Monday, May 11th, 2009“La performance-installation et les relations d’acte-archivage
Dans ma démarche de performance-installation, mon sujet explore le rapport entre l’acte et l’archivage par le moyen d’une pratique et d’une discussion théorique étroitement alignées, qui interroge certaines conditions du contexte social actuel.
Coulant dans la veine des recherches antérieures et actuelles de la performance et de l’installation qui explorent notamment un rapprochement de l’art à la vie, l’intention des quatre œuvres réalisées dans le cadre de cette recherche-pratique était de créer un sens de multiples valeurs de présence, en rendant plus immédiate la nature processuel du présent et de l’émergence de l’histoire.
Cette multiplicité, qualificative importante de ce que j’appelle l’acte-archivage, implique un détournement et un dépaysement des codes et des paramètres de certaines structures qui encadrent la vie quotidienne. En outre, elle interroge des systèmes de valeurs liés aux processus d’histoire et à la connaissance.
J’ai remis en cause les prémisses de la spécialisation et de la normalisation en considérant les limites de leurs perspectives en fonction de la séparation, de la dualité ainsi que de la hiérarchie qui les marquent. Cette considération est présentée en termes d’une critique de l’orthodoxie et du canon.
À partir de cette critique, j’élabore une terminologie pertinente à la méthodologie du sujet, marquée par la simultanéité des registres et des perspectives parfois opposés et par une matrice créatrice – une partition-trajectoire – qui intervient dans les schémas des phénomènes quotidiens.
Étant donné que la question d’acte-archivage dans cette praxis interdisciplinaire consiste à explorer la situation du corps – individuellement et collectivement – l’assomption d’un art contextuel est ici primordiale. Donc, en plus du discours artistique et philosophique il y a une quantité significative de discours sociologique, de même que politique et économique.
Ce discours introduit la description des œuvres qui voudraient agir sur les conditions de distanciation et de séparation, que je nomme des décalages. Trois performances-installations expérimentent la création de l’espace actif-archival par moyen de l’actualisation et du déplacement de données et de phénomènes. Deux particularités émergent : la création d’une collection en action, que je nomme la masse-critique, dans une œuvre qui a une durée prolongée.
Une dernière œuvre fait converger les considérations artistiques et sociales par sa réalisation d’une collection qui interroge des stratégies d’archivage scientifique et commercial. Ce travail donne sur l’articulation future d’une épistémologie en lien étroit avec la prémisse anarchique de cette démarche.”
Julie Bacon here defines performance installation through the purposeful and exploratory acts of the human body in a conversation affected and effecting the surrounding environment and socio-politico-economic-etc context.
What is interesting here is her thesis, where she delineates her departure from performance installation into the hyperarchived world of acting, we can discern a theorical construction with actor as a performer of an installation which by repetition becomes the archival of an act.
Performance installation’s reflectivity eventually likens to actuality and performance as an act affects the site in terms of corporal situation epistemologically narrowed.
Discriminating between consumerist and scientific uses of performance installation would be helpful in determining forms of existence that promote peace and coexistence among all humans. This is being created in awareness of increasing corporate installations site-less sites, such as labeled “blank life” abstracted spaces; places where the best interest is that of movement of money and not of religion or expression of diverse cultures. Much like a cult, money worship and flow prime a societal slate that is ready to embed new ways of living and movement. This is where successful performance installation shall modell and shape conceptual and physical structures through way.
Julie Bacon parle de sa démarche car elle pense a performance installation comme dissipant la réalité de l’existence pure. Actes archivées dans le temps reflètent le passé et la présence dedans le cadre de l’acte-archivage. L’effet du mouvement corporel, le mouvement de la situation, et la nature de l’environnement en termes de la présence de la personne détournent le travail de l’artiste du devoir vers négligence sociale. C’est á dire qu’on aura difficulté á trouver du profit humanitaire ou capital de la performance installation parce que l’acte a archiver dépends intègrement de la pertinence sociale ou agent politique de l’artiste même dans les vies et structures affectées. Ici nous dégoûtons la nécessité de la célébrité et notabilité pour achever excellence en expression de ce type d’installation.

Himno Minero de Lota, a mural show
Thursday, April 23rd, 2009The painting you shall experience is a homage to the song of the miners local to Lota, the Chilean heart of coal, which for decades promoted the sustainable lifestyle of a woman’s desire to enrich her homeland with the growth of the entire country, as energy was supplied willingly by the mine in its harmonious interaction with humanity, the ocean, the local fauna, flora, and aesthetic concern.
LOTA will become one of thousands of painted canvasses that shall be sewn together into a quilt that will, for a peace-promoting event, cover the pyramids at Giza in love for the arts and life. This will also coincide with lining up of planets, impressing this cosmic event with good vibrations in the culmination of this twelve-year-long project set up by Joanne and Fouad Tawfilis. I have yet to learn the date of this festival, but following the quilting, the murals will go on tour through museums in the world, so if you can’t make it to Giza, you may still be able to see the artwork at your local museum eventually in 2010-2015 ![]()

