In progress

Ok, just a peek at what I'm working on these days. This is one section (still in progress) of a 12ft long table piece that I'll reassemble in Illinois as part of a show later this month. More 'trees' will be involved, possibly flocking and sand but I haven't decided. Hybridization of 'real world' with virtual....ever changing, shifting spaces, layered realms...

Of course! It's going to be at Room 305 Gallery- 510 E.Washington St. Suite 304, Bloomington, Illinois. No idea if that is near you or far...but the opening reception will be Friday Nov.14th from 5-7 and I'll be there to install and for that. I'd love to meet you (and any other LJers)in person if it's close enough!:)Gallery number is (309)824-6493 in case.

for some reason, try as i might, i can't find the giant mutant monster attacking the city. i know it's there somewhere, but i just don't see it - gigantic reptile's fire breath? humungous monkey and his banana of death? massive cephalopod with millions of tentacles? super crab with laser beams shooting out of eye-stalks? it's been slumbering below the earth's crust for millenia... what's a city without a monster?

great work! all those little bitty buildings and even tiny-tinier peoples! this reminds me of my wargaming days. i should do a little foto-shoot of some of the terrain i've built... one glorious day, i promise... :o)

do you have a link to a description of your work? ie about it, it's purpose, what it means to you etc

[identity profile] sendao.livejournal.com 2003-11-03 12:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Speaking of purpose, if I show up in New York, we're definitely working on this particular pier of art. :-D

Heh.:) THAT's what I like to hear! How long were you going to make me carry those heavy dreams with non-tech hands???:)

[identity profile] sendao.livejournal.com 2003-11-03 12:26 pm (UTC)(link)
As long as possible! Once tech hands touch them, they'll be ruined forever. Muahahaha...

Don't you use MSN or AIM or anything, by the way?

[identity profile] avad.livejournal.com 2003-11-03 01:25 pm (UTC)(link)
*sniff* aw, don't ruin em!
Nope. I don't have/do those. Today I'm being bad as it is...I keep coming back to the computer every 15 min. or so in between paint marker work.Baaaaaaad.;)

Serious Yum.

In my daydream, every airplane flying is required to carry a working live videocamera that broadcasts its image to anyone below with a reciever. No matter where you live, if there's a plane flying overhead, you can see your house from it.

Until then, I have your landscapes to dream about.

:)* Sigh* I love your daydream. I agree.I'm so desperate for close aerial views of my house and area and also the area and house I grew up in. All those satellites have it...but I can't see....:( I went to some of those aerial sites...but it just wasn't close enough to orient...I was so disoriented, black and white, and nothing looked familiar...

Gorgeous :)

Contact?

Your work is still quite fascinating. Do we hold on to our grudges and differences of vision together, content in leaving them as an explanation of our disconnectedness?
