I was all right for a while, I could smile for a while
But I saw you last night you held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say hello
Oh, you wished me well, you couldn't tell
That I've been scrying over you, scrying over you
And you said, so long
Left me standing all alone
Alone and scrying, scrying, scrying, scrying
It's hard to understand but the touch of your hand
Can start me scrying

two: check out 4 of our newest um paintings and video at the MASH UP SHOW

THE MASHUP SHOW was organized by Marcella Faustini with curatorial advice from the all-around-general-muses and animal handlers of the Nightmare City Council (now offering teenage sleuthing).	Opening reception: Saturday, May 2nd 2009, from 6 to 9 pm THE MASHUP SHOW ART WILL EAT ITSELF takes its cue from David Quantick’s assertion that “pop will eat itself” in an NME magazine article. Stating that since pop music simply recycles good ideas continuously, a perfect pop song could be written by combining the best of the best from these ideas into one song. The most popular echo of this phenomenon manifests itself in the ongoing mashup music genre. This genre is known for coliding songs that would seemingly have nothing to do with one another and subsequently creating a whole new song as the outcome of this encounter. By bringing together disparate works in the same physical space, The Mashup Show intends to question/investigate these momentary bouts of cognitive disorganization experienced through our current cycles of cultural consumption and production. As the combination of multiple sources of media, mashups maintain a clear formal and ideological tie to musique concrète and Burrough's cut-ups. They have, however, evolved. Now, materializing through the filter of an arsenal of shareware and software in the realms of video, web application hybrids and digital recombinant works, cultural production is at an all time high yielding an ouroboros of cultural production and consumption. However, rather than producing a vision of perfection as theorized by Quantick, something else emerges. This show aims to examine through mirroring, the phenomena engendered by Mashups as a process of layered production. By bringing it out into our physical world and applying this modus operandi of consumption to a gallery show, The Mashup Show is attempting to shift idealized relationships between art works themselves as well as with the space containing them.	ssstills from out new video PRIMETIME DOLDRUMS

ides of march:

b.peters & MRScarruthers are IN THE INFIRMARY-- WOE IS US.

MRScarruthers just about coughed her lungs out of her face today and b.peters is looking for the cure at walgreens.

is a wal-quil coma and two days off from work enough to cure this uncurable plague?? is there no one what will take care of us???

in her delirium, MRScarruthers penned what may be the next great american novel. it's called hex-pox-rut-rot available only from NIGHTMARE CITY PUBLICATIONS or i bet you could probably find a copy somewhere on 24th St.

UPDATE: MARCH AND THE NEW MOON, venus retrograde, assorted hexes/poxes: down in the dumps, case of the mumps

some things that jonathan meese said once:

"actually this is where it really gets going. this shows that art doesn't really need the artist. As long as the artist is there, there will be production, and once the artist is gone art will accelerate"

"if you put a 4000 year old bronze sculpture together with a picasso then the two will make a baby that is interesting!"

[Other artists in history] are ultra-important! They are like captains on ghost ships. You meet them on the sea, exchange provisions and go off on your way again. usually they carry something, some spice, that i didn't know before. then they will toss some of that over to my ship and i can use it. these people are like captain ahab hunting for the big white whale. and that white whale is art. art is a hunt, like the gold rush, like the search for el dorado"

like this doesn't get around enough:

Title:  “Tickets to Oblivion”

Explanation:

“Tickets to Oblivion” is a site-specific installation consisting of excessive layering of empty iconic images intended to discombobulate and overwhelm the viewer, hopefully challenging understood notions of perception and vision.  The space needed for the installation is flexible. However, a minimum of 100 square feet of interior space is necessary.  The components of the piece are as follows:

• text-based black on black paintings and flags
• poster-sized black and white Xeroxed magazine covers of tragic icons like River Phoenix, Princess Diana, Kurt Cobain, Bobby Kennedy, Karen Carpenter, Heath Ledger, Christopher Reeve, Ernest Hemmingway, etc.
• DIY lenticular panels

            Lenticular panels simulate animation by causing the image to move             when the viewing angle is changed –in a sense this is a literal

            manifestation of the parallax view. They are typically used as cheap             promotional items or as billboards (ie advertisements).  Materially,

            they are two or more flat images interlaced and presented behind a

            lenticular sheet (ridged plastic or resin made up of a series of

            lenticular lenses). We intend to use this lenticular technology to

            inflict a sort of non-violent violence. For example, the iconic figures                   in these images may shift their eyes, blink, wink, or experience                   atrophy or trauma to the eyeball (ie, pin-point or dilated pupils or                   black/sunken eyes).

