Paul Demarinis' lecture was fascinating. I enjoyed his work with combing sculptures and sounds. In some ways he seems like more of an engineer than an artist. I found that interesting because some of the projects this semester felt like engineering or a science project. I never realized before how much those two subjects can actually influence each other. Demarinis' art is somewhat interactive and has an element of fun and lightheartedness. My two favorite pieces that he mentioned in his lecture are the musical rain drops, "Rain Dance", and the musical rainbow, "A Light Rain".
I liked that his art wasn't traditional. His ideas are very unique, he really brings something different, but enjoyable to the art world. “Firebirds” is a great examples of his unique innovation. I love how “Firebirds” takes something so out of control and traps in a cage.
Demarinis' lecture was engaging and entertaining and it gave me a new perspective on how art can include elements of science.
Questions
1.Does science play a role in your work?
2.Are your pieces, such as “Rain Dance”, supposed to have an air of lightheartedness to them?
