art studio this way

So, it’s been awhile since I have posted. But that is for good reason; I have just recently gotten back from China and Korea, where I went with a class for the Gwangju Biennale, Busan Biennale, Seoul New Media Biennale and Shanghai Biennale. Our dean, Okwui Enwezor, was the Artistic Director of this year’s Gwangju Biennale, so he took it as an opportunity to lead a class in exploring the bourgeoning contemporary art landscape in Asia, with a special focus on spectacle and the incredible number of biennales taking place there. It was a great trip, much more cultural than the last one I went on with him, and we even found time to go to Beijing and view the aftermath of the Olympics.

WhoisZips

zips

I have been meaning to post this for awhile. Among other things, I recently wrote a Processing sketch that uses Carnivore to sniff the packets on a local network, then does a whois search on the IP address to look up the physical address attached to them. The sketch then displays the address, and plots it on a map. The more packets that come from a location, the brighter the dot.

In this iteration, I just used the Arin server, so it’s just for US addresses. This also limited me to a US map (which I stole borrowed from one of the examples in Ben Fry’s Visualizing Data book).

Since this is a Processing sketch, I could have done an embedded applet for this entry, but Carnivore requires some changing of permissions on the local machine to do the packet sniffing. And well, you can’t do that from a web page.

The code for this is here, but I will warn you now that it is undocumented. And it comes with no warranty, use at your own risk, etc. Enjoy!

In addition to a number of different projects (that I will put up at some point) I have been playing with making z-projections with Imagej. Fun stuff. More here.

self portrait

Summertime means not a lot of updates from me. I have been working on things, just not getting around to posting them. But I have some new pics that I am going to post.

In the meantime, here is a self-portrait after my latest seizure.
