(non) finite
Roman Opałka was a French-born Polish painter who painted numbers. In 1965 he began painting a process of counting – from one to infinity. Starting in the top left-hand corner of the canvas and finishing in the bottom right-hand corner, the tiny numbers were painted in horizontal rows. As of July 2004, he had reached 5.5 million.
On August 6th 2011, Roman Opalka completed his work: “the finite defined by the nonfinite”

Online Streaming: the Future
September 4, 2013
It’s an exciting time to be in production. Here’s a succinct reason why:
“An Internet firm like Netflix producing first-rate content takes us across a psychological line. If Netflix succeeds as a producer, other companies will follow and start taking market share. Maybe Amazon will go beyond its tentative investments and throw a hundred million at a different A-list series, or maybe Hulu will expand its ambitions for original content, or maybe the next great show will come from someone with a YouTube channel. When that happens, the baton passes, and empire falls—and we will see the first fundamental change in the home-entertainment paradigm in decades.”
Tim Wu explains why the Netflix-produced series “House of Cards” could be the death of cable television: http://nyr.kr/Wo7J8A

Oakland’s own and our good friend Chippy Nonstop is featured in this great little interview from the fine folks at Tumblr’s Storyboard. We’d also be foolish not to point out that our delicious music video for Chippy’s last twerkalicious single Money Dance is displayed in the background.
