  19. "In 1976, deep in #NewYorkCity’s fiscal crisis, the #artist #MierleLadermanUkeles read a review of her conceptual work in the Village Voice. In his review, #critic #DavidBourdon made a radical suggestion inspired by #Ukeles’ thesis: What if #municipalwork, like the #Sanitation Department, were #conceptualart? Could it get funded by grants, instead of by the city?

    Ukeles presented the idea to Sanitation Department commissioner #AnthonyTVaccarello, who invited her to create #art for 10,000 sanitation #workers. The job would be unpaid. And, it turns out, she would keep it for nearly 50 years and counting.

    Now 86, Ukeles is the subject of the #documentary #film#MaintenanceArtist” directed by #Jewish #filmmaker #TobyPerlFreilich, which made its #NewYork #theatricalrelease last week at the #IFCTheater in #GreenwichVillage.

    The title refers to Ukeles’ 1969 #manifesto, which declared that the everyday activities often relegated to women[...] were “#maintenanceart.”

  25. Today's Ready Brief: Sanitation When Plumbing Stops Working

    Waste management without water. Emergency toilet solutions. Hygiene supplies for every kit.

    Free to read: thereadybrief.com

    #Preparedness #Sanitation #ReadyBrief

  26. If water stops flowing, your toilet stops working within one flush. No pressure = no flush. Sanitation becomes a health hazard in 24 hours.

    Emergency toilet: heavy-duty trash bags + kitty litter + your existing seat. Line, use, absorb, tie off, dispose outside.

    Not glamorous. Functional.
