DRAMATIC PROJECTS BY PROXY

Kim Sterling showed photos of sections from the 105 foot by 7 foot mural of the history of flight that he designed on a Macintosh and produced on Durst Lambda Imaging System. The mural wraps around the lobby of an office in Arizona. Marsha Nygaard presented a photo of a maquette of dramatic solar-powered light sculpture gates made of bronze and glass 28 feet high set by a reflecting pool

THRILLING THREADS

Floating from the ceiling in the center of the gallery was Mary Steiglitz's eight foot banner of Fuji silk brocade with photographic digital inkjet print based on mineral imagery . Mary Teetor designed many tesselations and hand-embroidered them in colored threads on a cloth which was suspended from a rack to show both sides of her exquisitely meticulous stitching.

FASCINATING USES OF COMPUTER HARDWARE

Jim Pallas used circuit board technology to create a drawing/collage representing his hope of uniting the cultures of the world: past, present and future. Larry Ackerman made a light box with a drawing that honors his invented patron saint of electronic art St. Rubidium using another style of circuit board technology. Famous Melissa's huge American flag was painted on discarded computer chips wired together. It hung from the center of the gallery as a symbol of our patriotism, our technology and the shamefulness of our waste.   < > more
