At this moment, a man is locked to a bench in Union Square Park, SF.
To unlock him, find the woman in the red scarf at Atlas Cafe in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. She is the only person that knows the combination to the lock. She will give it to you.

Sigh. I just put a pizza in the oven.
Update 7:58pm EST. Fine then. I’m going to get my thermals on and bike over to the cafe. Back in about an hour.
Update 8:55pm EST 07-33-15
Update 9:20pm EST Looks like he is free. permanent link to this post

Best of luck to my brother Greg and his team for this weekends ARCA race in Daytona. In general, I don’t know much about stock car racing and I’m not sure how much my brother knows much about contemporary art but we both agree that car 38 looks bad ass this year. permanent link to this post

The email reads:
This guy is committing web2.0 suicide as we watch (love the hat):
Looks fun!
Of course, Cory Arcangel committed “Friendster Suicide” years ago. (Proving that artists are indeed the smartest people on the planet.)

Tired of your Social Network?
Liberate yourself and your ‘friends’ with a web2.0 suicide! The Web2.0 Suicide Machine lets you effectively delete all your energy sucking social-networking profiles, kill your fake virtual friends, and completely do away with your web2.0 alterego. The machine is developed in the moddr_lab at WORM (Rotterdam), and serves as a metaphor for the http://suicidemachine.org website which moddr_ hosts; the belly of the beast where the web2.0 suicide-scripts are maintained…
Our services currently run with Facebook.com, Myspace.com and LinkedIn.com; simply enter your username and password for the required service, and our machine will systematically login to your account, change your profile picture, and then one by one delete all of your friends.
