About Ari Sarkis Alpert

Born in Manhattan, New York, in 1975, Ari Alpert’s early life was shaped by a nomadic childhood spanning New York, London, and Istanbul. He received his formal training in fine arts at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts (SMFA) in Boston, initially working across photography, ceramics, and sculpture before establishing a deeply specialized practice in relief printmaking, etching, lithography, and serigraphy—frequently experimenting with industrial substrates like Komatex and linoleum.

The Treachery of Sanctuary

Gerçekten uçtum gitti!
http://dijitaldevrim.zorlupsm.com/sanatcilar/

The Treachery of Sanctuary, currently touring the world with The Creators Project, is a large-scale interactive triptych: a story of birth, death, and transfiguration that uses projections of the participants’ own bodies to unlock a new artistic language.

The work consists of three 30-foot high white panel frames suspended from the ceiling on which digitally captured shadows are reprojected. A shallow reflecting pool sits between the viewers and the screens. In the background, an openFrameworks application utilizes the Microsoft Kinect SDK for Windows. This talks to a front end running Unity3D in which articulated 3D models of birds interact with the shadows captured by three hidden Kinects.

Forget Coffins – Organic Burial Pods Will Turn Your Loved Ones Into Trees

The idea of coming full circle and returning whence we came from is one that appeals to many of us, regardless of our faith (or lack thereof), and this is an idea captured perfectly by this beautiful new burial method developed in Italy. The Capsula Mundi project by designers Anna Citelli and Raoul Bretzel has developed an organic, biodegradable burial capsule that will turn the deceased’s body into nutrients for a tree that will grow out of their remains.

After being encapsulated in the fetal position, the deceased is buried and either a tree or tree seed is planted above their capsule. The project’s site already has a number of trees to choose from.

The project is currently only a concept because Italian law forbids such burials. If it were allowed to proceed, however, the project’s aim would be to create entire memorial parks full of trees instead of tombstones. And instead of destroying and burying wood for wooden coffins, we would, at the end of our lives, provide sustenance for new trees instead. And indeed, the idea that our loved ones and descendants could visit our tree, care for it and rest in its shade is truly a comforting one.

Pull one out and they all come crumbling down

“1550 Chairs Stacked Between Two City Buildings” is an installation by Doris Salcedo at Istanbul Biennial. In 2002, Salcedo placed 280 chairs at the Palace of Justice in Bogotá “to pay homage to those killed here in a failed guerrilla coup seventeen years earlier.” In 2003, she filled the Istanbul Biennial space between two buildings with 1,550 chairs “evoking the masses of faceless migrants who underpin our globalised economy.

Zarftan oy pusulası yerine ot çıktı!!! High DP Partisi

Rize’de bir sandıktaki zarftan oy pusulası yerine ‘ot’ çıktı.

Rize merkeze bağlı Kurtuluş İlköğretim Okulu’nda Kale Mahallesi’nin oy kullandığı 1121 nolu sandığın oylarını sayan görevliler, açtıkları bir zarfta oy pusulası yerine ‘ot’ buldu. Şaşkınlık yaşayan görevliler, otlu zarfı geçersiz oyların olduğu bölüme koydu.
