We Live in Public Synopsis[edit] The film's website describes how, "With Quiet, Harris proved how, in the not-so-distant future of life online, we will willingly trade our privacy for the connection and recognition we all deeply desire. Through his experiments, including another six-month stint living under 24-hour live surveillance online which led him to mental collapse, he demonstrated the price we will all pay for living in public." "He climbs into the TV set and he becomes the rat in his own experiment at this point, and the results don't turn out very well for him,[5]" says Timoner of the six-month period Harris broadcast his life in his NYC loft live online. "He really takes the only relationship that he's ever had that was close and intimate and beaches it on 30 motion-controlled surveillance cameras and 66 invasive microphones.

Why the best British artists leave Run for the hills ... Chris Ofili, who left Britain to live in Trinidad. Photograph: Eamonn McCabe So here's a paradox. Constantly, the media tell us that London is this century's Manhattan or Paris, that Britain is the world's leading art capital. Yet I believe that in Manhattan in the 1960s you would actually have found artists living and working – and if Picasso had fled back to Barcelona, the Musée Picasso wouldn't have been in Paris.

Architecture & Art of Illusion: Mind-Boggling Wall Mural As your eye drifts right across the image, a strange sense of vertigo arises as a dull, familiar and repetitive gray concrete-and-glass facade gives way to a mind-blowing montage of eccentric proportions – an information overload that short-circuits our built-in mental pattern recognition software (and just imagine it at full size). No, you have not gone insane … though you might if you look too long at this giant 10-by-40-foot wall mural by EVOL, part of an art exhibition in Paris. The little potted plants in front of the ‘building’ give you some sense of scale, but not much. The combination of rough-textured surface materials, spilled gray paint and clipped window photographs make this piece convincing even up close – except for the odd outlet sticking through here or there … or most notably: the giant crunch-point created where an existing steel ceiling beam seems to have dropped in through the roof.

Nikolaus Gansterer - Objects Yet To Become With 'Objects Yet To Become' (2016 -) Nikolaus Gansterer develops a series of situative and speculative objects that challenge visitors and passers-by to participate in actions. With simple poetic instructions for such actions – lasting from a few seconds up to a few minutes – the audience is invited to realize and perform them in public or private spaces. By directly addressing an "affective other" the artist is interested in how an object could be extended along the categories of time and space, movement and imagination: how, for example, a line of thought might become a line in space; a line verbalized, be activated by the whole body, becoming a "time-based object in the making – full of potentialities".

Gerry Judah: Art from the ruins - Features - Art These troglodytes, whole families of them, had fled from their own ruins in southern Lebanon – bombed by the Israelis – to seek sanctuary in bigger ruins. They were there with their children and their grandparents, with a litter of precious pots and bowls and gas fires and damp bedding, gaunt in the winter cold as the rain guttered down the walls, sweating through the humid summers until the bulldozers came to drive them out. Beirut, 1990.
