The Emergency Was Curiosity

The Emergency Was Curiosity

by Christie George

Collector #24

The Emergency Was Curiosity is a book report gone wild; an exhibition and event series; a pandemic diary; an ongoing response to Jenny Odell’s book How to Do Nothing. The project invites you to cultivate your attention, to explore your own weird, category-resistant projects, and to treat your curiosity as a matter of urgency—an emergency, even.

Book of Hours: An Artist's Book for the Anthropocene

Collector #234

BOOK of HOURS is a free 236-page PDF intended to be viewed in 2-page format on a handheld digital device. Taking the idea of the medieval prayer book into the virtual age, it provides light but also underscores our vast separation from the natural and spiritual worlds.
