Annual Outdoor Quilt Show and Benefit for Strengthening Rural Families in Benton County - Live music, 80-110 quilts shown at Sweet Earth Vineyard in Monroe, Oregon (off hwy 99 halfway between U of O and OSU) Labor Day Weekend

I had no idea that there were events such as quilt showings! It really heightens my attention because I would love to go to an event such as this. It really reminds me that quilts really are pieces of arts. Not only in the way they are made but how they are displayed as well. It looked absolutely gorgeous looking at the pictures of the quilts hanging in the vineyard. This post and event really touches me personally because my grandmother loved to quilt and maybe I could be able to show one of her quilts one day adding my families culture and traditions to the world.

During Bungie's GDC panel earlier today, which was all about world-building, was this bucketload full of concept art, most of it unseen until today.

"Chicago-based artist Theaster Gates has developed an expanded practice that includes space development, object making, performance and critical engagement with many publics. Founder of the non-profit Rebuild Foundation, Gates is currently Director of Arts and Public Life at the University of Chicago."

"The mission of the Museum of Photographic Arts is to inspire, educate and engage the broadest possible audience through the presentation, collection and preservation of photography, film and video." One of the many museums within the SD Balboa Park area, this venue used photography to capture some of the most powerful pictures.

What gorgeous imagery! It was hard to believe that these images aren't digital, but from film. The colors and textures are stunning. As a mixed-media photographic artist, I found Fayman's work particularly fascinating. Thank you for posting.

"Over 50 artists from Oregon, Washington and Idaho will be at the Northwest Crossing Bend Spring Festival this year showcasing fiber, sculpture, jewelry, painting, wood, metal, paper and pottery arts.

3D Projection Mapping A revolutionary technique to transform the world in ways never before possible. Some call it spatial augmented reality. We say it's a new paradigm in lighting, advertising, and entertainment that will leave your audience awestruck.

it is cool video about talking what is art.

Thank you! That was hilarious, but at the same time... thought provoking. I very much agree that art needs to elicit an emotional response or a narrative. It's got to move the viewer in some way...as far as I'm concerned, anyway. And who doesn't love Creature Comforts?

That's an awsome video about what art is! I like the way how this video describe what art is and the relationship between we and art. It makes me start thinking about virous posible way to creat art!

Just an interesting article on the relevance of of musical training in the real world! From the conclusion: "In years past, it was typical for college graduates to take a job in a good company, and stay there for their entire working careers. However, the rapid development of technology and the resulting changes in the skill sets needed for success has made that scenario less and less likely. In a world where an ever increasing percentage of the population experiences several career changes in a lifetime, no college education can supply enough specific knowledge to cover all the possibilities. Thus, an earned bachelor's degree-music or otherwise-is only a first step in the world. Those with a high-level, "musically flavored" college degree, not only have what it takes to make a good first step, they also have the creativity and drive to ensure that each succeeding step brings them closer to the happiness and fulfillment we all seek in life."

This is my absolute favorite place to spend time during the summer months! The Cuthbert has never disappointed me in terms of quality live music. The concerts are always reasonably priced and are decently regulated for the most part so families can attend. The atmosphere is unlike any other venue in Oregon and I highly recommend making a concert part of your summer agenda if you are living in Eugene this summer. "A beautiful concert venue with a capacity of 5,000, The Cuthbert Amphitheater offers everyone an opportunity to enjoy live music outdoors during spectacular Oregon summers. Located in Eugene, Oregon at the edge of Alton Baker Park near the University of Oregon's Autzen Stadium, The Cuthbert features superb sound, beer gardens, food booths and an environment perfect for enjoying superb music performed live by the best touring bands in the country."

I love making costumes!

This organization offers those with limited mobility the opportunity to move themselves physically - and others emotionally (as well as themselves) - though powerful performances. One of my favorite organizations

An article about a couple from UO who teach classes at the Craft Center and run an online Etsy business selling their glass work.

Using a parabolic-mirror technique that allows camera lenses to strip real life images down to their basest particles, sound waves are no longer invisible vibrations.

Visualizing the Sound? what? I thought this post is very interesting. Sound itself can be an "art" as music (for example), but I have never thought sound can be a form of art when visualized.

It's incredible what the camera has the ability to capture. I think this is a great example of how science and art can overlap.
