Aeolab has finally outgrown its current headquarters, so we’re moving to a new location near Downtown LA. Our office opens to the courtyard of a cozy building designed in 1950’s - imho, some of the nicest architecture California has to offer! We love our new space and looking forward to expand a bit soon with an intern or two, now that we have some extra room. Send us your resumes/portfolios if you are looking for a job this summer.

I was fortunate to be selected as a an artist for the Extending Creativity in Digital Media program at the Anderson Ranch Arts Center in Snowmass, Colorado. I spent the past two weeks in residence there, had a great time and got a lot of work done. Big strides in our Oscillator luminescent prints. But first: snow.

We’ve had a recent flurry of inquiries about our #1 internal project, DELO. It’s still in development (and sometimes languishes a bit as we work on other projects) and isn’t publicly available yet, but plans are afoot! We’ll keep posting progress here, but feel free to leave a comment or email us with questions, suggestions, etc.. and thanks for the interest and encouragement!

For those in LA, check out The Public School, an initiative of TELIC Arts Exchange, in which the public drives the curriculum. Anyone can propose, sign up for, and/or offer to teach classes. Although not explicitly mentioned on the site, the educational focus is meant to be within the general context of art.

It’s pretty cool to see what people have proposed so far. Technology is well represented with classes in ARM and PIC programming, computational graphics, and Java/JavaScript. On my interest list: grant writing, vacuum forming, digital textile printing, and Chinese pop music (among others).

Nik and I are both on the initial course-selection committe. It will be really interesting to see how the selection and implementation processes develop (in other words, how do we define that amorphous cloud shape in the diagram above?), and also how self-sustaining the program can be. “What do you want to learn?” is such a great question, but “What do you want to teach?” is even better, I think.

make sure you have your sound on before you hit play! :)

“First off, after 10.4.10 and the 1.1 MBP update, NVDANV50Hal was already loading! Is this normal? Was still only getting 1024×768 and 32MB or VRAM, but damn, that suprised me. Showed up as G84 Geforce. Then after modding NVinject and NVDVAN50Hal it would hang at the loginwindow. It did show up as a quadro FX 570m (wow), but it showed VRAM,totalsize=10000000, which surprised me. I had put in my 1024×1024x256 (256MB) in NVinject. Absolutely lock up. Lastly, I went and removed the 10…40 kexts and modded the Geforce kext (which some people apparently modded and others did not. I wasn’t sure as to why this needed to be done because it was an overlay (or so I thought)–something like 0×000010de;0000ffff, but I eliminated both and dropped my 0×040c10de. ”
