On a peaceful Saturday afternoon, the good doctors at Pataphysical Studios made art together and explored new dimensions across space and time.
This week, we worked on our Time Machine and our new Dada exhibit:
• Dr. Canard made a birthday card for Dr. Pozar (a.k.a. Heatshrink)
• Dr. Figurine soldered more electronic parts for her theramine
• Drs. Fabio and Zboon experimented with Time Machine controls and seating
• Drs. Rindbrain and Igor discussed the roof and structure of the Time Machine
• Dr. Really presented the latest plans for the Dada exhibit, dressed as a Renaissance man
• We all discussed what Dada means to us in the 21st century
• Dr. Tout d’Suite reviewed Dr. Figurine’s picture book about Dada with Dr. Canard
• Drs. Fabio and Canard discussed adding quotes about time to their Crazy Clock
• Dr. Canard played with ‘Pataphysical Talismans of different sizes, laser cut by Dr. Fabio
To quote artist Man Ray, “Dada is a state of mind”. That state of mind was very much alive at the Pataphysical Studios this week.
Fire in the hole!

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!

‘Twas a dark and stormy Saturday afternoon at Pataphysical Studios, but the doctors braved the pouring rain and came out in droves to make art together.
We celebrated Dr. Figurine’s birthday in style, with a nice apple pie and small gifts ranging from a DVD on how to play the theremin to a handmade wooden box and stock in the Mind Shaft Society.
We all sat around our Time Machine framework and had stimulating discussions about our next pataphysical invention -- as well as our many related maker art projects:
• Dr. Rindbrain demonstrated the new remote-controlled lights for the Time Machine
• Dr. Fabio had his head examined after a rough encounter with a rose bush
• Dr. Canard prepared electronic supplies for students of the City of the Future class
• Drs. Figurine and Heatshrink started building a theremin together
• Drs. Really and Canard displayed an arted-up jug of ‘pataphysical water
• Drs. Canard and Fabio used a Ouija board to reach out to the spirit of Alfred Jarry
• Dr. Rindbrain painted another pair of shoes while discussing art with Dr. Zboon
• Dr. Fabio proposed ideas for the Time Machine controller, with the Ouija board as an example
• Drs. Figurine lit up the pataphysical flag pole with El Wire
A fine time was had by all and we kept learning from each other for the greater good.
Fire in the hole!

Steampunk, before it became the full-blown sub-culture it is today, started out as a science-fiction sub-genre in the 1970s. Its fundamental inspirations go all the way back to 19th century Victorian writers, such as Jules Verne (author of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea) and H.G. Wells (author of The Time Machine).

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!

I thought I'd have a go at the obligatory in car light trails shot. I mounted the camera on a magic arm which was held in place via a suction cup attached to the glass of the sunroof. I also held a 430EXII in place using the same method, as the left side of the dash was relatively dark compared to all the lights on the right. I then used a remote to repeatedly fire the camera so that I could start if going and then concentrate on the driving.
This is actually a composite of four shots of light trails as I went round a roundabout. I only used one shot for my arm / hand on the steering wheel but four shots in lighten mode for the windscreen and reflections in the carbon fibre trim.
Strobist:

We spent another magnificent afternoon at Pataphysical Studios this Saturday, making art together … and playing at the edges of time.
Our visitors this week were Jim Neidhardt (now Dr. Neidhardt) and his lovely wife Denise (Dr. Now?), longtime friends of Drs. Rindbrain, Skidz and the Queen of the Desert. Jim showed us the ‘hypno-disks’ he is working on to create experiences like this surreal Duchamp film, Anemic Cinema: youtu.be/AsnhBUp7xxM?t=24s
We had a great conversation and I knew they were like-minded folks when Dr. Neidhardt and I both exclaimed at the same time the same exact phrase: “Life IS Change!”. Jim is interested in contributing to our madcap art adventure, so stay tuned. Learn more about his work at: neidhardtstudio.com/
Throughout the day, we brainstormed more ideas for our new Time Machine, while working on sundry maker art projects:
• Dr. Rindbrain and Canard put the finishing touches on their music box
• Drs. Figurine and Heatshrink prepared to assemble a theremin together
• Dr. Fabio drew a first sketch of what a time controller might look like
• Dr. Igor and Heatshrink both gave Dr. Figurine nice gifts for her birthday
• Dr. Tout de Suite considered lighting up her goggles, chose to paint instead
• Dr. Zboon discussed time travel and made a birthday card for his friend Ernesto
• Dr. Canard created a colorful zen map, inviting other doctors to art it up
• Dr. Rindbrain added more rainbow-colored lights to the Time Machine framework
It was great to stretch out to the edges of time and back again in the company of my friends.

