Deja Vue: Studio Space: Colour Grid 1000059

//Another 'bane of blogger' premonition...Maybe my studio has an incarnation in another dimension now//



Having just 'made' my space here in the studio - that is, positioned the things I currently have in mind to bring into this space - laid out across the wall, the first thing I noticed was that in photographing the space it has two distinct halves. Viewed from different angles different symmetries arise. Sitting on the sofa looking back gives another interesting perspective; from here I see the perfect positioning of my table under a square grid and a three petal whirligig fan. Familiar echoes from Clean Space (in which I constructed a whirligig windmill and flower petal structure after various complex pattern models combine with those shapes). Synchronicities are nice!











Then I decided to make a colour grid (with the app - i'd already made a couple on paper to 'position' and map out my interests) expressing the space I've made. This grid does not base its colours on physical colour representation. And it is in contrast to the actual space. Where the space is dense this is light, where the space is light this is dense. A creativity inversion as medium changes form. (Not unusual given the modelling I have tendency for.)



So I find this grid particularly interesting as it catches many subtleties with elements refelecting across dimensions of space, place, relationship and time. Inter and intra. What I bring into this space, what I seek to draw out of it.



Another (in between materials) space to think.







I made this colour grid at http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=51.171501,-115.562973 using http://twitter.com/gathererapp



Things I see here are:
My desk chair and studio wall


I notice:
Space to think is expressed differently in the 
physical and the virtual/digital realm


The colours in this grid are like:
Left and right, texture and space
