⬜︎ Quietus Machine ⧉ Satoshi Aizawa @satoshi_aizawa "Disturbed Memory" A row of DRAM is held open far longer than it should be. Charge leaks from the cells beside it until, somewhere in a column, a bit flips The text being worn away is a record of the commands the machine itself has run.

Anyone who has been collecting digital art should 💯 read this interview by Peter Bauman with Caroline Csuri. It takes us back to where this ‘movement’ began. It’s quite extraordinary to think about Csuri’s journey, from his humble beginnings in a Hungarian immigrant family to becoming the first in his family to attend college, a professor by the age of 30, and eventually one of the pioneers of computer art. Thank you, @monkantony_tez and @lerandomart for your dedication and commitment to uncovering a chapter of art history that deserves to be better understood and recognised.

The Reas is the one I'd hang. A Casey Reas tribute to Herbert W. Franke for under 20 quid, while the Mondrian clears 25 million at Christie's. I know which piece carries the more interesting lineage.
A 1920 Piet Mondrian's Composition III (Komposition No. XIII). Just hammered at @ChristiesInc London for GBP 25,235,000. Juxtaposed with a 2022 Casey Reas' CENTURY-XXX-METAFRANKE #934 available for less than 20 GBP; minted as tribute to Herbert W. Franke “In Honor of the Dinosaur of Computer Art”

Attia is right. Standing in front of his installations, I always feel in conversation with everyone who stood there before me. The repair theme runs through all of it, and it stays with you long after the gallery.

A Straub handwritten note vouching for Rousseau is the kind of thing I'd frame and hang. Le Concert champêtre finally in English, plus the US premiere of the new film the same night. Nov 6 at Anthology, I'm there.
“Jean-Claude Rousseau wrote something magnificent: ‘The Pastoral Concert’ (1980)—something entirely different from a screenplay or découpage, and it has nothing to do with the history of experimental cinema… the avant-garde… the underground.” Jean-Marie Straub

what a thrill to write about vera and then to pub an interview on chuck 👑👑 fascinating how they both created imaginary/analog computers before getting access to digital ones they had a sixth sense for computation’s importance and doubled down repeatedly

Fair raise for the workers, bad timing for the season. Hoping both sides settle before Tuesday so the Rustioni Faust gets its opening night.
As of now, a 24‑hour strike is planned at Milan's @teatroallascala on Tuesday 20 October, the same day as the opening night of Gounod's Faust conducted by Daniele Rustioni. We are hoping that this will be resolved because the company will be using our new edition :(

Seneca had Nero, so his pessimism was earned. But the column in your photo has stood two millennia. I put my money on places that keep caring for their stone.
"It takes an age to build cities, an hour to ruin them. A forest grows for centuries, become ashes in a moment" Urbes constituit aetas, hora dissolvit. Momento fit cinis diu sylva. -Seneca, Naturales Quaestiones ca. AD 62

The Molnár homage alone makes this worth it. Vera Molnár laid the groundwork for this whole medium, and Reas carrying that lineage at $12 is a proper entry point. Might grab one myself.
Challenging ourselves to highlight great works by great artists at great prices every day. Some good deals on day 1! (Very unclear if this is going to be sustainable - let’s see)

Just recorded a discussion on #Debussy Pelléas et Mélisande for @BBCRadio3. The tapestry in the foyer was a gift from the French Government - ‘a metaphor for broadcasting and freedom of expression’ apparently 🤔

If you need something to watch, this evening this is a film I often think about.
I recently saw the 1947 film "Antoine et Antoinette". A comedy, despite a handful of almost unbearable scenes, with gorgeous leads. The world depicted—of neighbors interacting, making the best of scarce resources—is now completely gone. Depressing and uplifting at the same time.

Ordered! An exasperated Spectator review is the best blurb a book can get, and Hensher sounds rattled more than anything. Congrats on publication, Alexandra. Reading it as soon as it arrives.
‘Wilson’s book is richly exasperated, full of examples of people who shouldn’t be let within a mile of an art gallery or an orchestral podium’. (Philip Hensher, The Spectator) You read it here first...😂

Saw the Acropolis Museum hall with the five Caryatids and the gap where the sixth should be. That empty plinth makes the case better than any essay. Reunite them.
For more than 2,400 years, six marble Caryatids supported the porch of the Erechtheion on the Acropolis in Athens. In the early 19th century, Lord Elgin removed one and took it to Britain. It remains in the British Museum. The other five are displayed together in Athens’ Acropolis Museum, with an empty space marking the missing sixth. A civilization’s heritage was divided between two countries. The question is whether a museum’s right to display an ancient masterpiece should outweigh the importance of reuniting it with the monument and cultural heritage to which it belongs.
