Brian Knep Lecture

Brian Knep's lecture on his work was really interesting, especially the projects he's working on currently. It was interesting hearing him describe the various career paths he's had before becoming an artist. I wanted to hear more about his work in the special effects industry. He seemed really casual about working on Jurassic Park.
I liked hearing him talk about his projects, which are extremely organic and spontaneous looking, in the context of science and programming. A lot of his new work involves living organisms, such as nematodes and frogs. He seemed really passionate and interested in just the study and pursuit of scientific topics. He seemed full of ideas. For example, the idea that nematodes will remember where food is, or respond to heat, and ideas involving this knowledge came up during the discussion.
