Mark Fisher - Digital Dreamtime Pt 1 from Firestation Arts and Culture on Vimeo.
Currently, most of the potentials of digital technology are slaved to the facialising tendencies of communicative capitalism/ semio-capitalism. In this insomniac world where work never ends, where to click is to labour, and where, like the lead character in Kazuo Ishiguro's The Unconsoled, we are perpetually distracted by others' urgencies, and at a time when the alerts of our digital devices function as trance-inhibitors. But what if another use of digital technology, another use of time, was possible? I want to open here the possibilities of a digital psychedelia, which I will discuss with reference to the work of digital artists The Otolith Group, [0]rphan [D]rift and the music of Ricardo Villalobose.

#OtleyFireStation isn’t just an essential emergency service building, it is a hub of #creativity, #culture and #artistic brilliance. From the top down, the #UnionJack #flag, old fire helmets as #hangingbaskets, #Banksy style #stencil #art, a decorative #drystonewall and a #flowerbed. A fire station needn’t be anything other than functional, but #Otley #FireStation is a community icon. Well done and thank you to all involved! #IgersOtley #VisitOtley #Leeds #IgersLeeds #VisitLeeds #Yorkshire #IgersYorkshire #VisitYorkshire #FireBrigade #travel #tourism #tourist #leisure #life #Summer #England (at Otley Fire Station) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bzl6DfJnlbm/?igshid=ap1z4elv1rha

Reasons I'd like living in richmond and going to vcu: literally all my friends are there, lots to do, accepting queer community Reasons I'd really rather not live in richmind: knowing i would be part of the problem of white artists coming in and gentrifying and displacing homes of black folks and destroying local culture in lieu of promoting lazy white art that claims to be deep and make heavy statements but in all honestly was probably low effort last minute piece of shit scraped together that has a very weak concept and indie hipster overpriced grocery stores and restaurants with their stupid fucking "deconstructed" dishes (JUST PLEASE PUT THE SAUCE ON MY SPAGHETTI FOR ME, WHITE WAITESS GIRL W APPROPRIATIVE NAME SEPTUM PIERCING AND UNWASHED DREADS, I DONT WANT THEM IN SEPERATE MASON JARS JUST LET ME FUCKING EAT) ((ALSO LIKE THAT THING ABT 13$ FOR A COLT 45 40 SERVED IN A BROWN PAPER BAG LIKE WTF))) I hate that vcu, especially the art program, has begun somewhat promoting gentrification with young white artists moving to the city and moving into low income neighborhoods in an attempt to "bring culture" (aka replace local culture) to these places when in reality all they're doing is attracting more shitty white artists and forcing people out of their homes and neighborhoods like vcu is already probably gonna buy off gallery 5 or whatever the name of the old firestation gallery was and we know how that's gonna turn out It also really fucking sucks that vcu has nowhere near enough housing to accommodate its students in the first place, but at the same time i want vcu to stop buying up so much space in richmond Idk ive had a few glasses of wine and i would love to stay in rva but I dont want to be a part of that white artist gentrification bullshit fuckery. Qtpoc deserve that housing way more than I do. Idk guys let's move to rhode island or germany or something and split a house there instead idk. Also bc like rva was the capitol of the confederacy and i swear to god that entire city is fucking haunted i can feel ghosts there almost 24/7 and its a fucking nope from me. Make an impact, make your art meaningful. But not at the cost of silencing the voices of poc. When someone tells you (@ white ppl) that your art is shit and do better, listen. You get away with shitty low effort art that poc have to bust their ass countless times over to even get half the recognition you do. White people and indie music is not art.

