Chicago-based artist Naama Arad shredded hundreds of Xerox prints to form a large curtain installation. The many small strips merge together into an image of a monument that we might see online or in travel books. Blurring the boundaries between interior and exterior, Arad’s work creates a wonderful illusion of depth on a two-dimensional flat surface. This installation was part of EL AL at the Midrasha Gallery of Art, Tel Aviv.

This mix was made for the advent calendar 2012 of the befriended blog Kraftfuttermischwerk where you can still find it.
Anyways, we re-released the mix now with a new cover (and deleted the old text because it doesn’t fit anymore…We ask for your understanding) (Downloadlink at end of this post)

Great for young and old: »This short is an exploration into the Clouds. The idea of clouds singing and performing their duties in a joyful manner show us that everything in our world has a role and a purpose. A sweet visual soundscape that takes the viewer through a personal journey into the sky. Sing, dance and relax as you follow a sweet cast of clouds and raindrops through an entrancing adventure you’ll wish to take over and over again.« Cloudy is a short by Miami based art collaborative FriendsWithYou. This sweetness makes you happy for a while.
Ich kann es mir nicht verkneifen, hähhh, Spanier? Das Land ist ja nicht gerade das Zentrum des Turnschuhs. Trotzdem: von Handclap bis Hoppelhops alles dabei.

French conceptual artist Michel Blazy makes rare use of white foam. His latest installation called »Bouquet Final« was located inside a 13th century monastery near the Jardin des Plantes in Paris. This free-flowing, floodable substance was bubbling a collection of amazing cloud formations into the classic architecture of the building in an impressive way. The foam was produced by a generator from behind the installation. For more examples of Blazy’s work, visit his gallery. Beware: installation is not suitable for foam parties.

Summer is gone, music is still there… Just like Apparat’s music and taste. His latest podcast published at the end of August also works in winter. Whenever a mild action is essential, take a pinch of it.
