i did some pencil drawings you might like (you never
know...)

red------very good

thank you

I really like your stuff, probably in order of 1,3,2, but
I'd probably switch 1 and 3 because 1 looks like an ep7
cover inspiration, less original. I draw things that are
very similar to what you are doing. The themes are symmetry
basically, ignoring things in reality and just making
interesting things to look at. I don't know how to make a
web site or copyright a drawing yet though. Have you read
mandelbrot's "the fractal geometry of nature"? He has some
very interesting ideas. Just drawing a single a line and
branching a 45 degree split on the end, then a split on both
of those ends and a split on all four of the resulting ends
(repeat, repeat) is a very interesting scaling fractal that
looks just like the construction of brocoli or a tree. I
noticed that with most trees, you can visualize a single
limb of almost any choice and size and it could be cut off
and planted and it would look just like a regular tree (but
with bigger leaves).


 

red ivi der on 2001-09-28 19:44 [#00037606]



yes indeed, i love fractals. the drawing that looks like
the ep7 cover was one of my earlier ones, but it actually
wasn't inspired by ep7 although i admit it looks a lot like
it. that one was just "generated" by switching the idea of
what the negative and positive spaces between the lines
were. i'm glad you like my stuff - i'm really interested in
the idea of using rules to "grow" a drawing (with some human
variability thrown in for fun of course). do you do any
programming? i put up a few applets i did which i kind of
enjoy watching (esp. when stoned).


 

r ediv ider on 2001-09-28 19:47 [#00037609]



oh yea - and if you're interested in fractals in nature -
check out this thing called a "broccoflower". i dunno what
the fuck it is, it must be some kind of hybrid organism or
something but they sell it in the grocery stores around here
(in north carolina). anyway, it has the most stunning
fractal patterns on it, it's so perfect it looks almost
computer-generated.


 

redi vid er on 2001-09-28 19:49 [#00037610]



ah that's cool reflex, it reminds me of a graffiti-type
style (do you tag at all) but with an industrial leaning...
do you have any more stuff?


 

rediv i der on 2001-09-28 19:56 [#00037614]



ok gimme like 20 minutes or so i'm on the way home from work
but i'll check the topic when i get home...


 

melody from mcdonalds on 2001-09-28 20:07 [#00037620]



YEAH.... Art] creative stuff ...good posts melikes. This
weekend im gonna work out how to use photoshop and put some
of my own "APHEX" Art up for all you mad monkeys. Is it
easy to put up pictures on the net (I got a
scanner/imac/photoshop- what else?) I suppose ill find out
.... I got a pic of sum of my graffiti wall-art i can
hopefully post too...... any advice?


 

redivi d er on 2001-09-28 20:40 [#00037639]



damn geocities straight to hell, they cut off your site for
an hour b4 i could check your last one, they do that shit to
me all the time...
i liked disfony2 tho that's cool


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-09-28 22:05 [#00037665]



I don't know about your work reflex. It depends on how you
made it, I mean if you just took a picture of some buildings
then quickly drew some graffiti on top, it sucks, but if you
graphically designed the buildings, it's obviously really
good. I'm guessing it's the former. It's not scientific,
it's not a system of units acting as a whole, it's more like
bad versions of "graphic arts", used for ads and commercials
and stuff. But I only checked your first and disfony2.


 

red ivi der on 2001-09-28 22:08 [#00037666]



ah well i don't like to dis peoples' shit. if someone
thinks their own stuff sucks, they'll never get any
better...


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-09-28 22:13 [#00037668]



It's constructive critisism, my view is that I'd personally
rather an observer of MY art be honest so I do the same. ;)


 

redi vi der on 2001-09-28 22:15 [#00037669]



i can't stop listening to bubble-icious tree stump hoedown
or whatever the fuck - i'm addicted!


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-09-28 22:21 [#00037672]



Ha ha, that's a better title, thanks a lot! With that song,
I decided to make it more like a "regular song" with about 4
distinct parts acting together, then have periods in the
song where these parts are either subtracted or added. It's
the most "songish" of my music. Plus all the "percussion"
and melodies follow the melody of the main part that begins
the song (and that starting part was based on using mirror
symmetry about a central key on the keyboard). It's not
mixed up that much, it has more order than my other stuff,
so it probably gets worse on repeated listens.


 

re di vider on 2001-09-28 22:24 [#00037673]



hey do you have any visual art anywhere at all on the web?


