Looking down magnet tubing of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Protons will be fired nearly at the speed of light and collide at detector points such as the 25m high, 7000 tonnes ATLAS (pic below). / / Straddling the Franco-Swiss border, the tunnel housing the LHC is 27 km in circumference, making it the largest particle collider in the world. / Confirmation of the existence, or absence, of the Higgs particle, identification of extra dimensions and investigation of antimatter are among the highly anticipated results of the particle collisions. But no one really knows what’s going to happen. / To keep the magnets functioning, they are cooled to -271.3°C, colder than the temperature of space between galaxies. Final stages of cooling are currently taking place and the LHC is expected to begin firing within a month or two. / Scientists at CERN were the inventors of the internet; www.CERN.ch was the first website to exist on the web. Update: Well, here we are, the world hasn’t ended. Onwards and upwards for the advancement of knowledge – yipppeee!

This is my artwork showing what could possibly happen about one second after a proton particle collision if something is goes amiss at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Geneva, Switzerland. Theoretical ‘dark matter’ and ‘strangelets’ are released by the collider into our dimension, which then form a stable black hole right on the surface of the Earth, tearing up the fabric of time and space and sucking the Earth inside-out into oblivion. / / This artwork was made to accompany my article about the dangers of the new particle collider that have been very effectively glossed over by the scientist community directly involved with the project, as well as, others with a financial interest in the 8 billion dollar project. The article details many aspects of what the scientists are not telling you about. / / Please be sure to read my article that accompanies this artwork at the link found below. / / Be Afraid by Art4EartH / http://www.redbubble.com/people/art4earth/writing/1682509-be-afraid / / Oh… the artwork details… The background created from a PD image from NASA. The black hole forming is a fractal i made in Apophysis, and the exact center of the black hole is precisely over the CERN complex just outside of Geneva, Switzerland. Post-processing effects and the composite were done in Photoshop. This is another large artwork that is hard to see the details of over the web, as the original was made at 3600 pixels square at 300 pixels per inch. / / Enjoy each day as if it is your last, as with all the madness in our world these days… it could very well be! / / Peace & Love, / / Art 4 EartH
My dear mother has always said “Those who play with fire are likely to get burned”. This artwork represents those that are now playing with fire thousands of times hotter than the core of the sun right here on Earth… and we may ALL get burned this time! / / This artwork was inspired by recent news about the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Geneva, Switzerland, on the same day as the first initial test of the huge particle accelerator / collider. Apparently, some hackers from Greece successfully penetrated the computer systems at CERN from over the internet. The hackers made there way so deep within the CERN computer network that the were only one step away from being able to shut down the 12,000 ton superconducting magnet that contains the proton particle collisions within the ALICE complex at CERN. You can read the news article about these hackers at the link shown below. / / Hackers attack Large Hadron Collider / http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/main.jhtml?xml=/earth/2008/09/12/scicern212.xml / / If this scenario were to happen while one of the collision experiments was taking place, it would mean a complete failure in containing both the particle beam and the protons riding that beam at almost the speed of light’. In other words, invoking a catastrophic failure within the LHC that could result in anything from removing Geneva from the world map, to creating a black hole that could not be contained within the magnetic fields generated by the LHC superconducting magnet in ALICE. / / CERN is planning their first particle collision experiments around the end of October 2008. This time table may end up being pushed up, as other scientists are continuing to file suits for a ‘cease and desist’ order to have the LHC deactivated until more research can be done to more adequately prove out the theory the CERN scientists are counting on (Hawking’s Radiation) to keep the world safe. / / I recently wrote an article with another accompanying artwork about the LHC, which described the multitude of dangers associated with the collider that were not being reported to the public by the scientists that are involved with the project. I was pretty much ridiculed by the majority of people on the content of my article, and now only four days after the start up of the LHC the scientists at CERN are already proving out many of the points I argued in my article. I would love to say “who is laughing now?”, however, there is definitely nothing to laugh about regarding this serious issue. / / If you have not already read my article about the LHC, then PLEASE take the time to read it at the link shown below. The issues involved with the LHC could very well become the biggest threat that mankind faces today. / / Be Afraid / http://www.redbubble.com/people/art4earth/writing/1682509-be-afraid / / The artwork was created using quite a number of mixed media techniques. The source image of the Earth used as protons came from a PD image from NASA. Compositing, painting, and other effects were all created in Photoshop. This artwork is difficult to appreciate on the web, as the original is 9600 pixels by 4800 pixels at 300 pixels per inch. It is very intricate in detail on the full-size image, not viewable at viewing sizes over the web. / / Hopefully, this artwork will remind you of the potential danger the scientists at CERN are posing to all of us, and make you realize that not all scientific pursuits are acceptable in the world we live in today! / / Thanks for the visit! / / Art4Earth /

First a belated thanks to everyone who wished me luck and supported me in my exhibition at Fish out of Water, during Adelaide’s SALA Festival. It went very well and I sold 4 paintings! I’m just about to take off on a trip to Europe, and although I have been through Europe before many years ago, it was on the tail end of a very long crazy overland journey through Asia, I was sick, tired and over travelling. It was a rushed, very low budget, and missed out all the art and history. I’m very excited to be going to Rome, Florence and Venice, for a few days each, as well as 10 days in Paris. Also I can’t wait to check out the art scene in Berlin, which is thriving and flourishing from what I hear. I’m also going to Amsterdam, Geneva and Singapore. If I can I might even go on a tour of of the Hadron Collider – hope I don’t fall into a mini black hole! I plan on taking heaps of photos, and sharing some of my experiences here. I haven’t been very prolific in my journal here so far, maybe that will change in the future.
PArticle physics basied joke that plays on the word hadron for a particle that contains quarks
Fractal Art is a fascinating and exciting art form, integrating the best of abstract shapes and subtle layered colors with recursive, kaleidoscopic textured patterns. While fractals are computationally generated from mathematical formulas, it takes a fractal artist to make a myriad of design decisions to coax out a beautiful image hidden in the swirling spirals of the geometry. These images look great on a dorm wall, a corporate office or gracing the mantle above your fireplace at home. The bigger the image, the more details are visible. At once both organic and industrial, fractal images are infinitely enjoyable. See – your teachers told you math would be important later in life, right? :)
