Old Media, Digitized, Make New FormsComputers are changing art in unexpected ways.
Martin Gayford
On July 6, 1507, Michelangelo wrote from Bologna to his brother, Buonarroto. He was engaged in casting a colossal bronze sculpture, of Pope Julius II, and because he was not an expert in bronze casting, he had sent to Florence for someone who was: Bernardino d'Antonio del Ponte di Milano, Master of Ordnance to the Republic of Florence. Michelangelo had great faith in him, he told his brother: "I could have believed that Maestro Bernardino could cast without fire." Though the initial attempt had not gone well, he hoped that with "a great deal of anxiety, exertion, and expense" they would eventually succeed—as indeed they did, although later the statue was melted down by the pope's enemies and transformed, ironically, into a cannon.
Fast-forward a little over half a millennium, and the contemporary Swiss artist Urs Fischer was also facing a technical challenge. He wanted to make a perfect facsimile of Giambologna's intertwined three-figure marble sculpture The Rape of the Sabine Women (1582) in candle wax (plus wax sculptures of an office chair and an artist friend of his named Rudolf Stingel). Just like Michelangelo, he sought out technical assistance—in his case Kunstgiesserei, an art foundry at St. Gallen in Switzerland. The original 16th-century sculpture, in the Loggia dei Lanzi in Florence, was digitized by a state-of-the-art optical scanner, and the resulting information was used to create a model, then a mold, and, eventually, a sculpture in wax, precisely mimicking the stone of the original—plus wicks.
Urs Fischer, Untitled, 2011. Wax, pigments, wicks, steel. On view at the 2011 Venice Biennale. (See a gallery of additional art works.)

AP IMPACT: RECESSION, TECH KILL MIDDLE-CLASS JOBSBy BERNARD CONDON and PAUL WISEMAN - Jan. 23 4:37 PM EST
Home > American Express Co > AP IMPACT: Recession, tech kill middle-class jobs
NEW YORK (AP) — Five years after the start of the Great Recession, the toll is terrifyingly clear: Millions of middle-class jobs have been lost in developed countries the world over.And the situation is even worse than it appears.
Most of the jobs will never return, and millions more are likely to vanish as well, say experts who study the labor market. What's more, these jobs aren't just being lost to China and other developing countries, and they aren't just factory work. Increasingly, jobs are disappearing in the service sector, home to two-thirds of all workers.
They're being obliterated by technology.

Robots are taking mid-level jobs, changing the economyHigh-tech workers should fare well as tech transforms the workplaceBy Sharon Gaudin
October 31, 2011 02:57 PM ET
Computerworld - CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- Computers and robots will replace humans in enough jobs that they will dramatically change the economy, said industry watchers and MIT economists at a robotics symposium Monday. And, they said, the transition has already started.
"What we're finally seeing is that our digital helpers aren’t just catching up to us, but, in some cases, are passing us," said Andrew McAfee, an MIT economist and co-author of the book Race Against the Machine. "In some head-to-head contests, machines have raced past us."

When Machines Do The Work
What will be our jobs? Never mind outsourcing, it’s machines moving in on the workplace.
Ever since machines came on the scene, humans worried they would steal their jobs. They did. But humans adapted. Found other jobs. My guests today, Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee of MIT, say machines are now moving into the workplace at such a pace that humans can’t keep up.
Not even in many white collar settings, where subtle new machine intelligence is now challenging pedigreed human professionals. Plumbers, you’re going to be ok. But what about the rest of us?
This hour On Point: when machines do the work, how will humans make a living?

Explore David Brancaccio’s Marketplace series “Robots Ate My Job.”
April 4, 2012
Marketplace correspondent David Brancaccio wanted to see if it was possible to drive across the country without interacting with a human being – just machines. He discovered how technological advances – from factory robots to self-checkout machines – are changing the future of U.S. jobs.

Editorial
When droids take your jobA duo from MIT argue that rapid computer advances may be vaporizing careers faster than workers can train for new ones.November 28,2011
The stubbornly high unemployment rate has left policymakers wondering whether there's something more at work than just an unusually steep recession. Have the country, its businesses and its markets changed in some fundamental way, leaving millions of Americans with skills that are no longer needed? Economists are sharply divided on that point, but two from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology make a compelling argument that the technology revolution is vaporizing careers faster than many Americans can embark on new ones.
