Baptiste Debombourg’s installation Aerial appears to be an act of destruction frozen in time.

Debombourg on his work:

Destruction, like construction, is a human expression and a paradox of life because it is can be both good and evil. My personal point of view is that destruction is inevitably linked to repair.

If you think snowflakes are pretty, you really should watch this video: LIQUID TIME (by Tatiana Plakhova)

Selections from Flow Theory, a project by Tatiana Plakhova.

Plakhova described her process to Sublimotion:

My technique is quite simple, it’s just lines and dots. All the images are “handmade” vectors, it’s not a result of processing or fractals. I like mathematical art, but when it’s made by a machine, it almost never looks alive.

When asked about her inspiration:

It depends on the mood and the theme I want to realize. The projects that remind stars were about forms, just one form morphing into another. Before making a biological project, I collected thousands of microscopy photos and botanical images, to feel it from the inside. Folk complexity originated in my love of the oriental and folk art beauty, and understanding, that almost every folk art is based on similar forms, it’s just arranged in different ways. So in spite of the separation of the different folk arts, there are united forms, and you can see in them something Indian, Arabic or Osman, Russian and so on.

A beautiful reminder that physics is everywhere, even in soap You’re looking at a figure from a paper titled “Visualization of flow patterns past various objects in two-dimensional flow using soap film,” published in the latest issue of Physics of Fluids.

The Flow (by MRK) looks at the supervening layers of reality that we can observe, from quarks to nucleons to atoms and beyond. The deeper we go into the foundations of reality the more it loses its form, eventually becoming a pure mathematical conception. Layer upon layer the flow builds new codes that create new codes, each version computing a new, more complex state based on the previous one.
