Dead Drops

Tue, 02 Nov 2010 06:03:17 -0400

“Dead drops” is one seriously cool project by Aram Bartholl.

It’s an anonymous, offline, peer to peer file-sharing network in public space. Aram places USB flash drives into walls, accessable to anybody in public space. Just plug your laptop to a wall, house or pole to share your favorite files and data. Each dead drop contains a readme.txt file explaining the project.

Summertime

The sun is high and it’s getting hotter outside. Others would go swimming or sit on outside a bar, but this weather makes me want to buy a old Triumph bike or better yet a Falcon and hit the road. Fuck yeah…

Sten & Lex

Sten & Lex developed this technique to make Poster Stencil art. First they make the stencils and paste them on a panel of wood as a poster. Then they paint the whole board black, when it’s dry they remove the stencil but leave some parts on the board. In the end the stencil is destroyed and becomes part of the poster.

Tritone

Wed, 31 Mar 2010 07:21:00 -0400

Both songs above contain tritones in prominent places: Black Sabbath uses them to create the main riff and Camille Saint-Saëns uses it in the violin solo.

The tritone is a musical interval that spans three whole tones. The tritone, sometimes known as the “Diabolus in Musica” or “The Devils Interval”, is the same as an augmented fourth, which is the equivalent to a diminished fifth.

Céleste Boursier-Mougenot, a french artist, created this installation for The Curve. It’s a walk-though aviary for a flock of zebra finches, furnished with electric guitars and other musical instruments.

As the birds go about their routine activities, perching on or feeding from the various pieces of equipment, they create a captivating, live soundscape.

For fans of Earth, Neil Young’s Dead Man. ;)

Fascinating.
