Blog entry by Ambrea Kuhn, The Leonardo's Fall 2009 Intern
Digital plant from Daniel Brown's series, "Flowers."
"The Network," dissects traces of information we leave behind after using social networks. Programers developed a section that visualizes information, such as how bloggers are feeling based upon what they say in their blogs. "Code," looks at the digital coding we use to program. Artist Daniel Brown uses mathematics to generate a fluid growth of digital images that mimics plants found in nature. Much like "Ghost Interruptions," the "Interactivity" exhibit allows visitors to interact with different works. One of the featured exhibits is the Opto-Isolator, developed by Golan Levin, which is a robotic eye that follows the viewer's eye motions.
"Digital Designs Sensations" is an exhibit that goes alongside "Decode." It features early computer-generated designs, plotter drawings, screen prints and Ink Jet prints of art. You can also find art pieces scattered outside of the museum. The exhibition opens Dec. 8 and runs until April 11. If you can't catch a plane to London anytime soon the V&A will feature some of the exhibits online for you to check out!
