The Beauty of the Bead - by Annette Labedzki

absolutearts.com Portfolio I’ve always wondered why I love beads so much. I' m not from African descent, there is no history of beadwork In my family; so why do I have this fascination and obsession with beads? I have a large collection of beads, including vintage, wood, and glass, plastic and shell beads. Well, the most obvious reason is that beads in themselves are a work of art. Each one has its own story to tell and its own beauty. Beads have the ability to transform a utilitarian object ...

Shanoff's Wake-Up Call: Manny Heads West

Today's Calls: Manny Ramirez vs. Jason Bay, Ron Gardenhire vs. Ozzie Guillen, Brandon Webb vs. Anibal Sanchez, Brett Favre vs. Jeff Garcia, Georgia vs. USC-Ohio State winner, Ron-Ron vs. Yao and More. The Opening Pitch: Manny in L.A.? It's like a terrible sitcom spin-off, "Joey" to the Red Sox's "Friends." But it certainly shakes things up: While other top NL contenders like the Cubs and Brewers went for topline pitchers, the Dodgers acquired one of the best hitters of this generation. Best of a...

Rob Zombie Pretends More High School Notebook Drawings are 'Concept Art'

OK, Rob Zombie, we get it. Tyrannosaurus Rex will completely follow the aesthetic of a troubled 15-year-old's margin doodles from his high school notebooks. You can cancel the poster where a barbarian cuts through the Megadeth logo. And the one where it sort of looks like someone threw ninja stars into the lined paper. And the one where a savage woman's boobs are scribbled out, because that's where you messed up. We get it. Thanks, Brad. Tyrannosaurus Rex Art Show Continues [Shock Till You Drop...

Richard Pare, Russian Avant-Garde Architecture, and the Melnikov House

Every year or so I look for an excuse to blog about Konstantin Melnikov's architectural masterpiece, his own home. This year's excuse is that house now has it's own website: Melnivkov House and that Melnikov's wikipedia page has been considerably beefed up with many good links including one to the Russian Avant-garde Heritage Preservation Foundation (which led me to the excellent Russian Utopia Depository of Paper Architecture). This web meander started because I was looking at Richard Pare's w...

Scientists Make First Paper-Based Transistor [Transistors]

A team at Universidade Nova de Lisboa in Portugal have produced the world's first field-effect transistor based on paper. The paper layer acts as an "interstrate", with the actual FET components being fabricated onto both sides: so the paper holds the transistor together and acts as an insulator. Amazingly in tests the paper transistor performed better than amorphous silicon transistors and even approaches the performance of state-of-the-art oxide thin-film transistors. Why is this interesting ...

Grass art - Photographic photosynthesis

Grass art - Photographic photosynthesis by Heather Ackroyd and Dan Harvey via NOTCOT. The artists essentially use grass as a form of photographic paper, projecting a black-and-white negative image onto a patch of grass as it grows in a dark room, and using the natural photosensitive properties of the grass to reproduce photographs... When grass gets plenty of sunlight, it produces chlorophyll and therefore turns green – but the less light it receives, the more yellow the colour is,” explain...

Experience into Art: Robert Rauschenberg's The Lotus Series at Blue Sky Gallery

Robert Rauschenberg Lotus V, 2008 Pigmented Ink-jet and hand painted photo-gravure on Somerset velvet 45.75 in. x 60 in. x 1.75 in. Print Edition by ULAE Rauschenberg was a great photographer. The first works he sold to the Museum of Modern Art in New York were photographs. The surprising thing is that even though he could capture whatever he wanted in front of a camera, it was never enough. Perhaps it was not real enough because the life and energy that would swirl around him seemed much riche...
