OFFF returned to Cincinnati again, the first city in the world to see a repeat of this ground breaking event. various artist and designers talking about what moves and inspires them in their work. I really liked Jon Burgerman who didn't even focus on his work but instead talked about what he sees as he moves around his world. Jim Victore I also got a kick out of, from what I heard he ruffle some feathers. His "quit your day job" take on life was out there, I wish I could do that. Actually from what he said I should do that. But, like everyone else I'm chicken sh!t.
AHHA! Something I am good at.
Then it was time for
ON! Handcrafted Digital Playgrounds an interactive installation and all you had to do was let your creativity flow. Photography, pen and paper, wood and sound. An invitation to not just view art but also to be an active participant in art.
Dang paparazzi!
doing a hundred on the highway...and you abouts to get ran the f#@k over
This was probably the biggest hit, Plywood, the art that spawned a thousand
vine videos.
someone asked the other day if I thought I was some kinf of rebel. It doesn't matter what I think, it matters what everyone else thinks. And look what someone labeled my self portrait.
How many events do you attend that force you to take a hard look at yourself? And I'm not talking literaly in a mirror, but deep down in, what are you doing and what does it even mean.
OFFF and ON have been one of those events for me.

how was sara blake (zso - whatever she used for the event)? i wanted to go just to see her. i absolutely love her work.
ReplyDeleteSarah was pretty cool, maybe not as polished a speaker as some of the others, she does do cool stuff.
ReplyDeleteThe last picture has her work in it, I can't remember the guys name but another artist took her work and animated it.
