Jonathan Schipper

"Attempt at an Invisible Sphere," a globe made from 215 cameras and screens, was our first introduction to Jonathan Schipper's work. When we had the chance to visit the Brooklyn-based artist in his studio recently, we got to check out more of the "mechanical paradoxes" that make up Schipper's ouevre and watch him tinker on his latest undertaking, an animatronic sculpture set in motion by a player piano reel of Slayer's "Raining Blood." The piece debuted in a group show that opened last Friday, 23 June 2006, called "Factitious" at Brooklyn's Pierogi Gallery, and will run through 31 July 2006.

Attempt at invisible sphere?. Two turkeys rubbing against each other saying 'fuck me now or lose me forever'? How stupid do you think people are coolhunting? You're either on drugs, or stupid or both. I'd hate to see a big company give you any money as it would all be wasted on stupid shit like this. You obviously want tubers reaction to a garbage video.

This is in the youtube spotlight? This goes to show that youtube is also run by idiots. Sorry for sounding critical, but I'm just being honest. This is why youtube sucks. That's the truth.

It's "YOU'RE" a waste of air. YOU + ARE = YOU'RE. Jesus fucking christ, when YOU'RE insulting someone on line, get the grammar correct.
