ENTERTAINMENT Exotic Rubik's cubes Everybody’s seen a Rubik’s cube before. An ordinary looking cube comprising of 27 smaller cubes and with 9 axes of rotation and a unique colour for each face. But below are five mind-blowing variations of the traditional Rubik’s cube that even cubists may fail to recognise: Dino cube Unlike the Rubik’s cube, the Dino cube has 8 axes of rotation. Rather than having pieces turn in layers, the pieces are moved by turning the corners of the cube. The dino cube appears as a regular cube with pieces separated by the diagonals of each face. Dino cubes owe their name to the stickers they were originally produced with which had images of dinosaurs on them. Dino cubes are now available with 6, 4 and even only 2 colours. Rainbow cube While the name of this cube suggests that the rainbow cube is a (geometric) cube, the rainbow cube is in fact, a cuboctahedron. The rainbow cube appears to be a Dino cube with truncated corners. Like the Dino cube, the Rainbow cube has 12 moving pieces and 8 axes of rotation. However, it has an additional 8 ...
Evan Penny takes a completely different approach to hyperrealism. He manipulates the space where the object resides in. This technique shows the audience that a 3D space can change with the right type of effect on a sculpture. As he distorts his works of art in the space, it has an effect with the relationship between the viewer and
In Rauschenberg’s art piece, the visual elements include, it’s a painting, the two thin lines within the fabrics and the whole painting right down the middle, small vertical, horizontal and diagonal lines between the fabrics the colors used just as much as the fabrics. The painting I think is abit light from the yellow, white and red colors that blend with fabrics that are the same color. There’s no design in the piece, it’s a chaotic and random composition work since the artist has all the materials blended together including the wooden frame. The elements like the colors pink, blue, orange and yellow plus the random choice and random visuals also have the viewer’s attention, maybe forcing the viewer to look deeper into the art piece.

The dinosaurs were brought to life using ground breaking CGI by the “wizards” at Industrial Light & Magic and life-size animatronics by Stan Winston. Each frame the digital dinosaurs were in would take hours to render but the results speak for themselves. Stan’s team created animatronics for several of the film’s main dinosaurs. The T-Rex animatronic alone stood 20 feet tall and weighed 17,500 pounds (Jurassic Park (film), 1993). Animatronics were also created for the film’s triceratops, velociraptors and dilophosaurus. To give the dinosaurs their voice, samples from around the animal kingdom were combined to create unique blending of sounds for all the main dinosaurs. To make sure the audience would hear the dinosaurs as he intended, Steven Spielberg invested in the creation of a new company dedicated to digital surround formats called DTS. This brought digital sound into theatres in a way like never before. All of these innovations earned the film three Oscars for best sound, best sound effect editing and best visual effects.
OSU’s Fairbanks Hall is placing the combination art solo of black and white drawings, and one dominate sculpture. The invention series includes six pieces of black and white drawings, with black ink on white sketch paper. The sculpture, Rounds, was built with yellow cedar shingles over the past few years. Each drawings presented the complexity of molecular-like, and cellular-like system. Each part of the three dimensional sculpture was followed in previous component to shaped as an integrity round. All of the
An interesting fact about LeWitt is that he never referred to his 3D work as sculptures but as structures instead. As a result, he designed the Circle with Towers with the mindset that it was a structure relating to architecture rather than traditional sculptures. Moreover, LeWitt’s artwork is seen as radical because of the idea behind it. For example, he claimed that a concept could generate a work of art and stated that “the idea becomes the machine that makes the art”
Josef Albers was a well-known and influential artist of the twentieth century. He was known for his use of vivid colors and interesting and abstract shapes. He was instrumental in ushering in the Modernist movement as he was a teacher to many of the great artists of the 1950s and 1960s. In 1963, Josef Albers released a book surrounding a series of paintings he did, The Interaction of Color. This book was crucial when it came to art education and various applications in his and his student’s works. His final series was his Homage to a Square that only used squares and rectangles with varying colors to demonstrate spatial relationships between the shapes and the colors. Albers use of shape and color, particularly in his Homage to the Square

The brilliant Albert Einstein once stated “Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.” Illusions, or that which causes our misinterpretations, surround us. Our society loves to deceive and to be deceived. People eagerly flock to magic shows and our children are exposed to countless optical illusions as they go through school; illusions are an integral part of society. As a result, Alyssa and I decided to create our own illusion. After a little research we stumbled upon a drawing of a Rubik cube that, when viewed straight on, appears real. However, turning the page reveals that it is indeed a drawling. Alyssa then embarked on the task to recreate the incredible illusion.
I was in my house playing video games and I saw a ring on my tv and I put on. The top popped open and a button was showing. I pushed it and all I could see was colors. When it stopped there was dinosaurs ever were.
The Hall of Saurischian Dinosaurs presents dinosaurs characterized by grasping hands and offset thumbs. The groups within this family are Theropods, Tetanurans, and Coelurosaurs. The exhibit is organized around these categorizations. The bulk of the exhibit features dinosaur fossils, many of which were arranged to appear as though the skeletons of the animals are standing in the room. These installations are huge, and it is an awe-inspiring sight. Plaques in the room share information about the dinosaur, and where the fossil was
4D printing offers the ability to make things that literally pull themselves together. The technology could also create objects that last longer than their 3D-printed counterparts and adapt to specific conditions on command. 4D printing is relay about using a 3d printer to print self requfingering programmable material. For example you have a non-living object that can change his shape and behavior over time kind like a robot but no microprocessors, in fact something that looks like a plastic. Skylar Tibet’s, the man who came up with whole idea has gone even fodder; he created a programmable sheet material. It look like a plastic, that in combination with the water it could change the shape in the cube. And the cube is just a beginning. It will be a million of shapes. It could be so useful, not just on the Earth but in the orbit as well. This idea could change the world, and living on it. Imagine you could just print your furniture. An...

This furniture piece designed by Tjokeefe is a three in on table. The piece consists of 3 pieces, that when put together form a cube, when taken apart can be used as two end tables and a coffee table, or three seats. The possibilities are endless. A splash of colour with the one piece being bring yellow and the other pieces white and black lends a bit of fun to the piece. 20
