Jimmy O’Neal is one half scientist and one half painter. On the surface he paints using acrylics most often applied to mirrored surface. Underneath that he is an alchemist, producing poetic imagery conjured by real scientific principles and inquiry. The resulting images are often not representational but directly reference the process that informed their development.
Electroencephalography (EEG) is the recording of electrical activity along the scalp produced by the firing of neurons wi thin th e brain . The mirror ed pa inting on the boat (create by brain waves and the EEG painting mahine, produces the physiological output of a poetic mental image for reflecting real tie images in an abstract paint mark depiting the drifting landcape within a symbol of maximal human intent.
One of the earliest to notice that an oscillating body displayed regular patterns was Galileo Galilei . In Dialogue Concer ning the Two Chief World Systems (1632), he wro te: A) Air at equilibrium, in the absence of a sound wave; (B) compressions and rarefactions that constitute a sound wave; (C) longitudinal wave transverse representation of the wave, showing amplitude (A) and wavelength (λ). Crest Trough Frequency is the number of occurrences wavelength of a sinusoidal wave is the spatial period of the wave Period quali ty of occurring at regular intervals Amplitude = volume INtensity - amount of energy speed of sound describes how far this wave travels in a given amount of time
began career studying medicine before taking art carried with her an interest/influence in bio-sciences, particularly how organisms function-their individual make-up as well as how they relate to one another, growth and movement, essentially patterns among organisms
uniqueness of individual related to patterns that evolve when you pull back and look at organism from a distance person v people or individual organism to societal structure added layer of news media

For instance, through a study of Kyungmi Shin’s installation, students can explore the human traffic patterns of particular areas and the residual energy or impact on that environment. Those patterns can then be transferred into marks via traditional materials as well as new media. Students could simultaneously explore the growth patterns of other organisms, such as bacteria. This lesson would be founded in a biological study of patterns among organisms. Once the students identify those patterns they could harness them to fabricate their own works of organic art by growing natural flora into a sculptural installation.
