R. Scott Bartlett is a metal sculptor, working primarily in welded steel. His current projects incorporate flames moving through clear tubing. His latest project, called Thought, is an intricate spherical tangle of tubing, where blue thought-like flames weave, twist, split and eventually die away. It has been shown at a variety of events in the Bay Area, Sacramento, and Black Rock.

Scott has designed interactive computer music installations using both infrared and ultrasonic sonar as input stimuli to markov processes and other computational engines to produce dynamic sonic tapestries. He is also an accomplished B&W photographer, focusing on religious sculpture and architecture and also the complexity of massive industrial facilities. Scott graduated with a BS in computer engineering from NC State University and currently designs microprocessors at Transmeta. He still plays with LEGOS.
