Amy Karle creates artwork using the body to explore what it means to be human through a unique negotiation of art, design, science and technology. Leveraging the intelligence of human stem cells, she created “Regenerative Reliquary”, a bioprinted scaffold in the shape of a human hand design 3D printed in a biodegradable pegda hydrogel that disintegrates over time. The sculpture is installed in a bioreactor, with the intention that human Mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs from an adult donor) seeded onto that design will eventually grow into tissue and mineralize into bone along that scaffold. REGENERATIVE RELIQUARY, Amy Karle. 2016 #CreateDangerously #Nostr image
Most ppl think “we can't change: there's too much greed, too much consumerism" But none of those are innate in ppl. They aren't human nature. They're the products of culture, and cultures can change very quickly #Nostr #FreeFlow #Bitcoin
“In this consumaverse, the happiest humans are the ones who have sold the most of themselves and their time to the dystopia: becoming debt slaves already before finishing their education, only to enter a path of lifelong subjugation to mortgages and other subscriptions as they enter the workforce. They are preyed upon by a system which in turn parasitizes the planet. Being the prey of something that is already a parasite arguably is quite a drop down the pecking order, for a so-called supreme being.” -George Tsakraklides ‘Hallucinating Parasites and the War on Physics’ (2024) #Bitcoin #Anarchism #Freedom image

Karlheinz Stockhausen was arguably the ultimate revolutionary musician of the 20th Century. Called “one of the great visionaries of 20th-century music" and “the father of electronic music" for introducing controlled chance (aleatory techniques) into serial composition, and for musical spatialisation. He composed 370 individual epic works, including totally bonkers operas where mysticism, astrology and technology are violently weaved with human voices. Stockhausen claimed he was mentally linked to the universal continuum via the ancient civilisation of Sirius. He remarked at a press conference at a music festival in Hamburg six days after the 9/11 attacks made headlines that the destruction of the twin towers was “the greatest work of art imaginable for the whole cosmos.” Things went gone from bad to worse to incendiary when, like Batman’s Joker, he warmed to his theme: “Minds achieving something in an act that we couldn’t even dream of in music, people rehearsing like mad for ten years, preparing fanatically for a concert, and then dying; just imagine what happened there. You have people who are that focused on a performance and then 5,000 people are dispatched to the afterlife, in a single moment. I couldn’t do that. By comparison, we composers are nothing.” The Helikopter-Streichquartett is one of Stockhausen's best-known pieces, and one of the most complex to perform. It involves a string quartet, four helicopters with pilots, as well as audio and video equipment and technicians. It was first performed and recorded in 1995. Although performable as a self-sufficient piece, it also forms the third scene of the opera Mittwoch aus Licht. #CreateDangerously #NostrArt #Nostr 📷 album cover image
Greed is the lack of confidence of one's own ability to create -Vanna Bonta #CreateDangerously #Nostr #NostrArt 📷 “I Like America and America Likes Me”, (performance). Joseph Beuys. 1970. Beuys flew to New York, picked up by an ambulance, and swathed in felt, was transported to a room in the Rene Block Gallery. The room was also occupied by a wild coyote, and for the next three days, Beuys spent his time with the coyote in the small room, with little more than a felt blanket and a pile of straw. At the end of the three days, the coyote, allowed a hug from the artist, who was transported back to the airport via ambulance. Beuys never set foot on outside American soil nor saw anything of America other than the coyote and the inside of the gallery. image
