"Sam Chirnside (previously) is an Australian born graphic artist, working between New York City and Melbourne.Informed by the notion of altered states of consciousness, Sam’s work is an exercise in contradictions of order and incomprehension. Collage elements, oil-like pastel distortions optical illusions and esoteric iconography contrast with a balanced composition. In combination with an evident interest in ancient civilizations and sacred geometry (a discipline that popularises proof of cosmic significance, divine design intervention and above all, order) the resultant body of work is as close to a disorientation of the senses as design can achieve – and that is just how he likes it."










"Mark Tansey (Artsy) created collages serve as studies for large, monochromatic oil paintings of figures and landscapes, whose precise photographic quality is achieved by applying gesso and then washing, brushing, and scraping paint into it. He uses ultramarine blue, a color that combines the depth and complexities of black with the lightness and transparency of blue, and which imparts the historicizing feel of blueprint." via





"Thibault Delhom (Behance, Instagram) finds interesting ways to infuse his portraits with a creative edge, whether it’s by digitally adding lines and graphics or by using surreal props like an anatomically correct hand. The colour scheme is made up of predominately darker tonalities and he achieves a high level of contrast which is great to see. High quality stuff indeed." via

"Brooklyn-based experimental studio Snarkitecture is bringing the ocean indoors, transforming water and waves into nearly one million recyclable translucent plastic balls. Covering 10,000 square feet of the National Building Museum in Washington D.C., the interactive installation titled “The BEACH” will include white beach chairs and umbrellas to simulate seaside vibes, while maintaining the monochrome feel that Snarkitecture has become known for." writes Colossal. You might remember one London studio did it first but in a smaller room.

"New York based artist Daniel Arsham (Instagram) straddles the line between art, architecture and performance. Architecture is a prevalent subject throughout his work; environments with eroded walls and stairs going nowhere, landscapes where nature overrides structures, and a general sense of playfulness within existing architecture. Arsham makes architecture do things it is not supposed to do, mining everyday experience for opportunities to confuse and confound our expectations of space and form. Simple yet paradoxical gestures dominate his sculptural work: a façade that appears to billow in the wind, a figure wrapped up in the surface of a wall, a contemporary object cast in volcanic ash as if it was found on some future archeological site."

Last month, Google revealed that it uses its own artificial intelligence program, known as Artificial Neural Networks, to classify and sort its images.
The technology basically works by spotting patterns in pictures in order to identify them - and it's already being used in Google's new photos app to recognise faces and animals. You can follow #deepdream for more weirdness
