The latest episode of our New Media Gallery #podcast is out now! #JackStrawArtist @tarayoungborg.bsky.social talks with Carlos Nieto about her Jack Straw New Media Gallery installation not a town but a landing page. Listen at buff.ly/YyRf8yX or subscribe via Apple Podcasts.

A black bar with white text is at the top of the image. Text is “Tara Youngborg.” A gray outline of a microphone is centered above the white text. Gray text on either side of the microphone is “Jack Straw New Media Gallery Podcast.” A yellow bar with a jagged edge and black text is on the bottom of the image. Text is “not a town but a landing page.” In the middle of the two bars is a dimly lit room with projections on the walls. Vines hang down throughout the room. Silhouettes of three people are in the foreground.

Forgot I can post on here and not just scroll 😂 I have work up currently at The Delaware Contemporary, Gallery B in Bethesda (I got 2nd place for the Trawick Prize, which is such an incredible honor) and on the windows of the SNF Parkway for Windows on North + Charles!

The core message of the book is that we need to drastically re-imagine the ways that data systems are built, the ways they work, and who gets to control them. You can get Living in Data at your local library or at your fave indie bookseller. bookshop.org/p/books/livi...

The Institute of Museum and Library Services is among several federal agencies whose functions and workforce were effectively dismantled through Trump’s latest executive order.

An executive order demands workforce and operation reductions “that the President has determined are unnecessary” at the IMLS and several agencies.

made a visit to towson with @urlocalcyb.org & @digitalism.bsky.social & saw @tarayoungborg.bsky.social's MFA exhibition, not a town but a landing page. the choice of showing obsolescence through pairing digital decay and diminishing economies/ghost towns was sobering

reads:
"Tara Youngborg
not a town but a landing page"

Just started my day with news of a former student losing her federal job (one of many who were told overnight) and this article about the decline in arts philanthropy by both left and right-leaning millenials/gen zers and I'm feeling particularly dire... thegraymarket.substack.com/p/the-erodin...

I have a web piece on view at an exhibition right now and at the reception it was super buggy-i assume bc of the kiosk software they use to display it having issues with the css. Came in today to troubleshoot and it is working perfectly. I 🙃 love🙃 being 🙃 an 🙃 artist 🙃who 🙃 uses 🙃 technology🙃

Just wrote the most indulgent page in my thesis about experiencing JODI's website (wwwwwwwww.jodi.org/) for the first time in 2004, when I had no clue what net art was yet but that experience deeply shaped me and my art and I'm going to have to delete it later but I had to get it out of my head!
