Be good

in the process of recovering from a nasty malware attack, with a little help from a friend we updated danielperlin.net

it now includes some semblance of a resemblance to my work and will have to hold down the fort until perlin studios finally gets its own site.

of course, thoughts, issues and ideas still come here first, and stay tuned for many new thoughts (including writings for domus ) coming in the next week.

I have the pleasure of being an organizer of Postopolis in Mexico City. Working as an independent curator and producer alongside Storefront For Art and Architecture, Domus, Tomo and El Eco museum, we have assembled 10 bloggers from around the world, each who selects 5 local participants they would like to have either speak or interview. These selected participants will be presenting their thoughts, works and ideas over a 5 day period in Mexico City. I have been fortunate enough to have been one of the curators selecting the bloggers, as well as an organizer of the various events, programs and activities (including performances) that surround Postopolis!DF. Below is the description from the postopolis.org website.

About Postopolis!DF
From 8-12 June 2010, Storefront for Art and Architecture, in partnership with Museo Experimental El Eco, Tomo and Domus Magazine, will host the third edition of Postopolis!, a public five-day session of near-continuous conversation curated by some of the world’s most prominent bloggers from the fields of architecture, art, urbanism, landscape, music and design. 10 world-renowned bloggers from Los Angeles, New York, Turin, Barcelona, London and elsewhere will convene in one location in Mexico City to host a series of discussions, interviews, slideshows, presentations, films and panels fusing the informal and interdisciplinary approach of the architecture blogosphere with rare face-to-face interaction.

Each day, the 10 participating bloggers will meet in the magnificent courtyard of Museo Experimental El Eco, designed by Matthias Goeritz, to conduct back-to-back interviews of some of Mexico City’s most influential thinkers and practitioners – including architects, city planners, artists and urban theorists but also military historians, filmmakers, photographers, activists and musicians. The talks will be conducted in either Spanish or English, and translations will be available. Each day of talks will end with an after-party hosted by some of Mexico City’s most influential music blogs.

Re: Destruction

Re:destruction is a sound and video performance created by smashing a computer with a sledge hammer. It is the fourth piece in a series entitled Work by the artist and sound designer Daniel Perlin.

In re:destruction, a computer is smashed, using a sledge hammer, producing a sound as well as video work. The hammer and the computer are microphoned, sampled, amplified and played as instruments in real time.

Like the preceding pieces in the series, re:destruction is created by a single real-time sample of the sound of the act of labor, mixed with the use of the tool upon objects. In re:destruction, there is the addition of projected color video.

The Work series attempts to examine the implications of sound, noise and music in the processes of the building of physical structures.
The fourth performance piece in the series, re: destruction will be performed at Issue Project Room, Brooklyn, and dovetails with re: drill performed at the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council gallery, re:construction 1 performed at Studio X and re:construction 2 P.S.1, New York.
