The code that makes our piece “Personal Photographs” run was written with our amazing collaborator David Huerta. It’s a self-contained network between two Raspberry Pis, which copy images to each other, forever. The code is available here: https://github.com/huertanix/pi2pi
“Data Doubles” is our ongoing solo exhibition Team Gallery, Los Angeles.
“Personal Photographs, September 2009” (2019) is a network of cable trays around and throughout the exhibition site.
The cable trays represent an infrastructure disposed toward invisibility, made conspicuously present within the domestic site of the bungalow. In navigating real space and contending with pre-existing structures, they mirror the assimilation of the internet’s operations into everyday life.
All the photos we shot in September 2009 – 142 files – are in constant circulation within the cables. Images without viewers, yet always there. Like most images nowadays.
Super excited to open our first solo show in Los Angeles at Team Gallery on Sunday May 12!!!
There are three works in the show: one tiny sculpture, one projected video and one site-specific installation, each of which center around the creation and transmission of images, and the increasing interconnectedness of those two processes.
Photos of the exhibition “Snap + Share: Transmitting Photographs from Mail Art to Social Networks“, that just opened at SFMOMA. Guess what we’re showing?
Made a new lolcat sculpture inspired by the “What Has Been Seen Cannot Be Unseen” meme. “What Has Been Seen” is a black taxidermy cat, sitting on a microwave containing an erased hard drive (’cause it’s been microwaved).
No Fun, installed on a bed at The Current Museum, New York…
We’re hiring a studio manager, one day a week to start, $400 a month, must be based in NYC, be super organized (Mr Wolf kinda style) and have previous experience. We’d meet a few times and then most of the work will be done remotely. You’ll help organizing exhibitions, shipments, writing, archives, applications and deadlines, deadlines and more deadlines… pls drop us a short email by December, about yourself, what you’re good at, your future plans etc. Thanks!
Renderings of the works we’re showing at the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art, for the show “I Was Raised on the Internet”, curated by Omar Kholeif. They were made for the catalogue, they’re a brilliant mix of actual installation shots – done in the museum – and 3D renderings, and it’s rather hard to tell what’s what (which is the point of course nowadays).