• Make-shift 3D layering

            We will utilize 3D plastic sheeting to create an effect that is usually                  experienced by a viewer only through 3D glasses. The images will

            be washed in either red or blue to amplify this reference.

• Giant string art

            Red and blue string art will originate from the icons’ eyeballs,                   physically disrupting the viewer's experience of the space.  The                   twine will terminate on the floor and transform in to text, which will                   directly mirror the text featured on the magazine covers.

The placement of the individual components will ultimately create an almost unnavigable web of meaningless reiterations of iconic images.  The paintings and flags will hang vertically from the ceiling, obscuring the other elements and limiting the viewer’s ability to move freely through the space.  The string art will further limit movement, and the lenticular and 3-D panels will subtly alter the viewer’s perception of the familiar iconic images.  We hope that the final effect will be one of disorientation for the viewer, short-circuiting his/her habits of passive viewing and understanding.

1-16-09 WHAT A LOAD OF SHIT

"Television Personalities deliberately fuck up their last shot at fame, playing all of their achingly honest songs at half speed as the self-consciously 'grunge' crowd looked on bemused" - Everett True, Nirvana: the Biography

MRScarruthers and the mystery of the weekly advice column

Q: And one final question. Would you prefer to spend a fortnight in an onion cellar searching for, uh, um, man's inhumanity to man -- or ... have all of Thomas Hardy's furniture start swelling up, say, two, three, four times its normal size? You in the onion cellar or Mr. Hardy's furniture? No doubt frightening the dear old man half out of his wits into the bargain. Couches and tables bulging up this way and that -- and there dear Mr. Hardy staggering back in disbelief searching his poetic soul for some explanation for this horrid vision. Your insignificant selves in an onion cellar or the incomparable Thomas Hardy, perhaps even struck down by a milk lorry in his attempt to flee the horrors of inflated chairs and ottomans, outsized highboys, engorged love seats, goliath Queen Anne tables, bulbous end tables and all the other villainy that makes this abhorrent vision worthy of rejection

"i'm 27 now. fuck this rock & roll bullshit. time to go back to school"december 2008 mixed media

in my dream last night, b. peters and MRScarruthers were at the MOMA. They bumped into ted purves. He inquired about the status of b.peters's thesis. together they walked over and around sculpures.

when finally the two girls' akward behavior forced mr. purves to sneak away, they returned to the museum gift shop where young curators discussed the status of erin allen's MFA solo show. The two girls

sighed and MRScarruthers looked down at her mood ring and it was green.

LET'S COMPARE

I know we've only known each other four weeks and three days, but to me it seems like nine weeks and five days. The first day seemed like a week and the second day seemed like five days. And the third day seemed like a week again and the fourth day seemed like eight days. And the fifth day you went to see your mother and that seemed just like a day, and then you came back and later on the sixth day, in the evening, when we saw each other, that started seeming like two days, so in the evening it seemed like two days spilling over into the next day and that started seeming like four days, so at the end of the sixth day on into the seventh day, it seemed like a total of five days. And the sixth day seemed like a week and a half. I have it written down, but I can show it to you tomorrow if you want to see it.

Well mom, remember my dream of owning a big house on a hill and how I used to wish for a living room with a plaster lion in it from Mexico and how I always wanted a large twenty four seat dining table in a dining room with original oil paintings by Michelangelo and Rembrandt and remember how I always wanted a rotating bed with pink chiffon and zebra stripes and remember how I used to chit chat with dad about always wanting a bathtub shaped like a clam and an office with orange and white stripes and remember how much I wanted an all red billiard room with a giant stuffed camel and how I wanted a disco room with my own disco dancers and a party room with fancy friends and remember how much I wanted a big backyard with Grecian statues, s-shaped hedges and three swimming pools? Well, I got that too. Marie and I are getting along swell, but I've got a lot to learn about handling my money and banks. You have to be careful. Poor Hobart. His dear wife Hester took some money out of her savings account, and had to pay a substantial penalty for early withdrawal. (Hester is shown outside being shot at by a firing squad) Enclosed is this week's check. Love, Navin.

