Run Computer, Run

If you feel like going to something ever so slightly awesome, check out GLITCH, Ireland’s only digital arts festival taking place in RUA RED in Tallaght, May-July, but launching on Friday. This innovative festival’s focus is on examining artistic responses to cultural, economic and social factors affecting the Internet’s evolution. There’ll be four exhibitions (including an online exhibition where 30 international artist’s digital works can be viewed and interacted with on a specially designed website), eight workshops, a symposium looking at the field of New Media Art, and a showcase of short films. For the musically inclined among you, there will also be a BBQ featuring live performances by Irish musicians VOIDS, REPLETE & RICHIE K. So get yourself out to Tallaght and sample the best of what digital artists have to offer! / Beccy Fitzpatrick

Reginald D. Hunter

Reginald D Hunter is the best sort of comedian. The sort that divides audiences and yet is instantly relatable, and the sort that is so brilliantly unpredictable that every show is a rollercoaster. Not one for the faint hearted, his latest tour is called In the Midst of Crackers which after previous titles including Pride & Prejudice... & Niggas is actually quite pc. Reggie only became a comedian at 27 after moving to the UK from the States when he was dared to do a stand up gig. He realised there was money to be made, so quit his job and went into comedy full time. His refreshingly ruminative and searingly honest style, often allows pauses for thought, uneasy silences and digressions. My favourite Reggie quote? “I often think if it wasn’t for middle-class white people and their ability to be so easily offended, I wouldn’t have a job.”

The Consideration of the Planets

In the ground floor salon of an old city-center Georgian, a haystack sits quietly in a neat, albeit towering, pile. A mound of straw as high as the ceiling, it sings of misplacement, planted between the door and the hearth as though dumped by a clueless farmhand on his way to a field faraway from this post code. You’re reminded of the countryside of your youth where bales of hay were scenery, not large-scale installation. The focal point of The Consideration of the Planets by Patrick O’Reilly, the haystack’s scent reaches you before the sight of it, and the sight is astonishing. Asking yourself if there’s a needle in there, you realize the obvious connection to the exhibition’s title. You want more than anything to search for the needle, hop atop this heap of a thing and gaze up at a night sky somewhere, but you Can’t Touch the Art. / Kristen Pye
