Known for his pioneering of the “photo-object_ genre (artworks which fused the disciplines of photography and sculpture); he has furthered that exploration with a multiple series of what can be seen as perhaps the ultimate “photo-object”. Belcher has taken the ephemeral nature of the universal jpeg, and solidified its default icon into a standard image surrogate. The edition entitled “______.jpg” was fabricated in China, is a series of 125 pieces each signed and dated.”<a href="http://www.marianneboeskygallery.com"> 25 Years of Talent at Marianne Boesky Gallery, curated by Michelle Grabner May 2 - Jun 16, 2012.</a></p> </blockquote>http://lauterthanbombs.com/post/22388782762http://lauterthanbombs.com/post/22388782762Fri, 04 May 2012 13:13:53 -0400artsculpturejpg<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3i9dkoG591qz61qfo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://heathceramics.wordpress.com/">Heath Ceramics</a> ad from 1947</p>http://lauterthanbombs.com/post/22385516370http://lauterthanbombs.com/post/22385516370Fri, 04 May 2012 11:51:00 -0400heath ceramicsmid-century modernadadvertising“Social reading doesn’t create a new category. People excerpt and annotate and share and argue and quote and remix. All these things happen all the time. Social reading introduces the idea of text as a usable object. The idea that I’d read it and then do something about it — those actions were always connected, but we pretended they weren’t because the book didn’t have those features. Social reading goes any place where a group of people cares about a particular text.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://blog.findings.com/post/20527246081/how-we-will-read-clay-shirky">How We Will Read: Clay Shirky</a></em>http://lauterthanbombs.com/post/22381952133http://lauterthanbombs.com/post/22381952133Fri, 04 May 2012 10:03:44 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3cw2ugmd51qg5q72o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://lauterthanbombs.com/post/22368999796http://lauterthanbombs.com/post/22368999796Fri, 04 May 2012 00:44:19 -0400<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/41385924" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p>Grant McCracken Spots A Culture Creation Trend</p> <p><em>At PSFK CONFERENCE NYC, Grant McCracken spoke about how he was looking at a trend where creative minds were taking culture and remixing it to make new culture.
