Garage Science - The socialization of technology and the accessibility of information available on the Web make it increasingly easy for anyone to have the possibility of building a home laboratory. Garage science is nothing new but home laboratories are connected now more than ever before. There are home laboratories of all kinds: technology factories, chemistry or biology labs, artists' studios, places to rehearse, etc.

The Pacific Film Archive Theater, 2575 Bancroft Way, UC Berkeley, Berkeley, CA 94720-2250

The film essay is a strange beast. To simply define it as a form that foregrounds a voice and sketches a persona falls short. At the core of all essays is an interest so intense that it precludes the possibility of naming it simply and efficiently, of filming it in a straight line, so to speak. The essay is rumination in Nietzsche’s sense of the word, the meandering of an intelligence that tries to multiply the entries and the exits into the material it has elected (or has been elected by). It is surplus, drifts, ruptures, ellipses, and double-backs. It is, in a word, thought, but because it is film it is thought that turns to emotion and back to thought.

-Curator, Cecilia Anderson


Seminar runs from February 5th through the 8th, 2009

La Casa Encendida, Ronda de Valencia, nº2, Madrid, Spain

Madrid is growing in an unprecedented pace. Multi disciplinary initiatives are engaged in processes that formulate new possible relationships with the city and its inhabitants, this while revealing complex layers of information. Activities that aim to envision possible futures, beyond the current construction crisis, continue with impressive strength.

Madrid Abierto 2009-10 (previously an annual event of interventions in the city, now biannual) will host a seminar at La Casa Encendida 5-8 February 2009. This edition of Madrid Abierto sets out to investigate the potentials of collaborative socio-cultural and politically engaged work and how such work may perform as catalysts for change in the city. We will also try to activate processes that integrate new bodies of knowledge into the already existing.

As the foundation of the post-9/11 American empire begins to crack under the pressure of a devastated economy minority communities are once again coming under attack. Hate crimes, racial profiling and family splitting deportations are on the upswing. Whether Mexican, Middle Eastern, Haitian, or another brown face in the crowd History Repeats as America once again becomes a Deportation Nation.
