  1. har varit passiv här ett tag för att jag skriver på en nördig bok om fototeori.

    på en månad (!) har jag blivit nästan klar med innehållet. så går det när man har koll på sina grejer, tänker fort/snabbt/stort/effektivt, och dessutom skriver snabbt. OCH samarbetar med en AI för textrespons. då går det undan.

    det kan rentav bli så att den släpps på kindle/amazon framåt jul! 😮🙏🤶🏻📷✨

  3. I had never heard of Lu Märten before my reading this evening.

    I am sure that my ignorance will strike some as at best laughable.

  4. Algorithm, Image, Art by @machine_agency
    An essential and critical inquiry into how algorithmic media reshape visual culture—from ancient optics to generative AI.

  6. "Alex against Artspeak". Podcast.

    "I’ve got a fun challenge for you. I’m going to read to you two excepts of descriptions of works of art. Your challenge is to guess who the artist is in each case."

  7. Ich "wusste" das schon mal, dass #Benjamin & #AbyWarburg ganz ähnliche Vibes haben (wie der Rezensent hier so toll für Warburg formuliert "drawing method out of magical thinking"), aber ohne die Serendipity, zufällig heute in diesem LRB zu blättern, hätte ich das null mehr auf dem Schirm gehabt.

  8. Exploring the ethereal yet intricate erudition of ERG's 'cloud' installation at #Rijksmuseum. A marvel from 1970 by Pieter Boersma that challenges conventional thought. Who's up for a dive into art and theory?

  9. The Bullshit Language of Art, Paper:

    philpapers.org/rec/UNBATB

    "Pseudo-profound language is a stylistic means in many different contexts, like advertising, politics, economics, or even science. Contemporary visual art is notoriously known for its variant: artspeak...."

  14. Would you like to see some art history/ theory posts from me (BA Fine Art, Höns)?

    Or add other suggestions in the comments.

    I might start with queer art history as it's LGBTQ history month in the UK.

  15. Cracker - Truckload of Art

    From the sadly deleted album Countrysides. On this one, the boys ponder the meaning of art without context. And trucking. And art. And yodeling. #music #musique #Cracker #Art #ArtTheory

  16. 1/2

    Nonceptualism as defined, with minor editing, by ChatGPT. Two definitions have been generated thus far, of which this was the first:

    Nonceptualism is an adaptive art theory that suggests that certain forms of knowledge or awareness do not require the use of concepts or mental representations. This can include knowledge of the immediate, pre-reflective experience of perception, as well as knowledge of one's own mental states.

  17. Viva Magenta -- this outrageous pinkish-purplish red -- is #Pantone's 2023 color of the year!

    But did you know that "according to color scientists, 📢 #magenta does not technically exist. 📢 There’s no wavelength of light that corresponds to magenta. It is simply that place where blue fades into red."

  18. Any #ArtHistory folks out there have good resources to share about the topic of artists sharing "behind the scenes"? I'm thinking academic literature about studio visits, artists making instructional videos, basically anything from the world of #ArtTheory on "how it's made" type content in the art world. I think it's tangent to the idea of #provenance in #curation, but not exactly the same topic? Also related to identity and anti-"white cube" sentiments. Let me know! #art #history

  19. Hello brave new mastodony world! I guess I'll introduce myself for posterity:

    I'm a #polytheist #pagan and practicing #zen #buddhist #mexicayotl (a revived #religion based on the traditions of my ancestors in #mexico). I mostly talk about #theology, #history, #meditation, #art and #arttheory, #antihumanism and #posthumanism, #decolonialism, #transrights, #ancestorwork, and #monasticism among other things.

    Hoping to get to know some folks here, as well as lure more people away from Twatter 👀
