Insanity is... by teucer

September 4th, 2009 12:28 AM

INSTRUCTIONS: Insanity is doing the same thing twice and expecting the same result.

Document (or create) an example of beautiful chaos governed by natural laws.

The coulage is a form of aleatoric sculpture beloved of the Surrealists.

Hello there! I am a lead praxis photo!
Step 1.
Step 2.
Step 3
Step 4.
Step 5.
And the chaos begins.
Close-up
Natural laws.
Dripping
Lather, rinse, repeat.
Emptying the candle.
You can do it again.
Coulage is a chaotic form.
Sometimes you get something pretty.
Sometimes, you don't.
This one looks like a pile of clams.
If ceromancy works, though, I'm in trouble.

I was hoping to get a version of it that didn't have so much light, but when I had the flash off it came out blurry despite me using a tripod.

But yeah, I like this pic better than the last one.

Very pretty. I will now go learn more about this and what the surrealists did with it. Thank you.
