What's New with ATA
- Webinar hosted by Institutional Council – Today, from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. EDT – on Internal Awareness and Adoption
- Webinar hosted by the ATA Policy team – Thursday, August 28th from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. EDT – on Trends for Telemedicine Policy and Winning Tactics
- ATA Fall Forum – September 7-9 2014, JW Marriot Desert Springs Resort: Some of the sessions include validated research on products and projects showing effectiveness in the areas of price reduction, quality and access.
- ATA annual meeting is May 3-5, deadline for the call for presentations is September 15th
The American Telemedicine Association paid special attention to U.S. Senators Thad Cochran and Roger Wicker for their effort to improve telemedicine coverage under Medicaid, Medicare and FCC programs.
- On July 24th, the S.2662; The Telehealth Enhancement Act of 2014 was introduced. In short, this bill was created to promote and expand the use of Telehealth under Medicare and other Federal health care programs.
- On July 31st, the H.R. 5380; Medicare Telehealth Parity Act of 2014 was introduced. This bill creates a phased approach over a four year period, to expand coverage of telemedicine services. H.R. 5380 is aimed at removing arbitrary barriers that limit services for Medicare beneficiaries, some of these barriers include geographic restrictions to patient care and the addition of coverage for services located at home and in retail and walk-in clinics.
- New Jersey's Legislator Shirley Turner introduced bills S 2337 and S 2338, these bills prohibit health insurance plans from requiring in person contact before a telemedicine encounter as a condition of payment.
- Last year Indiana Medicaid enacted Telemedicine Law; recently they have released the new proposed rules to implement the law. The laws propose the agency establish reimbursement terms for home, remote patient monitoring, and allow reimbursement from telemedicine providers such as FQHC's, CMHC's, RHC's and CAHs. Lastly, the law proposes an adjustment of the mile requirements as a condition of payment. The public hearing will be held on August 28th, at 9 a.m.

Nicolai Lorenzen photoAustralian art/design collective The Glue Society built a house where it rains inside. Continuously. It reminds me of San Francisco's kitsch equivalent, The Tonga Room tiki bar in which there are regularly-scheduled rainstorms over the artificial lagoon. More photos over at Hi-Fructose. The Glue Society's "I Wish You Hadn't Asked"
Artists build house where it rains inside

30 Responses to "Artists build house where it rains inside"
I used to have a house like that.
I'll get my coat.
My oh my, I do miss the Tonga Room!
Amen. Any place where the drinks come in giant bowls with community straws is a treasure.
They could've just rented my apt. in Brooklyn. I'm moving out because it rains inside.
If I wanted it to rain inside all I'd have to do is let my dad near the stove.
In college, we just called it home.
Although in our case, the rain paradoxically came in on the second floor, but not the third. But then again, the dead, frozen raccoon carcass also fell out from between the second and third floors, so it sort of all makes sense.
Any numbered tennis balls or rope with ribbon tied to it?
They built a house, to let it rot. Because yanno, it wouldn't have benefited some homeless person. I'm all for art but waste doesn't sit well.
Fuck yeah! I love mold!
Nah you wouldn't get much mold. At least not in areas where it's continually getting wet.
Depending on what they made it out of it'll probably last the month, but either way you are going to have to destroy it.
-I wonder if it has water reclaim capabilities? That seems even more wasteful.
Up North on our Native reserves, this is nothing new. In fact, in some houses, you can actually take a dump in the corner and no one minds.
Not joking, 4 solid walls and a sheet of plastic is a far, far better deal than what they've got now.
The pic of the TP roll begs to differ with you. The inside of the furniture, the underside upholstered furniture and the bottom of the rugs will be absolute havens of nasty. I'm most flabbergasted that people are walking through this place *without* shoes.
*shivers with moldy heebie jeebies*
Sorry, I just have to blow my nose.
Ain't the pine trees wonderful?!
that's about as useful and artistic as cosmetically-applied whiteheads (but who knows where body alteration will go with the youth of tomorrow)
I used to own an old home that had a stone foundation and an unfinished basement. I frequently got stressed-out at the site of dampness in the corners of the basement after several days of heavy rain (even though it is common for old houses like that). The photos of the rain house got my heart beating a little faster, just like old times.
Rainstorm in your confused young child's bedroom = Art.
It reminds me of most of the places that I lived in SF. At least water from the ceiling is better than raccoon pee.
Man, change the context and people get all pissy and moany about the stupidest stuff. If the exact same materials and resources were put into a non-house-shaped piece of art, would you be complaining the same? Then don't complain about this. Sigh.
Current estimate for the cost of the marble to carve Michaelangelo's David is in excess of $30,000. That doesn't even take into account the number of useful tools he could have carved in the amount of time take to create this waste of time and material.
Man, change the context and people get all pissy and moany about the stupidest stuff.
They're just concern trolling, probably blowing off steam so they don't go postal at work. Best not to feed them. Remember, if their misery colonizes you, they're memetic disease wins.
Possible inspiration?
The whole exhibition is great to see. It's the Australian "Sculptures by the Sea" that you can only see in Sidney, Australia and Aarhus, Denmark.
If you are close to Denmark, it's definitely worth a trip: http://www.sculpturebythesea.dk/en.aspx
Do they serve Raintinis at the Tonga room?
I wonder if they built houses like these in Seattle, would it upset the time-space continuum sufficiently such that it would STOP raining OUTSIDE?
Andrei Tarkovsky would've been very proud.
For another positive rainy experience in SF, go to the tea house in the Japanese Tea Garden when it's pouring. You'll be the only customer, and you can sit and drink tea and watch the rain. Also great for sketching.
Next up, a house that is always too cold or too hot, a house infested with malaria-laden mosquitoes, and a house containing numerous hungry carnivorous predators.
An interesting art project would be an opulent mansion where each room is an excellent example of indoor living, save one ever-present and overwhelming example of an outdoor element that is a reason we create indoor spaces.
An icy room, a sweltering room, a room full of thorns and burrs, a room of snakes, spiders and rodents, etc.
Pfft, Sydney busses have been raining on the inside for years. I've had at least half a dozen bus trips where I've resorted to putting up my umbrella inside. Yes, seriously.
At one time, there were some New York commuter trains that rained on the inside. A few inches of water would accumulate inside the train and slosh around on the floor, so you had to wait for the train to go around a corner (thus tilting and clearing the aisle of water) to walk to/from your seat. Once there you would put your feet up to stay dry.
Now, THAT would be art.
It's clever because it usually rains on the OUTSIDE, get it?

