Das Bild zeigt eine moderne Kunstinstallation in einem Raum mit einem Betonboden. An einer Wand hängen drei große Bildschirme, die verschiedene Porträts und Bewegungen von Menschen zeigen. Die Bilder sind in verschiedenen Positionen und Kleidungsstilen dargestellt, wobei die Farben hauptsächlich in Schwarz und Blau liegen. Vor den Bildschirmen befindet sich ein durchsichtiger Rahmen aus dünnen Ketten, der die Bilder reflektiert und ergänzt. Die Wand hinter den Bildschirmen ist mit einer Textur aus dünnen Ketten verkleidet, die dem Raum eine dynamische und strukturierte Atmosphäre verleiht. Die gesamte Installation wirkt wie ein interaktives Kunstwerk, das die Bewegung und die menschliche Form hervorhebt.

Das Bild zeigt eine moderne Kunstinstallation in einem großen, hellen Raum mit hohen Decken und großen Fenstern, die von weißen Vorhängen bedeckt sind. Die Installation besteht aus einem Netzwerk aus schwarzen Metallgittern, die in einer gewellten Form angeordnet sind und eine Reihe von dunklen, quadratischen Elementen enthalten, die an die Form eines Gebäudes erinnern. Diese Elemente sind in verschiedenen Schattierungen von Braun und Schwarz gehalten und scheinen aus Holz oder einem ähnlichen Material zu bestehen. Ein einzelner Besucher steht in der Mitte des Raumes, umgeben von der Installation, was die Größe und die Ausdehnung der Kunstwerk betont. Die Decke ist mit industriellen Leuchten und Kabeln ausgestattet, die auf eine professionelle Umgebung hinweisen. Die gesamte Szene vermittelt ein Gefühl von moderner Kunst und Architektur.

Das Bild zeigt eine Informationstafel mit dem Titel "VIRAL HALLUCINATIONS" in großen, schwarzen Buchstaben. Darunter folgt eine detaillierte Beschreibung in deutscher Sprache, die sich mit der Thematik der Ausstellung beschäftigt. Die Texte diskutieren Körperbilder, Schönheitsideale und virale Fitnesstrends, die eng mit der algorithmischen Verbreitung von Desinformation sowie ideologischen und politischen Inhalten verbunden sind. Es wird aufgezeigt, wie Hashtags wie #looksmaxxing Praktiken zirkulieren, die User*innen dazu verleiten, ihre Körper nach viralen Vorbildern und synthetischen Körpern zu formen. Die Ausstellung präsentiert künstlerische Perspektiven, die eine Wende im Verständnis von Blicken auf Körpern ermöglichen, indem sie normative ästhetische Kategorien als Instrumente gesellschaftlicher Zugehörigkeit dekonstruieren. Ein zentrales Zitat von Moshtari Hilal 2023 wird zitiert: "Häßlich ist nicht, wer angesichts wird, sondern wer mit der Intention der Entmenschlichung ansieht." Die Ausstellung untersucht, wie Körperbilder im digitalen Raum und im Alltag unserer vernetzten Gesellschaft durch algorithmische Ordnungen sichtbar werden und welche künstlerischen Arbeiten diese Bildregime neu ordnen, unterwandern und transformieren können. Ein weiterer Abschnitt, "AGENCY IN MEDIA," beschreibt das zweite Booklet-Band der Ausstellung "STATES OF REBIRTH," das sich mit den Auswirkungen algorithmischer Sichtbarkeit auf Körperbilder, Schönheitsidealen und Desinformation auf Social Media auseinandersetzt. Es wird auch erwähnt, dass ab März 2025 wöchentliche AGENCY IN MEDIA-WORKSHOPS für Schulgruppen und Erwachsene stattfinden, die sich mit fotografischen Körperbildern auf Social Media und ihrer Wechselwirkung mit ideologischen Narrativen und Desinformation auseinandersetzen.

Hamas will Geisel mit US-Staatsbürgerschaft freilassen

Sie habe in den vergangenen Tagen mit den USA in Kontakt gestanden und die Freilassung des entführten Soldaten sei Teil der Bemühungen der Islamisten, ein Gaza-Abkommen zu erreichen, teilte die Terrororganisation mit.

Trump has proposed an unprompted concession to China—“80% Tariff on China seems right! Up to Scott B."
80% tariffs are still humongous for taxes on imports, but are a significant decrease from the current 145% tariffs. Art of the deal...before he even sits down at the negotiating table?

Naturism is an irreverent, bare-all comedy by Ang Collins. Far from civilisation, a group of naturist baby boomers have created their very own off-grid, eco-paradise. No worries... right?Griffin Theatre Company
Das Bild zeigt eine Werbung für ein Theaterstück namens "Naturism" von Ang Collins, das vom 25. Oktober bis zum 15. November 2025 im Sydney Theatre Company gezeigt wird. Auf der linken Seite des Bildes befindet sich ein grünes Rechteck mit weißer Schrift, die die Titelinformationen enthält. Auf der rechten Seite ist ein Foto zu sehen, das eine Person von hinten zeigt, die sich in einer natürlichen Umgebung befindet, umgeben von grünen Blättern und gelben Blüten. Die Person hält eine Sonnenbrille in der Hand. Die Hintergrundfarbe ist grün, was die Naturthematik unterstreicht.

Matt Gaetz visited El Salvador’s mega-prison and saw people drained of hope. He then pitched it to Stephen Miller
Matt Gaetz was given a tour of the facility, which human rights groups have described as a ‘tropical gulag’ rife with abuses
Matt Gaetz visited the El Salvador mega-prison last summer and pitched the idea of sending migrants there to Donald Trump’s deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller, according to a report.
Trump’s failed nominee to lead the Justice Department was invited on a diplomatic visit by El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele in July 2024, TIME reports.
Bukele made Gaetz an offer during a dinner that he would be willing to imprison migrants that Trump wanted removed from the U.S. inside El Salvador’s notorious Terrorism Confinement Center, known as CECOT, according to the outlet. The next day, Gaetz was given a tour of the facility, which human rights groups have described as a “tropical gulag” rife with abuses.

Bike Helmets: Stupid Hat or Essential Protection?
Few topics in cycling inspire as much controversy as helmets. Some people insist they’re essential, calling non-wearers reckless and invoking harsh and violent imagery: “enjoy your traumatic brain injury”. “You’ll regret it when you’re in a hospital with a feeding tube”. You hear suggestions of denying access to public healthcare. On the opposite end, helmet skeptics argue that they’re a distraction. I’ve actually heard people call them “magic hats” that “don’t offer significant protection (if any at all)”. Helmets dehumanize cyclists and send the wrong message. They’re dorky and uncool, rather than fashionable and European.
So what’s the truth about helmets?
