A blog about about painting, design and other aspects of aesthetics along with a dash of non-art topics. The point-of-view is that modernism in art is an idea that has, after a century or more, been thoroughly tested and found wanting. Not to say that it should be abolished -- just put in its proper, diminished place.

Cityscapes: Kuka, mitä, miksi?

Miten rakentaa parempi kaupunki. Kuka, mitä, miksi? Kuka, mitä, miksi? Teen väitöskirjaa Jyväskylän yliopistoon. Alani ovat kaupunkitutkimus ja ympäristöestetiikka, erityisesti elinympäristön viihtyisyys. Haen vastauksia kysymykseen: miten suunnitella parempaa ympäristöä? Rivien välissä pohdintaa paremmasta, inhimillisemmästä ympäristöstä ja yhteiskunnasta, joka ei perustu tuhlailevaan kulutukseen ja riistoon - ihmisten tai luonnon. Ja julkaisuni löytyvät Academia-palvelusta. Ihmiset arvostavat eri asioi...

Miten rakentaa parempi kaupunki. Kuka, mitä, miksi? Sunnuntai 1. tammikuuta 2012. Ihmiset arvostavat eri asioita ympäristössään riippuen iästä, sukupuolesta, kulttuuritaustasta ja tottumuksista, kirjoittaa kiinalais-yhdysvaltalainen, humanistiseen maantieteeseen erikoistunut professori Yi-Fu Tuan ( Topophilia, A Study of Environmental Perception, Attitudes and Values.

Cityscapes: Elintaso, elämänlaatu ja hyvä elämä
http://cityscapes-australia.blogspot.com/2015/04/elintaso-elamanlaatu-ja-hyva-elama.html
Miten rakentaa parempi kaupunki. Kuka, mitä, miksi? Sunnuntai 12. huhtikuuta 2015. Elintaso, elämänlaatu ja hyvä elämä. Hyvä elämä. Elintaso. Elämänlaatu. Tämänkertainen aihe ei liity suoraan kaupunkisuunnitteluun, mutkan kautta kylläkin. Seuraa tajunnanvirtaa aiheesta ovatko hyvä elämä, elintaso ja elämänlaatu sama asia tai keskenään vaihtoehtoisia termejä? Onko näillä aiheilla edes tekemistä toistensa kanssa, siitä huolimatta, että ne äkkiseltään kuulostavat samalta? Suomessa hyvää elämää ja elämänlaat...
Car Style Critic: Streamlined Škodas of the 1930s
http://carstylecritic.blogspot.com/2015/07/streamlined-skodas-of-1930s.html
A blog about automobile styling. The emphasis is on history, but the appearance of current production and concept cars will be evaluated as well. Thursday, July 30, 2015. Streamlined Škodas of the 1930s. I'm pretty sure that when the subject of streamlined 1930s cars from Czechoslovakia is raised, most people think only of Tatra. And its rear-engine models. 8203;But Tatra was not alone. The rival Škoda. The Škoda Popular line, here. The 1936-38 Škoda Popular Sport 909 Monte Carlo, here. Another advanced...
Car Style Critic: Very Long Hoods
http://carstylecritic.blogspot.com/2014/07/very-long-hoods.html
A blog about automobile styling. The emphasis is on history, but the appearance of current production and concept cars will be evaluated as well. Monday, July 14, 2014. Once upon a time, stylists such as General Motors' Harley Earl favored long, high hoods on their designs because this suggested that a car was powerful. This line of thought was based on the fact that many 1930-vintage luxury cars had large, powerful straight-eight, V-12 and V-16 motors that required long hoods. Voisin C 22 - 1931. Was in...

Car Style Critic: Chrysler's Jaguar-Like LH Models

A blog about automobile styling. The emphasis is on history, but the appearance of current production and concept cars will be evaluated as well. Monday, August 3, 2015. Chrysler's Jaguar-Like LH Models. Here I deal with a case that's not design theft, but it comes fairly close to it. For 1993, Chrysler finally abandoned its K-car bodies for the new LH. Series name that had been around since 1940 along with a nearly identical LHS model. 1995 ca. Chrysler Concorde. 1994 Chrysler New Yorker. Rear three-qua...

:: Art + Contraptions | Los Angeles ::
I have always been fascinated with how things work. This passion is fueled by creating works that merge sculpture, engineering, mechanics, geometry, modularity and a love of materials in order to spark interactivity and responsiveness between the object and the viewer. Most recently i have been afforded the chance to explore the field of sustainability and energy efficiency, creating works that give maximum benefit from the least input of energy resources.
