Having now finished this book, I feel super accomplished.
Anywhome, I love how this section opens up about talking about responsive environments. I love the advice this section has to offer such as:
"Participants should be aware of how the environment is responding to them"
"In order to focus on the relationships between the environment and the participants, rather than among participants, only a small number of people should be involved at a time"
It just explains the complications with new interactive environments and responsive environments, how one can control it and how one can alter it also.
On page 259 Laurel mentions the six elements and the casual relations among them.
Action: Representations are normally thought of as having objects
Character: object bundles of traits, predispositions,
Thought: emotion cognition reason intention
Language: expression voice
Pattern: melody music
Enchantment : spectacle performance basic understanding
Though, they present these in a drama or theatrical sense, they can really be used for just about anything. Just gotta alter them a little bit to fit the subject.
As well all know, this new technology offers new challenges and new experiences especially for us college students. We are learning this technology now, but what technology will be readily available right after we graduate college. WHO KNOWS! It's ever changing for all the reasons stated the last eleven weeks on my life

This reading made me think of more than just what the book was trying to tell us. SO it talks about Radio and Satellite and Art blah blah blah we get that.
BUT my thought, is the radio still actually free???!!! Is it really the only source of FREENESS for entertainment anymore? Is it free? Do you pay money to listen to the radio?
No, maybe not pay money to listen to the radio. but is it free?
No, it is not free!! I came to the conclusion the radio is not free! You have to buy a car to listen to your radio, and a battery and an alternator to listen to your radio.
Oh, you don't have a car? You need to go and BUY a stereo, to also be plugged into your TV and your stereo and your surround sound system.
Oh wait, you want something more versatile and can go with you?
Go buy a $200+ Cell phone! You can download any FREE app to listen to the FREE radio after you buy your $200+ device.
BUT then you are still buying the data to listen to the radio, you still gotta buy the car, or the antenna or the phone, or the electricity!!
So, question is, is the radio actually free?

"MY EXPERIMENTAL TV IS NOT ALWAYS INTERESTING
BUT
NOT ALWAYS UNINTERESTING
LIKE NATURE, WHICH IS
BEAUTIFUL
NOT BECAUSE IT CHANGES,
BEAUTIFULLY
BUT SIMPLY BECAUSE IT
CHANGES"
This spoke to me greater than anything else in this section. For one, is because it's a generalization that any one could possibly make. But for too, is because it speaks the truth. I am an old soul and a tv would bore me to death anyway! Let's go outside, it changes MORE and stays interesting no matter where you go. It changes scenery, view, temperature, places. Unlike a TV cannot do that. An experimental nature? HAHAH!! Nature is only under experimentation because of the human kind... we are experimenting with the earth and it cannot replace itself. It changes for itself, and it changes for us we don't change it, it changes us.

Movies & Film
The evolution of film and video has evolved so greatly that people in this day in age can do it off of our ever so cheaply made cell phone. In the 50's and 60's someone was spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on equipment to do something "different". Then, it was a very expensive hobby only to see how it became easily done.
The transformation from the 50's films of the skunk in black and white and out tuned audio to our ever so perfect video's that create an augmented reality.
I love the old fashioned movies, only to see and know how simple it really looks to know how simple it was not. I find it very cray how fast technology has grown over 50 years, the fastest growing thing ever.
It went from "We can finally do this!!! to " This can be done this way" to " What else can we add?" to "How can we enhance this to get more viewers" to " All the families in the US have VHS! Yeah!" to "Oh, you got your VHS? Now go get a DVD" to " Nope, your DVD does not play in this blu-ray player" to just simply trying to create the way it can be done.

