusion of the guard on the left gives the photo a little more drama, bringing in a human dimension that evokes notions about class and race: who visits the museum, who works there and stands on their feet all day, and who is watching who. Not that it's a competition or anything; yours is nice, too.

Moments later, after an email exchange:

It turns out that Matt had lost the source URL, and he has duly cited his source and now knows where to send the royalty check. Ka-ching!
