These cement figures dangling from umbrellas within a narrow space inside the EBC office center in Prague are part of a installation titled Slight Uncertainty by Czech artist Michal Trpák.

Shinichi Maruyama photographs

NY-based photographer Shinichi Maruyama created these lovely photographs using nearly 10,000 individual photographs of a nude dancer in motion. The abstract images remind me of Japanese ink wash painting, as if the figures were cread by the stroke of a thick brush,. Of the photos Shin says:

I tried to capture the beauty of both the human body’s figure and its motion. The figure in the image, which is formed into something similar to a sculpture, is created by combining 10,000 individual photographs of a dancer. By putting together uninterrupted individual moments, the resulting image as a whole will appear to be something different from what actually exists. With regard to these two viewpoints, a connection can be made to a human being’s perception of presence in life.

Sculpure and Sculpture

Points of Contention is a 2011 installation by Jonathan Latiano that was installed in a gallery space at the School 33 Art Center in Baltimore. The piece features an explosive crystal growth protruding from a rippling gallery floor that is meant to call into question the continued production of plastics, resins and polymers and their long-term impact on the geological landscape around us.

 Via a press release for the exhibition:

Driven by the exploration of time, motion and the physics of the natural world, Jonathan Latiano presents Points of Contention, a site-specific installation sculpture that investigates the increasingly blurred line between the organic and inorganic as well as the spatial boundaries of where the spectacle begins and ends. Convergent forms of crystalline growth and explosive impact reinforce the hundreds of shards of custom cut and painted elements used to create the centerpiece of the exhibition. Through the use of reclaimed and altered wood, plastic, Styrofoam and site-grown salt crystals Latiano explores the question: At what point do the controversies of the present become the “new norms” of the future?

pen and ink illustrations

Keita creates composite pen and ink illustrations using thousands of densely scribbled doodles, goofy characters seemingly born from the margins of notebook paper that then form everything from Roman statues to artworks from pop culture. Several of these illustrations are actually part of a commissioned campaign for Expedia from late last year.

Merce cunningham, John cage and others

E-motion is a software that incorporates videos and it carries effects that make projectional performances more easier to work with. So basically in the video the filmmakers are again experimenting with the projections effects and music. Well in the beginning, i was somehow trying make a connection to what Merce cunningham and John cage were doing in thier times. It was merging the sound and dance in a single piece. cage's work is itself a piece of great art and so were the cunningham school of performance. Watching the documentary in the class, many of our fellows found the sound and the dance as a contradiction to each an other in the particular piece. I think it is because we don't understand specifically whats cage's sounds wanted to say, or we may don't wana know about it. and if we do , may be dont have the certain level of understanding to absorb what he is trying to communicate. I remember the first time we saw cage performing the sound piece No.(something)...we were literally making fun out of his voices. I believe its just we dont understand it....and we dont have what it takes to understand cage, then one possesses no right to mark is at Not-art.
For those of you(including me) who dont know what merce and cage were doing...may be its just a first step to absorb this video, it works in the same pattern but with a diffrent agenda.Here the music is more understandable to understand the idea.

I found all of them really interesting and entertaining way of performance, the first is the one in which two subjects engage in a surreal but highly entertaining dance through the warped fabric of space and time, made all the more wonderful with music from Beirut. 

this is how they explain the effect
Just to explain : we have not invented this effect, we have just developed it to work on GPU at 60fps as a Quartz Composer plug in, it is based on sculpting of a 3D texture.
It's made with a custom Quartz Composer plug-in that transform a video stream in a 3D texture.
It can run at 60fps live at lower resolution (512x512)

AFAIK the effect was discovered accidentally by a photograph called Jacques Henri Lartigues at the beginning of the 20th century (in 1912 to be precise) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques_Henri_Lartigue, with this famous photo : bokeh.fr/blog/photographes/la-voiture-deformee-de-jacques-henri-lartigue/
After it's just technical evolutions : photography->video->realtime video
The funny part is that rolling shutter of many camera is not a feature, it's a pretty annoying effect...

And the rest of two videos are performing with the projection.....now this remind me of how joan jonas works with her projection, i remember when we were shown the documentary and i went crazy about the idea of performing with the projection itself. This guy is pretty much doing the same stuff but using an affective method. Its not that i am comparing the both, no no nooo its not possible as one can't compare Gaga with Merce. and so an artist like joan whose practice is such unique that it is not comparable with other artists...But its more like im making a link between the two.
