About This Project

Took me forever. First, I completed "the project" donkey years ago. Loaded it up as a folder on my Gmail account and saved it on my system. That's when the movie twist started.

Corrupted File

My system 'caught' a virus and this infected the files. I thought I had already covered that area (since I had it stored on my Gmail account).

Didn't Work

I tried downloading it from the account and it did not turn out as I expected. Apparently, some of the files were already corrupted before loading it up and that's what Gmail returned back to me.

What Next?

I gave it a long break (like very long a break) and when I attempted to get the folder from Gmail, I was told that they no longer stored folders (I think that is what I was told). So I could not download it.

What Next II?

I started the art work again (and it was real work). It took me about 3 years or more (granted, I did not labor at it day and night everyday). I finally completed the first part, which was to get it frame done (you will have to see it to have an idea of the amount of time I had to put into this labor of loaf-art).
The second part was easier and that was turning each frame into a short movie. I broke it down to 3 distinct stages.

What Next III?

It was a call be Guardian Witness that made me complete the task. They were asking for artistic contributions for their "witness program" and I kind of figured they might be interested in it. They weren't (although I think they accepted, then rejected two other loaf-art artworks).
Having completed the project, I decided to post it here (I knew I was still going to post them here whether they accepted it or not).

WHAT AM I REALLY RATTLING ABOUT?

Let me post the first part here and we might get to talk about it and the others soon (that will be next year). And by the way; Happy New Year!!!

Format

Here's what I'm thinking of doing.

• Post a video

• Talk (write) about the video

• Post the frames that make up each video & talk about them since they are individual artworks, each building on the other(? Not too sure about this yet)

• Post the next video and repeat the above 

Everything above was done using the Paint Program

Splashspace

Splashspace

Splashspace

I think I have something about space. I just realized that it is a theme I always come back to with my loaf-art. I can reel out AnotherSpaceLife, then there was Spaceportal and now there is Splashspace, which is something I did before Spaceportal (I think I have posted something on it before but I am not sure). Maybe I should just omit the word space, beginning to sound like a movie director that is stuck on one rail.

But there is something about space that will always remain compelling. The intricate connection of stars, galaxies and everything that is space has with everything else makes it a place where we are undeniably one with it.

Splashspace is a collage of every space phenomenon. It shows our frailty and strength, in-consequence and value. You can see energies and how they are a paradox of self-sustenance and dependence on each other.

There is balance and it is a balance that is robust and delicate at the same time. The implosion or explosion of Jupiter could be the end of our solar system, just as the destruction of our moon could mean the destruction of the earth as we know it. There is balance at every scale. Therefore, Splashspace talks about scale.

Things happen in splashes and the ripple effect is evident. And just as the Sun is a living entity as it were and anytime it coughs the earth and its cousins sneeze, the same rule applies howbeit on a larger scale when it comes to inter-galactic relationships.
Energy is being released and absorbed at that level as stars go out and come to live. We are interconnected. A piece of paper that is dropped in some street in New York will have a ripple effect that will affect someone on the streets of Melbourne.

InTheThroes: Art as Thick Expression

InTheThroes

InTheThroes is a very expressive work of art that may leave little to the imagination. There is a clear attempt to leave abstract figures as most of the Microsoft Paint loafart on this blog tend to be and depict something that is clear enough for any observer to note. For instance, a hand can be clearly seen boldly stripped in the strong colors of loafart.

Without aiming to prejudice the subjective interpretations of the forms depicted in this artwork, the other form seems to suggest a woman. This is underlined by motion, which the whole canvas seems to depict. The woman seems to be walking while the hand seems to be in motion.

This is interesting because it looks like the hand is in the act of moving towards groping the woman. This is underscored by the name of the piece InTheThroes. The bigger picture the name suggests is not the particular act itself but the capturing of intention. Intention is motion and once that motion is set, it is a good as the act being committed even when something happens to prevent that act from actually happening.

This is arguably one of the best loafart in terms of expression. However, it can be chalked up with others that follow the style of using thick black lines. You can also see this with confarence and cultural collapse collage.

It would be interesting to get a more subjective interpretation of this work of art so your thoughts are welcome.
