Class Presentatoin Notes
Class Presentation - Personal Interest Points
Electronic Art Notes:
Nam June - Fluxes - father of electronic art
Electronic art has many directions it can go with intersecting qualities providing infinite possibilities stemming from this one category of art (sound, visual, shadow, etc)
4'33" - a piece focused on the audience - brought attention to new media
New efforts were being made in new media experimentation
ISEA- traveling internationally - non-profit
Rain room - hydro electronic
Contemporary Animation:
2D - vector based - better for sub-par drawers
3D computer animation - you can move individual parts for each frame
Stop motion: clay model and paper, etc images played one after another
2D is less risky especially for advertisers. Less money, less work.
The industry is waiting to see if 4K catches on before they put out their money and
Weinstein- characters, personalities, and environments unique and story-telling
Weinstein is less commercially inspired
Commercialized animation is handing you to obey. Weinstein made this stuff out of his own creativity.
Der- Zoetroppe - 3D made from 2D
Sisman- 3D digital combining digital produced images with new forms
Shinkai- traditional 2D raster based - 2D animation in a more art context, although merging into commercial
Video Art:
Can be a video itself, or a picture made of moving pictures for example
How it is presented also plays a huge role, such as if something is arranged in an ironic way compared to what the screens themselves are showing
Vito Acconci- body art - would even bite/burn his body hair off
Matthew Barney - lots of imagery and historical video art - used sexual maturation as metaphor for developing art
William Kentridge - more like animation, filmed series of drawings and worked like animation
There is a lot of weird sound involved in what I've seen so far.
"Look at me, I'm a painting, but I'm talking to you."
Video Installation Art:
You just need electricity and darkness
LED screens
You can get different feelings and emotions, you can use pieces individually or combine them,
Interactive- your presence affects what you see
Using television as a piece of art - Paik
Interactive art has evolved to using apps
skip sweeney- illuminatin' - frequency feedback
Sound making visual and Visual making sound
Web Art:
Virtual Life
People tried to use Second Life to make art for themselves
Alexi Shulgen - one of the first pioneers of net art
- uses his computer voice to make songs and it is hilarious to me
Performance, digital, web art can all overlap to make something crazy unexpected
Agatha Appears: visually interactive
Heath Bunting: Do Something Different
- crossing borders and playing with the concept of the wall
Amalia is more of a modern day shocker. Superficial. None of its real and the public's into it.
Projection Mapping:
projectors with custom moving designs
very vector based
some are interactive, some are timed video
Seidel is really very abstract
projection onto 3D objects, paper, smoke, water sprays, etc
Supercorona- used cd cases
probably my favorite presentation thus far
Technology Art Ecology
Art+Ecology= how art can mesh with nature/art - to control, observe, or observe
BiodesignChallenge - art and design students get to compete - pushing boundaries and showcasing visions
Art can make a real and scientific difference
Biomodd: creating relationships between plants and tech
There are so many cool ways to do art and science together
Even using oranges to power LEDs

Images for Shad Mech Abed
Folklore Digital Topic
1. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego
Daniel 3New International Version (NIV)
The Image of Gold and the Blazing Furnace
3 King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, sixty cubits high and six cubits wide,[a]and set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon. 2 He then summoned the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates and all the other provincial officials to come to the dedication of the image he had set up. 3 So the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates and all the other provincial officials assembled for the dedication of the image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up, and they stood before it.
4 Then the herald loudly proclaimed, “Nations and peoples of every language, this is what you are commanded to do: 5 As soon as you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe and all kinds of music, you must fall down and worship the image of gold that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up. 6 Whoever does not fall down and worship will immediately be thrown into a blazing furnace.”
7 Therefore, as soon as they heard the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp and all kinds of music, all the nations and peoples of every language fell down and worshiped the image of gold that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up.
8 At this time some astrologers[b] came forward and denounced the Jews. 9 They said to King Nebuchadnezzar, “May the king live forever! 10 Your Majesty has issued a decreethat everyone who hears the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe and all kinds of music must fall down and worship the image of gold, 11 and that whoever does not fall down and worship will be thrown into a blazing furnace. 12 But there are some Jews whom you have set over the affairs of the province of Babylon—Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego—who pay no attention to you, Your Majesty. They neither serve your gods nor worship the image of gold you have set up.”
13 Furious with rage, Nebuchadnezzar summoned Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. So these men were brought before the king, 14 and Nebuchadnezzar said to them, “Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, that you do not serve my gods or worship the imageof gold I have set up? 15 Now when you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe and all kinds of music, if you are ready to fall down and worship the image I made, very good. But if you do not worship it, you will be thrown immediately into a blazing furnace. Then what god will be able to rescue you from my hand?”
16 Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, “King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. 17 If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us[c] from Your Majesty’s hand. 18 But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.”
19 Then Nebuchadnezzar was furious with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, and his attitude toward them changed. He ordered the furnace heated seven times hotter than usual 20 and commanded some of the strongest soldiers in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego and throw them into the blazing furnace. 21 So these men, wearing their robes, trousers, turbans and other clothes, were bound and thrown into the blazing furnace. 22 The king’s command was so urgent and the furnace so hot that the flames of the fire killed the soldiers who took up Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego,23 and these three men, firmly tied, fell into the blazing furnace.
24 Then King Nebuchadnezzar leaped to his feet in amazement and asked his advisers, “Weren’t there three men that we tied up and threw into the fire?”
They replied, “Certainly, Your Majesty.”
25 He said, “Look! I see four men walking around in the fire, unbound and unharmed, and the fourth looks like a son of the gods.”
26 Nebuchadnezzar then approached the opening of the blazing furnace and shouted, “Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, servants of the Most High God, come out! Come here!”
So Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego came out of the fire, 27 and the satraps, prefects, governors and royal advisers crowded around them. They saw that the fire had not harmed their bodies, nor was a hair of their heads singed; their robes were not scorched, and there was no smell of fire on them.
28 Then Nebuchadnezzar said, “Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who has sent his angel and rescued his servants! They trusted in him and defied the king’s command and were willing to give up their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God. 29 Therefore I decree that the people of any nation or language who say anything against the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego be cut into pieces and their houses be turned into piles of rubble, for no other god can save in this way.”
30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the province of Babylon.
