Computer Science 101: Gates And Google
InformationWeek – Jun 3, 2008
It’s kind of like an oversized day care center albeit one where the intellectual property is closely guarded code not construction paper taped to the walls. I took some pictures of the under-construction Gates Center for Computer Science and Google Pittsburgh. Sometime soon we’ll also be posting video interviews with Google engineering manager Kamal Nigam and from the site of the construction project with CMU professor of computer science Manuela Veloso.

Digital Vandalism at Shafrazi Gallery
Village Voice – Jun 3, 2008
However Shafrazi did manage to parlay his notoriety into lucrative art-mongering for the Shah of Iran; after the ayatollahs made that untenable he peddled graffiti artists in Soho. Fast-forward to a recent show in Shafrazi’s Chelsea gallery which reprised such ’80s stablemates as Keith Haring and Kenny Scharf and then add an intervention by gallerist Gavin Brown artist Urs Fischer and a high-resolution camera and you get vandalism updated for our digital age. Brown and Fischer photographed Shafrazi’s exhibition of the graffiti gang in situ transformed the results into trompe l’oeil wallpaper replete with the shadows of frames and reflections in glass then pasted the images back up on the walls in the exact same positions as the original show. The topper is works by artists from other generations displayed over the hi-res knockoffs: A Malcolm Morley painting of crashing planes and ships hangs athwart a photo of one of Haring’s radiating cartoon canvases; an exuberant John Chamberlain sculpture fairly leaps from in front of the towering facsimile of a Donald Bachelor collage painting. Particularly striking is a gray untitled Francis Bacon portrait half obliterated by vertical brushstrokes which smolders like cremation ashes atop the digital remains of Scharf’s colorful gibbering biomorphs. Lily van der Stokker has painted flat acrylic waves and blubbery curves over the photographic wallpaper her confectionary blues and pinks adding a third layer of imagery; a fourth dimension appears when a guard stands next to his digitized doppelgänger… For seven years Peter Beste has been photographing purveyors of Norwegian black-metal music a witches’ brew of Satanism paganism stage blood and pummeling beats born amid the Norse country’s winter darkness. Despite the subcult’s penchant for arson suicide and murder it’s the less sensational shots that capture the willful marginalization of its true believers: The driver of a tiny car is confronted by a skinny grim reaper toting a massive scythe; passersby stare at a musician’s zombie-style makeup. One striking image evokes curdled Nordic myths in the corpse paint and black leathers of a paunchy dude rambling like a troll through a moss-encrusted forest. Steven Kasher 521 W 23rd 212-966-3978. Peter Schjeldahl: ‘Let’s See’A master of stacking dead-on adjectives atop descriptive nouns (“antic brawn” and “majestic brain” for Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns respectively) Peter Schjeldahl avoids the jargon that lends so much art criticism the charm of a physics dissertation. This collection of his reviews for The New Yorker includes the usual suspects such as Vermeer (whose “silence-drenched paintings mostly of unremarkable domestic scenes” are “blatant and ineffable like the Sphinx”) and Pollock (“the artist’s last major drip painting [was] Blue Poles (1952) whose eponymous forms snarl like overloaded lighting rods”).
