Artist Photo Representation

I'm not sure if this worked! If my photo doesn't appear and only the link, that's my representation of myself... technologically impaired!

synesthesia and cymatics

This is an interesting follow up to the Belazs article. The concept of Cymatics is precisely what I was battling... Balazs stated that sounds throw no shadow. Sounds cannot produce shapes in space. My opposition of several Balazs' theories were supported by Even Grants' demonstration of Cymantics...the visualization of sound. The use of a cymascope demonstrated the visual patterns of sound waves, backing up my theory. I even saw some shadow. As for Synethesia, I find it fascinating and confusing. It did bring about curiousity as to why we associate blue with cold, or red with hot? Blue is actually the hottest part of a flame, but fire is also considered orange, not red. Why? Who decides these things, how are they so inherent to us? Perpaps I'm a bit off course with that but feel it worth a mention. And the food association requires more time to digest. Would PTSD be considered synethetic? Would sudden sounds trigger associations with other senses fall into that catego...

Adventure Option 5: Surrealist Stop Motion Animation ???

He was so used to being outside where everything is fair game to chew or go potty on. We did tons of training and tried for 6 months, but I realized I could not offer this dog the life he deserved. He needed to be out and free and I couldn't provide that for him. Returning him to the rescue was a very low point for me, feeling I'd failed him. My heart ached that I had become a person I used to judge. I hated myself for months, until one day I heard from...

Drew's Presentation - Harry Smith and Tarik Barri

First of all, I love how excited Drew was about his assigned artists. The comment that computers were legos to him as a kid. He found computers to be easy. His genius audio/visual performance where light came to life through the computer in which he played. The coining of a "musical trip" is the best descriptive term to describe a person. Working with Thom Yorke was an interesting piece of trivia! Barri listened to his dreams a lot to inspire his work. Since the presentation was split a week and Tarik is so intersting, Harry Smith fell into the background. I found it sadly poetic that their commonality of drug and alcohol addictions inspiring beautiful art.
