love at first sight. something about this ancient and incredibly difficult expression of the medium captivates my total attention. there is no perfection. only beautiful, beautiful flaws. no expectations. ah yes, The daguerreotype process.
where do i begin. i can give in, delight and devote my attention to this...

Absence she says
makes the heart grow
fonder for others
she giggles

on the phone
right hand close
to her mouth
comforting a friend

who had found herself a lover
and been caught
and was now separated
and struggling

her husband lying to the world
wanting Christmas together
wanting to hide his shame
his humiliation his anger his pain

even though some may not admit to this
without our woman for a man
its all falling
apart

Men know
our woman makes us
great
in this World

its why we fight wars
and write poems

its why we go forth every morning
wanting to conquer

anyway I think
it doesn't surprise me
his lying

if he stops to consider
his loss he'll see
everything
crumbling

he'll have to admit
another man won
his wife
is gone

something/everything
irretrievably
lost
now

he will find it harder
to enter a room
head high
chest out

humility is for monks
not for lawyers
and tears
for when you admit to a broken heart

clearly
he is not ready
to forgive
or forget or move on

I don't think
she
heard me
thinking this

I don't think
her friend
is ready
either

marinkel - expressing emotional states

2009-09-19T08:13:00.000-07:00

"welcome to my world.

my work reflects my search of expressing emotional states, capturing time, reflecting beauty. but sometimes i just love the colors that appear on my screen. i therefore often turn the camera onto myself. i am my best model in what i like to tell.

the places matter too. often i am alone in a room. i also love to take trips to abandoned places, castles and the like. i am fascinated by architecture and how it reflects the passing of time and taste. how decay has her own personality and her own will of creation." - marinkel.etsy.com

Dispatchwork Amsterdam - Platform 21 Repair project

2009-07-28T08:30:00.000-07:00

Platform21’s Repair Manifesto opposes throwaway culture and celebrates repair as the new recycling.

"With our project Platform21 = Repairing we seek to make repairing cool again – with your help. Let the manifesto inspire you, comment on it or add to it. Rediscover the joy of fixing things and share your most ingenious repair to compete in the Most Remarkable Repair contest.
In Platform21 the work of designers and artists inspires to repair your own possessions, which you can do in the different repair stations. And if you know of good repairpersons or master a forgotten technique, we ask you to share it with us.

This project is about sharing knowledge and skills. Together we can start a movement, one that isn’t new per se but has been forgotten. So if you know a way to save a product, let us know by emailing us." - http://www.platform21.nl/

Jason de Caires Taylor - Underwater Sculpture Museum

2009-06-18T08:58:00.000-07:00

"Creator of the world’s first underwater sculpture park, Jason de Caires Taylor has gained international recognition for his unique work. His sculptures highlight ecological processes whilst exploring the intricate relationships between modern art and the environment. By using sculptures to create artificial reefs, the artist’s interventions promote hope and recovery, and underline our need to understand and protect the natural world."-www.underwatersculpture.com

I find this artists work completely creepy and thought provoking. My thoughts mostly surround the idea that one day when the world has "started over" in some sense, there will be new life that finds this underwater sculpture museum and will wonder...who, what, where, why? I think it also feels a bit creepy because the ocean is already a pretty scary place to swim around in. Can you imagine accidentally coming up to a bunch of what looks like dead bodies lying on the ocean floor! Its all very beautifully grotesque.

"When I was young, I placed my baby teeth under my pillow and when i woke up I'd find a shiny new quarter. But whatever happened to those little teeth? Where did they go? Would I ever see them again? Many years later, a little tooth was standing at my door. It looked familiar. It's name was ickle. Welcome home, my milk toof!"

The Audacity of Hopelessness

Losing Faith

"Dave Kinsey was born in Pittsburgh in 1971 and attended the
Art Institute of Pittsburgh and the Art Institute of Atlanta before
moving to California in 1994 to pursue a career as a designer
and fine artist. His work captures the universal essence of the
human condition mainly through an energetic portrayal of urban
figures. Working spontaneously, and utilizing a range of
mediums, he constructs multi-layered, textured environments
easily likened to the complexities of contemporary life."

Completely awesome Heart Robot

The "Heart Robot" was created by a team of Bristol UK researchers and artists in order to investigate the effects that a seemingly emotional machine can have on humans. The puppet responds to changes in sound, light and movement through automated control of eye movement, a virtual heartbeat and breath which inflates his belly and exhaled through his nostrils. It seems a credit to these lifelike features that so many find him lovable despite his somewhat ghostly appearance.

Dare we say that we actually like something from McDonalds? It's a billboard that was set up in Chicago last fall to promote their "health conscious" menu, and just won a Gold Award for Leo Burnett at the Innovative Advertising Awards.

Fast Food News (a prime TreeHugger source of breaking news) says "the creative team worked closely with a horticulturalist to create a billboard that could start with 1½-inch spouts and grow into lush leaves. The garden appears to be safe from being plucked apart by birds because there is no place for them to perch and peck."

LucyandBart is a collaboration between Lucy McRae and Bart Hess described as an instinctual stalking of fashion, architecture, performance and the body. They share a fascination with genetic manipulation and beauty expression. Unconsciously their work touches upon these themes, however it is not their intention to communicate this. They work in a primitive and limitless way creating future human shapes, blindly discovering low – tech prosthetic ways for human enhancement.