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-09-28 22:31 [#00037675]



No, but I seriously think you'd really like it. I'm my own
critic and I really like it, it definately has parallels in
your work. When I started, I focused on creatures, if they
were human they were twisted and deformed. Then I just
completely rejected drawing anything human and few things
alive, and focused on more mathematical changing patterns. I
have some seriously wicked shit, I've thought about making a
book and publishing it or something, it's all just using a
simple pencil and usually typing paper. I created a lot of
it in school when I was going through some totally weird and
awful times that made my brain all crazy.


 

redi vid er on 2001-09-28 22:35 [#00037676]



i'd love to see your shit, you should get an account with
geocities and learn some basic html, trust me html is a
piece of cake, anybody could do it.
i've got a lot more drawings that are just as good, but it's
fucking expensive to have them scanned as i don't have a
scanner. hopefully soon i'll put up some more...


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-09-28 22:44 [#00037679]



I'll probably do that, I wrote down the geocities link (I
have a huge list of weird and good links I find on this site
that I've yet to go back and thoroughly check out, heh heh).
I'll do it later when I'm all situated in my new apartment
and new job... I'm trying to get myself together right now
and move out, it's a brain hassle, damn reality. I would
mail them to you, but I don't know how copyrighting works. I
would trust you not to steal them or anything, but I just
don't want to take any chance, I don't know why it's just
some stupid pencil lead on paper, but I don't know you
personally so I can't therefore trust you... I'd actually
WANT you to see them, so someone other than me can tell me
what they're like. The scanner in this house makes drawing
look blurry, less detailed, because it's pixels aren't small
enough (but I draw pretty small stuff)


 

re divid er on 2001-09-28 22:49 [#00037683]



of course i wouldn't steal your shit, but it's also
understood that you can't trust me as you don't know me. as
far as copyright goes, "copyright is secured automatically
when the work is created", in the words of the US copyright
office. therefore, all you have to do is *say* it's
copyrighted and it is.


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-09-28 22:56 [#00037685]



Are you serious? That's great (and easy)... you just need
some proof that you were the one that made it, which
wouldn't be hard. (When a huge oj simpson size court case
comes along for some stupid little drawings just go... well
if HE made them... pull out a copy of your copy... how come
I have THIS? crowd goes "ooooooh") Give me your email
address and I'll contact you later when I'm all moved out
and situated and stuff if you want.


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-09-28 22:58 [#00037686]



(then I'll mail them to you) my email is iannoll@hotmail.com


 

redi vi der on 2001-09-28 23:00 [#00037687]



hehe i wish someone actually wanted my drawings enough to
steal them, but i'm paranoid just like you so i copyright
them anyway.

audio_fyle@hotmail.com


 

*redivider* on 2001-09-28 23:02 [#00037688]



well i'm out man, gonna go party for a bit...
i'm sure i'll see you around the board tho


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-09-28 23:03 [#00037689]



Again by that, it simply means you SAY it's copyrighted
right? You didn't go to some copyright office or
something...?


 

redivider on 2001-09-28 23:06 [#00037690]



go to

http://www.loc.gov/copyright/circs/circ1.html

that'll tell ya all about it


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-09-28 23:08 [#00037691]



All right, later then. I just realized your name is the same
backward, that's the only other word I know that does that
other than "racecar".


 

re divi der on 2001-09-28 23:10 [#00037692]



hey wait a minute - your's is too!!!

(theme to twilight zone fades in slowly)

hah!
anyways, i'm outta here

mutant death penguin: your links don't work
beanz: I just saw that one where you merely changed the
colors of someone elses picture into purple instead of
yellow....


 

BEANZ from http://darkscape.topcities.com on 2001-09-29 13:15 [#00037804]



just cahanged the colourz did i?? lol r u blind?? look
closer!! and did u c the other stuff there? u cant dis that


 

re divid er on 2001-09-29 17:55 [#00037830]



beanz i think your stuff is the shit - i especially like the
drawings you did by hand (the eye is my favorite).
i dunno if you caught the link above but i thought you might
like my stuff, if it's not too out there for ya:

http://www.geocities.com/autocatalysis

there's some trippy applets up there as well...


 

BEANZ from http://darkscape.topcities.com on 2001-09-29 18:26 [#00037832]



thanx re divid er! good 2 c sum1 has this thing called "a
brain" and i did c that link, ya drawinz r good and original
and i like the main page, funkaaaayy applet thingz aswell
:o)

"alright stuff"

heh.
i'm no picasso, but i would like to think of my stuff as
better than "alright".


