I also love ‘ Bright Bazaar ’ for colour inspiration, as well as ‘ Eat, Drink, Chic ’, ‘ Orange You Lucky ’ - Helen Dardik’s blog, (her illustrations never fail to make me smile), ‘ Decor8 ’, and ‘ Style Me Pretty ’.

We then took different parts of each girl's designs and together they made their final drawing, then it was my turn to draw the final version of the design you see here. The poem is something fun that has been retold to me MANY times during my childhood, the product of being a chatterbox I'm afraid!

This did require an additional analysis step because not all URLs follow the same pattern. With most Web sites ‘actor’ equals ‘host’ (e.g., example.com) while actors on blog software usually are defined before the host on a subdomain (e.g., example.blogger.com), actors on personal homepages are often defined by their ~ after the slash (e.g., xs4all.nl/~example) just like microbloggers on Twitter (e.g., twitter.com/example). In the actor definition project we sought to formalize ‘URL patterns’ in the network. To identify nodes in the blogosphere as actors, we redefined ‘actors’ on a URL level.

]]> Comment on Minor Monumentals by Josie M. Ochoa http://blog.drawingontrope.com/?p=6969&cpage=1#comment-164 Josie M. Ochoa Sun, 12 May 2013 07:31:53 +0000 http://blog.drawingontrope.com/?p=6969#comment-164 These are a selection of drawings that have recently begun to embed architectural and landscape like marking into a ying and yang of monumental ism in a minor key- many art movements for example have a “rococo version’ ie Robert Smithsone site nonsites in which rocks were transported into a building via containers or not, as opposed to bulldozing mountains and so forth per earth art proper. Video and photo installations in museum settings have begun to build on a nostalgia for the earlier days of technology in which towers and machines and so forth generated a built environment as opposed to the next wave of virtuality. For my part I feel that drawing in cyber space gives the counter Rococo to this now available neo…. that is to say, the physicality of drawing as it encounters the ambivalence of information scale is sufficient to build a meta realm of genuine interest, similar to the way Morandi’s earlier metaphysical work was very physical and his later still life’s as observed and constructed actually very metaphysical. My own work if influenced by him is by neither style but rather his student style in which he drew spartan landscapes in a floral marking.

And all this from an architect who was just 26 years old when he finished the construction drawings in early 1937.

]]> Comment on Raft of Drawings Digital Drawing Tableaus by Cleveland Lowe http://blog.drawingontrope.com/?p=6857&cpage=1#comment-128 Cleveland Lowe Thu, 02 May 2013 14:15:27 +0000 http://blog.drawingontrope.com/?p=6857#comment-128 More details, though. Look at the boundaries broken once Honor enters the scene: Martin essentially breaks into the house and then the room in which Honor lies in bed with Palmer; and then he breaks into Georgie's apartment only to find her unconscious from the overdose of sleeping pills. Martin even explains his breaking into Honor's Cambridge house in terms of a border crossing of sorts: " . . . I had felt like a man running towards a curtain. Now that I had so suddenly and with such exceedingly unexpected results passed through it I felt dazed and in great pain but also curiously steady" (129). In this category of images suggesting limits and the breaking of those limits count also the wine spilling out of Martin's glass while he is, oddly enough, visiting with his wife and Palmer in their bedroom, the fact that Antonia will put a rug over the stain that the wine makes on the carpet if cleaning won't take it away (107), the scratch on Martin's writing table, that he tries to wipe away, and the shattered glass on one of the pictures he had shared with Antonia (145). The last two of these details suggest the partial ruin, at least, of a way of life, but they also represent an important event in the novel, the breaking through a veneer, a protective and attractive surface.

]]> Comment on Displacement and Then Displacement : Unscheduled Metamorphosis by Molly Lowery http://blog.drawingontrope.com/?p=6779&cpage=1#comment-125 Molly Lowery Tue, 30 Apr 2013 02:10:58 +0000 http://blog.drawingontrope.com/?p=6779#comment-125 Because of its ethereal posing of virtual reality digital drawing is away from stating physicality using such closeness to objects and relates physicality in new terms that range the haptic event of drawing as it pertains enfolds and discovers its own mode of meta – materiality.. In the drawings of my own which I have ranged and arranged above the first block actually quotes into the idea of a tableau by using a tiling mode to trope pictorial framing and architectural framing in terms of meaning and visuality that come out of the computer drawing process. One cannot really say the medium is the message because that sensiblity seems frozen in time like Medusa upon her moment of seeing herself reflected in her own shield. The shield that should protect, just as architecture to shelter could not survive the riddle that taking in the world over-ran the medium – there is always more to see. Medium in art have been materials and colloids, whereas cyber drawing is the free ranging spectrum. The tableau structures are then in my arrangement not frozen into material manifestoes but rather exploded over and over by its existance as a meta site- a place where as Deleuze suggests there is a contant metamorphosis upon changes in energy level.

This is really extremely open-handed of people like you to provide extensively just what a number of us would've marketed as an electronic book in order to make some profit for themselves, and in particular considering the fact that you might have done it in case you considered necessary. The guidelines as well served as the easy way to recognize that other people online have the same interest similar to my own to know a good deal more with regards to this matter. I know there are thousands of more pleasant times up front for many who read carefully your blog.
