Home-made science Project

(sui generis experiments "establishing the form of things unknown" )

 

3-D experiments which contain a shared sculptural molecule made from pipe cleaners, plaster and paint. (sometimes hats). Experimentation for it's own sake and for the pleasure of making new things.

In the age of machine learning, robotics, and technological dependency, questions of what it means to be human are reflected back to us in new ways by our synthetic creations. Issues of creativity, authorship, inspiration, and philosophy (which have traditionally been recognized as exclusively human traits) come into question as we find ourselves amongst ever more intelligent and capable machines. Works from the human-machine collaboration series explore these questions by using art as tangible philosophy.

50 years after the Apollo 11 lunar landing, we are seeing another strong push for space exploration: from new and renewed space programs in developed and developing countries to innovative technologies and commercial services from private industry. Along the way, cultural production for outer space becomes crucial for humanity as we expand beyond the earthbound. In the past, the desire for exploration and expansion had a profound impact on how we imagined planetary futures. What shall we imagine now? In this exhibition, six projects from the Space Exploration Initiative of MIT Media Lab are asking the same question and bringing possibilities to the (im)possible space: All the projects were successfully deployed and performed in a zero-gravity parabolic flight last year. They are hopes beyond solutions, imaginations, more than facts. Our effort addresses outer space as a critical territory that must be inhabited—imaginatively, artistically, scientifically and collaboratively.

With its inhumane and environmentally destructive production methods, fast fashion has long since surpassed all boundaries. Fashion & Technology offers alternatives to the system with new, sustainable processes. The participatory workshop situation *In the Lab: Processing Fashion* aims to make them visible and tangible. Material development, shaping techniques and design processes that take place before product solutions, are the focus of attention.

White Water/White Noise

 

The concept for this work stemmed from the mythical notion that when putting your ear in front of the opening of a sea shell, one can hear the “watery” home from which it came. I found this idea poetic on various levels and the process of amplifying this sound became a catalyst for the idea of this audio sculpture. The experiment is an intermittent relationship of oscillating open/closed-circuit audio waves that feedback when the megaphone passes in front of the sea shell.

Kartograph updates old maps by drawing new geographic data over the infrastructure of old times using the internet. The selection of the section is based on the location of the machine. The starting material are old atlases and maps that conceivably used to be the main source of knowledge for information regarding countries near or far.

This project aims to explore AI-assisted human-machine integration techniques for overcoming impairments and disabilities. By connecting assistive hardware and auditory/visual/tactile sensors and actuators with a user-adaptive and interactive learning framework, we propose and develop a proof of concept of our “xDiversity AI platform” to meet the various abilities, needs, and demands in our society. Our final goal is a social design and deployment of the assistive technologies towards an inclusive society.

This installation, named (un)shaped, utilizes bubbles in water as a medium. Pouring droplets into water gently from the top, bubbles are generated in it. This phenomenon is called an antibubble, which is a droplet encapsulated by a thin film of gas.

Organic Primitive Bioplastics challenges endless data accumulation and memory, posing an ephemeral paradigm for interacting with objects, driven by organic intelligences. Using a library of biomaterials to give objects a “voice” to communicate, everyday things are transformed into ephemeral information displays that change color, odor, and form in response to fluids.

The last decades have seen an increased momentum and buzz around the idea of a connected world. The evolution of technologies such as the Internet of Things, in which objects are embedded with electronic systems in a sophisticated network that enables the collection and exchange of data, is disrupting the way we live.

Greiner, as a leading global manufacturer of plastic products for a wide range of industries, explores the application of those new technologies. This exhibition presents a sample of 5 different mockups: products manufactured by Greiner which, in combination with electronic components, have the potential to sense and act according to inputs gathered from their environment. These new features allow communication between products, systems and devices, providing an enhanced user experience that goes beyond the materiality of the product itself.

I have linked diversity in the natural world to diversity in the art world by creating a project on New York based crane fly populations. Starting with 6 portraits of crane fly larva (magnified) in the style of various NY painters, I then named and described the species by the artist upon which they are based. I created a population distribution map of each “species” and will provide a short written description of each including physical characteristics (style), distribution (trends), and impact on environment.

Origin stories of a multi-planetary diaspora

In the coming century, humans will become a space-faring species, forming settlements on other planets, even traversing the solar system as wandering nomads. Advancing technologies for inter-planetary habitability to enable new market prospecting underpins current goals to achieve low earth orbit to the moon and Mars by 2033. Energy, water, food and material security – innovations developed for extreme conditions “out there” – are set to be generators of wealth and utopian earthly futures. Seventy-two countries have a space program, while only the government space agencies NASA, CNSA, and RFSA possess human space flight capabilities. Meanwhile, the private sector is propelling advancement. Urgent questions arise: who gets to colonize the life beyond Earth, and what does it mean for those ideas to seed those human futures? Is it possible to dream of other worlds beyond those presented to us through a privatized “cosmos Imaginarium”?

Too Cool For School Art & Science Fair

Harbourfront Centre, Toronto, May 8, 2010

 

The Too Cool For School Art & Science Fair is a convergence of art and science. The event is structured just like a school science fair: participants will display their projects on rows of tables, and will be on hand to discuss their work with the public.

 

The difference is that this event is as much about art as it is about science.

 

Call for Submissions

Deadline: March 26, 2010

 

Calling all dreamers and inventors, original thinkers and adventurous tinkerers, mad scientists and misunderstood artists, anyone with an over-active imagination and a love/hate relationship with the so-called "real world" - we want to meet you and your pet project at the Too Cool For School Art & Science Fair.

 

The participants in the Too Cool for School Art & Science Fair are from all walks of life, amateurs and professionals, many sharing their pet projects with the public for the first time. Participants are selected from an open call for submissions on the basis of originality, depth of inquiry, creative innovation and the element of surprise.

 

The call is open to international entries from anybody aged 15 and over, individuals and groups.

 

Find out how to participate: www.artandsciencefair.ca/call-for-submissions

  

Also coming soon:
