crssReuben Sutherland’s Kaleidoscopic Doodles
Reuben Sutherland is from New Zealand and is job is ‘mostly making arty graphic stuff’. He makes his gifs as part of the Audiovisual duo Sculpture for live performances. He views his gifs as ‘doodles’ just to show zoetropes and how they animate. Despite his downplaying of these gifs as ‘doodles’ they are inventive, beautiful and mesmerizing. I may even call these Art.

crssLace Detailed Steel Objects of Cal Lane
Cal Lane is an artist from Victoria, British Columbia, currently living in New York.
I like to work as a visual devil’s advocate, using contradiction as a vehicle for finding my way to an empathetic image, an image of opposition that creates a balance - as well as a clash - by comparing and contrasting ideas and materials. This manifested in a series of “Industrial Doilies”, pulling together industrial and domestic life as well as relationships of strong and delicate, masculine and feminine, practical and frivolity, ornament and function. There is also a secondary relationship being explored here, of lace used in religious ceremonies as in weddings, christenings and funerals. With this notion of desirable oppositions I created the structure “fabricate”. In this Structure I hand cut lace trimming patterns into 9 I-beams, then constructed a tower, simultaneously macho, and of delicate finery. The metaphor of lace further intrigued me by its associations of hiding and exposing at the same time; like a veil to cover, or lingerie to reveal. It also introduces a kind of humor through the form of unexpected relationships…
