The Wired festival brings upfront music, audiovisual art, new media and live cinema together in the shape of a mini-festival. Wired is about experiencing art in a very easy accesible way and in a natural atmosphere.
The first edition of the Wired festival took place last July at De Besturing in The Hague featuring live music from Aux Raus, Adolf Butler, The Wooden Constructions, The Moi Non Plus, Gameboys A Gogo, Klopje Popje The Routines and Organisms. Next to the music program we invited the following artists to create an Interactive Playground of visual art installations: Yacine Sebti, Mike Rijnierse, Bas de Boer, Marcus Graf, Jessica de Boer, Gosse de Kort and Eelco de Vries.
Saturday December 19th will bring us the second special winter edition of Wired namely Winter Wired '09. We've picked BINK 36 as venue for the festival as it offers huge area's at an unique industrial location: the former KPN building in De Binckhorst (The Hague). The Winter Wired '09 festival will feature more art genres than before with live cinema and fashion being integrated in the program.
Winter Wired '09 is supported by VSB Fonds and Gemeente Den Haag.
Preparing to install the overhead wires.
"To achieve good high-speed current collection, it is necessary to keep the contact wire geometry within defined limits. This is usually achieved by supporting the contact wire from above by a second wire known as the messenger wire (US & Canada) or catenary (UK). This wire approximates the natural path of a wire strung between two points, a catenary curve, thus the use of catenary to describe this wire or sometimes the whole system. This wire is attached to the contact wire at regular intervals by vertical wires known as droppers or drop wires. The messenger wire is supported regularly at structures, by a pulley, link, or clamp. The whole system is then subjected to a mechanical tension."
This sculptured wire pendant has been made with cabachons in Jade and Paua shell, swaros, silver beads, tourmaline beads and absolutely miles of sterling silver wire. Measuring approximately 7cm by 3 1/2 cm it is a very solid pendant, with the green of the jade complimented beautifully by the colours of the paua shell. This was my first attempt at a sculptured wire pendant and I am thrilled with the result.
barbed wire holding the trelis for my grape vines up to the fencepost. it's a very bubblegum-and-duct tape setup.
Usually, I work hard to eliminate overhewd wires from my photos, often resorting to Photoshop to remove them when they interfere with what I am interested in showing. This is especially so when I am working on architectural shots.
We were visiting Clarksburg, ON on Thursday and I noticed all the wires overhead which caught my interest, especially with the dark blue sky and clouds behind them. So I decised to focus on them and see what I could do, intentionally putting them into the frame.
Now I am trying to figure out if they work best in colour or B&W. I can't say I have a real preference, although I am leaning towards the B&W images.
There are four shots in this series I would value your opinion and any critique on how the shots could have been improved.
I shaped the ornament out of silver coloured copper wire and wrapped the beads to create this lovely ornament. Could be a tree ornament or maybe a suncatcher.

These black twisted wire easels are a perfect size for ACEO and ATC 's. They look great for your collection, and can be purchased in a set of 6. Please see my profile more more info.
I grabbed the wire with the round-nose pliers where I wanted the straight part to end, and the loop (to hang the feather from) to begin.

This is almost identical to another picture I took here a few years ago but I had a better sky for this one.
