The Sundarbans is the largest single block of tidal halophytic mangrove forest in the world and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site covering parts of Bangladesh and Indian state of West Bengal…imagine it in resin!!! :D

Resin cube test piece from the mould that went wrong…even though it’s slow; progress is progress!!

Bad start to the day - mould’s gone horribly wrong :(

leaky tubes, which have to be ruined by glue now, severely behind schedule :(

Headband prep…

As ever, serendipity plays a huge roll in my creative process…my resin is cracking the inside of my acrylic tube  :/

Spectrum of Colors Revealed Through Lit String

British artist, physicist, and all-around science enthusiast Paul Friedlander produces kinetic light sculptures that provide a colorful feast for the eyes. Each piece in his body of work offers a visual medley of light and motion by rapidly rotating a piece of string through white light. The vibrating rope becomes invisible to the human eye, but colors from the light (which would normally be invisible to the naked eye) are revealed in rapid succession.

The scientific artist gives insight into the history of his career shift into the arts and explains the science in it all: “I decided to focus on kinetic art: a subject in which I could bring together my divided background and combine my knowledge of physics with my love of light. In 1983, at London’s ICA, I exhibited the first sculptures to use chromastrobic light, a discovery I had made the previous year. Chromastrobic light changes color faster than the eye can see, causing the appearance of rapidly moving forms to mutate in the most remarkable ways.”
