I’ll be launching Dublin 24 a new three channel video projection which will be projected on the Irish Times building in Tara Street this Friday as part of the Lightwave festival. The work tells the story of a single 24 hour period in Dublin as seen by over 120 traffic cameras.
The exhibition continues until the 9th February

Artforum reports that Anselm Kiefer had work stolen from his studio in Barjac in Gard in southern France. The photo above was taken when they were removing Kiefer’s installation at the Grand Palais in Paris and gives you an idea of the scale of the operation needed to nick Kiefer’s art.
I’ll be giving a talk on my work to the Faculty of Fine Art at NCAD today at 4pm in the Noel Sheridan room. All welcome

Workshop by Benjamin Gaulon (Recyclism™), Lourens Rozema (Blue Melon), with the support of Tim Redfern (Eclectronics) for the Dublin Art and Technology Association the February 2nd-3rd at the Moxie Studio Dublin.
Summary:
Moore’s law dictates that the complexity of computer chips doubles each 18 months. This causes a rapid decrease in the value of existing electronics. Thus, the dark side of technological progress is the production of endless amounts of electronic waste: e-waste. Although the economic value of obsolete electronics approaches zero, the electronic components themselves can still be useful in other contexts.
Our workshops offer the participants to become familiar with basic hardware and software design while at the same time gaining hands-on experience making an interactive art project. The workshops are open to participants of different backgrounds and no programming or electronic skills are required. The idea is to start from scratch and create a complete project over a weekend, including concept, design, electronics/ interfacing, and functional programming with Max/Msp, Pure Data or Processing.
Duration: 2 days

Via rbally Radiohead bootleg of 22 songs recorded at SFB Sendesaal, Berlin, Germany, July 4, 2000, very good sound quality.

Back from the days when quiet/loud ruled the world.
Got my tickets for Radiohead in Malahide Castle in June – yes the June that’s six months away. I’m one of those people who downloaded In Rainbows for free that all the music journos were whinging about and have now shelled out €154.10 for tickets and am going to buy the CD in the shops as well. That’s how the new music economy works.
Radiohead cover Joy Division’s Ceremony.
