Saturday, August 30, 2014. Particle Detectors Subatomic Bomb Squad. Dr Don Lincoln explains how bomb detection methods are similar to how physicists hunt for particles after proton collisions at the LHC. This film is really funny and educational. Very entertaining!

Art First, Science Second: Riparian Zone Transitions From Sketches to Textiles

Sunday, April 27, 2014. Riparian Zone Transitions From Sketches to Textiles. Every morning, I enter the studio with a pot of coffee and write in my studio log what I'm going to work on that day. It is very rare for me to skip a day in the studio. Even if I can only work for a hour, I record the day's activities. Today I was thinking about transitioning my Riparian Zone. Project from paper to textiles. You can see more work HERE. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Riparian Zone Art Project. Every morning...

The sketch is of explosive canon balls so I wanted to use materials in complete opposition to this. The above sketch is bead work on transparent organza. I had to plan the embroidery carefully as the back side shows through to the front side. This one uses silk fibers, bamboo rods and beads. Samples on the s...

Tuesday, June 10, 2014. Detail, Riparian Zone Textile #1. Seed beads, embroidery, silver thread on dyed linen. For the past 6 weeks, I have been working away on the series "The Riparian Zone". I just submitted the work for a show at the Water Street Studio. And was forced to think about my process. The task for me was to work my way backwards in order to tell a coherent narrative about how the work was created. You can see more drawings here. After creating more than 25 horizontal watercolor and ink draw...

Wednesday, December 14, 2016. Contaminated Drinking Water in Rural Areas. Small drinking water utilities do not have to abide by the same safety regulations as large drinking water plants and as a result, rural water often remains contaminated.
