More MOMA, this time some shots from the top floor "Signals"
show- a real mind melter. Im a Nam June Paik fan (loved seeing Zen for TV), but seeing these video pieces around media, "news", broadcasting and surveillance. If it didn't cost $25 per visit I would come back just to see the video show. Dara BirnBaum's intimate Tiananman square piece was well placed aside Julia Scher's Information America.

While some friends were in town I tagged along with them to MoMa which did not disappoint! I found myself stuck in this "Systems" room as my friends explored the rest of the floor. Excellent work and my favorite room in a host of good current shows there
So I gotta look more into the work of Kate Crawford and Andrew Norman Wilson. Tough concepts to illustrate and wrap your head around, but so relevant and super interesting to me.

From tropical/semi-tropical swamps & marsh, to "urban jungle".

Back-story in the post.
Thin-sliced: I took a photo from this exact spot decades ago (KM, before digital film" OR social media). It got seen somehow (I think a gallery exhibit) & became a book cover.

It's #fleetweek in #nyc and we've been getting jet flyovers, they fly up the Hudson and past my building. Ran out to grab a pic but I was a little late, from hearing the sound to getting to my balcony, but did get this.

This is yet another photograph from my spring visit to New York City. There's more going on in this photograph than might be immediately apparent. I'll share a few hints here, but you may want to look a bit deeper, beyond my description, and even consider potential metaphors, not all of which may be immediately obvious. Some of them were not even obvious to me when I made the photograph, and I only saw them later. Yes, I'm being a bit opaque about this. Have fun..

I'm not defending The Red Berets. I believe they are what you say, vigilantes with racists mixed in. Kinda like US police.
The truth may be as dark as the 1970s in NYC. Fear, as fear does, drives all of us along with the need to survive. NYC was paralyzed by fear for a decade.

The #NYC of my pre-teens is alive and well... on the walls of the Ontario Gallery of Art gift shop. Not complaining.
I’d like to live in #NYC but where do you live with three bedrooms and good schools that isn’t $4000/mo (and even that doesn’t actually seem possible)???
(And don’t say “New Jersey”; I need somewhere remotely livable…)

Good morning from Harlem

It's weird watching #NYC get an influx of refugees/immigrants and seemingly not giving a shit about building more housing.
At least #Seattle kind of gave a shit (#HALA in response to what was effectively Amazon employee numbers growth wasn't great, but it was better than nothing at all). But NYC is just like, "meh, whatevs."

Upon first spotting a dog 🐶 coming into the store. 🐱👀
Imagine running a government program so popular that demand outstrips supply by 50%, that *also* helps the city's poorest families and gives kids something to do during the boring summer months.. and deciding, "Nah, we don't need to continue this once federal funding runs out."
Parking your #suv in a #bikelane like this can often be an indicator of how little someone respects the safety of their neighbors. That’s definitely the case with this motorist. A quick check of their plates on howsmydriving.nyc reveals this person has 34 violations since 2021, including 24 school zone #speeding violations. How is this person still able to #drive in #NYC ? And why is the ticket for speeding in a #school zone only $50?!

New York Charter Schools Write Their Own Rules for When to Call 911 on Students Having a Mental Health Crisis

Families say Success Academy and other publicly funded but privately run schools are allowed to punish and discriminate against students by calling in emergency services.

Tragic story of a person subway surfing on Staten Island with fatal consequences. The image from the local news just seems...unreal. It’s like an exaggerated movie scene.

The couple’s office says the pair and Meghan’s mother were followed for more than two hours by half a dozen vehicles after leaving a #NYC charity event. The chase “resulted in multiple near collisions involving other drivers on the road, pedestrians and two NYPD officers.”
