7Electrons Guest Artist - Justin Amrhein
For many years I was always awestruck by my husband’s schematics. I loved the intricacies of all the traces and parts assigned. Besides the applied reasons for engineering, they always look like a work of art.
When I discovered Justin’s work, I was blown away. Not only are his schematics hand drawn but they also combine the imaginary with mechanical thinking. Truly stunning work.
Justin is a Brooklyn, NY based fine artist. His work is primarily created with graphite, acrylic, collage, plexiglas, light box-steel, and/or other mixed media.
He writes, “Figuring out how things work and how things are built intrigues me. After studying how a particular object is made and the major components crucial to its function I have the basic knowledge needed to develop versions of those objects or invent an entirely new object all together. In the form of schematic drawings, I can define function and purpose of elements that border between real objects and imaginary creations. By using different forms of labeling systems to illustrate and organize an object, I am able to provide a commentary on a multitude of subjects while creating complicated, purpose-driven machines.”
7E is proud to showcase his most recent work here. First three works (counterclockwise) are titled Replacement Cherry Tree, 2013 (57" X 40"), Threaded Clip Grip, 2013 (18 ¼” x 18"), and Rin Skitter Adjustable Rotator, 2013 (18" X 20")

7E Guest Artist - Pe Lang
Pe is a Swiss born artist based in Berlin and Zurich.
Moving Objects | N˚ 804 is one of several innovative art machines commissioned by ZERO1 in San Jose, California. (ZERO1 is a contemporary art event that presents and supports artists who work with art and technology.)
His kinetic art is mind-blowing. I feel this tension in my head while watching the slow interaction of cords being pushed and pulled. Made of cords, various mechanical parts, motor, actuators and/or magnets, he constructs these machines that evoke the understanding of forces and reaction.
These are crazy inspiring to me.
Check out his other work.

@anthonymackie this is really the only scene I need in Falcon and Winter Soldier and the show is a 10 to me lol. I love Bad Boys and I love Marvel. The full print and smaller panels will be for sale on alexbillustrations.com!

I think Instagram art for me is weird. My normal practice I draw at least 50 pictures per character before I even start the real picture, at what point have I saturated the feed lol??

Today was a “lumpy day”. Farm Girl and I have both been struggling along. Depression sucks! Chronic pain sucks! And so we spent the day giving each other hugs and apologizing for being lumpy and giggling about our mutual apologies.
But I think-I know-these are the days we are going to look back on when we are old and gray and reminisce about. The day FG taught me how to change my oil and rotate my tires. The day we watched Lilo and Stitch and snuggled and baked and gave away old coats from the front porch. The days we made it through together and in love.

I offhandedly mentioned some projects I needed to start slogging through to FG over the weekend. Like a lot of folks who deal with long bouts of depression I struggle with “projects”. When something breaks when I’m not feeling my best self, I let it sit. And when I feel better I often feel anxious or guilty for letting them fall into disrepair.
FG showed up on Monday with her toolbox in her hand and a smile on her face ready to fix my dishwasher, snowblower, install my bidet and clean my filthy kitchen. She walked me through each repair and shared the absolute joy of the snowblower (FINALLY) firing up.
Watching her tinker is always super sexy to me. She’s really good at it. When she shows me things she’s always gentle and encouraging and never chastises or teases me for not knowing how things work or not taking care of them sooner. Her eagerness yo help and her delight when she gets something to work just bowl me over.
Seriously, my Handy Girl is just…Swoon-City, Baby!
I’ve been away expending my knowledge on theories, its subtopics and concepts. I’ve barely scratched the surface of kinetics, but hey; big things start will small steps.
You would be forgiven for assuming that heavier objects fall faster than lighter ones—it sounds like common sense, and besides, you know for a fact that a bowling ball drops more quickly than a feather. And this is true, but it has nothing to do with gravity—the only reason this occurs is because the earth’s atmosphere provides resistance. In reality, as Galileo first realized about 400 years ago, gravity works the same on all objects, regardless of their mass. What this means is that if you repeated the feather/bowling ball experiment on the moon (which has no atmosphere), they would hit the ground at the exact same time.
AU: Titanic is going to Japan and Jack finds his way in to pursue his dream of building the world’s first mecha, in hope to use it to help the world. On the way he meets Rose, an sci-fi writer and lover of mechanics.
