I am currently reading a monster of a book. At 802 pages, Steven Pinker’s Better Angels of Our Nature, leaves even a voracious reader like myself a little winded. Pinker’s argument is that the world has become less and less violent over time, so much so that we now live in what is the most peaceful period of human history ever.

We think of our mobile phones as tools. They are products designed to enhance our communication as well as to entertain us with their games and other fun features. They’re functional and sometimes they’re fun … but could they also be a form of art? A number of artists around the globe have certainly thought so. They have created photography, sculptures and mixed media collages with the mobile phone as the center of the piece. Take a look at the following 12 images and see if they get you thinking about your phone in a new kind of light:

Clear, Projection and Screen; 3 words that you may never have thought you would see in the same sentence. However clear projection screens, holographic projection rigid screens, holoscreens and transparent rear projection film are now super popular and gaining momentum in many different vertical markets; most people when this display concept is mentioned think of the movie Minority Report with Tom Cruise and wonder if that was really real or just a Hollywood Masterpiece. We have good news for you – not only is it possible but it is more affordable than ever. Clickhttp://vimeo.com/38257650

I spotted this in our science laboratory at college a while ago and was recently compelled to go and get it for reference for a student project. I also took the opportunity of getting a large high-resolution image too. It is a scientific wall chart for school and college use from (at a guess) the late 1940′s/early 1950′s, measures 93cm (36.5″) high x 48cm (19″) wide and is canvas backed: Delete the scoop?

Founded by Professor Lizbeth Goodman in 1992 while at the BBC and Open University, where research was informing the new field of interactive learning models for students at a distance, SMARTlab’s research team and its methods have evolved through four institutions, including the University of Surrey, Central Saint Martins, University of East London and University College Dublin (UCD). SMARTlab’s core team has graduated over 30 practice-based PhDs in that time, and the institute has achieved major international status Delete the scoop?

Born in Bergen, Norway, Christopher Conte was raised and currently lives in New York. After earning a Bachelors Degree in Fine Art (BFA) from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, he began working in the prosthetics field making artificial limbs for amputees which he did for 16 years as a Certified Prosthetist.
Throughout his time in the field, Chris worked in obscurity creating biomechanical sculptures which reflected his love for biomechanics, anatomy and robotics. In June 2008, he left the field to begin his career as a full-time artist. Delete the scoop?
