Magazine recommended by Sandra Gael from México, collaborator for Arttextum’s Replicación
Artforum is an international monthly magazine specializing in contemporary art. Artforum was founded in 1962 in San Francisco by John P. Irwin, Jr. The next publisher/owner Charles Cowles moved the magazine to Los Angeles in 1965 before finally settling it in New York City in 1967, where it maintains offices today. The move to New York also encompassed a shift in the style of work championed by the magazine, moving away from California style art to Late modernism, then the leading style of art in New York City. The departure of Philip Leider as editor-in-chief in 1971; and the tenure of John Coplans as the new editor-in-chief roughly coincided with a shift towards more fashionable trends and away from Late modernism. A focus on Minimal Art, Conceptual Art, Body art, Land art and Performance art provided a platform for artists such as Robert Smithson, Donald Judd, Sol LeWitt and others. In 1980 after opening his own gallery in New York City Charles Cowles divested himself of the magazine.

In the world of design, Fischinger is a towering figure, especially in the areas of motion graphics and animation. He is best known for his ability to combine impeccably synchronized abstract visuals with musical accompaniment, each frame carefully drawn or photographed by hand. A master of motion and color, Fischinger spent months — sometimes years — planning and handcrafting his animations.

Although mostly known for his films, Fischinger was also a prolific painter, creating numerous works that capture the dramatic movement and feeling of his films within a single frame. Unsatisfied with traditional media, he also invented a contraption, the Lumigraph, for generating fantastic chromatic displays with hand movements — a sort of optical painting in motion and a precursor to the interactive media and multi-touch games of today.
Even with the advanced technology that now exists, emulating Fischinger’s work is an impossible task. His colors and motion are so carefully planned yet naturally playful, his timing so precise yet human. So today’s Doodle aims to pay homage to him, while allowing you to compose your own visual music. I hope it inspires you to seek out the magic of Fischinger for yourself.

Special thanks to Angie Fischinger, Oskar’s youngest child, who played an integral role in making this project possible. Below, she shares some thoughts about her father’s work and life:
My parents were German immigrants. They were forced to leave Germany in 1936 when it became clear that my father could not pursue his work as a filmmaker there (avant-garde was considered degenerate by Hitler and his administration). But many people who had already seen his films recognized his greatness. He received an offer to work at MGM and stayed in Hollywood after the war.
My father was incredibly dedicated to his art — some even called him stubborn. His passion and honesty were part of his brilliance, but they could also make him a bit difficult to work with. Sometimes our family struggled financially as a result, so everybody pitched in — the kids got paper routes or did babysitting. We were raised in a healthy, hard-working environment. We were happy, intellectually stimulated, and dedicated to education. Thanks to my family’s support and encouragement, I graduated from San Jose State and taught in the public school system for 30 years.
I feel incredibly proud of my family and am delighted to be the daughter of Oskar and Elfriede Fischinger. It means so much to me to see this celebration of my father’s art. It’s wonderful to know that his work, which has been steadily praised since the 1920s, will continue to receive worldwide recognition.

El arquitecto croata Nikola Bašić creó un impresionante órgano marino que traduce las olas del mar en una relajante música.
‘Morse Orgulje’, lo que se puede traducir como ‘órgano majestuoso’, fue diseñado por este arquitecto en 2005. Es la estrella indiscutible de la ciudad de Zadar en Croacia. Un espectáculo increíble. Los canales de este órgano conectan 35 tubos, cada uno conectado a su vez a diferentes cadenas musicales. Así obtiene de forma natural los sonidos. Las notas que desprende son puramente aleatorias, dependen de como las olas imparten contra el órgano.
Con este diseño, el arquitecto croata ganó el premio ex aequo de la cuarta edición del Premio Europeo del Espacio Público Urbano.
Inspirado en un pequeño instrumento griego de nombre hydraulis, y con el antecedente de la creación del Wave Organ en la ciudad de San Francisco en 1986, este órgano de mar posee 70 metros de largo, fabricado en su totalidad de hormigón y con unos escalones en mármol.
Sus 35 tubos generan de forma precisa una nota distinta provocada con el movimiento de las olas y la energía del viento. Cada tubo atraviesa la estructura y hace contacto con el mar Adriático, mientras que en la parte de arriba veremos pequeños orificios, que en conjunto crean una melodía sorprendente e ideal para perder la vista en el horizonte, o simplemente un placer para nuestros sentidos.
Aquí puedes ver y oir este impresionante instrumento-escultura:
y sí sólo quieres oír su sonido…

