Another car exhibit in a Massachusetts
art museum 04/18/2005 02:34 AM

In an attempt to build up my skills in the Piper Arrow, an example of the "complex" airplane that must be used for an FAA flight instructor flight test, I went out to western Massachusetts on Saturday to MassMOCA, an electronic components factory converted to contemporary art museum.  The most arresting exhibit currently is by the explosion artist Cai Guo-Qiang.  He tricked out Ford Tauruses with fiber optics to simulate rockets and fireworks then hung them from the ceiling in one of MassMOCA's largest rooms.  This is well worth the trip to the North Adams airport (KAQW; surrounded by mountains and not suitable for IFR or night operations).  If you were bored by the car exhibit at Boston's Museum of Fine Arts you'll like this one.

Anti-Gmail Bill Now Allows Gmail

Anti-Gmail Bill Now Allows Gmail 05/26/2004 01:35 PM
Last month there was a lot of talk about the somewhat clueless move by a California politician to create a law that would ban Google's Gmail offering, despite the fact that it was completely optional to use. It appears that enough people (probably including those at Google itself) sat down with State Senator Liz Figueroa to explain how email works, and have convinced her to tone down the bill so that it now allows Gmail. That's right, the anti-Gmail bill now has loopholes that specifically allow Gmail. In other words, Senator Figueroa seems to have realized just how pointless the bill was in the first place and is trying to save face by adjusting it so that it still seems to have a purpose: banning a bunch of things that no one was doing, like having humans read the content of your emails to put in advertising.

What to do in LA: see NANO exhibit at
LACMA 12/26/2003 07:57 PM
Recently opened at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art: "nano," a cool art/science exhibit for geeks of all ages:

nano [is] an exhibition that merges the arts and the atom by presenting the world of nanoscience through a participatory aesthetic experience. The exhibition, a collaboration between LACMALab and a UCLA team of nanoscience, media arts, and humanities experts, is free to the public and runs through September 6, 2004 in LACMA's Boone Children's Gallery.

This groundbreaking project provides a greater understanding of how art, science, culture, and technology influence each other. The exhibition addresses sophisticated subject matter that is especially relevant for the next generation. Modular, experiential spaces using embedded computing technologies engage all of the senses to provoke a broader understanding of nanoscience and its cultural ramifications. The various components of nano are designed to immerse the visitor in the radical shifts of scale and sensory modes that characterize nanoscience, which works on the scale of a billionth of a meter. Participants can feel what it is like to manipulate atoms one by one and experience nano-scale structures by engaging in art-making activities.

Exhibit of quack imagery

Exhibit of quack imagery 03/31/2005 12:42 PM
David Pescovitz: Philadelphia Museum of Art has a new exhibit tracing the history of patent and quack medicine through posters, pamphlets, and prints:

These range from an early seventeenth-century Dutch engraving, Operation for Stones in the Head, a sleight-of-hand cure for insanity, to Medical Confessions of Medical Murder, a twelve-scene print in which James Morison, a clever marketer of pills, uses quotations from prominent physicians taken out of context to impugn their practices. The Health Jolting Chair, an 1885 color lithograph of a seated woman, demonstrates the ability of electricity to secure the "most highly prized Feminine Attractions"

Occult book exhibit

Occult book exhibit 06/02/2004 12:10 PM
Here's a stunning collection of rare occult books from the Monash University Library in Australia. From the 1998 exhibition ca talog:

"So great is the variety of 'occultisms,' that it is often difficult to find any connecting link between these traditions. The word is derived from the Latin, occullere, to cover over, to hide, or conceal, and all occult belief systems lay claim to some esoteric or hidden knowledge, but so too do many religions and mystical and philosophical systems, which are not defined as 'occult'. It is also clear - at least as far as those 'occult systems' with their own complex cosmologies are concerned - that what might be perceived by an outsider as "occultism", is to the practitioner quite possibly religion. This difference of perception serves to underline the only definite link that can clearly be demonstrated between these disparate 'occultisms': all were (or are) belief systems which existed (or exist) either on the margins of, or altogether outside, the mainstream religious or philosophical orthodoxies of the cultures in which they evolved."

Extreme Textiles article and exhibit

Extreme Textiles article and exhibit 04/12/2005 11:51 AM
David Pescovitz: Today's NYT has an article and nice online slide show about innovative new textiles, from electrically conductive rope to carbon fiber building materials. The article is pegged on a current exhibit at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum called Extreme Textiles: Designing for High Performance. Pictured here is polymer skin (photo by Cary Wolinsky/Aurora):

A process called electrospinning makes fibers out of an electrically charged solution containing dissolved polymers and sticks them onto an electrically charged surface. The fibers fall randomly but form a uniform layer, even on a three-dimensional surface. "It's sort of like spray-on Gore-Tex," said Dr. Heidi Schreuder-Gibson of the Army Natick Soldier Center. "It's very breathable, just like skin."
