Chromatic Typewriter

By replacing the ink ribbon with paint blocks on an antique typewriter, artist Tyree Callahan has created a new conceptual medium in which the notions of paint and words converge. Initially started as an experiment to apply watercolor text to a work in progress, the project grew to the resulting object, aptly named the chromatic typewriter.

“I also tried to incorporate things that would offer a significant suspension of disbelief to the piece. The ribbon, for one. At the moment, it is a slice of a stellar spectrum analysis of our sun. An homage to the one thing that really makes art what it is in the universe: light. The keyboard's spacebar also incorporates the idea of 'negative space.'"

Illegal Rainbows

Rainbows have reflected on this blog previously, however didn't reoccur as often as this street artist has been improving dull building facades.

In an ongoing series titled Illegal Rainbows, an unknown artist dubbed the Rainbow Warrior is using spilled paint to pour rainbows off the tops of buildings in Albuquerque, New Mexico. In an interview with the street artist, the rainbows are a way to cope with depression. However, city officials don't see anything socially good about defacing buildings. You be the judge.



Here's to your pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Bringing Colors to Life

I'm on a dance video posting frenzy. This one comes more as an abstract art dance.

Using a speaker, a membrane and paint, it is graceful art of paint movements. And this artistic paint glamor is captured in 5,000 frames per second creating a clarified slow motion effects.
