Magnetic Sphere (audio by Karri O.) from flight404 on Vimeo.
the new itunes visualizer, made by robert hodgin of flight404.com and processing scripting whiz fame, is probably one of the top 5 artworks i've seen this year, i spent about an hour and a half the other day watching it rererererererereregenerate ... four tet records seem to work extra good with it..
anyway, today i learned about some secret shortcuts
- + and -: Increase or decrease the intensity (brightness) of the particles; multiple presses further increase or decrease the intensity.
- A and S: Add or Subtract particles to the visualizer. You can make the visualizer as complex (or sparse) as you wish.
- R: Reset the intensity and particle count to their default values.
- E: When in nebula mode (press N), this greatly accentuates the nebula clouds, making them very easy to see. (If you’ve used the M key to change modes, you may find that the nebula clouds aren’t visible; it seems they’re only used in certain modes.)

Steve Jobs tells 3 stories from his life.
He talks about the value of following his curiosity and intuition, and how taking a non-required calligraphy class gave him an appreciation for typefaces that played a large roll in his design of Apple computers.
"Trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future... because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart even when it leads you off the well worn path."

Metaphor For Many An Artist... skip to 2 minutes
Skip ahead to the 2 minute mark. this is exactly the metaphor i've been thinking of when pondering artists who learn a few tools but have nothing to say. does standing in front of a crowd with a suit and a microphone make one a lecturer? does learning the Adobe Creative Suite or Final Cut Pro make one an artist?
You get it boy! Get it!
How do you get an effective message across to millions who don't pay attention?

hello fellow bloggers,
i was just perusing http://draft.blogger.com/ and there is this nice new tool to export and import blogs now..
this could fix one of the regrets i had with this blog, which is that we should have continued http://agsyte.blogspot.com/ so all 200 of those posts of that blog plus the 500 of this one would be in one magical location.. we also have the ability to change names and urls of the blog through blogger... so we could do that too... i'm quite fond of that name 'the athens georgia society for youtube enjoyment'... but have a special place in my heart for this one too..
grapple!

OK TO GO from universe on Vimeo.
"Chain of Hyper Space scenes from films.
Collaboration with Mike Merrill.
Part of the thing which is so appealing about Hyper Space scenes in films is the idea that something fantastic and unknown lies at the end of them. In fact, here are the primary uses of Warp Speed/ Hyper Space as plot device:
A) Tunnel to unknown.
B) Escape from danger via total oblivion.
Both represent a kind of inversion, or temporary lifting, of the accepted order. Other salient points:
1. Endless Journey
2. Forward Motion
3. Betrays our naive dreams about the domestication of space and of the unknown.
4. Pseudoscience.
5. Total Solitude.
6. Isolated from context, these scenes are not immediately discernible as being either inner or outer space. Inherently, travel through "Space" is a universal mental image."

Arts Education- Brahms Breakfast
[ Written by "adcouncil": ]
An impressive 89% of Americans believe that the arts are important enough to be taught in schools, and that it fulfills an important role in a well-rounded education. And they are right; studies show far-reaching benefits of an arts education:
• The arts teach kids to be more tolerant and open.
• The arts allow kids to express themselves creatively.
• The arts promote individuality, bolster self-confidence, and improve overall academic performance.
• The arts can help troubled youth, providing an alternative to delinquent behavior and truancy while providing an improved attitude towards school.
Unfortunately, the truth is that the average kid spends more time at their locker than in arts classes. This PSA campaign was created to increase involvement in championing arts education both in and out of school. Parents and other concerned citizens are encouraged to visit www.AmericansForTheArts.org to find out how to take action on the behalf of the arts and arts education. The campaign stresses that some art is not enough and reinforces with the tagline: Art. Ask for More.
