The MOSAIC OF ART radio show explores the making and distribution of myriad varieties of visual art by talking with curators, historians, dealers, publishers, collectors and artists of all stripes -- about their creative processes. If this sounds like a conversation you would enjoy, tune in to www.MosaicOfArt.com for the show's 9th episode on Sunday from 3-4 p.m. EST. I hope you'll bring a drink with you and tune in. And why not register so you can join the chat room! Ken Knowlton is one of the pioneers of computer-based art. Hear the story of the passion behind the mathematics and the mathematics within the art. Ken says that he's "been there, done that": he has been a farmhand, student, teacher, advisor, speaker, reader, mathematician, physicist, electron microscopist, computer scientist, chimes player, mountain climber, researcher, inventor, author, artist, critic, son, sibling, father, husband, grandfather, peace and civil rights activist, agnostic, retiree, liberal, cynic and realistic pessimist. Retired from scientific/technical agitation, he is trying to spend the final quarter of his life doing no harm: writing essays and memoirs, and using his own computer-assisted methods for planning his artwork, most of which are mosaic portraits. During recent months he's been actively involved in development and refinement of a puzzle game that's currently on the market in Japan. His Jigazo puzzle may find its way to the U.S. market next year. Stay tuned! EXTRA EXTRA! Joining us LIVE is NANCIE MILLS PIPGRASS to preview MOSAIC ART NOW - Available! - and provide updates on her blog -- esp the enormous Hanoi mosaic mural. And who knows what else we may discuss? Feel free to call in 646.721.9843
