Ex Libris Art

Andi — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 18:34:25 +0000

Ex libris, meaning ‘from the library of’, or ‘from the books of’ is a Latin expression attached to the art form of bookplates. These are stamps or labels that appear inside books to denote ownership, and range from the simple to the decorative and elaborate, to the obscure or even bizarre and surreal.

Them Thangs

Prepare yourself for my website of the year: THEM THANGS

As I discovered this fantastic piece of art, I literally spent hours in front of the screen, browsing this most awesome collection of images ever, soaking up so much inspiration.

Seriously, this page holds everything you were ever looking for: bones, guns, cars, bikes, ladies, women, nudists, drugs, action, science, religion, occultism, art, photography, books, animals, stars, celebrities, racing, war, gangs, crime, violence, nature, music, sports, gore, fashion, quotes, history, vietnam, skulls, rock’n’roll, fun, sex, shoes, alcohol, sunglasses, magazines, movies, girls and lots more!

The best thing? It’s not just one single page! Here are all the pages in this fine piece of art so far:

I guess, this list gives you an idea of what I’m talking about…

The site is apparently a project of graphic artist, animator and art director Justin Blyth, so thanks a bunch for the mindfuck!

64 Helium Balloons

Andi — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 09:39:03 +0000

A room is filled with deep, evolving noises from a four-channel sound system. An eight-by-eight array of white, self-illuminated spheres floats in space like the atoms of a complex molecule.

Through variable positioning and illumination of each atom, a dynamic display sculpture comes into being, composed of physical objects, patterns of light, and synchronous rhythmic and textural sonic events. Change, sound, and movement converge into a larger form.

The height of each helium balloon is adjusted with a computer-controlled cable winch, whilst the internal illumination is accomplished using dimmable super-bright LEDs, creating a pixel in a warped 8x8 spatial matrix.

The sonic events, the patterns of light, and the movement of the balloons are manipulated in real time as a 45–60 minute-long performance.

Amazing art installation by Robert Henke & Christopher Bauder. The piece is called Atom (More pictures).
