Art School Confidential. Class review / critique gone wrong.

________________
If you’ve studied art or writing at college, this will seem familiar. The artist ‘explaining’ the piece, and then her classmates offering ‘helpful’ comments in the most irritating, passive-aggressive way possible. The money shot at the end isn’t even my favorite part. It’s every second leading up to it.

Rule 1: Never explain
Rule 2: Listen, on the off-chance that someone critiquing your work might have something useful to contribute, as wildly unlikely as that may be
Rule 3: Never react. Just let their dumb words sit in the air like a bad smell

This is the best advice to come out of this video so far.

meganwest:

“I think a lot about what makes a strong female character. You know, movies and TV shows, these things have influence, my own website. So I think the question of “What makes a strong female character?”, often goes misinterpreted. And instead we get these two-dimensional superwomen, who maybe have one quality that’s played up a lot. Like, you know, a Catwoman type, or she plays her sexuality up a lot and it’s seen as power. But they’re not strong characters who happen to be female, they’re completely flat and they’re basically cardboard characters.
The problem with this is that then people expect women to be that easy to understand, and women are mad at themselves for not being that simple. When in actuality, women are complicated. Women are multifaceted. Not because women are crazy, but because people are crazy. And women happen to be people!”

The Amazing Underwater Forest of Lake Kaindy

What makes Lake Kaindy truly remarkable is that it contains an underwater forest. Visible on the lakes surface are the tall, dried-out tops of submerged Spruce trees that rise above the water’s surface like the masts of sunken ships. They are the only sign of the amazing frozen forest below the water’s surface.

The water is so cold (even in summer the temperature does not exceed 6 degrees) that the pine needles remain on the trees, even after a hundred years of being submerged. During the winter, the lake freezes and becomes a popular spot for ice diving.

The lake is 400 meters long and is located in Kazakhstan’s portion of the Tian Shan Mountains, about 129 km from the city of Almaty. The lake was created after an earthquake in 1911 triggered a large landslide blocking the gorge and forming a natural dam.

Artwork by Jen Stark

Jen Stark, whose kaleidoscopic paper sculptures we introduced in Hi-Fructose Vol. 20, has been busy creating a new body of work for her first Los Angeles solo show, “To the Power Of,” which debuts at Martha Otero Gallery on September 28, 2012.

Equally interested in mathematics as she is in spirituality, Stark explores the harmonious rhythms that govern the universe as demonstrated by sacred religious symbols and equations alike. Unlike any natural phenomenon that can be observed by the naked human eye, her psychedelic works visualize intersections of time and space that the mind is hard-pressed to comprehend. Take a look at some exclusive shots from Jen Stark’s studio, as well as some of the finished pieces in the show.

slavin:

Kenyatta was telling me about his cousin DJ Cheese today. For reasons too long to explain, it recalled Kid Koala’s “Moon River” and the chills it gives me every fucking time.

And yes, it’s worth sitting through a :30 to listen a song. This one, anyway.

“There is much of Silicon Valley that warrants criticism: the mono-culture now threatening San Francisco’s storied diversity and general weirdness; the anonymous office park sprawl of its built spaces; the male-dominated engineering culture; its assumption that all disruptions are good ones by definition; its casual scorn for older institutions.”

You know, I never imagined how hard it would be to run a blog based off an obscure alien animal from a single Star Trek episode. Because of this I think I am going to start writing unicorn dog fanfiction.

Here’s my Junior Thesis! Our theme was “Kings and Queens,” and although the individual we chose did not need to be an actual monarch, we were not permitted to choose anyone fictional. The paramaters of the project dictated that it be 1) biographical and 2) span from early life to death. I chose John Lennon as my subject (King of Rock, I suppose). PRINTS HERE!

I frikkin love Amanda’s stuff.
