(via Figurative Sculptures Made of Stainless Steel Ribbons - My Modern Metropolis)
Texas-based sculptor Gil Bruvel manipulates ribbons of cast stainless steel to create spectacular figurative sculptures for his Flow series. Each form is energized with fluid, flowing lines of metal that appear all-at-once sturdy and fragile. Each metallic strand serves as a piece of Bruvel’s captivating puzzle, all of which work in unison to depict “the natural strength and quiet majesty inherent in integrating the various levels of existence.”
Bruvel’s collection often features a sense of duality. In his piece titled Dichotomy, the artist presents the bust of his figure constructed in two patterns. One half of the sculpture consists of vertical lines, while the other half is composed of horizontal ribbons. Each half incorporates his signature style of fluidity, making it seem as though the malleable material is forcibly windswept, causing ripples in its shape. The artist’s statement reads: “Bruvel’s ribbons of energy may flow in parallel streams, yet they convey the subtle and complex human intersections of beauty and pain, inner and outer, the ephemeral and the eternal now.”

My work explores the relationship between the body and multimedia experiences. With influences as diverse as Rousseau and Francis Bacon, new insights are crafted from both mundane and transcendant narratives.

Ever since I was a child I have been fascinated by the traditional understanding of the mind. What starts out as hope soon becomes debased into a dialectic of lust, leaving only a sense of dread and the inevitability of a new order.

As shifting replicas become frozen through diligent and academic practice, the viewer is left with an impression of the edges of our era.

I would rather be seen as living, longing flesh, evoking desire and provoking passion; rather than a rational option for a relationship, a good choice for settling down. My hunger to sweep someone away rises thousandfold above my need to provide for that very same person.
Flotsam and jetsam from notes collected over the years.

Random confessions of a cyberculturist #3

Gamification, pragmatism, lifehacking, transhumanism, and objectivism are some of the lifestyle designs that intrigue me.

I seriously wonder why the Internet of everything hasn’t arrived yet.

I would volunteer to be a Daemon agent and a cyborg.

Snow Crash is my drug.

The FuelBand by Nike, which has become an unlikely leader in wearable computing.


“We’re on the tail end of technology being special,” says John Maeda, president of the Rhode Island School of Design. “The automobile was a weird alien technology when it first debuted, then, after a while, it evolved and designers stepped in to add value to it.” …
Now, Mr. Maeda said, this shift has happened to technology, be it computers, smartphones or the iPad Mini.
“We have this exciting next step for design,” he said. “Now that we have enough technology to do anything, design can now begin to be better than the technology itself.” …
The worship of design has also taken designers out of the back offices and into top executive jobs. Engineers are still in the mix, to be sure. But they don’t rule the roost in product development, which may also be why tech products are easier to use, more human.

I just tried zeebly’s Social Me and found it very interesting. Especially the part pictured above. Oh, and this: 20,848 words typed. You have posted as many words as a book! In fact, you have posted more words than the U.S. Constitution, which has a total of 7,818 words. Topics: Research, Mobile (what the?), Art, Writing, Education, Literature, Fashion. Anyone else feels like sharing theirs?
