Laughing Bike
(08 December 2005) - Another highlight from the Basel weekend (yes, updates are still coming) was Soundbike, an art project by Jessica Thompson. Basically, a fleet of bikes was outfitted to emit laughter when the rider pedals. The faster the pedaling, the louder and more hysterical the laughter. In addition to being a lot of fun, I though her piece was a perfect little statement on the art...

Scope Art Fair
(05 December 2005) - Scope presented as impressive a show as we've come to expect from their fairs. I appreciate the economics of including smaller galleries and less expensive work (the kind I can actually afford to buy), though I prefer a tent or hall to the difficult to navigate, overcrowded rooms and hallways of a hotel. The 70+ galleries from around the world presented works by some...

Wacom Cintiq
(09 November 2005) - As you may remember, we're sponsoring the Wacom Cintiq-- competitors will be on stage drawing on these LCD tablets which are big enough (21") for the audience to see the work in progress.
