We’re hiring two positionsβ€”a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Studio Art position and a sculpture lab tech who often works in our galleries so you get to learn about artworks like this 2023 installation by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer.When Owen Mundy and I took positions at Davidson in 2016 after about 10 years at Florida State University, it was a smart decision. @davidsoncollege gives us both curricular flexibility and professional support to keep up with the times. The students are extraordinary.If you have any questions, please email the search chair Tyler Starr at tystarr@davidson.edu.Links to the calls in my bio. Asst Prof due November 1! I’d try to get the sculpture lab tech in a week earlier by midnight Sunday, October 19, an unofficial deadline, but when they’ll start a review.#academicpositions, #davidsoncollege, #sculpture, #sculptureartist, #spatialpractice, #3dart, #3dprint, #sculpturedepartment, #mfaView all comments

Thrilled to hear from you, Neilβ€”didn't realize you were on this site. Pink Trombone is a piece of pure genius. I'll be giving my simplified version to students for creative-coding design experiments (puppeteering, face-tracking UI, etc.) and will be sure to share the results with you!

We present a simplified, p5.js version of the vocal tract synthesizer from Neil Thapen's popular Pink Trombone, adapted for use in a creative coding assignment concerned with interaction design and absurd puppeteering.

It's a good point. In Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Thai (and some dialects of Greek, Turkish, Persian, and Arabic), "B" and "V" are pronounced identically.

Thank you. I think porting/preserving someone's code is one of the highest forms of praise. JT's "Textension" piece was a bit of brilliance that needs to be rescued in full.
