Dumbo Arts Festival

Sunday Sept 29th My brother, his girlfriend and I spent all day at the Dumbo Arts Festival.

we saw... a ton of stuff with only a few select highlights such as
Laetitia Soulier's "The Fractal Architectures Series" What made her work so interesting was the model in her studio and the video showing her making a different model, for her photographs.
 Nick Yulman's "Animal Magnetizer" which is an interactive music piece that allows spatial sensing to let viewers control the patterns played by hovering their hangs over a variety of mechanical instruments.



& some other cool stuff too
Amanda Day Cavalli "The woods the Sky and the Clouds"


This Photo exhibit was amazing

Ayumi Tanaka "Hide and Seek"

Toru Shiomi "Nature of Civilization" I really loved this work!!!

I have no idea what this is... 
Singularity and Company, an awesome sci-fi store we found!


We also did this weird penny interactive project....
You take a penny from the box, they all have a sharpied # on them. You then place it on a tapes brick with a saying. For example.. mine said "I have a dream" they all said different things like.. "i cheat on my lover" "I tell lies" "I have many fantasies" "i lost a child" etc. After you put you penny down you look up the # and find your emotion... my penny was 241 my "emotion" was "replaceable".... (can't say I was happy about that) We actually didn't complete the project for 1) I took too much time reading all the sayings and 2) the final step required us to write something and we simply didn't want to.  I feel like it was interesting but as engaging as the 1st step was the rest wasn't...