My friend has a 22yr. Gelding that has ranked himself as high as people. He bites when you tighten his cinch and he throws a big fit when another horse passes him, particularly my horse, and my friend doesn't do anything about it! Her horse gets away with too much. Who am I to judge? When her horse is trying to hurt my horse for no reason, its my business.
And she is always telling me how to ride. "You are too soft. Be harder on him." I don't see her disciplining her bratty horse. She tries to make me lope when I'm not comfortable with Blu's faster lope/canter. Sure I'll run him and stuff but honestly showing worries me.
Her horse was already made for her. So she didn't take it upon herself to worry about what he may do to others. She gets so irresponsible that she will be talking and her horse will try to bite Blu's head off. It maybe a little uncalled for but I will look at her and say flat out sternly, "Get your horses face away from mine."
She gets mad, I know, but if you won't watch your horse - I guess I will for the safety of mine. Boo KNOWS better than to insult another horse. I've been through that with him. My friend's horse just gets away with whatever he wants. Even if it means biting people.
I'm so tired of it. I'll work with my horse and watch over him if you do the same with yours. She doesn't. I end up having to discipline her horse from my horse. Grrrr. And she thinks so knows it all. "my dad would do this. Do that. Don't do that. Make him this. Make him that." Hello, one size doesn't fit all horses! And when I'm way past what she's telling me, I ignore her at times.
I feel so mean but I had to vent. Thanks for reading. Hopefully, I won't have to push her off her horse for her to get some sense and pay attention to him.
I recently read one of Sonny's posts "OMG how DARE she" lol. I understand that hitting someone's horse is wrong. But I have my own exception:
When I am standing by my horse and my friend's gelding happens to get pissy to my horse and puts me in the middle of biting, kicking, throwing a fit - I don't care - but I will not tolerate it! I'll push her horse away whether she gets mad or not. I'm not greatly worried that my horse will get hurt, its primarily that she and I will....and her horse will just get worse.

Mysims is not a good game.
By Deathawk 1 Comments
So I bought Mysims about a week ago. It's a terrible game, and I had a feeling it was going to be less than stellar when I bought it, but I did so anyway. I just had to see it for myself for some reason. It's pretty much an Animal Crossing clone without the charm. Actually a better way to put this is the whole thing seemed like it was designed by someone who heard about Animal Crossing and then went and made a copy of it without ever playing said game. In Animal Crossing you get furniture from your (in game) friends, in Mysims you get blueprints to build your own furniture from townspeople. The fun part of Animal Crossing was amassing hundreds of unique furniture sets and other pieces of home decor, when you have to build it all yourself it's slightly less fun. The frame rate is also terrible, as are the load times. Somehow I want to continue on though, call it self masochism .

Event Information
Co-Sponsored event: Dr. Lauren Berlant
Mon, April 1, 2013 • 12:00 PM • SAC 5.118
Dr. Lauren Berlant
"The Commons: Affect and Infrastructure"
A talk by Dr. Lauren Berlant, English, University of Chicago.
Lauren Berlant is the George Pullman Professor of English at the University of Chicago. Berlant characterizes her work as addressing "the affective components of belonging in the U.S. nineteenth and twentieth centuries—now the twenty-first." Her most recent book, Cruel Optimism (Duke 2011), provides a history of contemporary affect and attends to the variety of responses that arise as people navigate the disjunctures between their dreams of "the good life" and contemporary social realities. What structures of attachment do
people create in order to not only survive, but thrive, when circumstances once considered exceptional become ordinary?
