nice idea:

The node08 lecture day is about to enter the net. Starting with Paul Prudence’s lecture (dataisnature.com) and performance (this is the last part, with the performance):

I guess there’s a lot more to come. Best subscribe to the node08 vimeo channel.

I recently updated my Flickr with a lot of analogue taken photos from the last half year, including New York, Bremen, Salzburg, Graz, and Frankfurt.

I usually announced posts of this kind with a bunch of thumbnails. But unfortunately my chosen method (a wp plugin) doesn’t work anymore. Any ideas how to insert flickr photos in a blogpost easily? Can’t imagine that I still need a plugin to do that?!

I’m still quite in love with Brooklyn (note to self: scan the photos), and the following video underlines one of the reasons: colorful people.

Why not? As long as it makes fun.

I recently discovered this little sticker on a paper towel dispenser in a toilet in New York:

It seems to work:

“Testing shows a “These Come From Trees” sticker on a paper towel dispenser reduces paper towel consumption by ~15%”
official website

It worked for me too, I didn’t use one of the paper towels and decided to let the air do the work. I ordered the large sticker pack, so be aware fast food restaurants and shared flat parties.
Please spread the project, and get a bunch of stickers for your neighborhood!

My brother Christopher currently exhibits a series of his photographic work in the Künstlerhaus Salzburg. You are invited to check it out, it’s running until 25. of January in the Café Cult.

“Die gezeigten Fotoarbeiten von Christopher Steinweber verschränken subtil zwei Konzepte der Wirklichkeitsaneignung mittels des Mediums der Fotografie. Steinweber reduziert sowohl die Wahrnehmung von Zeit auf genau definierte Zeitfenster, indem er seine Aufnahmen im Dämmerungslicht des frühen Abends macht, als auch die Wahrnehmung von Raum auf diskrete Orte, wie urbane Zwischenräume, die man gerne als „beschämend unspektakulär“ bezeichnen würde.”
