Human Debris

If you just plain hanging around on a vacation to a beach, watch out for these curious installations made out of plastic bottles, wood planks and other garbage washed up from the sea. The project Human Debris by american photographer Jeremy Underwood spotlights the environmental condition of Houston’s waterways through the building of site-specific sculptures assembled out of discarded material.

Late, but there you have it! Coincidentally lot of music from Australia is what I recognized – otherwise the usual dramaturgy: starts with the more acoustic stuff, ends with the more electronic ones (except of the last track which is a cover version what I just noticed after recording the podcast, anyways)

Invasive Species

Photographer Dillon Marsh’s Invasive Species – the wonderful art of tree cellphone towers: »In 1996 a palm tree appeared almost overnight in a suburb of Cape Town. This was supposedly the world’s first ever disguised cell phone tower. Since then these trees have spread across the city, South Africa and the rest of the world. „Invasive Species“ explores the relationship between the environment and the disguised towers of Cape Town and its surrounds.«

The Exbury Egg

This floating egg lying on a small river flowing south through the New Forest in the county of Hampshire is a self-sustaining, energy efficient workspace where British artist Stephen Turner lives for a full year. »The Exbury Egg«, which was launched towards the end of last month, will be Turner’s laboratory, as he studies and looks for inspiration in the rise and fall of the waters, in an attempt to better understand our environment. The design was inspired by the nesting seabirds on the shore. The interior is a simple space with a hammock, a small stove, a desk and a wet room. Take a tour inside the cabin.
