From Tokyo, Export to World
Back from Tokyo. Was really wonderful. I need to go back as soon as possible, it’s just so much fun there that I just want to turn Wapanese. Took some photos too.
The Dislocate-symposium was very inspiring, you might want to take a look at the coverage on WMMNA. Buttons was exhibited in a tiny space and unfortunately the Agfa-button cracked on the second day. Wasn’t that bad since the camera still works, but I suppose that I have to make a button myself for the next exhibition – the 30-year-old plastic seems to be too brittle. I made two new cases and have documented the making to some extent, for anyone who might be interested.
Up next, after a week of vacation, will be a workshop at Ars Electronica in Linz, titled Export to World. Linda and I have been invited by Aram Bartholl to be part of the Second City-event, so we will be helping people make 3D-papercraft-models of objects that we will have selected and extracted from Second Life. More on that as it progresses.
