Jackson Pollock is an artists who challenges all of art’s principle’s in terms of what is considered to be talented execution and content. His artwork is amazing to some and grotesque to others. Truly a, “love it or hate it” artist. His artwork of layered paint splatters rivals works of Da Vinci in terms of…

Overall, I thought the article had a lot of interesting ideas and facts of Jackson Pollock. For an example the article states, “He new the difference between a good gesture and a bad one.” I think this is very hard for artists to distinguish in their work, and for him to be able to do…

I found the article about Jackson Pollack very interesting. It was well detailed and was very well written. I like hearing pieces about artists and find what people have to say very fascinating. The only problem I had was the picture links. Either the article was kind of old or the links themselves were broken…

His lecture was probably the funnest I…

I thought the M.C. Schmidt lecture was very interesting and unique. I learned a lot about music concret such as the origin and the importance of timbre. The first piece he presented, I think it was called “Three Guitar,” was really cool especially since I couldn’t even tell he used guitars in it. It amazed…

I LOOOOOVVEDDD it. interesting, fun, the tracks sounded amazing! -Steph

I really liked the panel. I thought it was informative and entertaining at the same time. Mr. Schmidt was an interesting character and I enjoyed that he was so laid back for the lecture. I thought his explanation on Music Conoet (is that spelled right?) and Pierre Shafer was very informative and expanded my knowledge…

This video is quick but interesting nonetheless. I like how you can interact with it and how the lights flow with your hand movement and nothing else. The visuals are really good for this peace and has wavy like motions using lights.
