The Alchemy of Breathing / Laffoley, Paul., 1992

 Item
Identifier: CC-59391-10002465
Scope and Contents

Alchemy is invoked to emphasize transformation, the breathing act, and labyrinths as a means of symbolizing their physical properties. Alchemy has three modes of content, viz. 1) physical: to be in rhythmic motion, e.g. either breathe or die, 2) volitional: oscillation between desire to create (expiration) or to be immortal (inspiration), 3) spiritual: derives from breathing (latin = spiritus) and no religion, philosophy or ideology can exist devoid of the notion of spirit. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

The Berkley Oracle, 1997

 Item
Identifier: CC-52674-73810
Scope and Contents

Rinder writes in an introductory essay that Jochen Gerz, aka The Berkeley Oracle, "in homage to the questioning spirit of Berkeley in the 1960's, invited questions to be posted on a web-site, hosted simultaneously by the Berkeley Art Museum and the Center for Art and Media...Gerz' piece alludes to the Oracle at Delphi..In the spring of 1998, Gerz selected approximately forty questions from the Berkeley Oracle, printed them out, and placed them in various locales around the Berkeley Art Museum. Some were installed in the galleries, along side works of art, while others were tucked away in unexpected places." The questions are reproduced, one to a single sided transluscent page in this book. The printed red lettered sentences on translucent paper are philosophical questions that might be answered by an oracle. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
