OBJECT AS ENERGY POINT

On View Friday, April 8–Sunday, July 24, 2016

Object as Energy Point is an evolving and growing piece which started in 1995 – it began with a 12 x 6 inch wooden box. Created by artist Andrew Deutsch, every object in the show is a loudspeaker, a transducer, or a metaphor for a speaker. It incorporates ceramic glazed elements as metaphors for "klangfarben" and their arrangement as "klangfarbenmelodie" (tone color and tone color melody).

The installation extends beyond a symphonic-sculptural speaker display to include videos or "Electro-dynamic Drawings". The projected visual content is generated by a process in which sound is the source for the image (this is known as audio reactive art). The result is a visual electronic landscape, generated by and inter-modulated with sound.

Connecting to the Community Through Design.

Professor Judy Livingston's junior-level Graphic Design Systems studio is currently working with Foodlink, the Rochester and Finger Lakes regional food hub. The project includes designing a new logo and a new visual identity system. As part of the project, the class designed a poster promoting the mission and vision of Foodlink. The poster project was shared with senior design students at Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey.

Design students presented their new Foodlink visual identity designs to Terra Keller, Chief of Staff, Foodlink. The visual identity systems include logos, packaging, website landing pages, brochures, and posters. The posters, currently on view in the School of Art and Design lobby, will also be exhibited at Rowan University in the Fall.
