visited streetlab show off #6 last friday. Made this image there, although it is a warholic distortion by my perception.

Bas Louter, octagon

The huge black & white charcoal images in this installation were arranged as a 3D labyrinth. I appreciate this "sgt Peppers lonely hearts club" transwarped to our cyber era.
 




 




Folkert Joore, no title

A blend of context and ready available construction material.

destroy this mad brute

Made this image at "Gerrit Rietveld in de Kerk", an exposition of work by students of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie. I attended the opening which was very busy, so I'm not sure who's work of art I photographed, according to the catalog this is "Destroy this mad brute" from Sam Yazdanpanah. Correct me if this is wrong. Anyway I like the way the lady in the foreground integrates into the image.

moar4

the folks from Moar4 designed a new way to disguise their TARDIS device.
Now it blends in with the other relics of trashtology gaining popularity in Amsterdam.
  

mediamatic ikebana sproutpower

it rained last night when I left Horse Move. So I walked into the Mediamatic space also located at the Oosterdokskade. At Mediamatic was the “Freestyle ikebana competition for absolute beginners” in full scale action. Well I'm even less than an absolute beginner, today I had to wikipedia the word ikebana. Anyway I was able to make this freestyle sproutpower image there.

Daniel Hofstede & Benjamin Roth @ Horse Move

Benjamin Roth, “Grip: Om in een ogenschijnlijk rationeel denken en werken deze schijn te bevestigen, dient elke gekozen handeling klein of groot risico te dragen.”

Daniel Hofstede, “draagt op geen enkele wijze bij aan de kunstgeschiedenis.”

looking up

i like to stress the limits of my camera. In low light conditions I crank up the ISO value of the image sensor to the highest level. The diaphragm opening is kept as small as possible in combination with a shutter speed that allows me to shoot without a tripod. The initial result is an almost black image. Next the image is processed in Photoshop. By raising the output levels the image is revealed, including the noise generated by the image sensor chip. Of course this only makes sense if the noise in the image has a function like adding to the atmosphere of the image.

Anyway I have to say that my new Nikon D80 generates a filtered type of noise (pink noise) while my old Nikon generates a more random noise pattern. So yeah maybe I'll bring my old Nikon next time.

krause

Krause the electro punk vamp. Dec 23 last year @ P/////akt-Plug-In. Yeah I know I'm lagging with my posts.

Krause gave an impressive performance. Voice plus a growling Korg MS10 analog synthesizer plus a distorted guitar plus sunshades and high heels. All this built on a solid foundation of driving electro beat.
