Today with @kukua_gh we discovered new types of clay on the Central Market in Kumasi. Also that day we heard some stories about the ceremonies including sacrifices that take place before digging the clay. #ayilo #ayiloclay #eatingearth #eartheating #clayeating #eatingclay #clay #bakedclay #smokedclay #earth #claylove #loveclay #edibleclay #geophagy #tradition #research #artisticresearch #artandscience #scienceart #artinresidency #africa #ghana #kumasi #masharustudio #museumofedibleearth #market #marketkumasi #kumasicentralmarket #kumasimarket (at Kumasi,Central Market,Kejetia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4QfSYDF4zF/?igshid=13wv1wfbi6zf6

An amazing meeting today. I am very greatful to @ang3l_sp1der for sharing this journey, and to Stanislava Monstvilienė for sharing this earth. We swapped the earth of Stanislava for some samples from Museum of Edible Earth. Stanislava is well-known in Lithuania for her earth-eating diet. Here is a recent article about her: https://www.rt.com/news/415771-sand-eating-lithuanian-woman/ And another article: https://mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/01/lithuanian-woman-claims-sand-only-diet-saved-her-life/ #lithuania #earth #eatingearth #eartheating #sand #wetsand #sandeating #eatingsand #soil #eatingsoil #soileating #geophagy #geofagia #pica #artisticresearch #diet #monodiet #monosanddiet #museumofedibleearth #masharustudio #Gomaliai #gomaliaivillage #Telšiaidistrict #Telšiai #nidaart #nidaartcolony #artinresidency #mišaskalskis #литва #земля (at Lithuania) https://www.instagram.com/masha7ru/p/BrfwLlel3Z2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2m616g1rgz33

Last month in Dusseldorf: http://drop-city.net/exhibitions/the-studio-for-arousing-tools-assembly-iii/ Photos by Gijs Waterschoot, Ersi Varveri and Sam Watson THE STUDIO FOR AROUSING TOOLS: ASSEMBLY III 9 – 10 February 2018 ARPAD DOBRIBAN, CHRISTIAN JENDREIKO, MARKUS KARSTIESS, MASHA RU INFORMATION The Studio for Arousing Tools is a recurrent and responsive model for artistic production and research that is structured around intimate, public events (Assemblies) taking place in the cities of it’s participants and collaborators. It responds to the perceived need for alternative temporalities of art production and experience in an oversaturated information culture where attention itself is increasingly commodified and under pressure. To this end, The Studio for Arousing Tools outlines a model for a slowing down, so as to enable alternative time frames and relational economies. The Studio for Arousing Tools investigates spaces in all their forms and implications. It engages in and promotes cultural reflections ranging from commentary and inquiry to current spatial realities and production processes. Using the tools of the geographer, the urban planner, the architect or the designer, we create new grounds for research, blurring the boundaries between science and politics, art and architecture, friendship and collaborator, partcipant or leader. Through the sharing of field observation, analysis or physical construction the artists in the studio programme dig into the spaces created by popular culture and contemporary society to reveal new meanings. Public or intimate, permanent or temporary, material or virtual, we are interested as much in the physical quality of space as in its social and political outcomes. By questioning preconceived notions and searching for new strategies, we aim to dismantle the syntax of contemporary urban spaces and expand the definition of exhibition, and artwork, making. For the third occasion of The Studio for Arousing Tools, a group consisting of returning voices alongside new contributors have been assembled. #Düsseldorf #Germany #museumofedibleearth #dropcity (at Drop City)

Tonight at Waag Society, Amsterdam, during the Museum Night: https://waag.org/en/event/expedition-planet-b With awesome @instagore Photos by Dinesh Basnet Imagine a place that’s a lot like Earth... We’ll call it planet B. Planet B is a place of natural beauty - unspoiled by pollution, unmonitored by satellites, untouched by the human endeavours. This exhibition at the Waag shows you how such a place might sound, feel, smell or taste. Join us on a mission and discover planet B! Reflections on space Several artists reflect on our urge to discover other planets, and the role of technology in our space expeditions. In Perihelion/Rage/secret_lover, Antti Tenetz lets bacteria train an AI (GAN) system to imagine their place among the stars. The installation provides a critical perspective beyond the techno-optimistic promises of AI. Minna Långström’s film installation project Photons of Mars depicts facilities and its workers dedicated to interplanetary research. The work reflects on how their understanding of the Martian landscape becomes more than the sum of the data derived from the photons hitting the cells of the robot’s cameras. Students from AKV/St. Joost pose similar questions. How can you recognise yourself in space data? What is our space body? 10:30-11:30 is a work that anticipates the idea that we see ourselves differently from space than we do in everyday life or through existing media. Is it possible to get to know the individual through technology? Masha Ru presents the Museum of Edible Earth, where you can explore and experience life on Earth versus life on the Moon and Mars through oral engagement with soil samples. You can guess which environment each sample connects to, either the Moon or Earth. #artabdscience #artisticresearch #Museumnight #museumnightamsterdam #Dewaag #waagsociety #earth #moon #mars #eatingearth #eatimgmoon #Amsterdam #Netherlands #Edibleclay #Exhibition #clay #eatingrocks #Ekoclay #Ekobrown #Geophagy #Interactions #museumofedibleearth #whiteearth #museumnacht #Nieuwmarkt #Klei #proeven #expo #evenement #Claycollection (at Waag Society) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4YJGo7lbBu/?igshid=5mqhth6p3efz
