Robert Seidel

'In his films Seidel is interested in pushing the boundaries of organic beauty and their emotional perception with visual and scientific technology. By layering different structural, spatial and temporal concepts organically he creates a slowly evolving complexity. This multifaceted perspective, a kind of narrational skeleton is filled by the viewers own memory and creates a seamless blend with the artwork itself.'

UE



 Urban exploration (often shortened as urbex or UE) is the examination of the normally unseen or off-limits parts of urban areas or industrial facilities


Exploring new and interesting places has always been a massive hobby of mine. I've always been attracted to finding places that haven't been inhabited by people for a while or simply areas which are prohibited to public viewing.  

Here are a few photos I've collected over the past year










Here are a few photographs in a set on flickr I uploaded earlier this year, I will soon start uploading more to this set .






Explosive Art - Cai Guo-Qiang

Ive just stumbled upon Cai Guo-Qiang, a pyrotechnic pioneer who creates breathtaking gunpowder and explosive art in addition to spectacular installations. 




The installation above is by far my favorite of his, purely because I love how amongst all the chaos, it looks like everything has been frozen in time to create calm and order

Jenny Odell

I've just come across Jenny Odell, she makes interesting pieces from cut up aerial photographs. I particularly like the simplicity of her pieces and how she often replicates images of maps.
