First up, Nicole (my better 2/3rds) picked up a hot-off-the-press copy of Time Out, Johannesburg yesterday. For those of you who don’t know, Time Out, New York is this great NYC mag with listings of restaurants, shows, exhibitions, spaces, the works – and a few good articles and must sees – for NYC; I think it comes out once a month. How cool is it that there is now a Time Out, Joburg and (yes, even a) Time Out, Cape Town (including a visitor’s guide)?
In other news, for interactive video producers out there, a new version (free upgrade) of jitter has been released. And those keen to work with text should check out the latest batch of free objects from jasch, just ported to windows and made cross-platform. I’ve been working on using these for live XML news feed downloads, to control real-time video effects, and they are brilliant!
And how I could I forget my own self-promotion (this is http://nathanielstern.com after all)? My first solo show opens at the Johannesburg Art Gallery this Saturday at 18h00. More info here: the storytellers
