Kinetic Rain (2012)
Changi Airport, Terminal 1, Singapore
ARTIST: ART+COM Studios
Overview
Passengers and visitors entering the Departure Check-in Hall at Changi Airport’s Terminal 1 (T1) are captivated by the art installation Kinetic Rain. The installation comes as a pair installed several meters apart above the central escalators and visible from many locations. The two elements move in dialogue through a fifteen-minute choreographed piece, evolving from abstract to figurative three-dimensional forms carrying the theme "dream of flying". The 1,216 copper-plated droplets transform into the different forms through slow, fluid movements. Between shapes reminiscent of gusts of wind, undulating waves and abstract membranes, majestic wings, an airplane and a kite are recognizable.
Goals
In the course of refurbishment works Changi Airport Group commissioned us to create a signature art installation for the Departure Check-in-Hall of T1 in response to the terminal’s theme “Tropical City” in keeping with Singapore’s garden city status and where rain, is very much a part of the tropical climate. At the same time, the art piece was supposed to carry the theme of flying and to fill the emotional void that the installation ‘Mylar Cords’ had left which vanished with the terminal’s old interior. Clearly the new artwork was supposed to bring some calm to the busy travelling atmosphere of the spacious departure hall, and to slow down people’s pace, providing a moment of contemplation. The given location above the two escalators was both challenging and inspiring. It requested a piece that would work from all perspectives and at all times, while moving on the escalators, while passing it on the upper level, and while looking at it from afar.
4-5 year olds explore a different form of art - installation art, which they watch, wander through, construct, knock over, play games in and develop their ideas and interests.
The Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA) occupies a converted factory building complex occupying 13-acres in North Adams, Massachusetts. It is one of the largest centers for contemporary visual art in the United States. The complex was originally built by the Arnold Print Works, which operated on the site from 1860 to 1942. MASS MoCA opened in 1999 with 19 galleries and 100,000 sq ft (9,300 m2) of exhibition space. It is large enough to put on exhibitions in individual buildings for extended periods - a Sol Lewitt building has five stories full of work conceived by him (and executed by others) on display until 2033; another building contains three large-scale installations by Anself Keifer on display until 2028.
The Boiler Room is one of the buidlings and when I was there it contained an installation of audio art. And old boiler room stuff that was highly photogenic.

The Collector was inspired by my design background and by the process of taking two different mediums and helping them to co-exist. Yarn and the computer don't have much in common except for maybe ordering it (yarn) online. This disconnect was the starting point for the installation. One of the most commonly used tools in any creative computer software is the "color picker." I chose this tool as inspiration because of the concept of limitless possibilities.
I have never felt so strongly about one medium until I started working with yarn. I feel that yarn is a medium too often overlooked because of its association with grandmother's and their passion for knitting. As an artist, I have found that there are many ways to use the medium of yarn. For this installation I want to demonstrate that by using yarn in an atypical way, it loses its usual appearance and becomes a beautifully elaborate, yet simple, presence.

Installation art
This temporary installation art, called "the third space", was built by 52 interior design students. It consists of almost 1.300.000 cable ties. The students worked on it for about 16.870 hours. Visitors can sit down in cocoon-like bird's nests, stand under a shower of light, and experience this 200 square meters small world, that tries to translate sociological terms like self-portrayal, community and retreat into tangible spatial situations.

Fake it until you make it est un aphorisme qui inspire beaucoup Emmanuel Laflamme. On pourrait dire que ce titre fait référence à sa carrière artistique. Il est fasciné par les théories du complot. Elles suggèrent des façons complètement différentes d’aborder la réalité et il se plait à considérer ce type d’information avec curiosité et scepticisme. La première œuvre traite des théories qui remettent en question l’authenticité de l’alunissage, certaines d’entre elles suggérant même que le tout aurait été réalisé par Stanley Kubrick. La seconde section présente de faux pétroglyphes dans une installation de style muséal. On peut y voir des OVNIs et des extra-terrestres combinés à des symboles égyptiens. L’artiste croit que l’existence des théories du complot témoigne de la méfiance et de la désillusion d’une partie de la population envers les autorités en place.

Bio: Veronica Ryan was born in 1956 in Montserrat, West Indies, grew up in England and currently lives in New York. The fact that parts of Montserrat were destroyed by a volcanic eruption has influenced the direction of her work. Her current work is characterized by a collection of debris on the one hand, while also focusing on notions of partial evidence, remains of things petrified, and traces of last moments. Her installations are made up of plaster casts of everyday objects, like paper plates, arranged in architectural and formal configurations. She has an extensive exhibition history that includes the Tate Modern, London, and major galleries in the United Kingdom and the United States.

« Installée au trottoir sur un coin de rue, La Cabine A se fond dans le paysage urbain avec son interface familière habillée de pictogrammes universellement lisibles tels que l’icône wifi, la voiture ou le ticket. Sa signalétique génère une certaine force d’attraction avec la promesse intrigante d’une gratuité quelconque. Toute tentative d’activer la machine est pourtant entravée par sa surabondance d’instructions absurdes et contradictoires, jusqu’à ce qu’on se rende compte de sa véritable futilité et du canular que nous a tendu l’artiste.
Cette sculpture électroacoustique interactive dresse une caricature de la relation ambiguë que nous entretenons avec les dispositifs électroniques de plus en plus présents dans nos vies de tous les jours. La borne de paiement automatique exerce ici une forme d’autorité troublante sur l’utilisateur en lui imposant une série d’actions à suivre aveuglément. À l’instar des machines, nos comportements seraient eux aussi préprogrammés à un degré parfois préoccupant. »
« C’est avec ma propre expérience, parfois un peu trouble, à essayer de comprendre leur logique, leur fonctionnement, que j’ai eu l’idée d’une borne automatisée qui ne répondrait pas totalement comme on le voudrait. » – Yann Farley
"Rivoli" is the name of the local theater in Seward, Nebraska where this was installed. The actual installation is on City Hall located downtown, Seward. I chose to title it after the local movie theater after attending a show and getting to meet the couple who have owned the theater for over 30 years.
I have never met a couple so in love and kind to other people. They were some of the nicest people I have ever met on my travels. This piece is dedicated to them and all of the great people I met during this installation. Thank you so much for your support!

Okay... so to lighten the mood. I often find myself listening to really bad mashups.. uuggh. There are some things in life I wish I could stop. Im not proud of this but I always think it's interesting to hear what wacky stuff other artists listen to. If you have any good ones, let me know. Ill keep posting them HERE.
