art in oil spills (or, the internet is (really really) neat)

art fag city caught my attention with this post tonight:

i’ve always been a weird kid. the kind who’d stop walking in a parking lot to observe the shimmer of a spot of oil, or purposely stomp through a puddle to make ripples in the residue interlaced with the muddy molecules. so i thought this post (complete with a great .gif on the site (you should really go check it out))  was pretty great. and, as all good blogs do, art fag city included a link to the site of the group that produced this product. the name of the studio is double triple (click right here to see their site (which is also wonderful)), and after browsing through the rest of their art, i think i am in love.

basically, the moral of this story (er, blog) is that the internet makes good art (as we’ve seen with our multimedia galleries in artp 170) and promotes good art. if you’re going to be on facebook for countless hours a day, you might as well have another tab open where you’re hopping from art blog to art blog.