First, I find it weird that my book changed the texture of the pages starting at this section. But I also realized that the rest of the book contains no pictures. haha. So odd.
Anywhom!
in the 1920's Naum Gabo & Anton Pevsner | The Realistic Manifesto |
First, Peter can you please elaborate what the "Great Style" was in the 20's, like I have a pretty good idea but I haven't heard about it in a long time!
I am going to answer the question "Does it supposed that the new life can accept a new creation which is constructed on the foundations of the old?"
Yes, definitely new life can accept a new creation that is constructed from the new! That's what makes it new, people do it all the time. WE do it all the time, it's what we know its how we construct new art is to modify into the "new" cultural "norms" it is a crazy concept to grasp, but that's what every company does from car models to shampoo.
1928 Laszlo Moholy-nagy | The New Vision |
What I understood is that the new vision became the realization of kinetic sculpture. MY FAVORITE!!!!
In Sculpture: Mass to Motion
Painting: Coloured Pigment to light
Music: Instrumental tones to electronic purity
Poetry: Syntax to grammar
Architecture: Restricted closed spaces to free fluctuations of forces
1946 Asociacion Arte Concreto-invecion || Inventionist Manifesto |||
Here, is when the man becomes less sensitive to illusory images. He is becoming progressively more integrated in the world!! (Hence the War)
The human spirit was dampened by the negativity of the war, so people moved to a more of a representational art versus abstract to stray away from his own power, to create an illusion of action.
Big time for art then.
Early art interests me majorly, it is simply amazing to see how art coincides with the times of the present and the culture around it. So, now today we have more digital art than hard copies of art, and that too can be a problem, how are we going to put today's art in history books? How can anyone get famous off of art when most of it is already been done, How do you get famous anymore without having 456415674+65156498 millions of dollars.
Yeah
Anywhom!

Yes Peter I did not read every single little picture caption. BUT I did look and observe every picture.
BUT! The one art piece that really caught my eye would be on page 186. "The Kitchen". At first, I looked at this and thought wow what a creepy eerie room. Then I looked at the title and that is what engaged me to read on further. The kitchen, does not look like a kitchen. It unfortunately looks like a cellar.
Though, I find is quite amazing that Steina and Woody Vasulka were the one of the first American to incorporate a non-profit institution to emergent the field of video, performance art, and a lieu of other fields.
While the book mentions that the kitchen is a dynamic art institution of past and present work. Today, this can show as blank. Also though, it shows the potential to change with the blankness of it.

First off, I had no idea what the world SIMULACRA meant. So I looked it up in the dictionary.
Simulacra:: image, representation <a reasonable simulacrum of reality — Martin Mayer>
Simulacra:: image, representation <a reasonable simulacrum of reality — Martin Mayer>
2
: an insubstantial form or semblance of something
Wonderful! I believe that this can be greatly explained by Char Davies interactive installation "Osmose". His installation allows the viewer to change the scene by the way that they breath. Deep breathes or or regular breaths. His piece is many many world spaces captured to create a forest scene. Each environment previewed by the interactee can be descended differently. This is definitely a mind altering piece and allows the viewer to get deeply involved. He even mentions that the viewer is slowly and gently brought back to reality.
But, after knowing what this word means. We as a class and students do this all the time to get ourselves through homework, or even in our art pieces. Because as every artists goal, is to create something that nobody has ever done before, but unfortunately our ideas just naturally evolve from someone else's idea.

"The Lines We Run"
Anywhom! The red is where we started, which is Grand Coulee, and our travels progresses as the colors progress through the rainbow. So Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue and Purple. And Everything else in between.
So since I based this off of Chad's and I's adventures, I thought it was very cute that Peter mentioned that it looked like a life line, or a heart beat. Super cute.

This section actually almost confused me more than anything.
I therefore, just read it carefully hoping I would grasp this.
First, I wanna start how badly I got scared looking at the picture on page 161.. Bahahah!
But, the part that did interest me during this section is the work b Seiko Mikami on page 157. I actually would of liked to participate in this "experiment" I guess you could call it.
This is very interesting, because I enjoy sitting in an actual peaceful environment, or room. To the point after a view minutes where you can hear yourself breath, hear your heart beat, I can sometimes feel like I can even feel myself think. But, the real time is what gets the body to be tricked, because we can hear the sounds that our bodies make ALL THE TIME.
"the ear is not merely a thing that hears: the eye is not merely a thing that sees"

This has by far had to be my favorite section yet.
Culture Jamming, I love looking at pictures from the 1920's - 1980's, These ones are especially interesting because the are the control behind my degree. I mean that in a sense to what Peter had discussed with us in class that we are why we are today because of who they were then.
Make sense? Maybe
In 1986, human interaction was a big deal, bigger than it is today....
On page 126, it shows White's "Telephonic Arm Wrestling"And this directly brought my attention because it's like arm wrestling with someone halfway around the world. Which, we can do today in a sense, but over the internet.
The perception of this piece those, with relativistic constraints is even more genius.
Hehe The Yes Man.... :) (Pg 133)
Now, when the US Department of Art & Technology announced about "Promoting media art, cultural growth, the artist voice in reshaping public policy and improved aesthetic standards for all Americans..." in 2001, they really did not know what was about to hit society media and art wise.

