Perhaps unknowingly referencing the Lab's Lecture Series, in which artists collaborated to produce spectacular multimedia lectures, only slightly sub-museum quality displays, audience participation, beer, and DJ's in an illegal warehouse studio...this would be Lecture Series 2.0.
Urban Honking, Portland and beyond's creative eye on, well, Portland and beyond, is starting a yet to be named lecture series. (Lecture Series 2.0?)
Tonight Claire Evans discusses mid century design, it is as earnestly referenced as it is inevitably approaching antiquity, and shows some of the films of Charles and Ray Eames films, big designers and thinkers of the time. Greg Borenstein opines on art history for non-art historians. Aaron Flint Jamison, editor of Veneer Magazine speaks on media. Mathew Stadler, local writer, publisher and interpersonal mediaist lays down his thoughts as well.
All this talk happens at the Mississippi Ballroom, N Mississippi and Shaver. 7PM. Free.
