@cindyweinstein @AmandaMarcotte You made my day! 👏 🤣
"The visual equivalent of a burned steak covered in ketchup" 😂 I think that's exactly why we shudder *and* laugh loudly about that "car crash" principle of #aesthetics" in Europe!

Germans have a great word for faces like T, M, Z & Co: Hackfresse. Translated as sh*tface, it's a mixture of a derogatory word for an ugly face (fresse) and minced meat (hack or hackfleisch).
It makes me sick to look at these people. 🤢

Last was "Fearing the Black Body" by Sabrina Strings. This book traces the long development of ideals of female beauty in the western world and the extremely recent invention of the thin ideal. The inextricable link with racism is present throughout, with the meaning of who counted as "ugly" and non-white evolving along with body type norms. Highly recommend

Audiovisual Disruption proposes to dismantle the apparatus of audiovisual
arts and to rethink it from a post-digital perspective based on hybridisation. Post-digital aesthetics are grounded in impure aesthetic manifestations that exploit the effects of digital computational systems as they deeply permeate all parts of our contemporary life.

My new #article finally out! @philosophy #aesthetics

In it, I address several concerns, both theoretical and, ultimately, art-critical, all converging around the question whether art itself can set itself theoretical (philosophical, historical, etc) aims.

If you'd like to read this essay, but can't access the full version, drop me a message and I'll send you a preprint (the full article before it was typeset by De Gruyter)

De Gruyter · Can art become theoretical?Article Can art become theoretical? was published on August 7, 2021 in the journal Internationales Jahrbuch für philosophische Anthropologie (volume 11, issue 1).

If you were looking for an excuse to sing in the shower (and who DOESN'T want to sing in the shower?), did you know it's good for you?

Good for your body and your brain?
