lock2 Over the course of his Resource Room Residency, Nic Tammens has been working on a series of projects at the intersection of linguistics, politics, and personal history. on locks is a document of research compiled by Tammens in the form of a notational essay. This essay works towards making intellectual sense of theoretical fragments by braiding together pragmatic observations with images of locks of Karl Marx's beard, digital encryption, and notions of property. Join us on the final evening of Tammens' residency for a publication release party of on locks, and a chance to see what else he's been working on in the library. Nic Tammens (Tasmania, 1989) is currently living and working within the United States as a foreign worker. His practice engages in diverse outputs, with a focus on writing and exhibition making. These activities have come to fruition as exhibitions in the United States and Australia, as writings and projects within the pages of Un. Magazine and The Lifted Brow, and as performances within Australian and American free-music communities. Tammens was a recipient of funding from the Australia Council for the Arts in 2012.
Heels on Wheels Glitter Roadshow is a NYC-based group of performing artists who create performance-based cultural works and community events that have a feminist and radical agenda, are produced from sites of femme-inine-positive queer embodiment, and reveal the power in underrepresented communities. This organization showcases queer performance art of radical extravagance and thought-provoking glamour, offering artistic and social justice workshops by diverse, queer feminine-spectrum artists who work in theatre, music, multimedia, performance and literature. Heels on Wheels is a queer, working-class led organization committed to anti-oppression. They have a radical, feminist, transformative framework to their events and artwork. Sunday's events are an interactive workshop where one can learn the ability to take one's voice, thoughts, and power out into the world! Later in the evening the performance showcase will take place. This includes video art, poetic theatre, performance art, and rocknroll ! The five touring artists are: Shomi Noise (NYC), The Lady Ms. Vagina Jenkins (SF), Heather Acs (NYC), Adelaide Windsome (Philly/LA), and Damien Luxe (NYC).