Keep your silly ways or throw them out the window
The wisdom of your ways, I've been there and I know
Lots of other ways, what a jolly bad show
If all you ever do is business you don't like

Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Is very good indeed

Every bit of clothing ought to make you pretty
You can cut the clothing, grey is such a pity
I should wear the clothing of Mr. Walter Mitty
See my tailor, he's called Simon, I know it's going to fit

Here's a little piece of advice
You're quite welcome it is free
Don't do nothing that is cut price
You know what that'll make you be
They will try their tricky device
Trap you with the ordinary
Get your teeth into a small slice
The cake of liberty

NightmareCity Publications is born* of a mutual preoccupation with meaningless symbols, reification as it relates to archetypes and icons, pseudo-science, magic, the circulation of human energy, the problem of stylistic reiteration and established formalities in art, and of course, adolescent counter-culture. These notions, mashed up and jammed (tangled?) together are extruded though video, installation, sculpture, printed periodicals, DVD publications, and websites. Do these forms engage and transform the variable content or do they merely contribute to the never-ending and redundant accumulation of cultural sediment? We underscore our investigation into this eternal process of accumulation both through blatant copying/stealing from the cultural soup and slip-shod reproductions/recombinations of these cultural fragments. We steal and reproduce until the result is a neon-toxic free-floating signifier that simultaneously is devoid of and imbued with meaning. This, at its most reductive, is a question about human energy siphoned solely as a means to an end for the circulation of capital and is most explicitly illustrated by the tenuous relationship between underground or youth counter-culture and commodity. Can art function as a space of revolution/rupture in a structure where resistance and critical power are limited by the dead-end conflation of human energy, labor and material with capital?   *NightmareCity Publications is the conjoined-twin-abortion Keturah Cummings and Carol Anne McChrystal.

MRScarruthers and the Mystery of the weekly advice column   This week's reader asks, "What is a fire? and why does it... what's the word? BUUUUURRRRRNNN?"     A: Death Metal in Scandinavia has been connected with the burning of many churches. Since 1992 there have been at least 45 to 60 church fires, near-fires, and attempted arson attacks in Norway alone. Roughly a third have a documented connection to the Black Metal scene (Lords of Chaos, p. 79). In every case that has been solved, the Kripos (Norwegian national investigation department) found that the arsonists were Black Metal "Satanists." A fire fighter was killed while battling one of the blazes. Black Metal rocker Varg Vikernes (1973- ), who is strongly suspected of setting the first fire in 1992, of an ancient church building in Fantoft, Norway, is in prison for 21 years for the murder of Oystein Aarseth and for setting other church fires. There were roughly a dozen church fires in Germany from late 1993 to early 1997. Most have a proven link to Black Metal and Satanism.   you see?

so. in a nut shell: shitty early 90s fuck-you-mom weirdo teenage girl.

Details: "the princess diana project."

we hope to publish a dvd with a special episode of our show "into the 3 a.m. void with carol anne and keturah/the pixie-troll-witch hour" about princess diana and the circulation of her image in the culture.

make digital art/video for the dvd or print media for the insert. make something. anything. unorthodox methods and strategies desired.

think princess diana. think kurt cobain. think bobby kennedy. take your cue from those images of human beings that circulate through culture and sort of hollow out a human being. for further reference:

we intend to publish in early 2009. publication costs have been taken care of (mr. darcy's daddy $$$$$).

the dvd will be distributed for free (super limited edition-- probably only 100 or 150).

Deadline for submission is november 15, 2008.

03 september-- NEON PUTRID PRESS RELEASE

B. Peters and P. Sturges, almost forgotten geniuses of the silver screen, one night found each other amidst the glittering putrescence of the gutter. While their tears and tequila dripped eloquently in to the garbage, vomit, and raw sewage, they began to howl a deep, raw, guttural ballad. Almost simultaneously, a broken keyboard, snare drum, and burned out bass cascaded from the heavens. The angels yelled "shut the fuck up!", stray dogs and cats screamed in agreement, and the crackheads moved their ghetto blaster dance party to the next block. Using the broken, angelic instruments, B. Peters and P. Sturges built a castle on top of a pop skeleton.

They call it NEON PUTRID.
