Wishing for Peace Trees in Pasadena
from Out On The Stoop September 14, 2008
I picked up a copy of the Pasadena Weekly and Yoko Ono is on the cover. Styling at 70 something years of age. I'm curious but I take my time reading the paper. Thursday night I'm in bed and finally get a chance to read the article. Friday afternoon. I'm walking around, I'm not sure what to do with myself. I'm looking for an affordable sushi joint. I turn into the court yard and... This is the Windows Media Video Version This is the QuickTime Version Trees are filled with cards. All kinds of wishes. Some personal, some global and some practical as in "I wish for a hummer, (not the truck)." We all have our definitions of peace. Hey if giving a hummer to the right guy or girl on the planet will stop war, famine and overall stupidity I'm sure we could recruit volunteers for the cause. If only it was that simple. We've tried the intellectual approach. Maybe we have to get base level to achieve peace. Just a thought. Not necessarily a good one. Which is why you can't leave it to me to explain this, so her is Yoko talking about the original inspiration and 2007 installation with a little help from a beloved friend. For more information about Yoko Ono's Peace Project and the Wish Tree Installations around the worlds you can check out the following: Yoko Ono has a web site where you can get more information and download images and banner of Imagine Peace. If you want to participate but live no where near a wish tree you can send a postcard via snail mail. Laist noticed the trees long before I did. For more photos about the cards you can start with this Flickr search and then experiment to find more. If you are in the mood for a road trip to let's say Iceland, then you might want to look into staying at Videy Island.Oh, I never did find the Sushi joint. It was just as well. I was filled with the better side of human wishes, hopes and dreams.

Designing Minds: Serious Play (Part 4 of 4)
from popular posts - blip.tv (beta) August 15, 2008
Bio/DescriptionThe Art Center of Pasadena, California is linking its upcoming Art Center Design Conference with the launch of Wrap Magazine, the next incarnation of the Fish Wrap publication. The theme for this joint project is "Serious Play," a term which encompasses all the work done at the Art Center. In this episode of Designing Minds, students Saejean Oh and Kathryn McFarlane explain how they chose Benjamin Franklin as the subject of their Serious Play project. Rather than focus on his political work, they consider the curiosity and sense of humor which aided Franklin in all his endeavors. The illustrator and graphic designer create a visually arresting piece, the look of which they stumble upon accidentally - not unlike many of the greatest inventors.

The Art Center of Pasadena, California is linking its upcoming Art Center Design Conference with the launch of Wrap Magazine, the next incarnation of the Fish Wrap publication. The theme for this joint project is "Serious Play," a term which encompasses all the work done at the Art Center. In this episode of Designing Minds, student illustrator Kerry Hyatt and student graphic designer Paula Hansanugrum join together to create a project using iconic American imagery such as tv dinners, comic books, and the vintage game Operation. By choosing a main character who is a hypochondriac obsessed with advertised medications, their final piece holds a mirror up to modern life in America.
