A fearless crew of ‘pataphysical doctors went on an art expedition to Treasure Island, looking for hidden gems and inspiration. This call to adventure came from Drs. Canard and Figurine, and we were joined by Drs. Heatshrink, Really and Truly.

 

We started by scouring this quaint flea market, where we found many worthy artifacts for our Time Machine and other art projects. We then headed over to Building 180, where some of Burning Man’s most treasured artworks were created. There, we met with artist Peter Hudson, who showed us Eternal Return, his latest stroboscopic zoetrope, which is an amazing work of art and science.

 

We also got a chance to view some other legendary artworks in this building, before it closes down at the end of the month, including Marco Cochrane’s original models for Bliss Dance and his large-scale steel sculptures of nude women.

 

It was an inspiring visit, and I enjoyed visiting this mecca of Burning Man art -- and meeting Peter, whom I had heard so much about. And it was great fun to go on this little expedition with my maker friends, to collect art debris and inspiration for our next creations!

Each Saturday, the good doctors make art together at Pataphysical Studios.

 

Here are this week’s notable art projects:

• Drs. Really and Rindbrain created a banner for an art protest, ‘Traffic Jam Valley’

• Dr. Rindbrain developed ‘Magical Thought’, an illuminated wonderbox

• Dr. Fiske dropped by to record an impromptu video of Pataphysical Studios

• Dr. Figurine showed off the head and body of her Owl for our Dada Exhibit

• Dr. Fabio presented composite sketches for the Time Machine, based on team designs

• Dr. Truly demonstrated how to share videos on social media while lying flat on your back

• Dr. Canard discussed her Dada Mobile with Dr. Zboon, who then created a greeting card

• Dr. Fabio showed off a new circle design for the Crazy Clock, discarding its old frame

 

We then went on a nice walk to Oakwood Valley. On the way, Dr. Rindbrain re-discovered himself and nearby dimensions on a neighborhood pole. We then played in a secret grove of bay trees, deep in the heart of the valley.

 

Vive la ‘patpahysique!

Thank you!

This movie (and especially the book) had a tremendous impact on my life. The Time Machine and H. G. Wells inspired me to become a writer.

First sketches and models for the Time Machine, a new interactive art project created by Pataphysical Studios.

 

In this brainstorm session, each team member sketched out their own ideas, then discussed them with the group, to design our upcoming time travel experience together.

 

Next, we plan to create a composite design with some of these ideas, to integrate them into a single blueprint.

 

To be continued ...

Doraemon has been an integral part of my childhood, and I believe many of you share the same experience too!

 

Please support and spread the word about this project and let us embark on a great adventure with Doraemon again!

 

The set is filled with accurate details such as Nobita's desk, Tatami mats, bookshelves filled with books and toys, and Doraemon's sleeping area in the closet.

 

The set also includes iconic gadgets like the Anywhere Door, the Time Machine, and will feature 4 minifigures: Doraemon, Nobita Nobi, their creators Hiroshi Fujimoto San and Motoo Abiko San.

 

So let's us slide down the drawer onto the time machine and off to another unforgettable adventure!

Back To The Future

TimeMachine Just Dive in.

A DeLorean time machine replica from the Back to the Future movies. There is no plaque or sign claiming it being screen used or a replica, however I learned the museum sent a stock DeLorean to Universal Studios' prop dept. to convert it to a time machine. Located at the Historic Auto Attractions museum in Roscoe, Illinois.

I just came into a slew (a huge box) of old Classics Illustrated comics...

 

...another amazing H. G. Wells' version, this one "The Time Machine" from the mid-1950's.

This TARDIS-model is about 8 cm wide and 18 cm high.\r\nLike my smaller Version, this one also hasn´t any playability, so it is more for the collector fans.

The Pataphysical Time Machine has awakened!

 

In May 2021, the good doctors at Pataphysical Studios started gathering again in our enchanted art garden, to resume work on our collective art project.

