There's An Architectural Solution To Every Mathematical Problem
Toronto's Crescent School celebrates the arts every spring with their one-evening-only event LUNA. For this year's iteration, LUNA Orbit, which took place two days ago, I presented my project There's An Architectural Solution To Every Mathematical Problem. The highlight of the project is a site-specific floor installation of tape drawing, which unintentionally but aptly reminds you of Sol LeWitt's sculptures.
Sorry for the delay today. I tried to upload some videos of the installation but Blogger didn't let me. So I had to settle for some screen shots.

Bau-Xi Gallery has acquired another gallery space in Toronto. I got a chance to visit their new space recently - a beautiful space particularly good for showing large-scale work.

All By Myself ... Overnight Sensation
I just learned that the talented Eric Carmen passed away last month. With a segment borrowed from Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor, he created this very tasteful piece called All By Myself in 1975:

Before going solo, Carmen was part of the band Raspberries, with this incredible Overnight Sensation in 1974:
