mess is more

An early example of using a robot / machine to create art. Kanayama controlled the car via a remote which dripped paint onto  the canvas.  

Rapid Prototype developing.

Using makeup removal towelettes and then framing them, today’s make up becomes a work of art. Of all the things I have found so far, this is probably of closest relevance to my idea.

Animation on screen juxtaposed with how it would look when drawn into granular matter with a pen plotter. Really great project, I’ve been trying to figure out how I could pursue both Processing and the more hands on side of this class, something like this could be a fun direction 

Our week 3 creations! 

This week Andy introduced some artists like Marcel Duchamp and Alexander Cabler. I most interested in Marcel Duchamp’s Bicycle Wheel which consisted of a bicycle fork with front wheel mounted upside-down on a wooden stool. I also inspired by his suitcase box for my artwork in FRANKENSTEIN UNBOUND Studio. However, I found a fantastic modern artist Ai weiwei who is a Chinese Contemporary artist and activist.  Weiwei’s closest visual work to Duchamp’s is his “Forever Bicycles’’ which made of over 1000 bicycles. Forever Bicycles 2015 is a major new installation designed specifically for the NGV, and composed from over 1500 bicycles, which for Ai, symbolise the freedom to move. I like to observed these bicycles from different angles through perspective，form and shapes.
