We don't trust ourselves,
nor in oneself,
neither in our mothers nor fathers,
nor in friends,
nor in what is done,
nor in what was done,
we trust what the algorithm tells us.
Image created using particles obeying certain "gravitational" laws. Mostly variations on "accelerate toward/away from some particle unless some condition is met, in which case move toward/away from some other particle".
Made with processing (processing.org).

Playing with this photo my brother took in Thailand. I love the original but I wanted to see what I could do to produce a more dramatic image. I used bi-color filters from the Nic Collection Color Efex Pro 4 on two of these. I also used Nic Collection Define Pro to remove noise from the original jpeg. No RAW original here.
Let me know what you think if you have a moment. I'm interested in your impressions of the filtered shots. I know many people prefer the "real" image, but keep in mind that all digitial cameras that output jpegs have their own jpeg processing algorithms and scene settings which often involve many of the same tricks and tools as filter sets.
Disclosure, they kindly gave me these filters to try out.

Shot for Macro Mondays "Frustrations"
What I find frustrating is the continued dumping of electronic goods into our landfills. Electronic devices are filled full of lead, mercury, cadmium and other heavy metals. Fortunately in Alberta we have a province run recycling program for monitors computers and printers. Yet there are thousands of other devices with chips in them as well. These don't get recycled.
Even more frustrating are the "Recycling companies" that end up shipping the majority of the e-waste to developing nations where they cause even more damage than they would in our landifills. Very sad stuff if you've ever seen the documentaries.
Such a wasteful society we have. Don't feel too bad though, I'm just as guilty of producing my share of pollution. The cost of modern living I suppose.
Shot Info:
50mm prime lens with a 32mm extension tube. SB-600 shot at 1/64th directly behind. Triggered with the CTR-301P wireless trigger.
Le 8 Novembre, Najat Vallaud-Belkacem découvrait, avec son créateur Claude Posternak, le principe et le fonctionnement du site d'information L'Important.
La ministre des Droits des femmes, porte-parole du gouvernement sera en effet le 20 Novembre 2013 l'invitée de L'Important ce nouveau site produit à partir des messages Twitter.
Najat Vallaud-Belkacem fera part, à travers sa sélection de tweets, de ce qui lui est...important.
Présentation de l'Important
"Alors que les buzz sans intérêts se multiplient. Alors que la concurrence des sites et des chaines d'infos occulte souvent l'essentiel. Alors que des algorithmes sélectionnent les nouvelles selon l'afflux des clics. L'important choisit parmi les tweets des journaux et des twittos du monde entier ce qui est… vraiment important.
Qu’est-ce qui est important pour l’important ?
Le nombre des chômeurs, les révolutions arabes, les nouvelles représentations politique et sociale, l’égalité des sexes, la terre, la laïcité, l’Afrique…tout ce que le zapping de l’actualité efface et qui sont les clés de notre avenir."

My render server is up and running! I can finally crank these out without bringing my laptop to its knees.
A bit of practice in the back garden helps to settle my nerves and bring me a little further back from the edge.

Abstract image generated by an algorithm implemented in Processing.
Particle moves through scene, perturbed by noise.
Three particles "chase" lead particle (and each other), keeping a roughly triangular configuration.
Triangle sides form paintbrushes that sweep across the scene.
Paint becomes more transparent with a hint of colour, as triangle narrows,
and switches from black to white when triangle "flips over".
Thanks for stopping by and view this photo. The reason for posting this photo on Flickr is to learn so if you have constructive feedback regarding what I could do better and / or what should I try, drop me a note I would love to hear your input.

Thinking involves assessment, prediction and decisions based on nature and nurture. I like the assessment part, and also dont mind the predictions. Going through 'the deciding' part is not that easy for me.
Like right now i spend a long time deciding the colour of the background for this image. Black? or white?
Prior to that i spend long time deciding weather i should invest time experimenting photoshop, or plan the next photoshoot.
Before that i spend loads of time while deciding weather i should buy a new lens or a flash, before that.... blah blah blah.
Everytime while making decisions i get lost, and find myself assessing and predicting things (like a moment ago i assessed that 'assesses' is the only word I know with 5 s's...
well now i am thinking that i do possess another word like that: 'possesses')
I predict that this inability to decide is not going to go anywhere any time soon. As long as i can assess, i dont think i will worry that much. That is what i have decided.

Algorithm: Camille Rojas - Nuit blanche 2019 Toronto

Algorithm is a 30-minute solo contemporary dance piece meditating on sexual discrimination in computer vision science; particularly, the algorithms behind removing images of breasts and vulvas online. Currently, an overwhelming number of algorithms exist solely to detect these body parts – often deemed as “pornographic” – yet very few focus on censoring the phallus. The choreography uses symbols and characters from various algorithms as a point of departure, one of which is the han character (凹) as it closely resembles the shape of a vulva (or “concave, hollow, depression” ¹). Throughout the movements, the body, in its raw and fleshy form, interrogates these shapes from beyond the reach of algorithmic censorship. Algorithm simultaneously celebrates censored body parts while highlighting the gender inequality that is extant in technology.

400 Million years old, found in Morocco.
These lowly relatives of the squid and octopi lasted over 300 million years. This particular example dates to the Emsian Age, when Ammonites were all the rage as sea-life goes. The coiled yet non-contiguous habit is quite uncommon among Ammonites, possibly due to a relative lack of robustness leading to an early inclusion in someone else's diet.
