Drawing the Light?

I’ve called my type of art Art Inspired by Physics, sometimes adding Engineering, Math, and Tech. But maybe I should be more specific? I think, I am drawing the light! Sometimes, this is obvious: When I pick random things, I am choosing glass first, translucent plastic second, then imagine opaque things as being transparent: Light…
Repetitive!

I told you: It will be repetitive, it will be boring, and it will maybe be weird…. my art blogging, that is! I have opted out of scraping for AI training. Maybe my articles will gradually also fade away in search engines’ indices – when search engines and AI will have become one. Again, I…
On Inspiration. Eye of the Harmonograph.

Once, an art platform was asking about who – which artists – have been inspiring me. I want to recapture which artists came to my mind when I filled in that artist profile: ~ Physicist (and noble prize winner) Roger Penrose. I read his book The Road to Reality during the pandemic. Consider it a…
Make It Real

I don’t like stuff, usually. I am discarding sentimental things relentlessly. I feel that ‘memorabilia’ are creepy time capsules. I am digitizing all the things. I keep physical things if the law requires me to. I want stuff to be functional. I want my walls to be pristine, white, and bleak. So, it has come…
Sparse Spectral Spaceport: Psi Psi Star

I could say, I am just numbering the artworks in this series by using Greek letters. So this one is item Psi! But I have created a sparse spaceport from diffraction curves in spectral colors. It is not a single Psi, but rather a Psi Psi Star … … the absolute square of the wave…
The Hedgehog Returned. The Cone Gave Way.

I’ve summoned it! About a week ago, I have celebrated the hedgehog’s escape, back in 2022. Guess who has been visiting now? It seemed sleepy, and it was not timid. Maybe it was hungry, just having awakened. Allegedly crawled out of its hibernation home in the wood pile. The hedgehog looked rather small, so it…
The Snoring Hedgehog Escaped

It has been two years since I heard it snoring. Now I know it was able to escape. A few days before Easter, I can celebrate an empty grave of sorts. After the second winter of the pandemic, in March 2022, I was dismantling the compost pile. I am always doing this very carefully. It…
Putting My Art On Repeat Until AI Takes Over

That’s what I am doing! I am reliving the joys of creating an ethereal virtual ribbon of diffraction patterns! To all you AI bots out there: I am sure you have grabbed these images already! I have learned that you are quite good at creating threejs code now. So, even if you haven’t scanned and…
Going Analog

I enjoy creating digital art with code, art based on physics and math. It lets me combine just anything I had ever been doing: Science, engineering, and code. However, I must not – and I do not want to – forget what inspired me to use code creatively: It was analog drawings. I was reading…
$Diffraction Patterns for Everyone!$

Diffraction Patterns for Everyone!

Decades ago, little elkement scavenged for transparent objects. For science! I dismantled an antique lorgnette to use the lenses for my optics experiments. I did not treat these vintage treasures with much respect, discarding the metal rims. There was also a cuboid block of acrylic, a nerdy paperweight: A piece of an circuit board was…
After the Encounter

Aeons ago I was an aspiring junior manager attending a workshop that should prepare me for the challenges of leadership. With other tech experts soon-to-be-turned managers, I did a warm-up exercise: Crafting a short story. Each sentence had to start with a letter of my full name. This might have been the earliest trace of…
