About Degrees from the gallery’s website-

In this exhibition, we unravel the layers of meaning behind ‘Degrees’. From the nuanced shades of truth that shape our perceptions to the tangible degrees of temperature that influence our environment, the exhibition creates a dynamic dialogue between different dimensions of this concept.

Situated in a pivotal battleground state, the exhibition also contemplates the intricate relationship between degrees and the pressing issue of global warming. Delving into the political discourse, we examine how degrees of belief and denial intersect, particularly in the context of climate change debates.

Furthermore, the exhibition prompts contemplation on the notion of an art degree. What does it signify? How does it define one’s creative journey? These questions guide us through an exploration of artistic qualifications and the degrees of expertise they represent.

A journey through art history reveals the connection between degrees and lines, as we delve into the associations between angles, perspectives, and the progression of artistic movements. This collection invites you to ponder how degrees of inclination can shape artistic expression and historical narratives.

Join us in this immersive exhibition, where degrees of interpretation converge, offering a multi-dimensional encounter with the concept of ‘Degrees’.

Tomorrow (10/26/23) from 6-9pm is the last chance to see the show.

Jay’s Journal of Anomalies

Ricky Jay

Farrar, Straus and Giroux 2001

I actually met Ricky Jay once. At the time—this was in 2008—my friend was working on the UFC tv show, and he invited me to watch the Ultimate Fighter finale which was being filmed at the Palms Casino in Vegas. So we’re there in the food court area having something to eat after the fight, and who should walk in and grab a table near us but the unmistakable Mr Jay. Now this was a bit odd, because I happen to know that he was banned from playing cards in casinos because his slight-of-hand was just that good. However, the David Mamet film, Redbelt, about an MMA fighter and in which Jay had a role, had recently been released, so I imagine he was also there taking in the fight. Anyway, I really wanted to meet him and let him know how much I admired his books. So I screwed up my courage, approached him, and introduced myself. After a few awkward compliments from me, I then sheepishly asked for an autograph, but the only piece of paper I had on me was my ticket for the fight. So he graciously signed that. I’m looking at it right now as I write this—it’s dated June 21st, 2008 and on the back is Jay’s signature, written in faded ballpoint. It’s one of the very few autographs I have ever asked for, and the only one I still have.

BlackBerry

BlackBerry    [trailer]

The story of the meteoric rise and catastrophic demise of the world's first smartphone.

An entertaining watch. It probably took a lot of liberties, but it's easy to imagine that this is more or less exactly how the company started. I do remember some of the events depicted in the film.

The three lead characters are so vastly different. Some people were probably annoyed by them. But I found it amusing the way they interacted with each other.

All three the actors that portray them give memorable performances. Jay Baruchel was difficult to recognise with that hair.

SHINE Mural Festival turns campus into canvas

A view of Fluid Structures from the University Student Center.

This year the SHINE Mural Festival is shining on the University of South Florida St. Petersburg campus. At the intersection of Second Street and Sixth Avenue South you can now find the campus’s latest public artwork titled “Fluid Structures.”

The SHINE festival has been keeping St. Petersburg vibrant since 2015. It is produced by the St. Petersburg Arts Alliance with the mission of “revitalizing areas, inspiring dialogue, and uniting our community.” This year visiting graphic arts Professor Jay Giroux and a team of eight students and two of Giroux’s team members were a part of it. On Oct. 14 you could find the group hard at work stenciling, priming and painting the road outside of the University Student Center.

One of the participating students is RJ Martin, an architecture major who helped out on the project. “It’s fun planning…I cut the stencils for it. It’s a good feeling to be able to point out to people, ‘Hey I worked on that,’” Martin said in a USF Newsroom video.

The oxymoronic title “Fluid Structures” is appropriate for the work’s modernist motif which includes abstract geometric and curvaceous shapes in green, orange, red and white. Giroux explains that these big shapes are simple and easy on the eyes.

“A lot of direction for all these street murals, as far as the way that we take, it is built with efficiency, so everything’s kinda gotta be on a grid, everythings gotta be relatively simple to not only draw out but paint.”

Giroux also points out that an added benefit of the artwork is that it is traffic calming. “Not only is it a beautiful mural but it will help calm traffic and prevent any kind of pedestrian accidents.”

“Fluid Structures” will now join the other campus murals that can be found on the Harbor Hall and Piano buildings.
