Some work by local artist Lucy Irvine.
She explores biomimetic organic forms using inorganic and industrial materials such as fishing line, nylon cord and cable ties.

Thought this was a rather interesting article.

Like a white swan landing on the reflective lake at just the right moment, this exhibition is coming. Following my earlier post, Extreme Textiles, I just stumbled across this post on the Design Boom blog
The site for this delicious looking exhibition is here: Tokyo fibre 09 Senseware
It’s pure magic. check it out.
I especially like the filter mask moulded into a monkey’s nose/mouth.
Interesting how white almost everything in the exhibition is. This is a common property given to newness: as if new forms/ideas await colouring in…. still clean and …

Living With the Tudors (watch the trailer at this link) is something like the inverse of where we’re heading: living out of time, just forward rather than backward.
This is our challenge.

There is this online gallery that combines that the art and science of the brain into visually interesting images.
