PWIFd (Places Where I’ve Fuck’d) (2013)

“PWIFd features a series of street views of Montreal, recording at first glance a seemingly ordinary panorama of cropped façades of buildings, street signs, empty parking lots, storefronts, and parks. The exhaustive documentary nature of this photographic collection reveals and austere portrait of the city, capturing both the built environment and the blurry faces of the pedestrians. Yet the subject of the photographs extends far beyond the blank canvas of the Google Street View images and the locations they document. The project is a personal record of all the places where the artist engaged in sexual acts, casually organized through online chat rooms and dating sites. “Neither a biography, nor a fiction,” the project exposes a constantly updated personal mythology coded with an abstract dictionary of hashtags describing the variety of sexual acts: #versa, #top. #oral. #bdsm, #w/s, #ff, #kinky. Playing with disclosure, anonymity, and surveillance, the project frames the spatial realities of mediated sexualities and queer spaces in the city.”

Looking Into the Past: 1906 San Francisco Earthquake - Market and Battery Streets

Newscopy (1954 Apr. 17): “BURNING CITY—Smoke, rubble and the skeletons of buildings are all that greeted the eye of daring when this photo was taken at Market and Battery streets in 1906. Market street is paved with cobblestones. On left can be seen mantle gas light standard, Market street’s original ‘path of gold’ and the Ferry building looming through smoke cloud. The street is littered with bricks and other debris.”

El Lizzisky, “Beat the Whites with the Red Wedge” (1919)

“Red Wedge was a collective of musicians who attempted to engage young people with politics in general, and the policies of the Labour Party in particular, during the period leading up to the 1987 general election, in the hope of ousting the Conservative government of Margaret Thatcher.

Fronted by Billy Bragg (whose 1985 Jobs for Youth tour had been a prototype of sorts for Red Wedge), Paul Weller and The Communards lead singer Jimmy Somerville, they put on concert tours and appeared in the media, adding their support to the Labour Party campaign. (from Wikipedia)”

noetherian:

“As an avid Pokemon fan I was wondering if the use of Pikachu masks in the “Wut” video were intentional? Like a shout out to Pokemon?

Absolutely! I wanted the masks to be of Squirtle but I would’ve had to paper mache them, and they wouldn’t have looked as clean. I really wanted a water-type Pokemon! I am obsessed with Pokemon; I try to think of my music in Pokemon types instead of genres. Like Dark York was psychic and ground-type, and Fly Zone was flying-type. That’s the most honest way I feel I can make music. The song “Jelly Fish” [off of the Liquid EP] is about Starmie and Staryu.

From Dark York to Fly Zone–which Pokemon would you say you evolved to?

Well, Gangar is my spirit animal. I kind of look like him, and if I could do Pokemon moves they would be psychic-type. When I was a part of the seapunk scene I was obsessed with water-type Pokemon. Gym Leader Misty was my shit in 2011. These days, I feel more like Kadabra, Farfetch’d and Wigglytuff. Pokemon rap is where it’s at.”

It began as a regular day in my room
with a cup of hot black coffee.
Well, sure I was depressed, but I always am,
Some people love life, well not me.
But then the choppers came
Two by two by ten
Announcing Apocalypse of a different kind
So I ran out of my room, ran down the stairs,
Down the street, into Nathan Phillips Square
People, people running and horses everywhere, yeah
The pope, pope, pope, pope, pope.
We all here to see the pope, pope, pope, pope, pope.
Well, you got your pope pennants, buttons, your pope clothes,
You got your pope binoculars to see him up close
And I cried when I saw that man in white.
I cried, much to my surrounders’ delight.
I cried, ‘cause I couldn’t breathe anymore; I cried
‘cause people were stepping on my feet.
Hey, hey Mr. Holiness way over there,
Maybe we love you, but we’re sadly lacking air.
Well I love that man, Pope John Paul the 3rd
I love him probably more than he deserves.
Okay, so he persecutes homosexuals, does not believe in abortion,
Visits with Kurt Waldheim and tells us not to take the pill …
There’s still a certain je ne sais quoi –
Some peace, some love, some goodwill.
Yeah, the pope, pope, pope, pope, pope.
We all here to see the pope, pope, pope, pope, pope.
Well, you got your pope pennants, buttons, your pope clothes,
You got your pope binoculars to see him up close
And I cried when I saw that man in white.
I cried, much to my surrounders’ delight.
I cried, ‘cause I couldn’t breathe anymore; I cried
‘cause people were stepping on my feet.
Hey, hey Mr. Holiness way over there,
Maybe we love you, but we’re sadly lacking air.
Then he scooted away in that great Popemobile
I was feeling so trampled, I didn’t know what else to feel
Then we all kissed the ground where John Paul had been …
I can hardly wait till someone famous comes to town again.
Yeah, the pope, pope, pope, pope, pope.
Uh huh, the pope, pope, pope, pope, pope, pope, pope.

Richard Jackson’s ‘Bad Dog’ amuses me to no end. The 8.5 meter tall sculpture of a black Labrador Retriever pissing down on the facade of the Orange County Museum of Art in Newport Beach is the artist’s latest sculpture

Yep, this was art school in a nutshell.