 

We didn’t waste any time getting the Time Machine up and running again:

• Dr. Fabio brought Dr. Albert Einstein back to life as an illuminated talking head in his Dreamer artwork, along with Greta Thunberg;

• Dr. Geo and David installed a new porthole, whose motorized iris will open and close to reveal these illustrious characters;

• Dr. Rindbrain added a magical spinning hand to our exhibit, while painting new shoes and animals for friends and family;

• Dr. Really set up a sub-anal sound system under our cosmic bench, aptly decorated by Dr. Skidz.

• Dr. Heatshrink put the finishing touches on his illuminated jewelry box;

• Dr. Firebird served us refreshments and prepared to paint her Rosebud panel;

• Dr. Truly came all the way from the far reaches of the North Bay to say hi and hand out lovely patches;

• Many other doctors came to shoot the breeze in the front deck: Drs. Judy, Tout d’Suite and Zboon, to name but a few.

 

We hope you enjoy these videos and photos of our first time back together in over a year, due to the pandemic. It’s been such a pleasure to reconnect with our old art pals and celebrate the return of the spring together. Let's hope this is only the start of a new Post-Pandemic Age of Enlightenment. Vive la machine à explorer le temps!

The good doctors at Pataphysical Studios have started work on their next madcap invention: the Time Machine.

 

On a sunny Saturday afternoon, we assembled the wood frame of the time machine, which Drs. Rindbrain and Figurine had built earlier at the Tam High woodshop. All the pieces fell in place nicely in the art greenhouse, and the structure was up within an hour. This pentagon can now fit up to a dozen pataphysicians (albeit squished together like sardines), as demonstrated in our group portrait. Next week, we will add the walls and paper them up, to start sketching our first ideas for this interactive art exhibit.

 

In other news:

• Dr. Figurine brought a giant fish head she had created years ago and gave it a new life with a fresh coat of paint.

• Dr. Heatshrink and Igor discussed plans for the time machine controller (kudos to Drs. Really and Truly for giving him a ride so he could join us while his ankle is still broken).

• Dr. Truly painted a lovely pair of boots and gave another of her beautiful medals to Dr. Zboon.

• Dr. Phylora joined the art hive, kissed the fish head and sorted beads for Violet’s float

• Drs. Canard, Fabio and Igor hacked an old clock whose needles will spin unpredictably when you press a button in the time machine.

• Dr. Tout d’Suite created more ‘pataphysical talismans

• Dr. Rindbrain played his flute, tended to the art hive, and started painting another pair of shoes

• Dr. Canard leaped into the air to show her aikido rolls and prepared another mobile

• Dr. Zboon storyboarded and pitched a new twist for Violet’s Journey, to bring more life into our fairy tale for Dr. Canard’s animatronic ducks

• Dr. Really created a poster for our upcoming exhibit of the slot machine at the Dada World Fair

• Dr. Fabio prepared an oval float for Violet and the animatronic ducks, to cover their robot parts

 

The mojo flowed freely in the art garden. Fire in the hole!

Many people have heard of BMX, most don't understand what Flatland is, though. I chose this picture because by definition you ride your BMX bike on "flat land" when riding Flatland and there is a lot of that in the foreground in this picture.

 

I put the camera on the floor on a Manfrotto 709B and asked a friend to push the button. Thank you James! I also used Pocketwizards to fire my flashes.

A divine journey through the Past

A fearless crew of ‘pataphysical doctors went on an art expedition to Treasure Island, looking for hidden gems and inspiration. This call to adventure came from Drs. Canard and Figurine, and we were joined by Drs. Heatshrink, Really and Truly.

 

We started by scouring this quaint flea market, where we found many worthy artifacts for our Time Machine and other art projects. We then headed over to Building 180, where some of Burning Man’s most treasured artworks were created. There, we met with artist Peter Hudson, who showed us Eternal Return, his latest stroboscopic zoetrope, which is an amazing work of art and science.

 

We also got a chance to view some other legendary artworks in this building, before it closes down at the end of the month, including Marco Cochrane’s original models for Bliss Dance and his large-scale steel sculptures of nude women.

 

It was an inspiring visit, and I enjoyed visiting this mecca of Burning Man art -- and meeting Peter, whom I had heard so much about. And it was great fun to go on this little expedition with my maker friends, to collect art debris and inspiration for our next creations!
