Some old favorites, a poster for a show and some robot disguises.

In seeking to maximize the potential for future dimensional discoveries while maintaining the integrity of existing structures.

space – time
space + time
space x time
space / time

I read a short essay by David Senior, found here. S.R. Ranganathan, quoted in Senior’s essay, was concerned that understanding of knowledge would be limited as long as humans were bound to the linear, i.e. ‘space-time,’ conception of space. He implies that multidimensional spacial knowledge is required to facilitate a notation capable of representing infinite complex classifications. The highlighted function is my simple attempt to illustrate how such a level of understanding can be achieved without attaching additional elements.

So take a long hard look.

It takes a terrifically bad sore throat to send me home, and keep me home for long enough that I get bored relaxing. I’m also hard at work on my MFA Thesis; it will contain multiple references to Star Wars and Star Trek, and likens Donald Judd to a rocket engineer,

Print Stint

I’ve been drawing shapes and making goofy prints of them. Last week I had a small show at school, and some of these new prints were in it. Then, I rehung the show the night before I took it down, and only put up the new prints. These are some anomalous pieces from the show that no one saw.

In the studio with some prints and tests.

I’m getting read for a show in one of the school galleries next week. The prints on the right are material tests, and the ones on the left are messy up close. I can’t quite get it right.