 

redi vid er on 2001-10-01 06:44 [#00038067]



sure?


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-10-01 08:10 [#00038071]



redivider: I looked at your code stuff... very inspiring!
I've always wanted to do stuff like that, any tips on where
to begin finding out how? This is visually superior to
simple unmoving permanent drawings, far more interesting,
but the pencil is a useful enough tool to record imagination
onto paper for future reference too. There's pros and cons
to any technique I guess, but the computer usually wins...
can you write software too, I'm not very experienced with
computers yet. Can you make a simple videogame for example?
It must be quite similar... They should seriously make a
sort of headset where you can view things like this,
available to the public, with geniuses like autechre doing
some insane crazy stuff like "light songs"... light can be
organized in so many more ways than sound. You can also view
more than one part at any one time, whereas sound you are
stuck in the split second of the present always. I'll mail
my drawings to you eventually, I really like your stuff...


 

Mm...MMmW...((mmMmm))...WmMM...mM on 2001-10-01 08:46 [#00038078]



It's all about stimulating the senses, art, originally
evolved to guide behavior more successfully, now they just
reside in various orifices in our face (and skin) connected
to specific parts of the brain, and don't have much use
anymore for a species with nothing to hunt and nothing to
fear being hunted from... you take drugs so I suppose you've
had some cool stimulations I havn't, all well... I've heard
people describe it, neon colors flowing and stuff... My goal
is to create some device where all the senses are stimulated
at once and in ways that interconnect with the information
recieved by each sensory brain lobe, light and audio and
touch only probably, since taste and smell don't really
organize well, you cant divide them into small organizable
units easily. Music videos are the highest popular step I
think, but most rely on the dancing chicks to stimulate
hormones... I'd like to see a music video, rather a "light
version" (since "music videos" don't have a reputation for
doing what I envision), of an autechre song... where the
sounds are interconnected with the light in some way. It
would take forever to make it, perhaps software could be
developed to make the light AND audio at the SAME TIME,
already interrelated, the related light composition being
created as the sound is, so it wouldn't have to be done
seperately. I've seen those visuals that "dance" to the
music, and that's close... Of course, once I make this
(which I'll never have the resources or brain power to make)
I'll want it to be interactive, like a videogame... then
I'll just reside in the virtual reality and leave the real
reality... if that... IS the real reality...


 

BEANZ from http://darkscape.topcities.com on 2001-10-01 10:24 [#00038095]



hmm bein as we r on the subject of code and all that shit i
just thought i would say about my pong game i made which u
can play here....
http://darkscape.topcities.com/gamepong/pong.htm ....itz
very simple code but i was just wonderin wot people think of
it and by the way it IZ possible 2 beat the computer on it!
and the pic in the background (classic) iz of my deranged
mate hahaha


 

M...wmM...Mw W m)M(m W wM...Mmw...M on 2001-10-01 18:40 [#00038159]



"maybe I ain't that shit" he he, I won 15 to 9, I would have
done better but that guy scared me. You should challenge
"deep thought" to a chess match with your little pong
program, heh heh.
Thanks for the links reflex.


 

redi vi der on 2001-10-01 20:31 [#00038182]



this has already been done, but i've thought of trying to
take audio input parameters (i.e. amplitude, frequency, etc)
and converting them via code into visual parameters
(brightness, spatial orientation). but java is really not
great for that sort of thing... i'm taking a class in c++
now, so hopefully that'll help. but like you said, it's not
the same as generating the sound and the visuals
simultaneously, already interrelated.
if you want to learn some java, check out this page:

http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/?frontpage-spotligh
t

that'll give you the basics, but it's pure creativity from
there on out... i personally use lots of recursion and
nested looping in my code.


 

M...wmM...Mw W m)M(m W wM...Mmw...M on 2001-10-01 23:46 [#00038224]

BEANZ from http://darkscape.topcities.com on 2001-10-02 02:56 [#00038249]



hey redi vi der u can do that kinda stuff on "flash" hav u
heard of it? i can send u a demo if u want?


 

re div ider on 2001-10-02 03:04 [#00038253]



i actually have flash, but haven't gotten the chance to play
with it all that much... i can do basic animations and
rollover buttons but that's about it. i'll check out some
more of the features though, cuz i've seen some purely
amazing shit done with flash on the web.
