Aus Acta wird Ipred

Inzwischen sollte jeder den Inhalt des Urheberrechtsabkommens Acta studiert haben. Vor allem aber die Herrschaften aus der Politik. Vom Tisch ist die Sache dadurch noch lange nicht, geht es in der aktuellen Debatte doch vor allem um eins: Vertuschen und Verharmlosen. Denn: Acta ist erst der Anfang. Laut Heribert Prantl von der Süddeutschen ist das Gesetz nur die Lokomotive, die später mal die Waggons mit dem Gefahrgut ziehen soll: »Die EU-Kommission will sich vom EU-Gerichtshof eine TÜV-Plakette für die Lok und grünes Licht für den gesamten Zug geben lasen.«

Realtime

»On a stretch of 2 kilometers, seven inner city situations will be doubled on Potsdamer Straße, which was once representational for the city of Berlin and is today used very heterogeneously. On selected points of the whole street, “doubles” will appear at an interval of 70 cm from the existing objects, as if a tracing-paper duplication of a map of the city had slipped a bit away from the original beneath it. The focus thereby will be on easily overlooked street furnishings like streetlights, bus stops, and clocks.« Realtime by inges idee.

Skeleton Coast

By the 1980s, the island of Margarita in Venezuela transfigured its landscape with a number of unfinished construction projects. Lots of them have become part of daily life. Alexander Apóstol has documented the effects in his slightly weird series »Skeleton Coast«.

A Natural History

Ambrotype photography by Noah Doely. About the work: »Noah Doely is an artist currently based in San Diego finishing up his MFA at UCSD. His recent body of work titled »A Natural History« constructs fictional narratives derived from prominent figures such as Charles Darwin and their research around life sciences. Beginning first by carefully crafting scenes that the artists constructs himself, Doely then uses the ambrotype photographic process with a wet collodion plate to capture an image that feels as old as the subject matter he investigates.«
