Hilbert Carpets 2007-06-05 01:55:16 animate above imageThese images by Sam Sanford were created using algorithms derived from the construction of the Hilbert Curve. The GIFs were initially constructed in Adobe ImageReady and Photoshop. Most of them were then manipulated by scaling them down then scaling them up again. The scaling algorithms in the software interacted in interesting and sometimes unexpected ways with the original patterns.More about Hilbert Carpets

IncuBra - the wearable laboratory 2007-06-05 17:57:48 The body is the same temperature as all that expensive laboratory equipment that keeps cells alive... so why not use the body to nurture living material inside a test tube? The IncuBra takes advantage of the cleavage nook, to regulate the temperature for cell cultures. The new version of this smart, wearable corset by Cynthia Verspaget and Adam Fiannaca, was on its way to the Bios 4 exhibition, but alas, became lost luggage. The artists presented this interesting concept, as well as images of the previous version of the project at the Bios 4 symposium, which made me want to see it even more. To find out if it ever makes it back to Australia, where the artists live, check up on the IncuBra blog.
One Free Minute by Daniel Jolliffe 2007-06-14 12:39:42 Watch the documentation video.From Daniel
Jolliffe:"What would you say, given one free minute of anonymous public speech? One Free Minute
is a mobile sculpture designed to allow for instances of anonymous public speech.The principal intent of One Free Minute is to investigate how communication in public space has been, and can be, altered by technology. Whereas cellular phone technology has increasingly created mobile private spaces in the public realm, metering human interaction in billed by the minute increments, One Free Minute seeks to return the public soundscape to the voices of its callers."
A Grand Chicken Breeding Project 2007-06-12 10:25:12 Artist Koen Vanmechelen's Cosmopolitan ChickenProject
, aims for a hybridized breed of chicken that is not focused on notions of specific purity or nationality. An unusual goal, which runs counter to most breeding projects. While he often exhibits digital and sculptural elements of this project, the live chickens are currently being exhibited in the flesh at the Centraal Musuem in Utrect in the exhibition Genesis, which also includes the installation Nature?, by Marta de Menezes, in which the genetics of butterflies are manipulated in order to express new patterns in the wings (more).

The Spoon Box by Nick Zammuto 2007-06-17 16:40:00 Watch the documentation video. From Nick Zammuto:"I built this prototype of the Spoon
box out of wood, plexiglass, zinc plates, measuring spoons, and closeout radioshack parts. It hooks up to a CD player and small amplifier which cause the spoons to dance. There are small speakers behind the spoons that move in response to the sounds on the CD which I carefully composed using low frequency sine waves and kitchen sounds. The speakers, in turn, blow small puffs of air into the spoons which cause them to bounce/vibrate in rhythmic patterns." more...
