Not entirely sure what to do with this, but It’s pretty awesome.
That’s a CT scan of a toy elephant. As explained on the about page:
In the summer of 2007, artist and medical student Satre Stuelke started the Radiology Art project. Dedicated to the deeper visualization of various objects that hold unique cultural importance in modern society, this project intends to plant a seed of scientific creativity in the minds of all those inclined to participate.
Seems like there must be some kind of GE collaboration thing we could do with this, just not sure quite what yet. Any thoughts?
This is really fascinating. I think medical instruments have tremendous power in the art realm, because of the “honesty” they possess with objects, and the unique perspective.
I found some of the videos like the McDonald’s chicken nuggets especially interesting. I can see an art exhibit that takes these radiology images, and places into the typical “value meal” back-lit display you see at a fast food restaurant.
awesome.
