Einen Schädel aus Epoxidharz und Holz schnitzen

7. Mai 2024 um 10:02 Uhr von Ronny

BM Sculptures hat aus Epoxidharz und Holz einen Schädel geschnitzt. Ziemlich robuste Angelegenheit. Und weil das nicht schon genug wäre, hat er den fertigen Schädel dann auch noch mal zu duplizieren versucht.

Ich habe diesen Schädel aus 6 Gallonen Epoxidharz und Walnussholz geschnitzt. Dann habe ich versucht, den Schädel zu duplizieren, indem ich ihn in Silikon gegossen und eine Form des Holzteils gemacht habe, aber das stellte sich als ziemliche Herausforderung heraus.

Toastende Schreibmaschine

22. April 2024 um 8:13 Uhr von Ronny

Ritika Kedia hat eine Schreibmaschine gebaut, die Buchstaben auf Toast brennen kann. Ob die wer braucht, kann ich freilich nicht beurteilen, wenn aber ja, gibt es diese toastende Schreibmaschine.

Ritika Kedia’s Toaster Typewriter burns letters onto a piece of bread using heat-resistant wires formed as alphabets and embedded into food-safe clay boxes. The playful technology has three parts: the repurposed typewriter where the shaped wires and food-grade clay letters are placed, the interchangeable clay alphabets, and the recycled bread toaster that holds the bread while the user types their custom messages onto it. Every bread the user makes, every key they press, every letter they arrange, they can create a custom breakfast or snack greeting using the Toaster Typewriter, maybe starting with ‘SOS’ after waking others up so early.

Charles Schulz zeichnet 20 Minuten lang Peanuts-Comics

15. April 2024 um 13:12 Uhr von Ronny

Eine Zusammenfassung von Videoclips, die Charles Schulz beim Zeichnen seiner legendären Peanuts-Comicstrips zeigt.

Unfortunately, I’m not highly educated. I’m merely a high school graduate. I studied art in a correspondence course because I was afraid to go to art school. I couldn’t see myself sitting in a room where everyone else in the room could draw much better than I and this way I was protected by drawing at home and simply mailing my drawings in and having them criticized.

I wish I had a better education but I think that my entire background made me well-suited for what I do. If I could write better than I can, perhaps I would have tried to become a novelist and I might have become a failure. If I could draw better than I can, I might have tried to become an illustrator or an artist and would have failed there. But my entire being seems to be just right for being a cartoonist.

Bubble Universe

9. April 2024 um 18:08 Uhr von Ronny

Bubble Universe is eine interaktive Installation von teamLab, von denen ich hier neulich schon mal was hatte.

Inside the spheres, countless lights converge; material lights that exist in the physical space, large and strong light like a soap bubble, huge, weak light that wobbles like a mass of jelly, and light that emerges from the surrounding environment. There are lights that move continuously inside the spheres, and lights that do not move at all.

The light in each sphere cannot produce all the light by itself; other spheres act as an environment that creates countless lights within each sphere. Each sphere becomes part of the environment that generates the light of the other spheres, and the phenomenon created by the environment is the existence of the work.

Dutzende Ovoide als bunt strahlende Lichtinstallation

2. April 2024 um 11:17 Uhr von Ronny

Das in Tokio ansässige internationale Kunstkollektiv teamLab hat in Hong Kong eine bunt leuchtende, interaktive Installation aus jeder Menge Rieseneiern aufgebaut. Sehr hübsch.

Extending from land to sea, each glowing ovoid responds to touch and movement. When pushed over by wind, waves, or human force, the resilient forms rise and change colors, triggering a chain reaction with neighboring sculptures and alluding to how humans and nature are affected by their environments. This is especially evident in the bobbing structures partially submerged in the sea, which are constantly shifted by the marine conditions. Together, each distinct component creates an illuminating conversation between viewers, their surroundings, and the physicality of the work itself.

Ein 9 Tonnen schwerer olmekischer Kolossalkopf auf einem Tesla

2. April 2024 um 9:51 Uhr von Ronny

Der mexikanische Künstler Chavis Mármol hat sich einen Tesla besorgt, um auf diesem einen 9 Tonnen schweren olmekischer Kolossalkopf aus Basalt abzustellen, was dem Tesla nicht ganz so gut bekommt. Er versteht seine Installation als Kapitalismuskritik, die in Mexiko-Stadt zu sehen ist.

Mármol says, “The head is glorified before a technological object that in the end is just a product of a capitalist system.”
