A @BOMBmag Instagram residency by DOORS UNLIMITED, instigated by Bethany Ides.
May 24-31, 2015
Over the course of the week, a group of collaborating artists will engage in a real-world iteration of Instagram's virtual environment, creating an evolving narrative about Instagram inside Instagram. You can follow along @BOMBmag and through the #lovelasting, #bethanyides, and #doorsunlimited hashtags.

Project Description: "Love Lasting is an improbable drama about honest/costly relations. Made of, in & for BOMB magazine's Instagram acct, Love Lasting follows the sensual arrangements of promiscuous surfaces conspicuously shifting in & out of synchronicity. The scenario unfolds at the temporary headquarters of DOORS UNLIMITED, a center for investigative operatics & anti-institutional resilient resourcefulness nestled in NY's Hudson Valley. Here, a group of artists act in supporting roles to objects, or 'proxy bodies.' As though a dating-themed reality show were set on location at one of Google's or Facebook's digital storage islands, the para-site lends occasion for data-rich analog entities to sun, flirt, mingle, & freely re-enchant."
