Still-Life Performance by Johan Lorbeer
With Jahan still-life performances, this German artist seems to unhinge the laws of gravity. For hours on time, he remains, as a living work of art, in physically impossible positions. Elevated or reduced to the state of a sculpture, he interacts with the bewildered and irritated audience, whose appetite for communication rises as time goes by, often culminating in the wish to touch the artist in his superhuman, angelic appearance in order to participate in his abilities.
The trick is on the bottom of this blog ahboon.net

Flag by Jasper Johns
Flag (Moratorium), 1930
Look at the white dot on the middle of the painting for 30 secs, then look at the white screen under this.

Labels: art, interesting, unit 3
After image
Instructions:
1. Focus on the small white square in the middle of the picture for about 15 seconds (ignore the moving circle). Try not to blink. Then look at a white screen under the picture. You should see colors. What colors do you see?
2. Try the experiment again, except this time move your eyes to follow the little circle. After following the circle for 15 seconds, look at the white screen under the picture. Do you still see the colors?

What's Happening:
In the retina of your eyes, there are 3 types of color receptors (cones) that are most sensitive to either red, blue or green. When you stare at a particular color for too long, these receptors get "tired" or "fatigued." When you then look at the white background, the receptors that are tired do not work as well. Therefore, the information from all of the different color receptors is not in balance and you see the color "afterimages." You can see that you vision quickly returns to normal.
In the second experiment when you follow the moving circle, your eyes are always moving. Therefore, you do not give a particular color the chance to tire your receptors.

Jamie Oliver kitchenware by Ontwerpwerk
For the Jamie Oliver brand, the Hague design agency Ontwerpwerk has designed a line of kitchenware. These products will be introduced to the international consumer market at the Ambiente Fair in Frankfurt from 8 to 10 February.
The line consists of bowls in different sizes, a colander, storage boxes, sealable measuring cups, cutting boards, a salt and pepper mill, knives and a knife set.
The products distinguish themselves by their sober design, functionality, quality and affordability. Ed Annink, partner at Ontwerpwerk, has created a timeless design which enhances the products’ sustainability.
The products have been manufactured in a variety of materials. The main material is melamine, a synthetic resin. The colander and the mixing bowls have a matte exterior; the inside of these products has a high gloss finish. They are available in black and in white.
The cutting boards and the knife set are made either of bamboo or polyethylene. The synthetic cutting board’s surfaces have two different colors; white for vegetables and black for meat.
The knives are manufactured in stainless steel with a tactile rubber (polyurethane) handle. The measuring cups and the storage boxes are made of clear san (a mix of polystyrene and acrylic).

Right brain vs Left brain

Test here
My result
Left Brain
45%
Right Brain
55%
You are more right-brained than left-brained. The right side of your brain controls the left side of your body. In addition to being known as right-brained, you are also known as a creative thinker who uses feeling and intuition to gather information. You retain this information through the use of images and patterns. You are able to visualize the "whole" picture first, and then work backwards to put the pieces together to create the "whole" picture. Your thought process can appear quite illogical and meandering. The problem-solving techniques that you use involve free association, which is often very innovative and creative. The routes taken to arrive at your conclusions are completely opposite to what a left-brained person would be accustomed. You probably find it easy to express yourself using art, dance, or music. Some occupations usually held by a right-brained person are forest ranger, athlete, beautician, actor/actress, craftsman, and artist.
Your complete evaluation follows below:
Your left brain/right brain percentage was calculated by combining the individual scores of each half's sub-categories. They are as follows:
Your Left Brain Percentages
48% Linear (Your most dominant characteristic)
40% Reality-based
22% Sequential
21% Logical
14% Verbal
0% Symbolic (Your least dominant characteristic)
Your Right Brain Percentages
34% Random (Your most dominant characteristic)
34% Intuitive
32% Nonverbal
29% Fantasy-oriented
28% Concrete
24% Holistic (Your least dominant characteristic)