tv
Wednesday, January 7th, 2009to start, hating tv isnt “way”
tv is definitely way though
ok so i have to explain myself and why i hate tv and why it is that i see no difference between the movie theatre, mall screens, traffic screens, home tv, and going to the homies to watch tv over there.
really, much like reading books, tv is about staring at a surface.
STARING AT A SURFACE
i have had some creaaaazy ass trips staring at blank space.
much more entertainning than staring at canned information
so i guess i hate tv and its tvness because it kills creativity?
well no.
i have some crazy ideas when i watch others peoples work created for mass absorption and regurgitation
sometimes my most brrilliant ideas come from analyzing that ish
but why dont i waste my time doing that?
well it will happen eventually.
or really, you want to watch tv for me and tell me what you see?
i actually like that much better
but this does not mean i have conversations about tv
thats sooo 2004 and its like far from there yo
why is it 2004? because i had this “bf< ?" dude who didnt believe me when i told him i watched tv
he was like YOU LIE and i was like wtf no
i used to watch tv w my parents when i was little. sometimes i did it with my nanny.
you know, its the american thing to do.
for the people that have read all the books they need to read and written all the papers that they need to write, and for those that definitely have made their time's and money's worth each day and really can leave all the laundry to the housekeeper and can totally even have the time to smoke a ciggie and drink some wine, since like life has been good and its time to relax. you know, the american thing to do is to waste learning time.
so i started coloring while watching tv. as a little girl. or constructing paper dolls or something
it was rare that i ONLY watched tv. i had to be reaaaallly sick (not ill ill but like watching tv at the hospital because my hands were full of needles) for that and even then i would rather daydream than watch cartoon netwrk reruns in english/portuguese/spanish/french/german all day
i guess it was kinda cool to watch the same cartoon in different languages... i guess thats how they test ratings / education levels?
but the news n shit? well thats different. thats not tv
news is that which you HAVE to watch or youll have to listen to it from the radio
and you dont want to be behind in the news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
all the other toddlers will make fun of you for not staying current
well i havent really said anything about why i hate watching tv
or maybe i did
i dont know.
OOOOOOOOh its reality tv that i hate
well i dont really hate it
i love some shows
like those that korean people go on to sing songs and show off their amazing kid
those are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COOOOOOOOOL
but its way better on youtube
or maybe not. http://fattylinebacker.blogspot.com had a pretty nice post about the guitarplaying cutie
but my favorite all time is this little bitch:
Yoo Ee Yun
well i dont know if you can call this potential of any sort.. this kid just pours out love and talent nonstop and crstal clear! shes already there fosho
the message is still the same. loveway.
so ok. i highly doubt you’ve made it this far reading……………………………………… si im going to continue writing
instead of being born the shit, chileans tend to take a REALLY LONG TIME to make cool shit happen (alejandro jodorowsky, isabel allende, pablo neruda, gabriela mistral, catalina vallejos)
and somehow its always ridiculous and insightful fucked up?????? im amazed by this wtf??
NOTE: sabor “churrasco” = meat sandwich flavouring
yes, EVERY meal looks like that. the shape of the rice changes. my mom’s rice usually looked like this:

this is arroz con carne but como los chinos since its not a steak. just look at the rice. thats my rice.
can you imagine having a culture shock because the rice looks messy on the plate?? it was almost unedible at first.
like wtf? why is my rice NOT in a cute donutshape??????????????
some people like to put primavera on the rice so it looks like theres peas and corn in it, but really, there isnt. ok. maybe one or two peas in the whole donut and a piece of carrot here and there, but that shit really sucks. blank rice rules.
and awwwww little kids always using cutlery makes me feel whole
especially as a secret hipster i tend to only use chopsticks with my food. my mom doesnt care though…. my dad forced us all to learn to eat cantonese food the cantonese way from day one. you know, the little rice bowl with the big metal bbq machine thing that will burn your eyelashes and the multiple glasses and messy dishes that require lots of napkin action that is in NO WAY related to dim-sum (sp?) (u need to check out zing-wha if u’re ever in concepcion. if its still there. its on chacabuco con anibal pinto? maybe closer to prat) its possible that im getting my shit confused. its been a while. but everything was either red or green lots of gold and hot ladies in mini skirts and lots of eyeliner to minimize the eyes since they always had a chinese girl shortage. OH and the most beautiful dragons ALL over the walls and pillars and immense tanks of exotic fish that stare and you can eat someday if your dad feels especially morbid.
i went to a frog restaurant next to the beach once and my brothers and i made our food race each other. i cant remember which beach. but my frog was FATTEST and could barely jump. when it did, it was the most powerful skip and totally blasted the other frogs
and then one of them died because itBURST!
there is no point.
i have been working diligently on my research! lots of new data coming in! DONT FORGET TO GET YOUR OWN LOLLIPOP!!!!!!!!!