For this section, I particularly picked out one piece of art that stood out to me moreso than the rest.
On page 112; Catherine Richards created a piece "Curiosity Cabinet for the End of the Millennium"
1995
This is an especially interesting piece for being placed out of the 1995 (Mid 90's), mainly where the technology era started taking its loop.
Computer environments as Richards states, and blurring boundaries between body and machine. This is quite literal, and Sena Clara has actually brought to my attention that she only sees our foreheads because of the tall computers. She feels like she's just teaching to some foreheads, and our bodies are obsolete. She's talking to a bunch of apple mac computers with foreheads, that sounds silly but the unfortunate truth.
This box presents this in a greater sense that even the people who aren't aware are now aware. The mesh screen creates a blurred vision between our mind and body. To me the inside is our mind and the outside is out body.
This can be taken on many different perspectives. We feel safe and sound inside our mind, but the outside creates light and walls and you can see further and more beyond, but the trick is, is that this is a room inside a building. SO therefore the box is our mind, the room is our body and the whole building is the computer. Many compartments, many views, many meanings but all in one place.

TO be completely honest about this section, how does one even consider this art? Yeah, it can be considered an abstract form but it everything presented in this section is either pixelated or out of focus, or just straight up random.
Yes, I understand that there re different ways to make these images. AND I have taken into consideration that these pictures are also presented in video form which (I hope and recommend) is how they are usually presented to the public.
Though, something that we as students work with a lot. Computer-generated images.
On page 87, how Burson combined a bunch of celebrities faces together, if only six woman could make a baby together. (;
Compute generated is what this class is about, and here is a good composition to present to future artist interested in the computer generated images.
(Page 94) When Autoshop was actually a thing. HA. 1999 and earlier!
When the Assistant came to help you, or it was the clippy on microsoft word. Oh boy, and that was just 10 years ago!

Motion, Duration, and Illumination.
I absolutely love that we get to learn about this, but I really wish that we could be engaged in it! Just food for thought.
I was absolutely intrigued that this section mainly consisted of pictures, but that's more a Que to talk about them more. :)
Anyway, right straight off the bat I was interested in Naum Gabo's "Standing Wave" Kinetic Construct.
This immediate caught my eye cause well, Metal. AND that is exactly how it looks when you "twirl" a metal stick in the air or on the ground. Especially interesting for having a kinetic sculpture in such an early part of the technology age (talking the early 1900's)
Page 62 shows one of the most well-known kinetic sculptures. This sculpture is not only just a sculpture but a kinetic, cybernetic, robotic, constructive, responsive sculpture. Now that's amazing!!
"The Cysp" was/is a very well known piece of art by Nicolas Schoffer. This piece of art traveled the world, and became the first large exhibition of computer art in the United States. This piece of art is so popular I have seen it since elementary school and I now know what it does and what it has done. Cause, it said that it was responsive so therefore to find out how I looked it up on youtube and watched a few videos that showed about the piece.
Quite Interesting.

