From ryorke at fsu.edu Tue Oct 1 15:53:17 2019 From: ryorke at fsu.edu (Robert Yorke) Date: Tue, 1 Oct 2019 19:53:17 +0000 Subject: [Art-mfastudio] Invitation to a Lecture on the History of Anatomy Message-ID: Greetings everyone, I would like to invite you ( and your students ) to a special lecture on the history of anatomy which I am hosting in room 2009 of the WJB, this October 8th from 9am to 10:15am. Dr. Christopher of the FSU medical college has graciously offered to give this talk to my Figure 2 course as well as any other interested faculty and students at our college. Given that many of us work with, refer to, or are inspired by the figure in general, I am sure you or some of your students would be very interested in this subject. The lecture will cover the history of the study of the human body and its related social/ cultural concerns. Dr. Christopher's knowledge of this niche subject is exceptional and I have been floored by how relevant this history is to the treatment of the contemporary figure. How we got to where we are is wild and weird indeed. Dr. Christopher intends to bring some of his own interested colleagues as well, which makes for an excellent networking opportunity for students interested in scientific or anatomic illustration. WJB 2009 comfortably seats 49. If you would like to attend, or plan to come as a group, please let me know. If necessary we can have more chairs brought in. I hope to see you there! -Robert Austin Yorke _________________ www.austinyorke.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Jabari earned his BA from FSU in Studio Art, where he focused in Photography, and he has worked in the labs as a volunteer for over two years. He will serve as our point of contact for all area facility inquiries. Stop by the labs and say hello! Some area news: PHOTO DARKROOM AND DIGITAL LABS The labs on the 3rd floor now have the hours listed on the documents attached. LARGE FORMAT PRINTING SERVICE (FAB335, open by appt only) The LFPS is returning to action beginning next Monday October 7th, Appts are to be made at least 3 days in advance through the link on https://labs.art.fsu.edu/large-format-printing/ (We are still working out the kinks of our appt system, but it should be ready by the end of this week). LIGHTBOX (Carnaghi Arts Building) Lightbox is the department's lighting studio and is returning next week. Reservation of the space is by appointment only.

Please remember that even while Jabari is now on board, that the entire Photo area is running two labs, a print service, and a lighting studio in a separate location on a very small staff. We love our staff, many of whom are volunteers, and ask that you treat them like the awesome people that they are.

They are planning on completing this friday and this will require turning off the ac in the evening (work will be done after 5pm). Additionally the building seems to be running cold, i am unsure if this is due to the work or a seperate issue but a ticket has been submitted. Rooms seem to be between 69 and 62 degrees with halways just above 70.

Message-ID: <2CA70C1C-12E7-49DD-A506-09BC27D1C4C9@fsu.edu> Hello MFA's, Sculpture classes in the spring can support your need to realize your work in the realms of 3D and 4D. Graduate students can register for a special graduate section of any of the courses listed below. ART 3701C, Sculpture 2, T/Th, 12:30-3, Instructor: Prof. Terri Lindbloom Prerequisite: ART 2701C Sculpture 2 is designed to teach and develop formal and conceptual sculpture making skills. Assignments will address certain fabrication techniques and concepts. The purpose of this course is to build upon the skills acquired in Sculpture 1 and related courses and to investigate traditional and alternative techniques. This course will also investigate other processes and mediums related to the sculpture discipline to include video, sound, light, digital media, performance, etc. Offered twice per year. ART 4929C, Advanced Workshop: Automated Sculptural Systems, M/W 12:20-2:50, Instructor: Prof. Rob Duarte Pre-Req: ART2701C Students in this course will consider the fascinating history of electronic and robotic art while learning the technical skills required to create their own responsive, interactive, and robotic sculptures. The title of the course comes from a 1972 dissertation from an FSU doctoral student, examining the ways in which we can thoughtfully and critically analyze "Automated Sculptural Systems." We will examine historical works from this genre as well as their contemporary analogues. Students will learn tools and techniques required to make sculptures that observe and respond to information about their surroundings. To do this, we will find ways to combine electronics and mechanisms with traditional sculptural techniques and processes. Speculative design, robotic art, interactivity, sound and installation art are all topics that will be explored through this Special Topics sculpture course. ART 4928C, Advanced Workshop: Iterative Making Thru Casting & Faux Techniques, T/Th, 3:35-6:05, Instructor: Prof. Carolyn Henne Pre-Reqs: ART2701C This course introduces students to various mold making and casting techniques and materials (plastics, rubber, plasters, wax, etc). Processes and materials for making an object appear to be made of a different material (faux techniques) will also be introduced. We will focus on the conceptual and practical benefits and challenges of making through iteration (repetition) through multiples and "faked materials". Assignments will be designed to support and advance each artist?s research interests. Class time will be used for discussions, formal and informal critiques, demonstrations, presentations, and independent work as time allows. Offered once per year. If you have any questions, I am happy to help.

Quintron and Miss Pussycat are celebrated artists from New Orleans whose performance includes hand-crafted puppets and self-engineered instruments. They have served as artists-in-residence at the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation and their patented instrument known as the Drum Buddy has been used by various performers including Nels Cline of Wilco, Laurie Anderson, Fred Armisen, and DJ Mr. Dibbs. [cid:f7eaead1-ad6a-49a6-a997-603cf6fc731f] The Bark will be offering FSU Arts students half off ticket prices ($5 student tickets) for the event. You will just need to let the door person know you are a grad student and present a valid FSU ID. This event will be enriching and a great way to engage with innovative art in an off-campus setting!
