So, Earl W. Bascom was a western painter, printmaker, sculptor, and art teacher. But.....he did rodeo! He invented a lot of stuff for rodeo that I'm pretty sure people still use today.
Bette Nesmith Graham - she was an artist in her spare time and wanted to pursue art but due to being a single mom after WWII, she went to work as a secretary, during that time. She was a bad typist and decided that there should be something for typing mistakes, like gesso for covering up painting mistakes. She went home and created white out.
I found a pretty cool dutch designer who makes furniture mainly, but he uses his creativity to make furniture out of different materials, he's designer for IKEA , and some German firms. The coolest collection to me is the smoke collection, he burns the furniture to black than coats it to preserve the color.he also does clay which was pretty interesting
Art being applied to the medical field to create natural facial prostetics:
"Thousands of men, women and children experience the absence or loss of facial tissues involving the eye, the orbit, the nose, or the ear. Yet hundreds of them from the United States and around the world now confidently wear facial prosthetics created by MAP anaplastologists as they go about their normal daily lives. The confidence that people enjoy from knowing their facial prosthesis is secure and virtually undetectable is the greatest gift we can offer, and it extends to those who receive the same care and precision in the making of their finger, hand or other aesthetic prosthesis. This is a goal we have dedicated our talent, our clinical training and our facilities to full-time for over 3 cumulative decades as career facial anaplastologists."

There are many ways for artists to work in medical fields, doing tattoos for restoration and reconstructive purposes. They do tattoos for cosmetic things and even more for nipple restoration for breast cancer patients after surgery. They use pointillism to blend the scar tissue with their skin tones and to help with hair loss they tattoo strands of hair to help hide problem areas.
Samuel Morse was a portrait painter that created the first electric telegraph in the mid 1800's. It was called the Morse telegraph (where Morse code came from). This machine replaced the pony express, and was the one of the precursers to the telephone.
Yanko design is a modern design magazine where they publish the best ideas and designs from everywhere. Designs include industrial, interior, architecture, technology, fashion, and concepts. They are also big promoters of modern design that is more eco-friendly. Here is one example: http://www.yankodesign.com/2011/10/24/bulb-reinvented/
This doctor came up with many if not most of the techniques still used today in Vascular repairs (blood vessels, arteries, ect). The techniques used are originally from sewing embroidery.
The Tea Bowl "The printers create objects in three dimensions and are almost exclusively used for models and other temporary items. What Balistreri has developed is the powder and binder that will allow the creation of permanent art work, and possibly other objects including replacement bones, dental caps as well bricks and tiles."
The artist HA Schult began as a painter, but after the destructing effects of WWII he took the "rubble" he saw and created artwork from trash. Green and savvy. http://www.haschult.de/trash.html
Holly Fischer is an artist for medical and biological illustrations. She prepares artwork of surgical procedures,operations, and other medical related information.
Robert Rauschenberg is known for his "Combines" of the 1950s, where non-traditional materials and objects were employed in innovative combinations. He was both a painter and a sculptor, but he also worked with photography, printmaking, papermaking, and performance.
In 1966, Rauschenberg launched "Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.)" a non-profit organization, promoting collaborations between artists and engineers.
Because of Rauschenberg's organization, engineers and scientists came together to create groundbreaking performances that incorporated new technology such as video projection, wireless sound transmission, and Doppler sonar. Here, you can see the collaboration between artists and engineers to produce innovative works using emerging technologies.
I found this website that talks about many different connections that the arts has had on scientific and technological innovations. It says that the screen on your cell phone, television and computer screens "employ a combination of red, green, and blue dots from which all the different colors can be generated. That innovation was the collaboration of a series of painter-scientists (e.g., American physicist Ogden Rood and German Nobel laureate Wilhelm Ostwald) and post-impressionist artists such as Seurat." It goes on to say that "the first programmable device was invented by J. M. Jacquard to control the looms that made his tapestries and exactly the same technique was used to program the first computers."
Science can be used in warfare beyond the inflatable tank, in fact the invention of camouflage is rooted in art. Camouflage was invented by the American painter Abbot Thayer, who was unable to convince Teddy Roosevelt to use it in the Spanish American war. By WWI, however, painters such as the Vorticists in England and the Cubists in France were co-opted by their governments to design prints to protect troops, equipment, and planes.
An interdisciplinary program at the Palo Alto Research Center where they are pairing in residence artists with researchers to create innovations. This is a summary of a book printed by MIT describing the new program and its effects.
Dick Smith was a pioneer in makeup prosthetic in TV and movies, using multiple foam latex pieces instead of full mask prosthetic that made the actors be able to make more facial expressions, making the makeup appear more natural and realistic.
John Lee Love invented the portable pencil sharpener in which the shavings would stay inside the sharpener. His design is still used by many artists today.
Theo Jansen creates kinetic sculptors that are powered by wind. He combines art and engineering to create animal-like sculptures that function on a beach to convey artificial life within a natural setting.
Tanya Aguiniga created a program/organization that helps artisans marginalized communities whose craft traditions or livelihoods are at risk. This programs allows room for social change through the creation of craft. "Starting Artists Helping Artisans (AHA) will bring me closer to my lifelong goal, which is the marriage of my two loves: community work and craft" (Tanya Aguiniga).
The Guerrilla Girls have been fighting for equality within the arts for over two decades. With their sarcasm and wit they help bring to light how even in the arts freedom of expression is limited. Billboards, speaking engagements and plays the Guerrilla Girls help make the arts available to everyone.

ReplyDeleteA look back in time at artist and inventor Samuel B. Morris-
He was a portrait painter who invented the telegraph.
Remember him?
