"Ready Player One," Steven Spielberg's much-heralded return to the sci-fi action-adventure genre (it officially hit theaters on Thursday), makes high-frame-rate popcorn fare out of the Ernest Cline novel of the same name — a paean to retro video games and pop culture ephemera that captivated, and eventually polarized, readers after it was published in 2011.
There are lots of people in the black-and-white photograph Woman Holding Mao Poster, September 27, 21968, one of dozens of images and pieces of ephemera on view in the small exhibition Unlikely Historians: Materials Collected by NYPD Surveillance Teams, 220–21970 at the New York City Municipal Archives, but the image stands out for its central figure.
The Parks Department announcement joins other commemorations of the 100th anniversary of the women's right to vote in New York State, including Beyond Suffrage: A Century of New York Women in Politics at the Museum of the City of New York, and Cornell University Library's Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections display of rare ephemera related to the movement.
Together, the men avidly collect art — they have several drawings and paintings by the playwright Jean Cocteau, all purchased at a gallery in Paris and displayed in the "Cocteau corner" above the bar — as well as ephemera, including a postcard from Thornton Wilder to a fan and a small self-portrait in profile sketched by Alfred Hitchcock.
Near the counter of the old, lamented Avenue Victor Hugo Bookshop in Boston, there were boxes of ephemera: the standard hodgepodge of mangy postcards, wedding announcements, lobby cards, 45s, hippie stickers and patches, Civil Defense pamphlets and evacuation maps, poker chips, Old Maid decks, and the like, along with skinny small-press or homemade books, some even handwritten.
A crew of up to seven people from the company All Valley Yacht Club had been working every day for about two weeks on the transfer, taking almost everything from the cluttered inside space, including wall-to-wall stickers, cutouts, clothes, CDs, the carpet and other ephemera, and placing it back where it belonged in the mobile version.
I have a small collection of mystical U.F.O. and spiritualist ephemera, such as a series of pamphlet interviews with the ghosts of famous dead people (Rembrandt, Einstein, etc.) and a record of a conversation between Jesus and "an Earth person" which took place "hundreds of miles from Earth in the purple magnificence of star-studded Space" in 1959.
A selection of ephemera confirms that Bellamy was way out front in fostering participatory and performative projects like Oldenburg's pop-up "Store" on the Lower East Side (1961) and the duo of Tehching Hsieh and Linda Montano's "Art/Life One Year Performance" (1983-4), conducted partly in Bellamy's final gallery venture, Oil & Steel, which began in TriBeCa.
That led me to think would it be possible; at this point, with so much imagery available in the digital archives, to reconstruct my memoirs through all the DVD re-releases, eBay ephemera, YouTube uploads and above all the resource of the internet itself; the way it can actualize half-forgotten memories and produce a niche for seemingly every remembrance.
According to the internet ephemera scholars at Know Your Meme, the first instance of "bone hurting juice" was an edit of the Sweet Jesus Pooh meme which was added to Facebook page Fun Silly Drawings for Fun Silly People Haha, one of the many "weird Facebook" pages that traffics in thickly layered irony and deep historical knowledge of internet humor.
I also did the math on whether it would be better to transport my worldly possessions to CR via one of those online moving companies — which is how I got my stuff from Los Angeles to Seattle — or to ship what turned out to be 29 boxes of books, dishes, and various ephemera, including four boxes filled with my childhood diaries.
Whenever I see some piece of election-related ephemera, I like to imagine how we'll look back on it later — not in eight years, which is already surreal enough, but in several decades, when we have to explain half-forgotten topical humor to a new generation of teenagers who will think we're idiots no matter how many witty tech blog posts we've written.
I'll be in my studio and I'll find a bunch of, say, Polaroids — something I don't want because they take up too much space or I don't want to carry them around with me — and I've developed this ongoing practice where I'll mail them to art libraries under the guise of a donation of an artwork or document or ephemera.
True champions of the avant-garde, both in a historical and contemporary sense, the experimental composer and mezzo soprano performer are dedicated to showcasing forgotten artists, finding today's vanguard, and creating novel situations, like their newest exhibition, Music for Deaf People, a presentation of musical scores, artworks, conceptual instruments, posters, and other ephemera that all explore the idea of music expressed visually.
In this era of high-tech, digitized, hyperlinked visual media, a small but salient portion of artists and designers have seen fit to stage returns to ostentatiously analog, off-line, slow, and decidedly un-precious materials and processes—from a surge in interest in hand-dirtying ceramics to the embrace of reclaimed, upcycled, discarded ephemera in collage, assemblage, and installation works.
Lincoln Kirstein's Modern casts a wide net, telling its subject's story through rooms full of portraits and ephemera; ballet designs (including two drawings by the legendary dancer Vaslav Nijinsky); video clips of ballets and excerpts from Eisenstein's unfinished Mexican film (1930–32); sculptures by Gaston Lachaise and Elie Nadelman; and paintings and photographs by the artists who were closest to him.
After standing in line for nearly 40 minutes and receiving two wristbands (linking one of them to a credit card with the aid of a wall-mounted tablet), I was surrounded by hippie-venture-capitalist-types with waving LED hula hoops in the air, gurning as a one-time EDM festival headliner took the stage to the sounds of fractured digitalist ephemera.
His installation, My Great-Grandfather's Attempts to Turn Sexual Energy into Electricity to Power Small Machinery Based on the Principles of Sigmund Freud and Nikola Tesla, invites viewers to step inside an office containing ephemera from a study conducted by Meyer's fictional relative, Harris Claster, who attempted to turn men and women's (but mostly women's) sexual energy and anxiety into electricity.
But they almost never reflect in a direct way upon the "story" of the opera, instead meandering across ephemera involving a bewildering array of content: masturbation, solitary drinking, out of nowhere ruminations on Renaissance heretic Giordano Bruno, breakfast, desert mirages, lists of numbers, passing clouds of trivial observation, jarring descriptions of camera movements for the video realization of the opera itself.
For us Generation Y-ers, precariously balanced between Generation X and millennials, it will leave your synapses blazing in remembrance of iconic pop culture ephemera: Shag stickers; Rat Fink hot rod kits; the HOUSE33 clothing line that directly referenced California skate culture of the early '90s; the imagery of artist Chris Cooper, whose iconic "smoking devil" design bears more than a passing resemblance to Cruz himself.
The exhibition, Cochran explained, is laid out thematically, as opposed to chronologically, and looks at three major themes explored over Saar's long career: "Nostalgia and memory," which redresses the artist's life and biography; "mysticism and ritual," which explores narratives on spirituality; and "the political and racial," in which Saar takes a piercing look at race in the US through the reclamation of derogatory African American ephemera.
