Eye of the Beholder – Open Call
Michele Manfellotto, autore della rubrica di Nero Heaven Is Knowing Who You Are, ha cominciato una raccolta di materiale video e fotografico relativo a tutti gli eventi di Maxximalism.
Il progetto, provvisoriamente intitolato Eye Of The Beholder, mira alla composizione di un’opera collettiva, un montaggio di frammenti girati dal pubblico con apparecchi di uso quotidiano, dalle videocamere ai telefoni cellulari, rovesciando il punto di osservazione e privilegiando la descrizione dell’esperienza individuale rispetto alla registrazione pura e semplice dell’evento.
Non si tratta insomma di produrre un documentario, piuttosto un cut-up visivo e sonoro di punti di vista personali sulle nuove forme che ha assunto nel ventunesimo secolo il rito immortale del concerto.

Ryan Trecartin Any Ever at MOCA
Ryan Trecartin Any Ever will open Friday, July 16th at the MOCA Pacific Design Center. Ryan Trecartin defines himself a video and visual artist. As written on his YouTube channel he is interested in exploring through his work the implications of social networking technologies and Web 2.0 on identity and the web of subjectivity. In his work the conceptual value is significant but his videos are simply humorous, insane and acutely critical.
Mike Bones at MAXXI – 08/07/2010 – 7 pm
Tomorrow: NERO presents Mike Bones live at MAXXI. Bones is a singer-songwriter based in New York. He is one of the most appreciated guitar players of the New York independent scene, and a fine example of a new type of deep contemporary songwriting, one that experiments on the song-form using voice and guitar.
