Our @pioneerworks residency—a collaboration with D. Graham Burnett and @schoolofattention—has begun! More glimpses soon into our forthcoming installation on the history of attention. This first process post is a love letter to @jason_ressler, whose artistic vision, baffling talent, and 160+ hours of labor turned a photograph of an 1890s psychoacoustic laboratory apparatus into an audacious reality. Jason, I was very fortunate to become your apprentice. A very special thank you to Ben Neiditz for the 3D models that were ESSENTIAL to our ability to build this. Our gratitude to @schoolofattention — and to Peter Schmidt and Haena Chu especially — for the material support that made the construction possible. And thank you to @juliahamerlight for permitting us to steal your husband for three months of grueling, weekendless work. Finally, THANK YOU to @pioneerworks for having us—to @magg.bee, @davideveritthowe, @gabriel_florenz, and the rest of the PW team for a very warm welcome!!!

Memory is inherently fragile. It fades, dissipates, numbs — but what are the implications of this process in the face of trauma and collective political psyche?
On May 27, at 18.00 in @pushkinhouselondon, join @krasimirabutseva, a visual artist and co-presenter of Bulgaria at the 60th Venice Art Biennale with the multimedia installation “The Neighbours”, which addressed the question of political memory through working with communities, collecting oral histories and forming a counter-narrative to the official state-led one. As a total installation, a resulting space upended the questions of authorship, responsibility and ethics of remembering and forgetting.
@crucialobjects, one of the project’s collaborators, will join the conversation with the audience digitally. @denis.a.maksimov will moderate the event, which will be organised in the context of the Discourse programme.

To mark the publication of Modernism, Art, Therapy (Yale University Press, 2024)—an innovative collection of essays by established and emerging scholars—this conversation explores the relationships between clinically derived art therapies, institutions, and artistic practices in the visual arts from the twentieth century to the present.
Co-editors Suzanne Hudson and Tanya Sheehan are joined by contributor Julian Chehirian to share their ongoing research in a discussion moderated by Cris Scorza, Helena Rubinstein Chair of Education at the Whitney.
A born-digital volume, Modernism, Art, Therapy offers a transnational history of modernist art, connecting discourses on art as therapy to broader questions of gender, disability, race, and the politics of care. It is available as an open access title on the Yale University Press website.
This program is presented in partnership with the Arts in Medicine department of NYC Health and Hospitals.

Excited to be in conversation with Suzanne Hudson, Tanya Sheehan and Cris Scorza about entanglements between arts and therapeutics @whitneymuseum on Thursday, February 13th at 6:30pm EST.
RSVP on their site to join in-person for free (Hess Theater) or on zoom! And if you're in NYC for CAA, let me know!

Julian is a multimedia artist based between Philadelphia and Sofia, and a doctoral candidate in the History of Science at Princeton University, USA. In his practice-based research, Chehirian creates site-specific multimedia installations that employ architectural space, modified objects, video, sound, and experimental technologies ⚙️
His projects include the Bulgarian Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale with Krasimira Butseva and Lilia Topouzova - curated by Vasil Vladimirov (Venice, 2024), The Neighbours: Forms of Trauma (Toronto, 2023 / Princeton, 2023 / Sofia City Art Gallery & Benkovski 40, Sofia, 2022), American Haze (Fleisher Ollman Gallery, Philadelphia, 2023) and Excavating the Psyche (The Red House, Sofia, 2015).
In his scholarship, Julian writes on the history of attention and psychotherapy, post-war art and transnational history. His dissertation project investigates early experiments in art psychotherapy, examining art studios as spaces of knowledge-making. His writing appears in edited collections for Yale University Press, Columbia University Press, Bloomsbury, in Culture, Medicine and Psychiatry, and in The Public Domain Review.
During his stay at the 2nd Floor Residency Julian was writing an essay about art as research and social intervention, considering art as historical methodology. More details will come out soon 🖇️

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
Keep track of Instagram updates discreetly while protecting your privacy and staying anonymous.
View profiles and photos anonymously with ease using the Private Profile Viewer.
This free tool allows you to view Instagram Stories anonymously, ensuring your activity remains hidden from the story uploader.
Anonstories lets users view Instagram stories without alerting the creator.
