German artist Carsten Nicolai has inaugurated his audiovisual installation titled Unidisplay at HangarBicocca in Milan. The 40-meter long piece has the ability to make sound perceptible on an optical level with minimal aesthetics translated into variations of black and white along with acoustics. There’s a propensity towards abstraction and the infinite in this installation, as well as play with the concepts of time and space. via | collabcubed

“The symbolic forms which Mr. Betts has evolved through his system of Representation resemble, when developed in two dimensions, conventionalised but very scientifically and beautifully conventionalised leaf-outlines. When in more than two dimensions they approximate to the forms of flowers and crystals. …. The fact that he has accidentally portrayed plant-forms when he was studying human evolution is an assurance to Mr. Betts of the fitness of the symbols he has developed, as it affords presumptive evidence that the laws he is studying intuitively admit of universal application.”

a 340-tonne granite boulder placed on top of a 140-metre long concrete slot that opened to the public in late June. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) commissioned the piece, first conceived in 1969. Installed in a gravelly field just behind Renzo Piano’s Resnick Pavilion, visitors descend into the piece via the concrete slot that runs under the boulder and back up the other side: imagine two opposing handicap ramps shaded by a monolith. Levitated Mass doesn’t exactly levitate. On the recommendation of Buro Happold, two steel brackets and a dozen steel rods support the rock and keep it from rolling away in an earthquake.
