Cosmic Park Bench

Dyson-Nihei Megasphere Collapse

3072 × 3072 .jpg

– To consider q super collapsing Dyson / Nihei megasphere, over a dimensional parsec in diameter, currently balanced on the end of a safety pin – an awesome sight to behold.

Due to recent internal political changes in upper middle management, official neo scientific archive records of Loftleader Industries will now show the collapse, not of the megasphere itself but rather the collapse of sphere into another dimension with ontologically terminal / fatally exciting ramifications and deep neuro-aesthetic resonance
– Freelance Amateur Postmodern Internet Theorist Robert What

Note: All subsequent blame! for this virtual event has now media blue shifted to BSZ Research & Development Hypercorporation

Electron Cavern

1728 × 3072 .jpg

Deep in the electron cavern we dived for lost archaeological information regarding the missing scrolls. Due to the intense existential pressure our descent is taking longer than expected. There are whole bodies of liquid data down here, vast as any ocean.

Something beautiful and unseen keeps pace with us – fundamentally challenging our perceptions as it moves to the loose rhythmic beat of our strange dreams.

Existential Pizza

3072 × 3072 .jpg

When no actual slice seems available, but rather you feel immediately sliced by its angular, semiotic patterning and formation.

—

Galaxy Map

3072 × 1728 .jpg

Visionary psychedelic projection taken from star map tattoos of passing Roy Batty close down at help currently helping ‘Resarc’ Henry Swanson with his Project Research and Development.

Heat Death

3072 × 1728 .jpg

When the old joker and young circus trapeze artist got together that one star crossed evening – etching out their unlikely chemical destiny together on a discrete, torn section of circus tent.

—

Homage To Kandinsky

4608 × 4608 .jpg

Resarc Robert What: in which painter Wassily goes shopping in town, and finds some old jazz records;

He strolls back home, playing this vinyl in the background while he sips glasses of freshly squeezed juice oranges plucked from his orchard that same bright summer morning.

Wassisy soon nods off; dreams of strange cartoon creatures appear in the wallpaper with laughing happy faces.

Ideal / Idealized price for such a concept: £5M

—

Icelandic Blood Giants

3072 × 1728 .jpg

To consider sleeping blood giants of ancient future Iceland, now rapidly awakening due to anthropocentric climate change.

—

Lady Sumiko Tree Transforms

Imaginary Shoji print – 3702 × 6390 .jpg

Resarc Robert What: While hiding from her captors in the ancient swamps to the East, Lady Sumiko calmly recites ancient spell of her family’s ninja clan, enabling her to turn into an entangling tree.

Tearing their clothes on its sharp branches, repeatedly tripping over its roots to fall into the stinking mud, her cruel pursuers soon retreat back to the safety of their evil lords’ dark conspiratorial fortress.

Ideal / Idealized Price for such a concept: £2.5M

—

Long Summer March

5048 × 3437 .jpg

In which it was another long weary march through smoking black kettle summer – through broken backwater foothills, angry snarling overcast projections of your Research Group holding sway over petrified romantic hearts, bursting with scintillating heat and nonlinear emotional turbulence.

—

Francis Dons A Rudeboy

4405 × 6390 .jpg

Francis dons a Rudeboy; Mary meanwhile dips her remaining steel toes in the slow, steady pulse of warm Reggae bacon soup.

Francis sees her oblique attempt at an inner smile and bails – all synthetic morality spent with dripping hands of plastic anxiety while New York graffities and gratifies, their remaining perceptual interests discovered centuries later on a foundational obelisk once belonging to a dead Cheech Wizard, eyeball high with heavily razored young bloods while artisan hipsters blanche at the aesthetic imposition.

Ideal / Idealized Price for such a Concept: £5M

Authentic North American Hunting Blanket

3072 × 1728 .jpg

Rest assured this is completely authentic – as verified by slowly nodding experts with an acute unspoken history of unrestrained cultural violence; another hopelessly convoluted statement on the artificial natures of representation / symbolism.

Optical Color Study

To rest at noon hour meditate on love’s ecstasy
To return home at eventide with gratitude
Then to sleep with prayer for beloved in my heart song of praise upon my lips
– From: On Love by Kahlil Gibran

7189 × 3349 .jpg

Example Artist Statement via Freelance Theorist Robert What

Soft tonal platelets – eye agate style, hypotrochoid like spheres suspended horizontally in quiet z_plane;

Ever widening concentric squared spheres of gentle organic influence – oddly muted palate of strange wild flowers raised to the cool spring air.

For ‘ABC’ – the only person who thought I was ever worth a damn; to feel with rotating globular existence, now alive with soft fresh color blooms.

Ideal / Idealized Price for such a Concept: £5.5M

Self Dimensional Portrait

3072 × 1728 .jpg

Resarc Robert What: A scenario with delicate shadings, finely grained textures – a lightly fishy demeanor once labelled “Mermaid’s Sea Clock”;

Nothing too special or interesting, it continued to mutate under subsequent artistic experimentation through arbitrary idle accident – another lion faced dimension began showing through. It has now little sadly earned its current title “Self Dimensional Portrait.”

An impossibly ancient galaxy sized deep space sea astrolabe now manifests as a swirling cosmic meta-ego of a one time professional miserabalist. It also somehow potentially serves as a deliberately overt statement of advanced philosophical anti fascist-nihilism.

—

Institute Brochure

3072 × 2731 .jpg

Alternative to alternative reality games, which have now long been default mode of alleged accumulation of knowledge here in the lower 4th Sector Prime.

—

Topological Obscurities

3072 × 1728 .jpg

Crossing by day across an elaborately signalled texture-scape while experiencing fractally conflicting emotional states of alternating comfort and warm bemusement.

—

Zen Gardens By Mail

3072 × 1728 .jpg

To watch it manifest, just add spring water ashes of thankfully long dead and useless dreams of Japan.

—

The (Z) Perfect Postmodern Image

3733 × 3349 .jpg

Resarcher Robert What: to consider the mere notion of the/a perfect postmodern image – some idealized conceptual simulacrum, faded dreamy virtuality or supreme utopia of image somehow perfectly encapsulating the/a hyperreal Weltgeist;

Side tilted verticality of Geotraumatic volcanic eruption at information sea points to disconcerting soft blue organic strangeness – permanently out of focus state of extreme modern being, while mad virtual gulls spin wheel overhead on an imaginary album cover mindset, direct from the theoretical ‘Deep Invader Beyond’.

Ideal / Idealized Price for such a Concept: £8M
