C2C with Jacques Greene, David Rudnick and Asian Dan is on Fri, Mar 24, 2023 at Standard Time, Toronto. Lineup: Jacques Greene.
From the promoterNext Friday we welcome Jacques Greene, David Rudnick and Asian Dan to Standard Time. Starting at 8 with a book signing of the Tomb Index and Q&A, and going till late with City2City, expect a full night of music and design. For this evening we invited internationally acclaimed designer David Rudnick take over the flyer design.
"City2City" is an infamous party "About Cities" that has been thrown intermittently by David Rudnick, Philippe Aubin-Dionne (Jacques Greene) and Daniel de Lara (Asiandan.blogspot.com) since 2015, purporting to celebrate the concept of Cities whilst entertaining and informing its audience with City-based tracks and facts. The party takes place in Cities, and has achieved notoriety due to its confusing graphic identity, insistent dedication to its relentless celebration of Cities, and frequent celebrity guests, many of whom confess to being fans of Cities themselves.
Tomb Series is a multiformat graphic project by David Rudnick and his studio, terrain, consisting of 177 individual drawings of optical storage discs, referred to in the series as "Tombs", and published as a series of NFT works on chain and in a large format physical book edition, the Tomb Index [2022]. The Index is printed in a 6 colour multichannel process - "terrain6" engineered in terrain specifically for its publication, revisiting the now-defunct "expanded gamut" printing process and optimising a new method to add new performance beyond traditional CMYK printing.
The Series depicts data storage and data obsolescence, while attempting to reconfigure its own publishing techologies, via new print techniques and a variety of novel mechanisms for deploying contract-based works on the blockchain, and will continue to unfold through the rest of 2023 and beyond.
