missed it by that much
thanks to moving house, i missed the second dorkbot melbourne in a row!
and i missed out on some screenings of artworks around connectivity and systems that i really, really wanted to see:
1. Works of Art by Theo Jansen
2. The Way Things Go (Der Lauf Der Dinge) by Peter Fischli and David Weiss.
3. Paricipatory Installations: Interactive Wood Machines by Bernie Lubell, who you may recall I wrote about at ars electronica.
Thankfully, there is a special Part II of the January Dorkbot [maybe this happens to everyone at this time of year].
14.2: SPECIAL
Thursday 31 January 2008 with Robert Henke.
held at the usual place: Level 1, 124a Johnston St Fitzroy,
but at the not-so-usual time of 7:30 for 8pm start.
Robert, aka Monolake will be joining us to talk about the design, construction and evolution of his Monodeck performance controller - a custom built MIDI controller he uses to perform live electronic music

If any of you went to 14.1, let me know how it went (and i'll try to not get really jealous) and if anyone is planning to go on thursday, i'll see you there!.

I didn't go, sorry Lauren.
But I am thinking about having an exhibition in my shed.
geez you're slack c**t tom. and i think the exhibition is a great idea. although when i first read your comment, i thought you were going to have an exhibition in your head. to which i thought: 'yeah, well, what's new there'.
It will be a conceptual exhibition and the ideas will come from my head Lauren - that and the tip, and be expressed as exhibits on shelves (probably)
I will make some others.
How should I go about this ?
I looooove Fischli and Weiss. Their clay models are amazing and the messy studio with everything re-built is crazy. Some of my favourites...
charlie! high fucking five on the fischli and weiss! i love their list of 10 rules for living, their clay models, their film, their photo work. some of their latter-day stuff didn't grab me so much, but hey.
and mr gogh, this is a much wider conversation than possible within the bounds of a comment box. email me.