What’s On in Copenhagen: June 2018
There’s nothing quite like summer in Copenhagen. If we’re blessed with good weather, that is. And we don’t want to jinx it or anything, but so far this year has been bloody spectacular. So get out your diary and note down all the great things you’re going to be doing this month in between sunbathing; there’s plenty!
Here are the best events happening in Copenhagen, Denmark, throughout June:
Wednesday 30th May to Sunday 3rd June
Distortion Festival
It’s that time of year again, and it’s their 20 year anniversary! Get ready for drunken revelry in the streets and lots of house music. The Nørrebro and Vesterbro neighborhoods may be getting sick of Distortion, but we think it’ll still be around annoying people, like the little brother in Teen Witch, for years to come.
    Friday 1st June
Trampoline House’s 7th Birthday
Happy birthday to Trampoline House, the community centre that supports refugees and asylum seekers in Copenhagen! They’ll be hosting an afternoon of fun from 4 pm including speeches, singing, exhibitions, and more. Go toast this wonderful organisation!
    The Room at Husets Biograf
Known as “the Citizen Kane of bad movies,” The Room is truly something to behold. If you’re interested in the backstory of this cult classic bad film, check out the recent film The Disaster Artist or the podcast How Did This Get Made, episode #23. There will be two screenings: one at 7 pm and the other at 9:30 pm.
youtube
    Saturday 2nd June
Open Firestation in Frederiksberg
The Frederiksberg fire station will be open from 10 am – 1 pm. This is a great thing to take the kids to see; touch the fire truck, learn about how the station runs, and see firemen and women in their gear.
    Spice World at Cinemateket
The feminist manifesto of our time (we kid, but still, girl power forever!) will be back on the big screen. Enjoy the movie that had us all asking: “how big are tour buses, exactly?!”
youtube
    Sunday 3rd June
Studenterhuset Flea Market
Need something new to wear for that upcoming holiday? Buy second-hand clothes and accessories at the Studenterhuset flea market, open from 11 am – 4 pm. Entrance is free, so go have a good browse around.
    Princess Mononoke at Cinemateket
This historical fantasy epic anime film follows the story of the gods of the forest and their fight against the humans who destroy it through their consumption, as well as prince Ashitaka’s role in the fight. It is an absolutely stunning movie that is not to be missed; if you can’t make this showing, it will be on again on the 30th, and again in July.
youtube
    Tuesday 5th June
Constitution Day
Called Grundlovsdag in Danish, Danish Constitution Day celebrates both the 1849 signing of the original Constitution and the adoption of the current 1953 Constitution. Many businesses will be closed or only open until noon, and office are closed, so enjoy a day with friends, family, or just relaxing. Fingers crossed for sunshine!
    Thursday 7th – Sunday 17th June
Copenhagen Photo Festival
The annual photo festival is back to showcase some of the best photographic talents from Denmark and around the world. See exhibitions, attend talks and workshops, and learn more about the art of photography. There are locations all over the city, but the centre of everything is at Photo City in Carlsberg Byen.
    Thursday 7th June
Designing for Natural Interfaces at Space10
This talk at Space10 examines the body as a digital user interface and how technology is being developed with intuitive use in mind. If you’re interested in the ways that technology can be designed with a more natural usage pattern, you won’t want to miss this talk. It will be hosted by a panel of experts (TBD) and is free.

Posted by SPACE10 on Thursday, 17 May 2018
    First Hate at Lillefredag, Tivoli
Danish pop duo First Hate will be performing at Tivoli’s Lillefredag. If you’re not familiar with their sound, it’s very New Wave – in the best way. Singer Anton Falck is an absolute joy to watch on stage, and his deep, sonorous voice recalls Ian Curtis of Joy Division.
youtube
    Friday 8th June
Trevor Noah at Forum
The South African comedian is performing in Copenhagen. Well-known in South Africa for his hilarious stand-up, Noah has more recently become a household name as the host of the news satire TV program “The Daily Show.” If you haven’t seen the impressions peppered throughout his stand-up, check out the clip below!
youtube
    Saturday 9th June
Bonnie and Clyde at Cinemateket
See Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty in perhaps their most iconic roles in this 1967 film directed by Arthur Penn. The acting, the aesthetic; it’s all great. The film, based on a true story, is about two young people who go on a crime spree in the 1930s. At the time the film was released, the violence was extremely controversial. There will be an introduction by University of Copenhagen lecturer and author Peter Schepelern.
youtube
    Sunday 10th June
Trendsales x Tradono Fashion Flea Market
Take a stroll around this high-end monthly flea market for affordable fashion finds. It’s a treasure trove! The market is on Israel Plads just next to Torvehallerne, so go grab some good food and ferret out your next great outfit. The market is open 10 am – 4 pm.
    Anti-Westerns: Soldier Blue at Husets Biograf
This Sunday series explores the “anti-Western” films of the 1970s that sought to subvert the “good cowboy, bad Native American, weak woman” stereotypes. Soldier Blue (1970) was directed by Ralph Nelson, and stars Candace Bergen and Peter Strauss. The film, which depicts graphic violence against Native American women and children, is meant to double as an allegory for the Vietnam War. There will be two other anti-Westerns (also known as revisionist Westerns) shown on
youtube
    Friday 15th June
Animal Collective at Store Vega
See the massively popular American experimental pop band. Their eclectic take on both their sound and who actually appears in the band on any given day have made them a somewhat mysterious, but greatly beloved, group.
youtube
    Sunday 17th June
Danish on a Sunday: QEDA at Cinemateket
Danes don’t typically produce sci-fi films, but this is one of the few. If you’re into the genre, it’s definitely worth checking out. Set in 2095, the film follows Fang Rung in a dystopian future as he undergoes molecular fission and sends his other half back in time. As with all “Danish on a Sunday” films, there will be English subtitles.
youtube
    Angus & Julia Stone at Store Vega
The Australian brother and sister duo are coming to Store Vega for what is sure to be a relaxed and mesmerising show. We love their folky, indie pop.
youtube
    Wednesday 20th – Saturday 23rd June
Copenhell
The massive heavy metal festival on Refshaleøen is back and their line up this year is rad. Alice in Chains, Ozzy Osbourne, Deftones, and Kreator will be taking the stage, just to name a few. The vibe here is always good old heavy metal fun; everyone is just there to rock out. There are still tickets left, but they go fast.
youtube
    Friday 22nd – Saturday 30th June
Rebel Without a Cause at Cinemateket
If you haven’t yet seen the classic 1955 film “Rebel Without a Cause,” starring James Dean (he died before the film’s release), Natalie Wood, and Sal Mineo, you’re in luck: Cinemateket will be showing it every day for a week! The film tells the story of Jim, Judy, and Plato, three suburban teenagers dealing with various emotional issues stemming from their parents. At the time, the film was groundbreaking for its portrayal of middle class, suburban youth as troubled. Dean’s portrays of Jim is raw and wonderful.
youtube
    Saturday 23rd June – Sunday 24th June
Rosé Festival
Love rosé? Who doesn’t! Get yourself a ticket to this very summer-ish festival and enjoy a few glasses of something pink and tasting of strawberries. Mmm.
    Saturday 23rd June
Sankt Hans Aften
Enjoy the celebration of the summer solstice, and the feast of Saint John the Baptist, with bonfires, beers, and singing. You can find out all the best places to join bonfires parties here.
    Monday 25th June
Ziggy Marley at Store Vega
Catch reggae and dub star Ziggy Marley performing at Store Vega. He always puts on a killer show and the beats will be excellent.
youtube
    Wednesday 30th June – Thursday 7th July
Roskilde Festival
Northern Europe’s biggest rock festival is back. There’s the music, of course (headliners this year include Eminem, Cardi B, and Vince Staples), but Roskilde is also serving up exciting food, and fun festival style. It’s a massive party, and all of Denmark will be there!
    Ongoing in June
  “VERY: Ed Ruscha on Paper” Exhibition at Louisiana Museum of Modern Art
See 54 paper works by living legend American artist Ed Ruscha, together for the first time thanks to the UBS Art Collection. Ruscha’s sly take on American culture, and particularly the LA landscape, is a real treat.
  High On Luxury: Lost Treasures of the Roman Empire Exhibit at Glyptoteket
Silver, gold, gems and luxury items created during the Roman Empire, celebrating artisan craftsmanship and decadence. If you’re in the mood to party, but in a super-cultured way, this is the exhibit for you.
  Jesper Christiansen “Touchstone” Exhibit at GL Strand
Danish painter Jesper Christiansen is renown for his literary paintings that create almost-theatrical scenes and staging. “Touchstone” combines text with paintings to showcase the relationship between the words and visuals. A really interesting and unique museum experience!
  Mathias Bengtsson “Organic Transformations” Exhibit at Designmuseum Danmark
This is a small exhibition in the hall between the lobby and the cafe of Designmuseum Danmark, but it’s really worth a visit. These incredible pieces are a blend of furniture and art; one-off pieces that utilise new technological advances to create awe-inspiring textures.

