Organic Radio

When we were told to draw the phenomena that our machines exhibited in Montreal, one of my first instincts was to somehow draw the way in which a radio actually filters out radio waves and amplifies the one that it needs to.

Another thing that exhibits a similar behaviour bacteria and other single-celled organisms. They have a permeable membrane that allows certain chemicals into the cells at certain times in order to function. I decided that a radio was a similar mechanism, but rather than filtering chemicals, it filters electromagnetic waves. Hence the organic/biomechanical look of the above drawing.The final drawing has splatters or paint to show the different channels coming into the "receiver". On the outside of the frame, there are four different colours, and as the waves pass through the rings, one colour is blocked out, until only the blue radio waves remain.

I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, anyway. More drawings to come.
