Augmented reality is taken to the next, all-immersive level in Keiichi Matsuda’s film, recently presented at London’s 3D Film Festival at the Barbican. The architecture graduate and filmmaker has imagined a future world overlaid with digital information, whose built environment can be transformed at the touch of a few buttons. ‘The architecture of the contemporary city is no longer simply about the physical space of buildings and landscape,’ says Matsuda. ‘More and more it is about the synthetic spaces created by digital information that we collect, consume and organise; an immersive interface may become as much part of the world we inhabit as the buildings around us.’

Los Últimos Días – José Luis Brea

¿Acaso no nos resulta intolerable ya ese encasquillamiento de una cultura que se ha embobado de sí misma en la imaginación enfermiza de su final, en la letánica intuición de su agonía?

Sin duda, sin duda. Pero entonces, nada de apocalipsis -ni apocalipsis-ahora, ni apocalipsis futuro-, nada de -como certeramente ha reclamado Derrida- moribundias. Ni plagas ni pestes, ni signos en los cielos o presentimientos agónicos que -a baja intensidad- persigan electrizar nuestra piel: negativa a todo discurso catastrofista o postrimero, a todo expresionismo agorero de finales -perpetuamente aplazados.

En su lugar, sólo la proclamada pasión de un trastorno radical, la voluntad decidida de una transformación rotunda.

Nada de profecías -sino sólo una antiprofecía: los últimos días. Nada de diagnósticos -sino revolución ahora, apropiación de destino, ganancia definitiva de la vida y el mundo.

Activismo, ejercicio radical de la pasión de otredad, abandono inmediato y decidido de un estado de la vida intolerable, improlongable, …

EK 202 by James Clar is the flight code of Emirates Airlines direct flight New York to Dubai. It is the physical link between Western and Middle Eastern societies. In this visual manifestation a single 15m linear string of electroluminescent wiring weaves back and forth within a clear acrylic block to form the letters “EK 202”. The thick acrylic block represents the perceived differences in culture as the lines of light become reminiscent of flight patterns on a control screen as they go from one side to the next.

Troika was commissioned by Artwise Curators to create ‘All the Time in the World’; a 22m long electroluminescent wall that marks the entrance to the First and Concorde Galleries lounges in the new Heathrow Terminal 5.

Created using a state of the art electroluminescent display system designed by Troika, ‘All the Time in the World’ extends the conventional notion of a world clock, which commonly concentrates on capital cities in different time zones, by linking real time to places with exciting and romantic associations like far-away places, exotic wonders and forgotten cultures.
