Sprinkle Brigade





I've known and loved this artist group for so long, I'm not sure why they havnt appeared on my blog until now. The pictures speak for themselves, the group finds dog poop and decorates it.

David Rokeby "Shock Absorber" and "very nervouse system"

David Rokeby is a canadian artist who went to ocad for sculpture and instalation (like me ) He works a lot in electronics. Shock absorber pictured above is a video instalation where the camera obserbes a street and shows on one screen the movements and on the other screen the constants. The technology is when the camera shows the difference between 2 frames on one screen and whatevers the same on another. One thing that was observed is that when this was on the street, in one screen where all the working class, busilly hurrying of to work with their briefcases, and in the other screen where all the homeless people sittle on the sidewalk. Kind of an interesting social observance.


This video above is another work by him called nervous system. He has created a program wich plays music in acordance with his movements. kind of a reverse dancing. Interesting!

Golan Levin! real interactive art!



Golan Levin is an artist who writes computer programs exloring the ideas around art responding and
looking at the viewer. He really creates a powerful relatonship between the viewer and the art. he has
made works where the computer draws what you say, where the computer records the negative
space around you and converts it to positive space, one pieve where the computer records your
eyes looking at it. there are so many interesting works.

Bansky "village pet store and charcoal grill"







Bansky did his first ever show in Newyork and it's amazing!!! Chicken fingers pecking at the dipping sauce, swimming fishsticks! and it all moves!! an amazing instalation!

the Group of 7


Just to clear up any misunderstanding, this goes in the hate category. The one room at the Ago I hate going into, but I have to walk through to get anywhere else is the group of 7 room. They are painting landscapes void of any beauty of intensity to represent Canada. Paintings of Canada's wonderful wilderness in which no one even lives in or goes to see. These days people would much rather look at a calender picture by the group of 7 then go out on a hike.
