Annika von Hausswolff In her carefully composed photographs the human body is often physically present or tangible in the traces left behind: naked, abandoned bodies in picturesque landscapes, covered, lifeless bodies, children with chainsaws, or the reminders of human presence.

Bruce conner The strength of their iconoclasm seemed to reach religious intensity, often true with the intellectually and poetically resentful, coming from a strictly "religious" (not necessarily spiritual) part of the world or country, and fleeing it and its influences as powerfully as possible - a manic reaction to the straight-laced and oppressive fire-and-brimstone midwest morality.the deforming impact of society on the individual the individual,violence agaisn't women, and consumerism.Philippe Petit Philippe says he is never afraid when he is actually on the wire. But he always tastes a tang of fear around it. And often, after he has completed a walk, when he is on the ground, with the crew and the mayor and a glass of champagne, he will look up and be filled with terror by what he has just done.Robert Longo The iconic first series, “Men in the Cities,” 1979–1983, which seemed at the same time to herald what was next and reflect what was current. Figures—men and women—made elegant by their slenderness and simplicity of dress, twisted, writhed, were ecstatic or wounded, as they confused, by Longo’s intention, our seeing them as dancers or victims of violence.Roman Ondak “Measuring the Universe”, 2007 by Roman Ondák. People visiting the exhibition are offered to be measured by museum attendants.Bernard Voita The line has in itself neither matter nor substance and may rather be called an imaginary idea than a real object; and this being its nature it occupies no space.The Rape of the Sabine Women,' film by Eve Sussman

  Urville (Paperback)by Gilles Trehin
  
  ProdUrville, the capital of a large island province, has a population of nearly 12 million, making it the one of the most significant cities in Europe. It is also entirely imaginary. Gilles Trehin, an autistic man with exceptional creative talents and an obsession with large cities, conceived and developed Urville over the course of 20 years. He shares his vision in this beautifully illustrated guide to the city, which he renders convincingly real in nearly 300 drawings of different districts of Urville. He describes, in remarkable detail, the architectural styles of its individual buildings and provides historical, geographical, economic and cultural information. This includes historical figures and cultural anecdotes grounded in historical reality - Trehin accounts for the effects of the Vichy regime, the Second World War and globalisation on his imagined city. This book offers fascinating evidence of and insight into the creative power of the autistic mind and will be of interest to people with autism and without.
  
  Cinderella (table)For making the table it was used a high-tech method as a new modern craft. Sketches of old furniture are put into a computer that translates them into a drawing that can only be created in a digital world.
  Jeroen Verhoeven's table is a reinterpretation of Dutch design traditions through the means of modern technology.
  The Cinderella Table is an exploration of the possibilities of CAD-CAM (computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing). Objects are increasingly designed digitally, on screen, and the files that describe them in two dimensions on the computer are the same files that are used to control the machines that make the objects too. Because human intervention, interpretation of a design and handcraft are omitted, fault-free three-dimensional versions of digitally designed objects are possible. CAD-CAM would appear to negate the individualism of craft objects. But Verhoeven wanted to use CAD-CAM as (in his words) a 'new modern craft' because he felt it was 'hiding a craft' within it. Verhoeven said 'It's about attention to detail and the possibility to make something unique with a machine that is normally used for mass production.'
  The object is clearly the result of computer aided design, but is also clearly hand-finished. It alludes to grandeur through the outlines of historically grand furniture in its profiles, yet it is also economical and humble, an unadorned plywood shell with no applied surface. These contradictions, or juxtapositions, are commonly found in recent Dutch design.

EXCEPTION CONFIGURATION

THE BLACK SWAN CONCEPT + LEON RANSMEIER WATCH + JUERGEN TELLER shooting KRISTEN MCMENAMI+ GOOGLE EARTH CATCHING PEOPLE.

IM crazy about the unexpected, for me it´s a good reason to keep ahead ,it deeply hides surprise,change and hope( even I know that for the rest mainly means DANGER) .I feel more secure when not every single thing its under control!!
I remeber that after a massive terrorist attack in my country, our goverment, in order to modify the elections process, decided to lie about the real terrorist identity .But....an unpredictable event happened: while the goverment was controling all the media information with lyes, people started organising a manifestation via SMS. It was huge and it finally changed the result of the elections and showed the world about the unfaithfull strategies of our goverment. I understood the black swan concept that I once read somewhere...

The term black swan comes from the ancient Western conception that all swans were white;the Black Swan is an oft cited reference in philosophical discussions of the improbable.Ironically the 17th Century discovery of black swans in Australia metamorphosed the term to connote an exception to the rule and the very existence of the improbable.

"The Black Swan" (Nassim Nicholas Taleb )
Black swans, in Taleb's terms, are unexpected, and indeed unforeseeable, events which have enormous impact. Examples: the events of 9/11 ,Harry Potter, success of Youtube.... But after a black swan has occurred, human nature is such that we concoct explanations for it, making it both explicable and, we feel, predictable.In short, black swans are some of the most important and influential events in the history of the human race.
For Taleb, History proceeds by “jumps,” controlled by “the tyranny of the singular, the accidental, the unseen and the unpredicted.” Experts are charlatans who believe in bell curves, in which most distribution is toward the center — ordinary and knowable. Far more powerful, Taleb argues, are the wild outcomes of fractal geometry, in which anything can happen overnight. (“The Black Swan” is dedicated to Benoit Mandelbrot, godfather of fractal geometry.)

Juergen Teller is someone that balances the "unexpected" with a huge talent of recognising the powerfull inside of the monotonous.He is a constant black swan on my creative prejudices.