Danish on a Sunday: QEDA at Cinemateket
Danes don’t typically produce sci-fi films, but this is one of the few. If you’re into the genre, it’s definitely worth checking out. Set in 2095, the film follows Fang Rung in a dystopian future as he undergoes molecular fission and sends his other half back in time. As with all “Danish on a Sunday” films, there will be English subtitles.

Copenhell
The massive heavy metal festival on Refshaleøen is back and their line up this year is rad. Alice in Chains, Ozzy Osbourne, Deftones, and Kreator will be taking the stage, just to name a few. The vibe here is always good old heavy metal fun; everyone is just there to rock out. There are still tickets left, but they go fast.

Rebel Without a Cause at Cinemateket
If you haven’t yet seen the classic 1955 film “Rebel Without a Cause,” starring James Dean (he died before the film’s release), Natalie Wood, and Sal Mineo, you’re in luck: Cinemateket will be showing it every day for a week! The film tells the story of Jim, Judy, and Plato, three suburban teenagers dealing with various emotional issues stemming from their parents. At the time, the film was groundbreaking for its portrayal of middle class, suburban youth as troubled. Dean’s portrays of Jim is raw and wonderful.

Roskilde Festival

  “VERY: Ed Ruscha on Paper” Exhibition at Louisiana Museum of Modern Art
See 54 paper works by living legend American artist Ed Ruscha, together for the first time thanks to the UBS Art Collection. Ruscha’s sly take on American culture, and particularly the LA landscape, is a real treat.
  High On Luxury: Lost Treasures of the Roman Empire Exhibit at Glyptoteket
Silver, gold, gems and luxury items created during the Roman Empire, celebrating artisan craftsmanship and decadence. If you’re in the mood to party, but in a super-cultured way, this is the exhibit for you.
  Jesper Christiansen “Touchstone” Exhibit at GL Strand
Danish painter Jesper Christiansen is renown for his literary paintings that create almost-theatrical scenes and staging. “Touchstone” combines text with paintings to showcase the relationship between the words and visuals. A really interesting and unique museum experience!
  Mathias Bengtsson “Organic Transformations” Exhibit at Designmuseum Danmark
This is a small exhibition in the hall between the lobby and the cafe of Designmuseum Danmark, but it’s really worth a visit. These incredible pieces are a blend of furniture and art; one-off pieces that utilise new technological advances to create awe-inspiring textures.