Before the WAOJ last week I had the pleasure to shoot with Dez, first time really shooting flatland, fun stuff!
This is a photograph of the telephone kiosk painted by George Shaw the Turner Prize finalist in 2011. Please do go and see his exhibition at the Herbert Art Gallery in Coventry, my photos do not do his paintings any justice at all.
The Exhibition
George Shaw: I woz ere
18 November 2011 – 11 March 2012
For the past 15 years, recent Turner Prize nominee George Shaw has been making paintings of the Tile Hill housing estate where he grew up. Using Humbrol enamels, Shaw began making the works in a fit of nostalgia after he had left home and moved away. Over time, the paintings became a kind of ‘I woz ere’ written in retrospect.
For the first time, this collection of paintings is shown in the place they represent. Many viewers will recognise the specific pubs, street corners, rows of garages, trees and shops, but less familiar is the unsettling resonance that Shaw brings to the work.
Displayed alongside these landscapes is a new series of watercolours of previously painted places as they exist here and now. Accompanying the exhibition, Shaw also presents the works of art he made as a child in the early 1970s to the summer before he went to art school in 1985.
Spring is back at Pataphysical Studios, where we spent another lovely Saturday afternoon, making art together and exploring new dimensions across space and time.
This week, we developed our Time Machine and started work on our new Dada exhibit:
• Dr. Rindbrain showed a new mockup for the Time Machine viewing frame
• Dr. Max and his family came to experience the magic of the art garden

‘Clint, now you’re going to feel a little discombobulated from the chronoshift. Don’t worry about it.’
We spent another magnificent afternoon at Pataphysical Studios this Saturday, making art together … and playing at the edges of time.
Our visitors this week were Jim Neidhardt (now Dr. Neidhardt) and his lovely wife Denise (Dr. Now?), longtime friends of Drs. Rindbrain, Skidz and the Queen of the Desert. Jim showed us the ‘hypno-disks’ he is working on to create experiences like this surreal Duchamp film, Anemic Cinema: youtu.be/AsnhBUp7xxM?t=24s
We had a great conversation and I knew they were like-minded folks when Dr. Neidhardt and I both exclaimed at the same time the same exact phrase: “Life IS Change!”. Jim is interested in contributing to our madcap art adventure, so stay tuned. Learn more about his work at: neidhardtstudio.com/
Throughout the day, we brainstormed more ideas for our new Time Machine, while working on sundry maker art projects:
• Dr. Rindbrain and Canard put the finishing touches on their music box
• Drs. Figurine and Heatshrink prepared to assemble a theremin together
• Dr. Fabio drew a first sketch of what a time controller might look like
• Dr. Igor and Heatshrink both gave Dr. Figurine nice gifts for her birthday
• Dr. Tout de Suite considered lighting up her goggles, chose to paint instead
• Dr. Zboon discussed time travel and made a birthday card for his friend Ernesto
• Dr. Canard created a colorful zen map, inviting other doctors to art it up
• Dr. Rindbrain added more rainbow-colored lights to the Time Machine framework
It was great to stretch out to the edges of time and back again in the company of my friends.
Fire in the hole!

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!

‘Twas a dark and stormy Saturday afternoon at Pataphysical Studios, but the doctors braved the pouring rain and came out in droves to make art together.
We celebrated Dr. Figurine’s birthday in style, with a nice apple pie and small gifts ranging from a DVD on how to play the theremin to a handmade wooden box and stock in the Mind Shaft Society.
We all sat around our Time Machine framework and had stimulating discussions about our next pataphysical invention -- as well as our many related maker art projects:
• Dr. Rindbrain demonstrated the new remote-controlled lights for the Time Machine
• Dr. Fabio had his head examined after a rough encounter with a rose bush
• Dr. Canard prepared electronic supplies for students of the City of the Future class
• Drs. Figurine and Heatshrink started building a theremin together
• Drs. Really and Canard displayed an arted-up jug of ‘pataphysical water
• Drs. Canard and Fabio used a Ouija board to reach out to the spirit of Alfred Jarry
• Dr. Rindbrain painted another pair of shoes while discussing art with Dr. Zboon
• Dr. Fabio proposed ideas for the Time Machine controller, with the Ouija board as an example
• Drs. Figurine lit up the pataphysical flag pole with El Wire
A fine time was had by all and we kept learning from each other for the greater good.
Fire in the hole!
