The Weather Makers is the first solo exhibition in Scotland by Canadian artist Kelly Richardson and is programmed as part of Dundee Contemporary Arts’ Discovery Film Festival. Richardson creates hyper-real digital films of rich and complex landscapes that have been manipulated using CGI, animation and sound. Weaving together myth and metaphor with scientific research and new digital technologies, The Weather Makers will present three large-scale video works alongside a new print series.
The exhibition asks the viewer to consider what the future might look like if we continue on our current trajectory of planetary pillaging and consumption, and why we have allowed ourselves to arrive at such a moment of global environmental crisis.
Mariner 9 (2012), Kelly Richardson
A 12-metre-long panoramic view of a Martian landscape set hundreds of years in the future, Mariner 9 (2012) presented in this partnership between Dundee Contemporary Arts and NEoN Digital Arts Festival, evokes the human search for life beyond our own planet that continues even as we damage or destroy entire ecosystems on Earth. This vast video work was created using scenery-generation software employed by the film and gaming industries in combination with technical data from NASA’s missions to Mars to produce a faithful artist’s rendering of Martian terrain, populated by the debris from centuries of exploration.
In Orion Tide (2013-14), Richardson presents a desert punctuated by spurts of light and smoke repeatedly launching into the dark night sky. The viewer is left to question what these rocket-like movements are; why they have been launched; and who or what they are carrying. They could be departing explorers searching for a new world or perhaps the escape of a group of planetary refugees, a mass exodus of humanity.
In Leviathan (2011), a 20-minute loop of footage shot on Caddo Lake in Uncertain, Texas displays the region’s unique bald cypress trees in their swamp environment. Filmed from a single vantage point, like a painting set in motion, Richardson has digitally enhanced the nearly monochromatic setting with strange yellow tendrils of light, undulating and twisting beneath the water, hinting at an undiscovered or mutated bioluminant life-form, or perhaps the aftermath of something altogether more disturbing.
Accompanying the exhibition’s large-scale video works will be Richardson’s latest series of chromogenic prints, Pillars of Dawn, which present images of an imaginary desert in which trees and terrain have been physically crystallised by changes in the environment.
As part of NEoN Digital Arts Festival, Kelly has also been invited to curate an exhibition of digital art making reference to both her own immersive landscape work and the festival theme of Media Archaeology. That exhibition will run in Centrespace in the Visual Research Centre on the lower ground floor of DCA, open from Sat 11 November – Sun 19 November 2017.
Richardson currently lives and works on Vancouver Island where she is Associate Professor in Visual Arts at the University of Victoria. Her work is held in many major international collections including the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, SMoCA and Albright-Knox Art Gallery to the National Gallery of Canada, Art Gallery of Ontario, Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, Arts Council Collection England and Towner, Eastbourne.
Her work has been selected for the Beijing, Busan, Canadian, Gwangiu and Montreal biennales, and recent solo exhibitions include SMoCA, CAG Vancouver, VOID Derry, Naturhistorisches Museum Wien, and a major survey at the Albright-Knox.

Maker Faire is the Greatest Show (and Tell) on Earth—a family-friendly showcase of invention, creativity and resourcefulness, and a celebration of the Maker movement. It’s a place where people show what they are making, and share what they are learning.
Makers range from tech enthusiasts to crafters to homesteaders to scientists to garage tinkerers. They are of all ages and backgrounds. The aim of Maker Faire is to entertain, inform, connect and grow this community.
The original Maker Faire was held in San Mateo, CA and in 2013 celebrated its eighth annual Bay Area event with some 900 makers and 120,000 people in attendance. World Maker Faire New York, the other flagship event, has grown in four years to 600+ makers and 75,000 attendees. Detroit, Kansas City, Rome, Oslo, Tokyo, Newcastle (UK), and Shenzhen are the home of "featured" 2014 Maker Faires (200+ makers), and almost 100 community-driven, independently organized Mini Maker Faires are now being produced around the United States and the world, including right here in Portland.

Work from friends, colleagues and students who share an interest in creating culture for, or about, worms. Many were students of “Vermiculture Furniture”, a course I co-taught with Kay Bea Jones and Ann Silverman. Others are artist colleagues, volunteers, close friends and my partner, Ken Rinaldo. Together, we form a loosely affiliated club, which can include you. Please join us in the making. Visit wormculture.org

Maker Faire 2017 was bigger, louder and hotter than previous years. Many of the attractions were still the same, but they felt more grown up. I particularly enjoyed the illuminated art in the Dark Room, such as Peter Hudson’s 3D Stroboscopic Zoetrope. I also enjoyed all the ingenious robot exhbits and the Traveling Spectacular’s vaudeville performance
I gave a talk about our Maker Art classes on Sunday morning. We teach children to create magical worlds together, combining art, tech and storytelling. Our students get really engaged in the process, which helps them develop their creative, problem-solving and social skills.
The presentation was well received by a great group of teachers, parents and kids. I connected with several librarians and teachers interested in teaching Maker Art in their communities. And one mom reached out to me afterwards to say this was the best talk she heard this year.
Maker Faire remains the Mecca for Bay Area DIY hobbyists and it was well worth the trip for me. I made some good connections after my talk and learned more about robots for our next classes. Onwards!

ICSC staff showcase the latest models of the TekPak, a portable solar power generator, at the Manila Mini Maker Faire 2019 at the Mind Museum on June 22. The maker faire will be held until 6 PM of June 23. The TekPak is a sustainable and renewable solution to communications, lighting, medical, and other energy needs. TekPak 4 was designed by ICSC, Frederick Espitola of Solar Pilipinas, and Haiyan survivors. TekPak 5a and 5b were designed by ICSC, RE-Serve volunteers, Solar Scholars and Haiyan survivors, with support from Tuklas Innovation Labs. The units were assembled by Tacloban City Solar Scholars. The TekPak is the key component in the Solar Scholars training program of RE Charge Pilipinas. The program trains residents from disaster-prone and survivor communities to assess their energy needs and to utilize and maintain renewable energy systems, including the TekPak, during emergency and peacetime situations. RE-Charge Pilipinas, a post-Haiyan initiative of the Institute for Climate and Sustainable Cities, has reached seven provinces and continues to work with organizations and communities from all over the Philippines.
