Artomatic 2009: Michael Sirvet : bioephemera

BioE Holiday Giving

This year's BioE holiday nonprofit is the Clarkston Education Foundation, a small-town scholarship fund that - among its many projects - helps local students attend research universities, pre-med and pre-nursing programs, contributes science equipment to the local high school, and funds hands-on projects and activities thought up by creative local teachers.

Thanks to SEED/Sb, my BioE blog revenues for November and December will be donated directly to CEF. Read more about CEF, and help send a young mind to college!

Give to CEF thru Paypal!

Michael Sirvet

Michael Sirvet's aluminum shell, three feet in diameter, is a porous excuse for a bowl (heh heh), but all those edges make lovely sifted patterns of light. Millennia makes me think of a cell membrane, a hollowed-out moon, or the Death Star. I'm not sure which resemblance is cooler. See it at Sirvet's website, or at Artomatic.
