A quick introduction to Dorothy Cross.

A quick introduction to Dorothy Cross.

by Daniela Ortiz

Dorothy Cross was born in Cork, Ireland. Most of her work 

is a mixture of media , photography, sculptures and videos. 

Dorothy came to the public attention in the 90s with her 

nature sculptures and installations. But she is best known 

for her public installation "The Ghost Ship". In her 

presentation she mainly talks about her exhibition "Sapiens"

which is in Dublin, Ireland. Her work is inspired by her visit 

to Melanin Island of New Ireland in the South Pacific. 

Where she spent time in the remote villages on the west coast
of the island, interacting with the shark callers. In her 

presentation she explains that her art comes from the nature 

of humans and animals. She uses objects that are used by 

humans and reassembles them using nature (animals) so 

that the meaning of her pieces is more visible to her audience.
Some of the most interesting objects she uses are dead 

animals, skulls and broken down objects from everyday life. 

She also explains that she could never be a painter , that 

her passion is using things that already exist to maker her on work.
She is fascinated by the history of the object that she finds.

Her photography is very interesting because she finds interest 

in the nature of animals interacting with humans.
She goes around the world taking pictures of unexpected things.

Over all her exhibitions have to be seen completely to understand 

what she id trying to portray.

Design \ Media art Free Flow Lecture with Drew Schnurr

Here is introduction of artist. Drew Schnurr studied music at Western Michigan University and the University of Southern California. Over the past eight years his composition work has been performed in select national venues, while his scoring and sound design work has been featured on various television networks. Drew Schnurr is acclaimed as an innovative solo performer playing traditional stringed instruments mixed with fascinating electronic sounds in live improvisation. His current work is focused on the development of serious new performance forms, while fostering personal and interpersonal connectedness through creativity.
I always want to make website that has great sound. I also always looking for sound that I want to use into website. Before I saw his lecture I have never though about creating sound. This lecture is amazing. He creates various sounds. I realized that sound is really important in design. Sound can make totally different environment. For example, if you watch horror movie with out sound it does not scare anymore. I thing sound can control people’s emotion. He use diverse of instruments and make great sound. Every single sound mixed up really well and became a great sound. It does not mess up at all. I can feel that what he wants to express. After saw his lecture I became a person who wants to learn about sound. I suggest that try to touch his artwork. You will be surprising.

Inga Vasiljeva's presentation essay

“The concept of Softspace”

The architecture is sort of a picture book that tells us unique stories about societies that existed long before our time. It also gives us perspective, in which direction the society is headed now. In other words, the physical presence of architecture “has helped us to define society for centuries”.

For instance, all buildings around us were built using some type of solid material, a concrete, or glass, etc. Most architectural structures have walls, windows, doors and a roof. In more scientific terms description above is referred to as “tectonics” - the science or practice of building construction.

But not every form is built using visible resources. Unique structures can be formed using intangible physical resources, such as: heat, sound waves, and electromagnetic fields. This new design trend is referred to as “Softspace”.

Softspace designers use new spatial systems including wearable computing, wifi, RFID­ –(Radio-frequency identification) and custom-designed digital software incorporating light, heat, sound and electromagnetic fields. Softspace design projects are usually highly interactive and require user input. Moreover, the appearance of the structure may constantly change based on he level user interactivity. Source : (http://www.tate.org.uk/onlineevents/webcasts/softspace_architecture/default.jsp

To be able to describe the Softspace concept visually, I have selected samples of softspace installations by the architect, Usman Hague. (Source: http://www.haque.co.uk/burblelondon.php). In my opinion, the most impressive projects of softspace design by Usman Hague are: THE BURBLE (video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqH61pIPXlQ), photographs and additional information about project can be found at(http://www.haque.co.uk/burblelondon.php), and the project EVOKE, video link found at (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZooZYrs28CE&eurl=http://www.haque.co.uk/evoke.php ), project description and images found at (http://www.haque.co.uk/evoke.php). Video lecture/interview with Usman Hague is available at: (http://www.tate.org.uk/onlineevents/webcasts/softspace_architecture/default.jsp

Pervasive Animation
I checked out the Tate Museum website and found a lot of interesting material in their archives. I watched some streaming video from an international conference called Pervasive Animation that was broadcast over the web live starting on March 4, 2007. The conference lasted three days and had all of the discussions archived for viewing on the website.
I watched a lot of different talks which were very informative on the subject of “animation” and the fact that animation is turning up all over the place now in many other mediums beside just film such as theater, dance, music, music video, television, computers, fine arts, painting, sculpture, art installations, architecture, science, medicine as well as in both commercial, non-commercial and artistic venues.
There were discussions about the need for a “new field” of study the speakers were calling “animation studies”. In other words the field of animation is now so large because of internet and digital advances and the ability of animation to be used in so many different areas that it now needs to be studied as its own art form.
The speakers were expressing concern that animation has an “unlimited potential to visually represent events that have little relation to our experience of the ‘real’ world and more and more influencing our perception and experience of the world we live in.”
The speakers came from a wide range of areas including both research and creative practices and felt that a much needed ongoing dialogue was needed to keep tabs on animation’s “potentially radical future development, and its ethical responsibilities for spatial politics in a moving image culture.”
The conference's contributors include Norman Klein, Michael Snow, Vivian Sobchack, Tom Gunning, Anthony McCall, George Griffin, Suzanne Buchan, Beatriz Colomina, Edwin Carels, Siegfried Zielinski, Lisa Cartwright, Johnny Hardstaff and Esther Leslie.
The opening panel discussion was followed by a presentation of Anthony McCall's celebrated 1973 'solid light' film event, Line Describing a Cone, which was not available to watch.

an I love shoes site sounds nice too.

a club scene site, I feel as though they've been done.

Since we are all Harold Washington students, I think a "what to eat around campus" thing would be nice.
