Blue Boy expo #3

Stay tuned on Instagram

At the beginning of this year I had the intention

At the beginning of this year I had the intention to share more of my work activities on instagram (also on @de_module). So far it didn’t really worked out, but worked my ass off as a #zzplayer (I’m self-employed ;)

Consuming content is easy, but creating or daring to share is a different story. Who cares after all? Is it relevant? Or just leave it, too much effort.. Oh well, enough content eaters to entertain, right? 🙋‍♂️

Fortunately, I still have quite a lot of old content to work on my instafeed and to bore you. After that, I promise to introduce another cool huge new @motion_paintings project in public space at.. 🥁

#staytuned for more #rgb #lightart 🤹‍♂️

With a bang💥, the current Covid-19 crisis intro

With a bang💥, the current Covid-19 crisis introduced the general public to the field of microbiology. The profound implications which small scale phenomena (such as a 🦠virus) might have on us and our surroundings, became self-evident overnight.

Still, the molecular world can feel rather abstract, since one cannot properly see it with the naked eye. Our intuition for small things generally stops beyond a grain of sand. This #MotionPaintings wall aspires to make this hidden molecular world more accessible to the general public, through the act of zooming in.

The study of small things has a long standing tradition in the Netherlands. Starting with the acclaimed invention of the microscope by Zacharias Janssen around the year 1600. Some 74 years later, the first observations of unicellular organisms are made by Antonie van Leeuwenhoek. Fast forward to the year 1949 and Philips Electron Optics is producing the first Transmission Electron Microscope.

In current times, cutting edge Research and Development is still being conducted in Eindhoven by Thermo Fisher Scientific (who have been described as Eindhovens best kept secret). They kindly gave us a tour of their company, which served as the main inspiration to start exploring the microscopic realm.

Our design can be thought of as a playful, artistic exploration of organic shapes and their scales. Freely zooming and morphing between cellular, molecular and atomic worlds. Similar to the renowned Metamorphosis woodcuts by Escher, our graphic elements make a transition into new shapes along the horizontal axis. This ‘panoramic’ setup is especially well suited for a tunnel, since it allows the passersby to take in the work step by step.

Besides a spatial transition, we’re also making transition though time. Similar to shifting focus on a microscope, our coloured lights enable us to shift the focus within different layers of our design, making the graphics come alive. The changes in light will be tranquil (as to not distract cyclists and motorist). One hardly even notices it. However; each time a passerby will return, one sees the artwork ‘in a new light’.

A few weeks ago we were busy, doing what we love most.. painting in public space!

The cool thing about this project is that it’s a permanent Motion Paintings installation in a tunnel. That means that the mural comes to life at night trough colored LED lamps and you can visit it on a daily base.

The short movie and the extra info about this extraordinary project is almost ready to launch.. stay tuned! #excited

💫 A few weeks ago we’re asked by the lovely people of Trapped in Suburbia to make an #rgbexperience for @upsidedownamsterdam - the #instagrammuseum by @annanooshin ✨
.
.
🌈 We started to make something in an ambient vibe, so you wouldn’t leave the space with a epileptic attack 🤢
.
.
⚡️But their preference was actually an ‘over the top experience’, so we adjusted our light design added an Motion paintings floor and made it happen 🕺

Kind of strange, I never shared this promo before. It was our first step in theater with our Motion Paintings backdrop, props and clothing for the Adrenaline theatershow of The Ruggeds (b-boy crew) in collaboration with Spearhead (art direction) Still worth seeing if you ask me. .

Thanks to everyone who dropped by yesterday at the first opening of ART7. We had a blast! 🥂 If you have missed the opening, but still interested.. no problem. We’re open on a daily base. Hope to see you soon!

All magnificent things take a while and ask for so

All magnificent things take a while and ask for some extra effort. I’m so exceptionally proud of this project in public space at the design capital of Holland. Only a superb video can visualize it. Thanks to @mokkie_mok for this cherry on top!
And thanks to all the people and organizations, who made it happen. At first my dear colleagues @jaspervanes and #DaanBrinkmann. Without Jasper it wouldn’t be there and Daan is a fokin genius!