Fun in the Tri-Cities
I attended a few events this weekend! You indeed saw me at the Night with the Arts! Which, was a very intruiging event, I was very excited to see my piece in the student art section, as well as the food.
My fiancee and I wish that we had thousands of dollars to spend on the local art "vendors". I agree that the local vendors was a very nice touch to the event.
Also, I attended the Heritage Days out at Sacajawea State Park on Saturday. My favorite part was indeed the traditional Native American Dancing, the many people who are skilled at leather(s). (Added note: I am actually getting a personalized leather satchel, and I am super excited)! There was live birds, two hawks and two owls.
My favorite attraction at the Heritage Days was the old fashion "technology powered" wood cutter. It was oil and steam operated, and was on a whole assembly line just to saw a slice off of a log. My fiancee and I actually were fortunate enough to be able to take home two beautiful slabs of the ponderosa pine that was being cut, but are we are going to turn them into end tables for an outdoor patio.
The most fascinating thing that I learned that day is where "balls to the wall" came from!! When there was steam powered engines small to large, on the top of the regulator is these two red balls, and when the engine is still the balls are downward. when the engine is idling the balls are about mid way, and when that sucker is running at full speed, those balls are all the way to the top of regulator going round and round. Cause "Balls to the wall" means full blast, so therefore the "ball regulators" are at full blast! Pretty cool, huh?!
Thanks.

Yes, I know I am a little behind on these things. But I picked an excellent day to read this section!!
This section is mostly about Exhibitions, Institutions, Communities, and Collaborations - Hey Bam! We have all that right here on this campus today, with the Nights With The Arts (exhibition) tonight all of this community engagement is flowing with creativity all day long!!!
"Electronic Art often demands the formation of communities and institutions and frequently leads to the production of open-ended exchanges rather than concrete works"
This because, electronic art is SO SO SO SO easy to change around, it's not like a 3-D space or a hard copy. It's completely digital and by a touch of a button the whole piece can be changed. Versus organic materials such as metal, clay or wood which take time, practice, patience, and lots more details to change the piece in general.
It's quite an array.

I found these 15 pages pretty interesting actually, I love how it talked about history (the first artistic application of computer networking. Also as well as, video games and satellite broadcasting, and many many many more networks became widely available with the acceptance of culture.
This may be irrelevant, but! I love the fact that it mentions the book 1985 because Brother Bear has almost came to an exact truth.
Of course, when one technological tool becomes culturally accepted people go ape shit and take everything to the extreme. That is what this section mainly talks about. Because now Robots are introduced in the 1970's and today they have only expanded to more....
Painting = Media = Illusions = virtual = advanced.

A&EM Pages 15-30
The beginning of this section really caught my attention because it talks about movement within art pieces. I absolutely love kinetic pieces, and am actually working on one here on the campus....
Anywhom, it was really intriguing to know the detail behind how and why an artist made their piece move the way it does. Especially Marcel Duchamp (pg 18).
1967 Must have a been a great year for Pink Floyd, to finally realize that they can put their drug feelings into perspective for the rest of the rock culture to see. Psychedelics really hit the scene about then, and that was a great time to experiment with video performances to people whom were under the influence.
Now, the section that really caught my attention actually was the section about "Charged Environments".
- This is today's culture! Every artist demands acts of perception, or a reason. But sometimes there really isn't one.
J.A. Wheeler has a very good point " "To describe what has happened one has to cross out that old word "observer" and put inits places "participator" (pg28)
This has very very very strong meaning, because with the rise of digital arts the observer of a (painting) per say, has now become and interactive piece in a digital realm allowing the observer to participate in the exhibited piece.
There is no primary relation now to just one piece of art, because art ranges SSSSSSSOOOOO wide this world that the definition of ART changes in everyone's eyes.

Now, the section that really caught my attention actually was the section about "Charged Environments".
- This is today's culture! Every artist demands acts of perception, or a reason. But sometimes there really isn't one.
J.A. Wheeler has a very good point " "To describe what has happened one has to cross out that old word "observer" and put inits places "participator" (pg28)
This has very very very strong meaning, because with the rise of digital arts the observer of a (painting) per say, has now become and interactive piece in a digital realm allowing the observer to participate in the exhibited piece.
There is no primary relation now to just one piece of art, because art ranges SSSSSSSOOOOO wide this world that the definition of ART changes in everyone's eyes.

A&EM Pages 1-15
At first I thought this was funny, cause the pages have HUMUNGOUS words of them, and I totally thought that the whole book was going to be like that. But, no but that's okay.
Anywhom, the book opened up with a nice history lesson of how technological devices have become part of our "cultured" society.
The history of what came a bouts and when is definitely a nice reminder to the new start to the semester.
