writing was always bad.

>>2038

It looks fascinating, I can't wait to see it.

I know it's fashionable now to hate Banksy, but can you honestly remember a time that anyone in this country was interested in an artist that wasn't put on a pedestal by Charles Saatchi?

>>2041

This is exactly right!

I've watched a few graffiti films, always incessantly boring. I'll wait for torrents.

Very interesting.

I love the saturation in HDR images. There's something awesome about them.

Only a couple of years late on this OP. The problem is that the technique, once established, became quickly overused and abused by beginner photographers who have no concept of subtlety when it comes to processing, and thus you end up with all these unrealistic alien-world photos. When done properly, however, it is difficult to even tell if the shot is HDR - pic related.

>>2243
The unsubtle, glaring vistas make good backgrounds though.

It is horribly over-used. It's this generation's lens flare effect.

Nice detailed one here but my connection's too slow to post it in the thread: http://www.rigb.org/assets/uploads/images/DEFORMEDFROG2.jpg

OP here, I love you britfa.gs. Also I need a large scale picture of him, if that would be okay? Still in gray, just like that Star Wars Nazi picture, but more of a focus on him in the centre of it. Not too much of a problem I presume?

Back of the net!

>>2220

Fine.

>>2021
Very obscure indeed.

>>2024

I'm glad I'm not the only one. All I could think of was old Yes albums when watching that movie.

Looks better IRL, the scan here is crap.

>>2020

Always liked that cover. I used to have a huge poster of it somewhere.

Some of these are great, thanks.

If I step on this can, will it explode ?

>>1701 I once heard Brian Sewell define art as anything which is produced by someone who calls themselves an artist. The emperor is indeed naked but who are we to judge his fashion sense ?

Personally, I don't like any art where I can't see any sense of craft or craftman's skill. I don't think a concept is enough. You need to back it up with years spent perfecting your skill. This doesn't mean I don't like modern art, but I don't like things like "a pile of bricks" or "unmade bed" which I have the skills to produce myself, even though I didn't come up with the concept.

>>2093
The term "art" is too diffuse these days. I agree though, with our world of production lines and copy-pasting, I find the most beauty in skillfully handmade unique objects.

>>2093

I agree. While I am often tickled by some of these modern 'concepts' they are just that - concepts. If you had simply written down what you were going to do I think I'd have gotten just as much out of the idea.

>>1701 Obscure? perhaps almost everything in the Tate Modern

One of these days I'm going to tape out a squre metre in there and place a small plaque on the floor next to it just to see how long it takes for them to remove my obviously post-modern artwork that is representative of the emptyness of existance and the futility of it al

hm

>>2091
I like that.

>>2084
Maybe you could work out the sequence of, say, a birds wing in flight and translate it into notes. Sort of... holistic music.

>>2084

I am researching and practising this atm, hopefully I should have a book out in may.

I use it all the time in architecture.

Well, 1:1.6

>>2086

You bastard, that was my PhD idea. You will have to let us know more about the book.

>>2088

Yeah sure, my idea is playing alot on Plato's world of forms and ideals as well, its only going to be a self published book though.

Still do a PhD in it, if I get any interesting research I will share.

>>2032
Doing it wrong then, they look awesome when I do it.

>>2026
Are my eyes supposed to burn and water?

>>2048
Why is this board populated by useless cretins? Stop being so pathetic.

>>2077

Man shut it, I've probably posted more here that you have.

>>2081

ffffffffff
I always saw it as the flipped version of that. I hope you're in the wrong OP.

>>1994
I don't understand that post at all

>>1995
I'm assuming somebody flipped it to tend to their own preference.

>>1996
Maybe but why would that put OP in the wrong and why does it matter?

>>1997
It doesn't "matter" as such, but some people (myself included) become really agitated when their long-held perception of something changes. Possibly a manifestation of OCD, which I know I have anyway.

>>2008

thats lovely :)

Here's one I took at Uni.

I am pretty chuffed with this picture.

>>2018

I quite like that one

My favourite but probably not my best

Never buy anything from the Baltic, but encourage people you don't really like to buy lots. They are supported solely by people willing to pay £5 for a badge or £4 for an ironic postcard.

>>2000
Steal some stationary and put them out business!

>>2000

Yeah I just steal that shit, things from all the tates and that. But Dvds and posters and buy

>>2001

I think they're kept afloat by the government to be honest.

Steal art prints, raise taxes!
