The AIR Program Presents
Weather You Remember 

 

Date: Thursday September 27th, 2007
Time: 7 pm
Where: The Godine Gallery @ MassArt 

 

Please join us and participate in the beginning stages of Maura Jasper's Weather You Remember project, an online collection of "weather reports" delivered by senior citizens as they recall and comment on weather for the location they most consider "home". Relying on personal experience and memory , participants in this project are asked to consider the cultural, climate, economic and other changes they have witnessed as indicators of present and future "weather" conditions. Using the same"bluescreen" technique employed in standard TV weather reporting, participants are video taped in front of hand drawn maps that reference the experiences and points of interest they are discussing.

We are bringing the event to the Godine Family Gallery @ MassArt for the first time. Please follow the signs and enter MassArt through the North Building entrance on Evans Way.

We'll see you there!

Utopia 7; Systems of Survival; Hydroponae Project

U7H36 is the second project in a
series of shelters under the umbrella heading of Utopia 7. The purpose of this
series has been to develop a number shelter units incorporating a variety of
systems to facilitate survival, primarily practical hydroponics to grow
vegetables. The
Hydroponae Project is an attempt to discern the possibilities of growing food
in a situation where either water quality is at risk or other environmental
hazards may exist to impede traditional gardening.

U7H36 is a partial
recreation of the #36 fish hut in Antarctica integrating hydroponics to supplement a limited diet. This
project raises certain questions and issues about our contemporary world, how
we manage our natural resources and how we might maintain ourselves in
emergency situations. The hydroponics units and corresponding shelters are an
attempt to envision a potential reality when the natural is literally enmeshed
in the mechanical. This project hopes to provoke a dialogue concerning the very
real issues involved in personal and social survival, raise awareness, and
potentially pursue a positive alternative solution.
