To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Dada movement, a Pseudo-Symposium on 'Data Dada' was held at Stanford on April 13, 2016.

 

This event was hosted by cultural historian Piero Scaruffi, organizer of the Leonardo Art/Science Evening Rendezvous (LASERs). It was a stimulating evening with many kindred spirits, such as interactive artist Kal Spelletich (see my short video of his noise machines in this set), futurist composer Luciano Chessa (playing his electric saw), Jonathan Keats (presenting his Copernican Art Manifesto) and Burning Man's co-founder John Law, to name but a few. Through these talks, Piero aimed to link today's age to Dada's age, which was just what we needed.

 

I was invited invited to present our ‘Pataphysical Slot Machine at this extravagant centennial, and gave a short talk in full regalia about our community-created poetic oracle -- and the peer learning network that evolved from it. People seemed to appreciate our collaborative maker art, and I expect a few of them will come view our work in our upcoming exhibits.

 

I also enjoyed spending time with my friends and art partners who joined us at Stanford: Dr. Skidz, Priscilla Queen of the Desert and Dr. Zboon (a.k.a. Mark ‘Spoonman’ Petrakis, who rode to Stanford with me): we had some great conversations about art, dada, politics, theater and the rise of a new humanism.

 

The highlight of the evening for me was meeting Kal, who demonstrated two of his noise machines, including a sling shot divining rod instrument and a robot that plays the violin when people make its light shine on a pine cone. His interactive art is really original, bringing a grunge aesthetic to a field that’s often a bit too slick. He creates magic by connecting everyday objects to do wild things with simple electronics.

 

Overall, it was a fun and informative evening, and I enjoyed meeting so many 'like minds', at the frontier of knowledge and imagination. Merci, les amis!

Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what’s inside you, to make your soul grow. -Kurt Vonnegut

more photo fun - coming soon to my big cartel shop (see profile for details)

When I have the time, and the inspiration, I like to sit down and have a bit of a sketch. These are new watercolours I haven't had the chance to use yet...

This took, like, 30 minutes to do. I wasn't holding on to Rebecca's hair or anything, I used self-timer to do this. All I did was crop and auto-fix this.

Wishing you a year filled with love, joy, and creativity. May 2012 be a wonderful year for you.

 

Who could resist photographing a field of lavender with a driftwood sign that said, "LOVE"? Not me!

Creativity is a lot like looking at the world through a kaleidoscope. You look at a set of elements, the same ones everyone else sees, but then reassemble those floating bits and pieces into an enticing new possibility.

This is exactly what I was hoping for (apart from the coffee stains from the previous page!) I bought and used my first set of watercolour pencils...
