OOZ
Postmasters Gallery (New York)

The comings and goings on the roof of Postmasters Gallery (see MUD above) are transmitted live to the (human) gallery space downstairs. The birdhouses along with electronic bird perches, drawings and photographs will also be exhibited and available for sale. OOZ, Inc. (... for the birds) demonstrates an urban system that accommodates birds and recognizes the valuable services they provide for the Manhattan ecosystem. The roof of Postmasters is now greener, a model for urban development: it includes bird-scaled speculative and sustainable architecture designed by a selection of the boldest architects. Such private housing for birds welcomes them and invites them to urbanize. In addition, Jeremijenko provides public facilities for the birds, regular healthy food, water and bathing facilities, including a system to contain and recycle local waste, as well as other public *cultural* amenities for birds, such as a concert hall, shopping mall, preferred foliage, insects and other resources.
