Nadie puede llegar a la cima armado sólo de talento... el talento es innato, pero el esfuerzo transforma el talento en genio...

The “Méta Harmonie IV” (1985) , considered as very typical for the work of Jean Tinguely. Shot at the KunstHal, Rotterdam.

Los ganaderos de esta zona recogen los helechos y los amontonan en montones llamados metas o metak en euskera. luego son utilizados durante el invierno como cama para el ganado.
The interior design of the Meta Probe is an extrapolation of other Space: 1999 designs and influences from other space environments, such as those seen in the ISS and movies such as “2001: A Space Odyssey,” “Interstellar,” and “The Martian.” The design of the spaceships in these movies followed a similar design ethos and considered zero-gravity as part of their design strategy.
The Four-Cylinder Section have airlock doors are either end. These cylinders are storage for food (orange), water (blue), and oxygen/nitrogen (red), meeting the basic human physiological and metabolic needs for space travel. Since the Meta Probe was expected to travel within the solar system, the need for extensive supplies was probably not necessary. I thought that food could be packaged and stored in these cylinders or that there was a way to continuously grow food in these containers. Water would be used and efficiently reclaimed and the oxygen/nitrogen could either be pressurized tanks or fitted with oxygen generators, making oxygen out of water. In this instance, the red cylinders would contain water instead of pressurized oxygen. Water could also be reclaimed by condensers removing water vapour from the module’s air. The Four Cylinder Section is connected to the propellant tanks by the Rotating Section.

Dad taking a photo of me taking a photo with the iPhone of the giant iPhone at the Walnut Creek, CA Apple store.
I spotted these two guys taking photos at the famous Marienplatz subway station and decided to take a snap while one of them was taking a photo of the other one taking a photo of the lights.

meta_creation lab: inter-actors, attractors and the aesthetics of complexity

A collaborative workshop interfacing movement art practices, digital creativity, portable computation and networked systems.
This workshop is a collaborative lab to creatively explore the contemporary approaches, practices and aesthetics of self organization and of complex systems within the dynamic couplings of mind, body and information/data flows.
This workshop is an open space for experimentation and inquiry within a well defined theoretical/aesthetic frame and open space format: the participants self-organize in different node projects (collaborative and flexible groups) in order to investigate and deploy bottom-up architectures as compositional prototyping strategies and processes. It explores interactivity plus generativity.
An embodied/distributed cognition approach is used to generate physical activities and games, guided discussions/conversations about relevant artists works and concepts exploring the aesthetic of complex systems and emergence.
Open source technologies and methodologies will be explored in combination with composition in real-time.
Inter and trans-disciplinary explorations are encouraged and diversity is the main asset.
Several nodes of research projects are suggested:
Sampling, recombinations and mashups
New Internet technologies (web 2.0) and collaborative creation
Post-pc technologies apps, tablets and mobile technologies
Life logging and creative process
Media Capturing and Real time processing
Bottom-up architectures of generative systems
Hybrid realities and alternative sites
Portable cameras and video production
Online video and video straming
Cloud/social computing
Locative media/Mobile
Performance, rule systems and algorithms.
Computer aided choreography
Portable hardware as interfaces/interactive media control
Social media for distributed creativity and knowledge production
Networked documentaries/storytelling.

When considering the design of the Meta Probe model, I was confronted with various options on how to render the cylindrical sections. I looked at Lego’s own round pieces and the assemblage of angle and curved bricks. In the end, I chose different approaches for different sections. The design of this element was crucial when trying to connect stud-to-stud pieces. Using the small cylinder blocks to join the rounded segments allowed me to devise a modular and connecting system. Ideally, I would have liked this to be completely enclosed but it is a compromise I had to live with to achieve the larger goal.
A guy I know on Flickr (and have met IRL) got a photo on Explore. Then he put up an image on his photostream showing the stats that resulted. Then THAT image got on Explore. :-)
