Awesome. The surreality of the judicial branch.

This is why it’s better to have people as judges rather than, say, purple-assed baboons with a psychic interpreting to rulings. Otherwise it would be weird. Right? Right?

The Russians Used a Pencil: Idea to Market in 5 Months: Making the Glif

russianpencil:

On July 11th, 2010, Tom Gerhardt and I had an idea for an iPhone accessory: a tripod mount that doubled as a stand. Five months later, customers began to receive our product, the Glif, in the mail. This turnaround, from idea to market in five months by two guys with no retail or manufacturing…

Dream Logic (by Moi — {Jay Gidwitz Art})

[[posterous-content:pid___0]]

From the Artist Statement:

 

The exhibition of Dream Logic, was my senior thesis show in 2009. It contained some of my best surrealist work up until that point, created with photography and digital painting in Photoshop. “Surrealism” denotes a type of dream like imagery in art work as well as a specific movement of which Andre Breton was leader of until his death. And then of course there was Dali, who claimed he was surrealism - which was probably true.

Realistic & impossible dream-like imagery has probably existed since humans have been creating art. Many of my teachers insisted that while my work was “surrealistic,” it was not “surrealism.” Dream Logic sums up this work. It is meant to indicate an attitude toward creativity and the creative process, as well as work that is “dream-like” in nature without any of the Freudian baggage that surrealism was associated with.

My aim is to capture the surreal and mysterious world of dreams and the unconscious, the images that appear as you float towards the periphery of consciousness.

Most of the art here is new media: a mixture of photography and digital painting, or digital art.
