The first exhibition of over five years studying Te Lapa with Holau Vaka Taumako Association (HVTA) and Pacific Traditions Society—“Searching for Te Lapa” is up through September 28 at @chronusartcenter . The entrance area includes videos recorded in Taumako and off the coast of Hawaii. Walk into the main space to listen to an interview with Luke Vaikawi, director of HVTA, discussing Te Lapa. Wait for your eyes to adapt to the projection in near total darkness, and you might even catch a glimpse of it.

My work on Te Lapa with Dr. Marianne George and Holau Vaka Taumako Association is featured in “All Impossible Deeds”, a report on the LACMA Art + Tech Lab.

Apocalypse Early Warning System tracks all private jet activity in realtime and watches for deviations from historical baseline. The current emergency level is reported on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being an indicator of a likely imminent apocalypse. https://aews.cc/

On Saturday, April 25, at the World Fencing League held at The Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, the collaborative project “Fencing Visualized” by Rhizomatiks and Dentsu Lab Tokyo will be introduced in live competition.
At the venue, the system will track and visualise the movement of the fencers’ blade tips in real time during actual matches. The system was previously used on-site at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and will be presented in the United States for the first time.
This system captures the motion of the blade tip without markers and renders it as dynamic trajectories. By implementing this system, audiences can experience the advanced techniques of athletes competing on the international stage from a new perspective.

Three years ago I moved into a place with a loquat tree. When spring came, I couldn’t collect them fast enough. This tree is humble, resilient, and a little temperamental. Even in a city like Los Angeles, the soil and sun have a lot to give. The fruit doesn’t keep for long before it turns brown, which is one reason you won’t find it in stores. It’s kind of anti-capitalist. So I learned how to make jam, distributing the abundance in time and space. I’ve taken dozens of people on hikes and made jam together. And now you can taste it for yourself, exclusively at @__all__for__nothing__

“Kyle McDonald on Computer Softness” by Peter Bauman @monkantony with @kcimc
Kyle McDonald, an artist working with code, spoke with Peter Bauman about his wide-ranging engagements with technology and culture. They cover McDonald’s chatbot-to-AI-researcher-to-artist origin story, how 2015 made computers feel softer and more human, plus the idea that AI is building a dense mirror world out of every trace of our digital past.
