Forgot to mention, I'll have a piece in the upcoming show at Pratt Institute's Schafler Gallery: What is Sustainability? Pratt Students Respond. My submission is a good continuation of the obsessive documentation that The Tomorrow Archive was built upon.
February 10 - March 10, opening February 9th 4-6pm.

Two new pages of work. Check 'em out below:
As mentioned previously, I had a group show at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn last week with Heather Lang, Mike Stone and Matthew J Ramada. All of whom killed it with their own sorts of subversive artwork. I showed two bodies of work: The Tomorrow Archive and Only Map Left. The former in conjunction with the infamous Rebellion for Autonomous Future. Long live RAF!

New show at Pratt Institute on January 25! I'm lucky enough to represent Brooklyn for the Rebellion for Autonomous Future's annual stewardship. The RAF is a sort of underground movement that works against the flow of an expected future. I'll have more on their doctrine when I get up the post for the show. For now this means that they'll bring some artifacts from The Tomorrow Archive to display at the show. The above flyer is just for the RAF and myself, but the weeklong show will also feature work by Heather Lang, Michael Livingstone and Matthew Ramada. Opening reception January 25 at 5pm.
Also be sure to check out Manifest Future an RAF blog dedicated to tracking the progress of reality's emulation of the future depicted in mass media:

This winter, give the gift of knowledge...
of stellar phenomena... inside plastic bubbles...
New project! Click the image above to see more. Basically it's low tech
urban education. A gift exchange to disrupt traditional views of what a classroom is, and what to expect form public space in general.
In other news, the Bookah continues its longer-than-expected dispaly at Buffalo Street Books. So if you're in Ithaca NY any time soon go check it out.

New work previewed here! I've got a ton of stuff that will be in an exhibition early in 2010. Most of it will have to wait till then to be properly documented in situ, but enjoy a few new images.
In other news I finally put together some footage I had of the Bookah, resulting in a short video:

So as a tie-in to the continuing Bookah exhibit at Buffalo Street Books, I've arranged for the danger sticker on the side of the Bookah to be mass produced... You can get it in two sizes at Buffalo Street Books. Much thanks to the folks there, and anyone who's gone to sniff some wisdom. Send me an email if you're interested in ordering stickers; I'll see what can be done. Check it out:
Sorry about the lack of updates lately, I'm producing, but the work won't be complete for a while. In the meantime, I'll find some good things to post.

Cyborgs are here.
New conceptual drawings; anatomy is the new market.
