Some comments = Summary opinion is the 'exhibition' is heavy on eye
candy and light on content. I'm a graphic artist with a computer gaming
company and I fancy myself a transhumanists too so I can comment on both
sides of the coin.
>From an technical art standpoint there was nothing there that you cant
find in an AOL graphics forum. No epiphany engines. The rendering work
was mediocre. It was good for an amateur. Im assuming Sandberg is not a
formally trained graphic artist. Several illumination problems,
questionable material and vector calls. But nothing requiring
crucifixion. :-)
I havent figured out the whole 'transhuman art' concept yet so its hard
for me to judge whether Sandberg succeeded. I doubt anything I saw would
inspire someone to change their views about transhumanism. Then again
you can say that about everything Ive seen that is called transhuman or
extropian art. Anyway.....
