The artistic experiment weaves architecture, biology, network analysis and social behaviour into questions of sharing, communicating and building. The artist presents this box container with carbon fibre and spider silk webbed inside interior so that we the viewer can observe from the outside. The artist’s continuous interest in models of cohabitation, biodiversity, adaptability and hybridity led him further to experiments with spiders growing their homes in an artificial environment.Ĭarina (2013) consists of an illuminated, translucent cube that host unusual webs built by these different species of spiders. As individuals build on top of the original spider’s creation, Saraceno and his team rotate the boxes, inducing disoriented new patterns. Then, they replace that spider with a colony of social spiders. First, he and his team put a solitary spider into a transparent cube where it will spin a web. The webs take form in his laboratory in the rainforests of Ecuador, where they can find several social spider species, ones that live together in large groups. The ongoing research project of Saraceno started as an investigation of these universal patterns. The artist’s fascination with cobwebs arises from applying the image of a spider web in astrophysics where it is used to represent galaxy formations. Tomás Saraceno’s research and work with spider webs originates from his interest in astrophysics, as explained previously, he considers that each of these translucent boxes represents an entire universe to him.
With this in mind, the work Carina, (2013) proudly part by the Adrastus Collection, we can analyze the fascination the artist has with not only spiderwebs but also the dimensionality the universe has with art. Saraceno’s key interests lie in the scientific observation of environmental, biological and physical systems and their poetic correlation to human perception and ideas about the living environment. “When cosmologists or astro-physicians were trying to explain how the universe formed, the way they were trying to describe it was through this type of cosmic webs and the geometrical analogy was a tridimensional spiderweb,” he has explained in the past. Hidden within many of Tomás Saraceno’s grand visions of cloud cities, climbable structures, and solar balloons, a single thread runs through his fascinating worlds: spiderwebs.

Replaced Windows startup method after discovering that Microsoft has dropped support for Java.Acrylic, carbon fibre, spidersilk, Dedolight 24V 150W, Muraro tripod.Arachnophilia is now structured around XHTML and it can help you convert your pages from HTML to XHTML. XHTML is internally consistent in a way that HTML cannot be, and it greatly simplifies the task of Web page design and maintenance. Specifically, HTML Beautify now works reliably and HTML Validate - a tool for finding and correcting structural errors, a feature not seen since Arachnophilia 4.0 - is back and works very well. In the new Arachnophilia version, the best of those features has been restored. In past Arachnophilia versions, certain features had to be dropped because they couldn't coexist with the internal ambiguities and inconsistencies of straight HTML. Elsewhere in these directions, and in Arachnophilia's menus and prompts, the term HTML appears, but remember that this is simply a syntactical convenience - it refers to XHTML.Įarlier Arachnophilia difficulties with beautifying and formatting HTML, and analyzing Web pages for tag errors, have been corrected in this version.
By the way, this is the correct approach to dealing with problems that seem insurmountable - to overcome various problems that might come up, simply delete (user home directory)/.Arachnophilia and run Arachnophilia again.Īrachnophilia has become an XHTML workshop.Ī new version of HTML has appeared, named "XHTML," that has so many advantages over HTML that Arachnophilia has been completely reworked to take advantage of it.

Specifically, the changes in this version are so far-reaching - including a rewrite of most of the macro set and the documentation - that it is necessary to delete the Arachnophilia user directory to realize the full benefit of the changes. Arachnophilia 5 represents one of those departure points in the history of this program, points at which it is necessary to make a fresh start.