Entrevista de Alicia Ninou a Eva Julián, música, compositora y sonidista especializada en Bioacústica y en la aplicación terapéutica de sonido natural. Desde 1985 investiga sobre la incidencia del sonido en los seres vivos, realizando grabaciones por variados lugares naturales del planeta, diseña y personaliza ambientes sonoros terapéuticos para hospitales, centros médicos especializados, para personas en procesos vitales y para colectivos con necesidades especificas.
Sonidoyvida es el resultado de más de 27 años de investigación en bioacústica y en la comprobación de las propiedades terapéuticas y sagradas que poseen los sonidos que emite la tierra y todos los seres de la naturaleza. Eva Julián ha observado que estos sonidos son capaces de mantener el equilibrio vital de los seres vivos y reconducirlos a un estado de conciencia en armonía con la tierra y con el cosmos.
Tráeme un frasco pa’ guardá
La sangre que se derrama de mi corazón
Tráeme un frasco pa’ guardá
La sangre que se derrama de mi corazón
Y tráeme agua con oxígeno, muy lento
Pa’ nunca más dejá de respirá, por dentro
Y tráeme un cuerpo
Un cuerpo un cuerpo que este ya no va más
Y tráeme un cuerpo
Un cuerpo un cuerpo que este ya no va más
Desesperadamente sueño y despierto que
Con tu calor y tu energía me alimento, siento
Que si probara un poco más de esto
Por la mañana ya no me despierto
Mis ojos, respiración a tus ojos
Le dicen que existen, los veo de reojo
Yo solamente quiero conocerte
Y por la noche, las manos te cojo
Yo sólo pido un espacio pa’ respirá
Porque si te tengo cerca puedo volá
Y es que no quiero ponerme a pensá
Sólo respiro y te digo la verdad
Mis sentimientos es un sentimiento
Lo digo aprobación de tu consentimiento
No te pregunto solo te cuento
A mi no me molesta parar este sentimiento
Yo sólo pido un espacio pa’ respirá
Yo sólo pido un espacio pa’ respirá
Yo sólo pido un espacio pa’ respirá
Pa’ respirar, pa’ respirar, pa’ respirar
Por que no quiero ponerme a pensar
Solo respiro y te digo la verdad
Y es que no quiero ponerme a pensar
Solo respiro y te digo la verdad
Y es que no quiero ponerme a pensar
Solo respiro y te digo la verdad
Y es que no quiero ponerme a pensar
Solo respiro y te digo la verdad

The Four Seasons (Italian: Le quattro stagioni) is a group of four violin concerti by Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi, each of which gives a musical expression to a season of the year. They were written about 1723 and were published in 1725 in Amsterdam, together with eight additional violin concerti, as Il cimento dell’armonia e dell’inventione (“The Contest Between Harmony and Invention”).
The Four Seasons is the best known of Vivaldi’s works. Unusually for the time, Vivaldi published the concerti with accompanying poems (possibly written by Vivaldi himself) that elucidated what it was about those seasons that his music was intended to evoke. It provides one of the earliest and most-detailed examples of what was later called program music—music with a narrative element.
Vivaldi took great pains to relate his music to the texts of the poems, translating the poetic lines themselves directly into the music on the page. In the middle section of the Spring concerto, where the goatherd sleeps, his barking dog can be marked in the viola section. Other natural occurrences are similarly evoked. Vivaldi separated each concerto into three movements, fast-slow-fast, and likewise each linked sonnet into three sections.

This is an ongoing attempt at an algorithmically-generated, readability-adjusted scatter-plot of the musical genre-space, based on data tracked and analyzed for 1387 genres by The Echo Nest. The calibration is fuzzy, but in general down is more organic, up is more mechanical and electric; left is denser and more atmospheric, right is spikier and bouncier.
