Seed bombs werden benutzt, um brach liegende Flächen nach Guerillataktik zu verschönern. Schon nach dem ersten Regenschauer beginnt es zu keimen und zu sprießen. Die Strategie Architektur als informeller Auslöser einer Veränderung zu nutzen, spielt sich in anderen Zeiträumen ab, doch die Zielsetzung ist die gleiche. „Menschen prägen Räume. Räume prägen Menschen.“ Daher ist die Frage, wie wir heute und in Zukunft leben und arbeiten wollen, von hoher Relevanz. Der Bogen spannt sich von den demografischen Fragen, gesellschaftlichen Themen und politischen Debatten unserer Zeit, dem Altern der Gesellschaft bis hin zur konkreten Entwicklung und Gestaltung von Projekten einschließlich ökonomischer und strategischer Betrachtungen. Warum tun wir uns so schwer auf Veränderungen des Bedarfs zu reagieren, tradierte Vorstellungen fortzuschreiben? Und welche Rolle spielt die Architektur hierbei? Über die Frage wohin die seed bombs in der heutigen Zeit zuerst geworfen werden müssen, darüber sprechen wir heute mit Prof. Xaver Egger von sehw architektur in unserem Podcast.

sent $$$ this week to the Institute for the Development of Human Arts in NYC.idha-nyc.orgThis past week I attended their panel about Decarcerating Care and it was really very good. And I’m excited to continue learning. You can watch the full two hour event and explore all the resources referenced by the panelists on their website.More about the event:As the movement for racial justice gains momentum in the United States, there has been a lot of conversation around how to divest funding from the police and reallocate it to mental health care. Although the notion to replace “cops” with “care” is well-intentioned, psychiatric survivors, their family members, and advocates are well acquainted with the oppressive nature of the mental health system. Too often, both mainstream and progressive group discussions immediately revert to a model of “caring” for “the mentally ill” in hospitals and other confined settings that are functionally no different than the jails and prisons that they propose to replace.IDHA seeks to advance a discussion of alternatives to policing and criminal justice that is rooted in the lived experience of mental health service users and survivors. In this context, it is crucial to center the particular ways in which psychiatry has been used to exert control over Black bodies, not unlike the prison system. From the historically racist roots of diagnosis; to the ways in which the pain of racial oppression is erased or made invisible due to the subjective nature of psychiatric diagnosis; to the significantly higher rates at which Black communities are diagnosed with “serious mental illness,” it’s clear that replacing policing with more mental health care is not the answer.DOWNLOAD RECORDINGsubscribe to the podcast here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/5432fun(intro by omar)houseplants “Bloom In View” HouseplantsMARBLED EYE “DIRT” EP 2Mane “White Knuckles” Alpha Femaletunic “Eye Contact” BossPaddlefish “My Place To Be” RefrigeratorSEED BOMB “Rooftops” Split w/Baby Tony & the TeeniesEnergy Slime “Cool Ship II” New DimensionalHumanly “I’ll never be old” My peak was a molehillEnamel “Parasitic” Complete The LieRipe mangos “Gophers Teeth” Cutting Clear BlueRomantic States “Take My Hand and Run” Take My Hand and Runbelieveh “Tommorrows Vain Imagining” Moon Beam BabySwanning “April Rain” Split w/ MagafloraMegaflora “Lonely” Split w/ SwanningTwelve gardens “lone fir” tape 3Hop Hop “Will We Overcome?” Mondo’s CollectionCONDITIONER “(we’re living in a) fashion void” Suggested UsePale Kids “St. James” Holy MessMadame Headdress “Garden” LipstickKohinoorgasm “War Empire” Split w/ Wizard ApprenticeWizard Apprentice “Keep It Cool” Split w/ Kohinoorgasm

Turning Japanese (2D Cloud) In 1995, 22-year-old Mari has just exited a long-term relationship, moving from Mill Valley to San Jose, California. Soon enough she falls in love, then finds employment at an illegal hostess bar for Japanese expats, where she is determined to learn the Japanese language and culture. She hopes to finally connect with her Japanese relatives without her mother as a translator and filter. Turning Japanese is a story about otherness, culture clashes, generation gaps and youthful impetuosity. Praise for Turning Japanese “It is a tremendous blessing to read anything that comes from a skillful graphic memoirist like MariNaomi. In Turning Japanese, her unflinching honesty, open heart and hard-earned wisdom challenges us to embrace the unexpected detours that unfold in our own lives. The empty spaces in her minimalist artwork contain many wells of unspoken feelings that linger with you long after you finish reading her book.” -- Yumi Sakugawa, author of Your Illustrated Guide to Becoming One with the Universe Praise for MariNaomi’s Past Work “Refreshing and poignant...” -- Publishers Weekly “In Dragon’s Breath and Other True Stories, MariNaomi weaves a crazy-quilt of despair, hope, lost loves, new beginnings, horrible regrets, hilarious memories, and above all else, survival. Her beautiful, spare line is stripped of all but the most important details in order to impart the greatest emotional impact in a given story, creating a delicate storytelling rhythm built on restraint, subtlety and total vulnerability. Her short autobiographical anecdotes create a gestalt of a person who has lived and viewed life with a curious intellect and her heart on her sleeve.” -- Rob Clough, The Comics Journal “...just how a girl does it in this day and age.” -- ELLE Magazine “Packed with wisdom and raw experience.” -- BUST Magazine MariNaomi is the author and illustrator of the SPACE Prize-winning graphic memoir Kiss & Tell: A Romantic Resume, Ages 0 to 22, the Eisner-nominated Dragon's Breath and Other True Stories, and her self-published Estrus Comics. Her work has appeared in over sixty print anthologies, and has been featured on such websites as The Rumpus, The Weeklings, LA Review of Books, Midnight Breakfast, Truth-out, XOJane, Buzzfeed, Bitch Media, and more. She is also the creator and curator of the Cartoonists of Color Database and the LGBTQ Cartoonists Database.
