Igor Judge the 69 year old Baron Judge who is the Lord Chief Justice and President of the Courts of England and Wales rules in favor of allowing social media conversations in courtrooms decide on a case by case basis as long as it doesn’t interfere with the administration of justice. The use of unobtrusive, handheld, virtually silent piece of modern equipment to text proceedings to the outside world as they unfold in court is unlikely he observed to interfere with the administration of justice. Issuing an interim guidance pending a public consultation involving the judiciary prosecutors, while indicating it may be confined only to court appointed reporters and confirming image and audio recorders remain barred from court rooms.

My digital art work is essentially politics and art. It’s about iconic people, places and events of our day.  Recorded visually through daily compilations of manipulated digital images, posted online and disseminated via online media and social networks. The works are diaristic in nature that metaphorically record a spectator’s experience of the contemporary digital age.  The resulting work intentionally has a painterly aesthetic acknowledging my historical painting practice.

Adapting Pop Art’s notion of mass media imagery into a context of the contemporary digital age, the work draws on a myriad points of reference. Utilizing fractured images to provide an allusion to the digital noise pounding away daily into our sub consciousness.  The work is essentially popular culture arts, diverging from the traditional Pop Art notion of a pronounced repetition of a consumer icon, instead this work focuses on the deluge of contemporary digital content. The compilation of the fragmented imagery is vividly distractive, not unlike cable surfing or a jaunt through Times Square.

This digital photo manipulation art work is premised on the basis that Pop art in its beginnings, freeze-framed what consumers of popular culture experienced into iconic visual abstractions. With the advent of the techno age, visual information circulates in such quantities, so rapidly and exponentially, that to comprehend a fraction of it all becomes a kind of production process in itself.  Hence this work considers fragmented elements of Popular Culture through an artistic and conceptual exploration of specific people and events of the day.

Richard Holbrooke the 69 year old US Special Representative to Afghanistan and Pakistan and former ambassador to the United Nations has died after extensive surgery following a torn aorta. Holbrooke spent the majority of his life in public service and credited for the Dayton Peace Accords which ended the war in Bosnia that had caused the deaths of 200,000 people. During the dark diplomatic period of the Bush years, Holbrooke turned his skill to providing leadership to the Global Business Coalition on Tuberculosis, Malaria and HIV/AIDS. Returning to the diplomatic world stage with the demise of the Neocons Holbrooke dynamically applied his skill to his greatest challenge, an attempt to bring peace to the mess created by the Neocons in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Thabo Mbeki the 69 year old former South African President travelled to the west African nation of Ivory Coast under the auspice of the African Union to attempt a reconciliation between the two presidential candidates both of whom claim to be the new president of the nation. Initially the Independent Electoral Commission announced Alassane Ouattara the victor with a 54% vote count, however the Constitutional Council later declared the incumbent Laurent Gbagbo the winner with 51% of the vote after invalidating the earlier results by eliminating votes from Ouattara’s northern region strongholds considered to be fraudulent.  The UN special envoy’s review of the results favored Ouattara, however the incumbent has defied international appeals to step aside.

Lee Myung-bak the 69 year old President of South Korea responded to the provocative deadly artillery attack from North Korea on the South Korean territory as a direct invasion the first since the armistice that ended the Korean war in 1953. International supporters called for restraint as he declared that an enormous retaliation would be required to stem the provocations from the north. Tensions had mounted following the earlier torpedo sinking of the Cheonan and subsequent naval exercises involving in excess of 50 vessels being conducted between the South and allies the USA. The artillery barrage killed several marines & civilians and caused extensive property damage. Ironically South Korea provides humanitarian aid to the North.
