Hungry Heart

10/15/1992

I picked up LIFE magazine today…200 years at the White House (sponsored by Chrysler Corp.). It ruminates about all of the life that has pounded through there, and, it was all so important then. So “YES”. So “NOW”. Now, it’s in the wind. All of our human endeavors lead to clear air and winds. Maybe a portrait on the wall, maybe a chair in the corner remain. So, what is then of import? To get on with “being” I suppose. What the soul is good at.

Being.

What are you? Explore that.

My margin notes to the above:

10/25/1993 

“Everybody’s got a hungry heart” playing here at St Stan’s…fits..vacation is a time for the past to replay herself.

10/7/1995

“I am a stranger to my past. I am a stranger to my friends. I am a stranger to myself..

Where did we lose our way?”

Lyrics to a song—DMX_ this morning.

Notes: 8/21/2024

Life Magazine, per Wikipedia, was a weekly magazine known for the quality of its photography. It was published as a magazine from 1883-2000. During its golden age,1936-1972 it reached one-quarter of the American Population. In 1992, it was published monthly.

"Hungry Heart" was a song by Bruce Springsteen. St Stan’s was a brewery restaurant in Modesto, California

In October 1993, I was on my annual one month vacation from the Stanislaus County Public Defender’s office where I worked as a deputy public defender.

DMX was a paid music venue. It was kind of the Apple Music of it’s time.

To see in 2024, I made a Freddy Carter Calendar💖It uses pics from various photoshoots from both 2023 & earlier. Each calendar pic is 1920 x 1080 pixels so should work for a desktop background although it might be a bit small for some. There's 2 versions of January, depending on if you want one with Freddy's birthday indicated on it.

Photo sources: Visual Tales (Jan, Apr), Grumpy Magazine (Feb), ODDA Magazine (Mar), Behind The Blinds (May, Aug), Ralph Lauren (Jun), American Studies (Jul), Trunk Clothiers (Sept), 1883 Magazine (Oct), Boys By Girls (Nov), Getty Images/Dave Benett (Dec)

"I should also talk about the design of HYUKOH and Sunset Rollercoaster’s project album ‹AAA›. Last summer, while preparing for a project between two young Asian bands, Hyuk Oh and I talked about contemporary Asianness, the first image that came to mind was a Chinese restaurant sign I saw in the Netherlands a long time ago. Asian restaurants uniformly used a font known as ‘Mandarin’ or a similar variant, and I couldn’t find a reason to accept it and even felt somewhat uncomfortable. The font is rooted in ‘Chinese’, released by the Cleveland Type Foundry in 1883. Recently, many Asian-style alphabet fonts with a similar aesthetic have appeared. What’s notable here is that while the people who use these fonts are Asians who are working in other countries (to easily produce an Asian-style image), the people who create them are mostly not Asians. The font naming conventions are also striking, such as Last Ninja, Samurai, Of Maids and Men, Bonzai, Sumdumgoi, etc. Even a quick glance at them evokes a strange feeling. The title logo for this ‹AAA› was created by combining the single letter A from several fonts selected against this background. The titles of each song in the album were also typeset with these fonts. Before revealing the album design, there were internal concerns about the background. I thought that those uncomfortable points might actually be the core message we were trying to convey through the design."

Qtopia Sydney expands into Taylor Square toilets

New Post has been published on https://qnews.com.au/qtopia-sydney-expands-into-taylor-square-toilets/

Qtopia Sydney expands into Taylor Square toilets

Taylor Square’s historic Underground Conveniences will be activated as an exhibition space for adult themed content as yet another satellite space of Qtopia Sydney’s Centre for Queer History and Culture.

The Underground Men’s Conveniences at Taylor Square were constructed in 1907 as part of Sydney’s response to the bubonic plague of 1900, replacing an earlier above ground steel structure, and the site has been a designated public urinal since 1883.

It was also a popular beat in the heart of gay Sydney for decades until its closing to the public in 1988 and the first exhibition to fill the space to be known as “The Toilet Block” will explore gay beat, sauna and cruising culture.

The Toilet Block will be accessed separately to the main Qtopia building in Forbes Street and will require visitors to present a proof of age for entry.

The addition of The Toilet Block to Qtopia Sydney’s raft of spaces was revealed at a Community Leaders Forum in December in which delegates from many of Sydney’s community organisations were given an exclusive tour of the spaces inside the old Darlinghurst Police Station that will house exhibitions telling the story of LGBTIQA+ Sydney.

Biggest in the world

The cultural activation of the northern half of Taylor Square from The Substation and The Toilet Block will see the square become the gateway to a cultural and artistic precinct that includes Qtopia and its The Loading Dock and The Bandstand theatres, as well as the National Art School inside the Old Darlinghurst Jail, the Sydney Jewish Museum, the Eternity Playhouse and Yirranma Place.

Only the ground floor of Qtopia Sydney will be open to the public when it first opens to the public on February 23 for the 2024 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Festival as an elevator still needs to be built into the building to make the second floor fully accessible for all visitors.

But when it occupies both floors it will have 1,500 square metres of exhibition space.

Including The Bandstand, The Toilet Block and The Substation, Qtopia Sydney will fill 1,750 square metres of floor space, making it the largest LGBTIQA+ cultural institution of its kind in the world.

Ongoing community engagement

Only 30 percent of the exhibitions in Qtopia Sydney will be permanent with the rest changing seasonally so that different themes and communities can be platformed and explored and so visitors have reasons to return to Qtopia Sydney again and again.

“Qtopia Sydney will actively and continuously seek feedback and ideas from the community about the kinds of exhibitions they would like to see,” says Qtopia Sydney CEO Greg Fisher.

“We’ve sought this feedback via social media, written input at our varying venues, multiple community engagement sessions and an online survey.”

The organisation has stressed that this will be an ongoing conversation with community going forward.

Qtopia Sydney will not function as a repository or archive for the LGBTIQA+ community in Sydney as this would see it rapidly lose exhibition space to storage space.

It will, rather, showcase exhibitions put together from material from a range of different archival institutions and the archives held by the many Sydney community groups.

Qtopia Sydney is also exploring partnerships with other similar cultural institutions around Australia and the world in relation to having exchanges of travelling exhibitions.

Qtopia Sydney will also explore developing age-appropriate programs for visits by high school groups and corporate organisations as part of educating students about the history of civil rights struggle for LGBTIQA+ people in Australia.
