The Original Original But Also Fake Ghostbusters
As a lifelong Ghostbusters fan, I found this delightful. The dedication, time, and quality of this video is a tribute to obsessive fans everywhere. That is all.

I’m not going to lie. I was tempted to use ‘z’ in the place of ‘s’ in that title, but I did in fact refrain, as tonight is a very serious event.
Watching James, Jack, Paul, Greg, and KT hang and prep the art for this weekend was inspiring! I nearly broke into song with joy when I spied the performance room, all dolled up and ready for so many guests! (Yes, a (!) was completely necessary in that post!)
All that got me thinking about some of my favorite art experiences. One set of artists in particular come to mind as a personal favorite.
Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller have always been able to charm the socks straight off my feet.
The first work I saw was Her Long Black Hair, which was an interactive walk with narration through Central Park.
Recently, I experienced Murder of Crows in Berlin, another piece where participants are beckoned into the center of a room together to experience a multimedia story together.
The thing I love the most about the works are that they ask the viewer to participate.
So many times we go to a museum, and when we try to get a closer look at the work, an alarm goes off, or a security guard asks you to step back.
With Cardiff and Miller, we are asked to become a part of the work. We are essential to the work’s existence.
I hope this weekend at Art In the Time of Plagiarism you will feel like you are essential to what we do….because guess what….YOU ARE DEAR FRIENDS!

Until there was you…
Monster by Kaitlin Byrd
“Woah”
“What”
“Look over there…Wait! I don’t him to notice we’re looking…”
“Who?”
“Right there. On that table”
“Oh.”
“Yeah.”
“Really?”
“He’s fantastic.”
“Are you sure it’s a “he”"
“I don’t know that it matters.”
“It is pretty cute.”
“Pretty cute? That’s the understatement of the year. This is magic.”
“Uh-huh.”
“That enigmatic smile. Those piercing eyes. He’s got a secret, but we’ll never know what it is-”
“I really think its a she-”
“He’s so complex, so unnerving. He’s like nothing I’ve seen before.”
“I mean that looks like girl hair.”
“This really challenging everything I’ve ever believed about monsters in the past.”
“You are really falling hard, aren’t you?”
“I never realized how empty my life has been until this moment.”
“Well…Looks like it’s for sale for 15 bucks.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
“Such a small price to pay for a lifetime of happiness…”

A Copy of a Copy of a Copy is Freakin’ Scary.
A simple video becomes a unnerving experience by simply being uploaded and downloaded repeatedly. The experiement is old, but the result is still disturbing. It just made me think about the number of ways there are to create art, and the number of ways we utillize that depend on pure chance, from the Exquisite Corpse and cut-up poetry of the Dadaists, to Jackson Pollock, to the thousands of ways digital technology has opened up. Call it co-authoring with chaos.
