I’ll be giving a short, and hopefully funny, talk as part of Gelf Magazine’s Non-Motivational Speaker series. From Gelf’s site:
Culture jammers and pranksters will be this month’s topic. Featured speakers are Alan Abel, perhaps the most infamous prankster in American prank history, subject of the recent award-winning documentary, Abel Raises Cain, and “founder” of mock citizens’ groups The Society for the Indecency to Naked Animals and Citizens Against Breastfeeding; Steve Lambert, guerrilla artist, founder of The Anti-Advertising Agency, and Senior Fellow at cutting-edge arts organization Eyebeam NYC; and Ron English, patriarch of the agit-pop art movement, corporate branding subversive, and subject of the documentary “POPaganda: The Art and Crimes of Ron English.”
The event will start at 8 pm at the Happy Ending Lounge, and is free.

Next week I am flying to Spain to participate in NOW Meetings in the Present Continuous at the Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona. I’ll be on panel with Richard Sennett (via videoconference) and Pierre Humeau and our event is on Friday November 30th, 2007. If you know anyone in Barcelona, send them my way.
Update: here’s a photo from the talk. I also posted the talk and some links as a swf file on the Anti-Advertising Agency site.
November 2007
Packard Jennings and Steve Lambert asked architects, city planners, and transportation engineers, “what would you do if you didn’t have to worry about budgets, beauracracy, politics, or physics?” Ideas from these conversations were then merged, developed, and perhaps mildly exaggerated by Steve and Packard to create a series of 6 posters for the San Francisco Arts Commission’s Art on Market Street Program.
The edition of 24 posters can be seen between November 12, 2007 to March 14, 2008 on nearly every block of Market Street from the Embarcadero to the Castro.
Update: poster images have been uploaded.
