Home staging is a method of preparing a home for sale on the real estate market. The practice—which often involves painting walls, removing personal items, and rearranging furniture in order to anonymize a space—rose to prominence after the 2008 housing crisis. The photos in the video are cropped versions of original images provided to me by a professional home stager. https://stephzimmerman.com/Eph-s-Night-Out Fri, 23 Jul 2021 17:46:54 +0000 Steph Zimmerman https://stephzimmerman.com/Eph-s-Night-Out Eph's Night Out Fabric, wire, tape, glue 28″ x 21″ x 9″ 2021 <img width="1000" height="667" width_o="1000" height_o="667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f5facd32da7d7b389a22fcc99bc67cd071ffd0181843b3f4aa7029a8b228d2c2/IMG_2280_lowres.jpg" data-mid="128344930" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f5facd32da7d7b389a22fcc99bc67cd071ffd0181843b3f4aa7029a8b228d2c2/IMG_2280_lowres.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="667" width_o="1000" height_o="667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/80e0fc23dd318505d0669b2f0049a0617aa242668d67ec122435b8039f501a05/IMG_2275_lowres.jpg" data-mid="128344928" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/80e0fc23dd318505d0669b2f0049a0617aa242668d67ec122435b8039f501a05/IMG_2275_lowres.jpg" /> <img width="1000" height="667" width_o="1000" height_o="667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d3824b6621f4729939a750aeff535870c9c494b74ecde1de0c3de805d0f774ce/IMG_2278_lowres.jpg" data-mid="128344929" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d3824b6621f4729939a750aeff535870c9c494b74ecde1de0c3de805d0f774ce/IMG_2278_lowres.jpg" /> https://stephzimmerman.com/Filler-Words Tue, 24 Mar 2020 15:09:02 +0000 Steph Zimmerman https://stephzimmerman.com/Filler-Words Filler Words MIDI sampling keyboard, amplifier 2019 “Filler Words” is a sampling keyboard programmed with some of the most common filler words—such as "dollar bid" and "now"—that auctioneers use when bid calling.

Established in 1971 when the city was experiencing rapid depopulation—due to de jure segregation, failed civic projects, white flight, and changes in industry, among other factors—the LRA is the oldest land bank in the country. The audio series amplifies the sounds of the bits and scraps leftover on these properties, framing these spaces not as empty/neutral, but as sites colored by projection, ambient sound, fantasy, and a history of shutting out difference. Listen to excerpt of series: 2019 Creative Stimulus Award Exhibition, The Search, at Flood Plain Gallery, St. Louis, MO, curated by Amy Reidel. Exhibition made possible with support from Critical Mass for the Visual Arts and the Regional Arts Commission. <img width="4000" height="6000" width_o="4000" height_o="6000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/bb7cb7ab29d3d26521be3c16fa5928f816c63b73a0ff260fa897efd3fc244987/IMG_0789_edited.jpg" data-mid="128345025" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/bb7cb7ab29d3d26521be3c16fa5928f816c63b73a0ff260fa897efd3fc244987/IMG_0789_edited.jpg" /> <img width="4000" height="6000" width_o="4000" height_o="6000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8331857238106a041adfce8c155095470543209535a5491ca4afcdd32dafba42/IMG_0730_edited.jpg" data-mid="128345017" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8331857238106a041adfce8c155095470543209535a5491ca4afcdd32dafba42/IMG_0730_edited.jpg" /> <img width="4000" height="6000" width_o="4000" height_o="6000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2a074bcd96dab9d9ae61de2a1ef9f2707065d5b098b2185ea8271082262dfb68/IMG_0776_edited.jpg" data-mid="128345023" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2a074bcd96dab9d9ae61de2a1ef9f2707065d5b098b2185ea8271082262dfb68/IMG_0776_edited.jpg" /> <img width="5000" height="3333" width_o="5000" height_o="3333" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b93bf99c0df246ae39f086e68de3988f16327479ccd38ec2c2dbbbd3eff005a4/IMG_0779_edited_o.jpg" data-mid="128345024" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b93bf99c0df246ae39f086e68de3988f16327479ccd38ec2c2dbbbd3eff005a4/IMG_0779_edited_o.jpg" /> <img width="5000" height="3333" width_o="5000" height_o="3333" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ad3ef9f766971026e61f60f1a3708f322f3e7fc510ea83e1f674437226b1eb07/IMG_0739_edited_o.jpg" data-mid="128345018" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ad3ef9f766971026e61f60f1a3708f322f3e7fc510ea83e1f674437226b1eb07/IMG_0739_edited_o.jpg" /> <img width="5000" height="3333" width_o="5000" height_o="3333" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dc96845819cfd29512a350c77e0f69d3441dc70a2d183de2fe1f7f73cbb334dd/IMG_0741_edited_o.jpg" data-mid="128345019" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/dc96845819cfd29512a350c77e0f69d3441dc70a2d183de2fe1f7f73cbb334dd/IMG_0741_edited_o.jpg" /> <img width="4000" height="6000" width_o="4000" height_o="6000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4f8ff931d37ff188c883471b02b126073fd2a6d0ab48c46f2a25548420a0f637/IMG_0809_edited.jpg" data-mid="128345029" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4f8ff931d37ff188c883471b02b126073fd2a6d0ab48c46f2a25548420a0f637/IMG_0809_edited.jpg" /> <img width="5000" height="3333" width_o="5000" height_o="3333" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b468837e45e5f8d4331a9d81ee96447972d6a2e147979673f9bbf3389a6f4577/IMG_0817_edited_o.jpg" data-mid="128345030" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b468837e45e5f8d4331a9d81ee96447972d6a2e147979673f9bbf3389a6f4577/IMG_0817_edited_o.jpg" /> Note: Flag seen in outdoor installation is collaborative work, "Pledge to the Cult of the Left (Hand)/Sing a Hymn to the Right (Hand)" between artists Edo Rosenblith, Janie Stamm, and Jon Young.

pinning together images to make small marks of historical change and cultural recurrence comprehensible. The title suggests a preliminary remark. Strictly speaking, the state of things is a fiction. A “state of things” is a set of relations between the perceptible, the thinkable, and the doable that defines a common world, defining the way in which, and the extent to which, this or that class of human beings takes part in that common world. Off-modern follows a non-linear conception of cultural evolution. The “off” in “off-modern” designates both the belonging to the critical project of modernity and its edgy excess. It signifies both intimacy and estrangement, belonging and longing to take off. In the twenty-first century, modernity is our antiquity. We live with its ruins, which we incorporate into our present, leaving deliberate scars or disguising our age marks. A formula such as “times have changed” seems quite innocuous, but it is easy to convert it into a statement of impossibility. “Times have changed” does not simply mean that certain things have disappeared. It means that they have become impossible, no longer belonging to what the new times make possible. The empirical idea of time as a succession of moments has been substituted by an idea of time as a set of possibilities. “Times have changed” means: “this or that is no longer possible”. The exhibition title and statement are an interpretive interreading of Svetlana Boym's "off-modern manifesto" and Jacques Ranciere's lecture "In What Time Do We Live?"
