the things you did and didn’t see…

I did not put this is much of an order other than the two photo essays. This stuff is from as recent as last week to last year and a variety of things I just never made time to get to until today, the fourth day of my spring break.























































Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration in Chapel Hill

I will add captions to these later.








Cats and Dags and Ducks

Apparently, I’ve been taking pictures of animals. I was discussing with myself the other day how I didn’t care too much for images with no point of focus, and now I’m posting three out of focus images because I like them. I am not sure what to think of that.


Meet bandit, or softie. My parents dog.


Meet Heath, my old cat that is in retirement at my parents house. These are out of focus, but I liked how they looked, especially the next one.


Meet Wallie, the duck that lives in the pond across from my parents house.

Meet my Mom; Wallie likes cereal. My parents house is in the background.

northmas

I went to the bay in Maryland over the break and here are some images. The ones of me in front of the lighthouse were photographed by Ashley. The selftrait (the first image) was done in Dallas as I have found myself with an abundance of time and limited options for activities lately. So I have read eight books now, become fairly good at pool, but recently found a free skate-park so that should help prevent me from taking more photographs of myself.


Apparently, I have an out-of-character, and serious, look of concentration, but I believe I was only thinking “wow, the sun is bright.”


This needs a human in it, but no one wanted to be beautiful.


Collingswood, NJ.

Greenhouses between. Chesapeake City and Chester, Maryland.


Chesapeake Isle Lighthouse near North East, MD.


These two images are pieced together, it is the same door.

Robots

I know I haven’t posted in a while, so this will be very anti-climatic. “Zaven ParĂ© is a French new media artist who lives in Rio. He has won international acclaim for his electronic puppetry, stage design, video projections, and robotic art. He has collaborated with dancers and playwrights as well as with other digital artists and robotics engineers.” This thing was pretty interesting, Pare would create a mold for the face, and then use a projector that would project up and then bounce off a mirror into the back of the mold. The image being projected was created by some sort of program that allowed Pare to make the robot talk and move it’s eyes; I could definitely see this sort of technology used in the future.
