Kinetic Wave Sculptures

I have been a big fan of make magazine for a while now. I love to build things, but what Reuben Margolin is building is just mind blowing. Check out these amazing kinetic wave sculptures. The one that is a water drop wave installed in a building is my favorite. Stuff like this really inspires me to want to go build things.


Maker Profile - Kinetic Wave Sculptures on MAKE: television from make magazine on Vimeo.

"Reuben Margolin, a Bay Area visionary and longtime maker, creates totally singular techno-kinetic wave sculptures. Using everything from wood to cardboard to found and salvaged objects, Reuben’s artwork is diverse, with sculptures ranging from tiny to looming, motorized to hand-cranked. Focusing on natural elements like a discrete water droplet or a powerful ocean eddy, his work is elegant and hypnotic."

Alphabet Assignment

I did this months ago when it was assigned but of course I am just now uploading it. Here are two of my alphabets that I shot.

112 Cooper Shoot

Here are a few images I made in Cooper, TX for our Cooper show. I still need to figure out how to keep blogger from messing up the color on all these uploaded photos, if anyone has any suggestions let me know.





First Draft of Photo Narrative

This is the first draft of my Photo Narrative for Pho 112. It still needs some work, but its up for people to comment on.

I shot this series over spring break without the intention of using them for this. I didn't know I would be shooting there until the drive home anyways so the only lighting I had was a Speedotron kit that I ended up hauling up a 30 foot ladder. That was loads of fun.

Beautiful Color Photographs from the WPA


Add Image













I found this article today on PDN showing 14 beautiful color photographs from the WPA during the depression. I find this fascinating because I have only ever seen the famous black and white images we are shown in photo history. I dare say some of these images are just as good as the more famous WPA works and do alot more to make the depression years feel less like ancient history and more like something we can relate to in current times.
