Regram from @eyebeamnyc 's month-long feature on Study Collaboration | @carolinewoolard makes art and institutions for the solidarity economy. Her method enjoins objects to their contexts of circulation. Woolard builds sculptures for barter only as she also co-creates international barter networks; she fabricates model Shaker housing as she also co-convenes organizers of community land trusts. WOUND, the study center launched at 41 Cooper Gallery, is a continuation of Woolard’s dedication to art and also to the institutions which enable these objects to circulate.

Regram from @eyebeamnyc 's month-long feature on Study Collaboration | Income’s Outcome is an ongoing conceptual drawing project comprising over 250 individual works by Danica Phelps. Delicate line drawings tracking Phelps’ everyday experiences--from having sex to getting a parking ticket--are marked with notations of the activity’s cost, as well as the income earned from the sale of previous drawings. A system of barcoding (coded red and green) tracks dollars earned and spent by Phelps through the sale of successive drawings to buyers. By copying and re-marking drawings that have been sold, Phelps creates a set of generationally bound works, binding desire and exchange, accounting and intimacy.

Regram from @eyebeamnyc 's month-long feature on Study Collaboration | This text is a protocol for Ultra-red’s ongoing practice of "militant sound investigation.” Recognizing that communication is as much a matter of listening as of speaking, this practice offers organizers, cultural workers, and community members an accessible process for practicing listening and developing collectivity within the context of ongoing and long-term struggle.

Regram from @eyebeamnyc 's month-long feature on Study Collaboration | Founded by two Los Angeles activists at the height of the HIV/AIDS crisis, the sound art collective Ultra-red has teams of sound researchers working in Berlin, New York, Los Angeles, and several cities in the UK. The twelve members of Ultra-red come from a variety of backgrounds as organizers, educators, and artists, all of whom have long-term engagements organizing for housing justice, anti-racism, HIV/AIDS justice, and sexual and gender rights.⠀

Regram from @eyebeamnyc 's month-long feature on Study Collaboration | Project 404 teaches practices of attention using the very devices that threaten to distract us. This protocol asks participants to focus on one image for twelve minutes of silence with the phone or device in airplane mode. The ambition of the project, as the name indicates, is to reverse the “not found” message often seen when looking for a website, and to send it back— briefly— to who or whatever else wants attention.

Regram from @eyebeamnyc 's month-long feature on Study Collaboration | The Order of the Third Bird’s practice involves a set of semi-ritualized performances of close attention to works of art. The group writes: "The number of accumulated works of art in the world now exceeds the number of persons on the planet. If each of these human artifacts can be understood as a reified request for attention, the nature and scale of the problem immediately becomes apparent. The Order of the Third Bird—an association of like-minded individuals (together with an intimate penumbra of splitters and apostates) who work at the convergence of performance and aesthetic theory—have devoted themselves to this overwhelming cause." The Order challenges participants to attend to works of art with an intensity that might rival the attention given by the person who produced the work.⠀

Regram from @eyebeamnyc 's month-long feature on Study Collaboration | While light travels at a speed that is imperceptible to the human eye, it is possible to measure and calculate the duration of even the shortest beam of light. The time chalked on Celeritas (swiftness, in Latin) is calculated by measuring the distance between the light source and the cabinet, and dividing it by the speed of light (299,792,458 meters per second). At the end of the exhibition, the board is erased.⠀ ⠀ Matthew Buckingham, Celeritas, 2009. Courtesy the artist and Murray Guy Gallery, New York.

Regram from @eyebeamnyc 's month-long feature on Study Collaboration | Shaun Leonardo is a multidisciplinary artist who uses modes of self-portraiture as a means to convey the complexities of masculine identity and question preconceived notions of manhood.⠀ ⠀ In the artist’s words, “this diagram [contributed to the 2016 exhibition WOUND] illustrates an easily learned, one might even say elegant, self-defense, escape technique... also the movement made by Eric Garner (1970-2014) which to the officers present constituted resisting arrest.”
