Net by design collective Numen consists of multiple layers of flexible nets suspended in the air. The flat layers of the net are subsequently connected to one another on counterpoints thus forming a “floating landscape” open for visitors to climb in and explore. The result is an op-art social sculpture (or a community hammock) relating to topics of instability, levitation and regression.

(POP)culture by Garth Britzman

This project reused recycled soda bottles as a canopy under which a small park is created. An intriguing environment is created where one can explore the surface qualities of the bottles at eye level. Additionally, this project sought to stimulate creative alternatives for recycling and reusing materials.

Sean McGinnis

Working freelance at the dynamic and creative Casey Vidalenc Fashion House in Paris, he discovered string as a creative material, first sewing on clothes, then sewing on his own drawn and photographic work. The strings ended-up flying off the support and began filling rooms. And there, miles and miles of string and hours of labor going up and down ladders later, they form spheres, cones, intersecting wing shapes, or gothic arches, layers upon layers like three dimensional architectural drawings. In mind-boggling intricacy, the straight lines of taut strings sculpt floating forms. The thread is thin enough to not be easily seen, but the mass of repeated lines, though weightless and ephemeral, creates form. The effect is heightened by moving around the various forms, letting their myriad of lines cross and recross in never repeating patterns.

A Heavy + PublicAdCampaign collaboration, Re*public is an experimental mobile device application that digitally resurfaces, or “skins” physical buildings in urban centers by overlaying 3D content onto the physical environment. Creatively harnessing augmented reality (AR) technology, re*public turns architecture into locations for meaningful cultural exchange and, in doing so, provides the user with a new way of seeing public space as a more open and democratic media environment. Art provided by MOMO and 3D models by Ean Mering.

Experimentos caseros para hacer un mundo mejor

Sacar partido de los vacíos legales para con ello hacer algo más es todo un reto. Aquí, Natalie Jeremijenko, en una de sus propuestas para la “Environmental Health Clinic” (algo así como una clínica de recetas de mejora medioambiental), piensa que, si no se puede aparcar junto a las bocas de incendios, pueden conventirse en un espacio ideal para instalar un pequeño jardín que reduzca la acumulación de agua y polución, disminuyendo a su vez la necesidad de fumigar frente a determinadas enfermedades causadas por aquellas.

Puede que el problema no se solucione con un sólo jardín, pero ¿y creando una red?

Para saber más: aRRsa.org: ‘acciones relativamente pequeñas que, agregadas, pueden resolver estos problemas’.

This is a replica Geissler tube.

I don’t know what it does, but here’s an excerpt from the label at the Science Museum where I took the photos.

The two tubes here create spectacular effects of electricity in a near vacuum. Geissler not only managed to evacuate and seal off the tubes without contamination, but made use of the coloured effects of different gases, flourescent liquids and uranium glass. Unfortunately the originals are slightly radioactive because of the uranium glass so cannot be displayed.

Multiple shadow house, Olafur Eliasson (2010)

A simple, purpose-built structure, the work Multiple shadow house consists of multicolored lamps in rows shining onto several large projection screens. When a body enters the space and begins to interact with this light installation beautiful and subtle overlaid visions of their shadow fan across the screens – as they move around forward and backward the image is thus altered and can be manipulated. In this way the project is a creative collaboration between the artist, viewer, space and technology. via
