Urban Stargazing
Urban Stargazing - Royal College of Art 2011
Over time, society has developed a complex rhythm that demands we live in an environment artificially lit twenty-four hours a day preventing us from experiencing the natural lights coming from billions of light years away, shining and twinkling as soon as the Sun sets to the west. The Urban Stargazing project focuses on bringing back the stars in the city sky by recreating existing constellations and adding new ones, narrating old and contemporary myths about London. Twelve groups of stars have been installed at different locations in the city, and can only be observed by the naked eye at night time. Below is the map showing each constellation with their corresponding coordinates. To go on a stargazing walk, enter the latitude/longitude of any constellation on a web mapping application. Alternatively, follow the link to the Google map. View Urban Stargazing in a larger map.
I am following the developments at Dale Farm, which is being forcefully evicted by the police since this morning. It may be that technically the people living at Dale Farm are 'illegal' by the letter of the law, but I seriously question the way in which the British Government and police force are being used to push through the law. I am not sure why there wasn't a more peaceful and longer dialogue between the parties involved and I don't totally understand the implications of Dale Farm residents staying or why it is not possible to find alternative space. But there are people living there and having done so for a number of years. Is it really necessary to use so much force and violence against people who just want to live in a different way than most Western people in the 'modern' world? Comparing these images to the riots I personally witnessed on my doorstep in Hackney this summer, it is not easy to understand why the Police are using taser guns against the people living in Dale Farm. Why is it okay to use them there in this situation and why weren't they being used during the riots when people caused serious damage and caused major disruption and fear in many communities?

Brasilia: Working Plan Or Utopian Blueprint?
The long-awaited start into the final year of the BA (Hons) Interior Design course at the LCC, I am beginning to write my dissertation about Brasilia. What are your thoughts on Brasilia?
The London College of Communication has a new cafe/bistro/meeting space on the ground floor level, designed by LCC alumni Morag Myerscough with Supergroup. The new bar and food counter feature the award winning Plumen pendant lights and lovely, yet pricey snacks and drinks for the emerging creative. The stools featuring 1988 letraset typefaces are used in combination with beautiful color-laminated tables and vintage school chairs (photo to follow!). Job well done!

"For one hour starting at noon, SABER wrote across the sky circling downtown L.A. Aside from shouting out his crew, he called for an end to the mural moratorium the city has affronted on its citizens. Since graffiti and street art are being attacked by the bureaucrats, he took to the air, right over City Hall. Shouldn’t be much of a surprise since SABER had the world’s largest graffiti piece in the L.A. riverbanks over a decade ago."

Strata #4
Quayola has created a new multi-screen video-installation to be premiered on the 7-9th October 2011, at the renowned Palais des Beaux Arts in Lille, France’s second museum after the Louvre, as the opening of their 2011-2012 season. An exclusive password protected excerpt is available for you to watch here. Quayola's mesmerising piece, Strata#4, is part of his on-going series of films, prints and site-specific installations for the project devised to challenge accepted perceptions of classical art, architecture and iconography.
Using a series of paintings from the Palais des Beaux Arts' Flemish collection and specifically focusing on the Rubens grand altarpieces, Strata #4 strips away the outer layers of dramatic symbolism from the masterpieces and explores the world beneath their figurative skins. Quayola uses custom software to decode the rules present in the proportion, composition and colour of each painting, defining colour palettes, patterns and structures, and generating new abstract geometries following those very same rules. Strata #4 describes the journey from the original masterpieces to contemporary digital abstractions, transforming from a recognisable reality into a colour-saturated and calculated fabrication, pulsing and mutating in a stunning sequence of geometric formations. Launching at the Palais des Beaux Arts in Lille on 7th October, Strata #4 will be shown as a large-scale diptych installation located in the atrium alongside the related original paintings used in the film.
