[spectre] SPECTRE OF CAPITAL – a cherry z. guggenheim museum – open until May 5th in Berlin - Mitte
Hi spectre people, I'd like to inform you about my temporary museum "SPECTRE OF CAPITAL" – a 3D-audiowalk / site-specific installation / museum in the basement of a former coin-production place in the center of Berlin: SPECTRE OF CAPITAL - a 3D Audio Play - MONEY MOVES into the vault, the nursery, the TV, the CV. As moisturizer, as language, as the way in which stories are told, as structural inequality. MONEY MASQUERADES as grandmother, romance, sorrow and trouble, chance. As individual talent, team spirit, nature, board game, ironic comment, necessity. CHERRY Z. GUGGENHEIM presents SPECTRE OF CAPITAL: a 3D audio play along the marketscapes of social relations and through the labyrinth of value production - to look into how the SPECTRE OF CAPITAL pervades the common sense.

[spectre] NEW ISSUE! A Peer-Reviewed Journal About MACHINE RESEARCH
NEW ISSUE! A Peer-Reviewed Journal About MACHINE RESEARCH http://www.aprja.net/machine-research/ The latest edition of APRJA is about Machine Research – research on machines, research with machines, and research as a machine. It thus explores machinic perspectives to suggest a situation where the humanities are put into a critical perspective by machine driven ecologies, ontologies and epistemologies of thinking and acting. It aims to engage research and artistic practice that takes into account the new materialist conditions implied by nonhuman techno-ecologies. These include new ontologies and intelligence such as machine learning, machine reading and listening (Geoff Cox, Sam Skinner & Nathan Jones, Brian House), systems-oriented perspectives to broadcast communication and conflict (John Hill, Dave Young), the ethics and aesthetics of autonomous systems (Maya Indira Ganesh, Maja Bak Herrie), and other post-anthropocentric reconsiderations of materiality and infrastructure (Abelardo Gil-Fournier, Etherbox interview). The journal issue has been organised in the context of ever elusive, the 2017 edition of transmediale festival of art and digital culture, Berlin, and follows a workshop co-organised with Constant association for art and media, Brussels.
