unentitled

Welcome. Here you will find the happenings in my life and art, along with things I find influential. I currently ended my studies at The Pottery Workshop in Jingdezhen, CN. I am now back in the States finishing out my undergrad. Follow along on my journey. Please be considerate. Do not remove credit from any post that leaves this page.

AxiDraw V3

New version of precise plotter drawing machine from Evil Mad Scientist which can draw with almost any pen and with very high precision:

This new AxiDraw has been redesigned from the ground up for high performance. It features smooth rolling wheels on custom aluminum extrusions, specially designed for high stiffness and light weight. Its sturdy, rigid construction gives it finer quality output and in most applications allows it to operate at up to twice the speed of the previous AxiDraw, which it replaces. 

As with the previous version, AxiDraw is a simple, modern, precise, and versatile pen plotter, capable of writing or drawing on almost any flat surface. It can write with fountain pens, permanent markers, and other writing implements to handle an endless variety of applications. Its unique design features a writing head that extends beyond the body of the machine, making it possible to draw on objects bigger than the machine itself.

The tool has been a big creative tool hit this year - here is a video by Hansje van Halem demonstrating various visual graphic design examples that can be produced with the machine:

Study of Shape and From | Daniele De Batte

Letting spectators in on your process of design is not a common thing to do. But we are lucky that Genoa-based artist Daniele de Batté invites us to do just that. Daniele is a graphic designer and co-founder of studio Artiva. But his work for Artiva is based on a beautiful study of shapes and forms. And this curious investigation of his creates art that in itself should not go unseen. Additionally, it is not despite that fact that he himself considers his drawings, painting and sculptures primarily as notes of a creative process, but because of that.

Daniele works with modules, he explores the relation between objects or shapes and empty space, white space. This results in a harmonic repetition of carefully considered patterns which create a rhythm of order and chaos, a tension emitting energy. The shapes in space or on paper are free of colour, contrasting in black and white or harmoniously shining in monochrome installations. And that’s where knowing about his work-in-progress-approach changes the point of view of the spectator.

Knowing that the rigid patterns and forms of Daniele’s creation are not meant to record a final state, but are always a starting point for a new elaboration, adds a layer of fluidity and playfulness as well as craftsmanship, which makes his work approachable and gives it a musical vibrance.
