“Journalism”

daisey

Last year Mike Daisey was at the center of a controversy that sparked a great deal of discussion surrounding the problem of authenticity, and the role of journalism in an art context. Our own Andrew Dickson wrote an essay exploring these conflicts. Aside from a general apology and an extremely awkward appearance on NPR, Daisey has remained silent regarding the controversy until now.

Tomorrow night (May 21) PICA hosts the world premier of Journalism, Mike Daisey’s new piece that directly responds to the events of last year, and the numerous problems that arise in pursuit of reporting “the truth.”

Tickets available online until midnight tonight (5/20), and at the door tomorrow.

  • ☭ URHO EXCHANGE

    • The Urban Honking Exchange (or UHX) is a place for Urban Honking bloggers, friends, associates, lurkers, fans, and everyone else to discuss pressing issues.

  • 10th Anniversary

    • We’ve changed every­thing, again.
    • Welcome to the 10th edition of Urban Honk­ing. We started in 2001, in the jagged infancy of inter­net pub­lish­ing, as a new media mag­a­zine. Since then, Urban Honk­ing has grown exponentially, but our focus has remained centered around our small coterie of friends around the world. It is our great plea­sure that it has — almost by acci­dent — also remained inter­esting to everyone else.
    • In this 10th anniver­sary year we will con­tinue to cre­ate and curate new con­tent. We will enter­tain you. We will inform you. Our strange and wonderful fam­ily of artists, writ­ers, musi­cians, film­mak­ers, and thinkers will do what they do — and whatever hap­pens next, we’re sin­cerely grateful that you’ve joined us on this fan­tas­tic voyage.
