SUMMARY:Metropolarity for New Museum Seminars: (Temporary) Collections of Ideas around SPECULATION
DESCRIPTION:Join Metropolarity on a Sunday afternoon at New York’s NEW MUSEUM for their public seminar series\, this season themed SPECULATION. Metropolarity will be in dialogue with New School scholars/designers/media theorists Ed Keller and Orit Halpern\, addressing speculative realist philosophy and future-oriented speculative thought through fiction and design work. Say what. \nThis focus on sustained research and ideas in development stimulated the establishment of the Seminar series\, in which small groups of multidisciplinary thinkers gather over a three-month period to consider the Education Department’s Seasonal thematic\, with pressing conversations related to art and the expanded art context examined in relation to broader issues in society. Entitled New Museum Seminars: (Temporary) Collections of Ideas\, the series directly references the Museum’s history of “collecting” ideas\, rather than art objects. The goal of the Seminars is to provide a platform for discussing\, debating\, and enacting ideas as they emerge\, in real time\, and to develop scholarship or other forms of joint creative production relating to art’s place in culture. The Seminars utilize some recognizable graduate-level and reading-group pedagogical strategies\, such as syllabi and weekly closed\, peer-led reading sessions\, but are distinguished by their context within the contemporary art museum. In addition to the weekly sessions\, there is institutional support for some form of group production to grow out of the shared course of study (conferences\, performance residencies\, online publications\, Resource Center exhibitions\, etc.). A group of approximately fifteen participants from various backgrounds (including artists\, dancers\, curators\, critics\, educators\, and scholars\, but also those with specialties not directly art-related) constitute each Seminar group\, along with R&D Season artists in residence and New Museum Education Department staff members who work on the topic. Unique among museums\, the Seminar truly functions as a “think tank” within a programming and exhibitionary institution\, fostering new ideas and work between outside and intra-institutional participants (in the past\, New Museum curators\, editors\, researchers\, and educators have also applied). \n

SUMMARY:SINGULARITY: THE ONE-PIECE FEST
DESCRIPTION:o N e \nI was talking about time. It’s so hard for me to believe in it. Some things go. Pass on. Some things just stay. I used to think it was my rememory. You know. Some things you forget. Other things you never do. But it’s not. Places\, places are still there. If a house burns down\, it’s gone\, but the place—the picture of it—stays\, and not just in my rememory\, but out there\, in the world. What I remember is a picture floating around out there outside my head. I mean\, even if I don’t think it\, even if I die\, the picture of what I did\, or knew\, or saw is still out there. Right in the place where it happened \nALEX SMITH\nNEGATIVE INFINITY\nWILL\nLOW MOAN HOVER ( EX BY V)\nDIANNE (TROPHY WIFE)\nDOG DAYS\nST.

SUMMARY:SCREAMING QUEENS + EX. BY V. + ALEX SMITH + VOYAGER + HEATHER HOLEPUNCHER
DESCRIPTION:Screaming Queens (Vancouver)\nS/T – Psychedelia by Screaming Queens \nex. by v.\nshifted red by EX. By V. \nAlex Smith\nSmith is a queer black activist\, poet\, dj\, actor\, musician\, afro punk/afro-futurist chronicler of the naughty universe. Smith’s work speaks to the edge\, to the post-fringe dystopia slowly creeping upon us. Too cantankerous and flamboyant for the Saul Williams wanna-be/def poetry set\, too tribal for academia\, Smith paints viral inscriptions for an audience of armed pixie insurrectionists. He is the founder and curator of the queer-empowered Laser Life sci-fi reading series. Alex’s short story collection\, “Gang Stalk Oprah“\, with its lines hashed like an SAT-word injected SEPTA bus graffiti\, will kidnap you\, convert you\, shoot you in the leg and then set you free. \nVoyager\nhttp://sssybtch.wordpress.com/ \nHeather Holepuncher \nflyer design: negatecity.tumblr.com \nall ages\n5$ (no one turned away for lack of funds)\nsee you soon!!
