"Blobjects and Beyond: The New Fluidity in Design"

This is the title given to an art show by a californian industrial designer and his wife, an art historian, at the San Jose Art Museum. The exhibit centers mainly on "blobjects".

A good deal of the inspiration for blobjects comes from nature and biological forms - the asymmetrical, fluid, blobby world around us - their wellspring lies within sophisticated computer software, where graphic ideas can be quickly, cheaply, and easily manipulated in hundreds of ways with the click of a mouse.
