Each pieces are connected both by elastic and by rigid cord, which makes them react not only individually but also in a group. Through this swarming, the closed field obtains openings which act as visual filter.
I've added a second layer to the received piece. The two layers are separated by a system of longer tubing at alternating heights of that are strategically placed within the original network. The resulting deformation is the result of the internal resistance of the two membranes played against each other. the gap between the two layers is activated by a web of thicker gauge elastic string (this also helps reduce the apparent singularity of the longer tubes by creating a denser field between the two membranes. I've also noticed that when you begin to play the two systems against each other, the internal webbing functions as a way of augmenting the visual index of any distortions of the system.

“It is a very, very close and difficult thing to know why some paint comes directly across the nervous system and other paint tells you the story in a long diatribe through the brain.”
binding—identifies material connections of the cyclical cycle—infinite scape; repetition within a defined boundary translucent—void-space—ambiguous production of the aforementioned
bound together we are stronger, yet we flex as individual beings pull me and i will follow you but i will take others too release me and we will all return back to where we belong
Network as interdependent Massive as quantity Resilience as adaptive to change Networked Massive Resilience as a system initiating choice in interdependence, dynamism in amount and structure in change
I wrote this text to help myself think about the constellation of attributes comprising my first territory, the translucent-swarm-filter-scape: "Translucent - Light, perhaps diffuse, may pass through it; Swarm - Like entities aggregate into a legible whole, but remain discrete; Filter - To select and allow or deny movement; Translucent-swarm-filter-scape - Discrete, aggregated entities diffusing light, selectively allowing some passage through the field."
so in addition to this blog there is also a studio wide blog...i will post a link to our blog on that blog site. having our own blog will help us keep the content edited and succinct.
i need all of your emails so that i can invite you to this blog-- throw me a quick email at dianaj.martinez@gmail.com for now all images posted to the blog should be posted at 10" x7.5 at 150 dpi
the image is of no particular importance...it is just a test.
