Something Different: Sharing Art and Experience

I keep meaning to get back to this, but haven’t. About six months back, I was introduced to an ‘art’ site:

• Better Kaul Vakil
  Using screens to bring us off the screen.
  Lets make art together.

It’s — no, you’re better off checking it out yourself.

You’ll find a small but varied set of pictures/paintings, videos, and an introduction to camera lucidia. That’s Latin for ‘light chamber/room’: a 19th-century gizmo that helped folks draw. Turns out there’s at least one way of using today’s tech and the 19th century principles to get similar results.

There. That’s pretty much all I’ve got to say about it today.

A big tip of the hat to Viral Vakil, for introducing me to this site, and for putting it together.

I’d say more, but seriously: check it out yourself.
