A sequence of shapes on a sequence of creativity

Crato. God of creativity. Main deity of the pantheon of the gods of the Lego. He is elusive and capricious, he appears and disappears for periods according to his will. Wake up fans at night or distract them when they walk down the street. He loves that builders do new things or old things in new ways.

 

The gods of the Lego (or maybe it's "the gods of the Legos"?... never mind) have existed since the beginning of time when everything was black or dark bluish gray but they have not had work until the middle of the 20th century. Now they help and inspire thousands of fans in their task of building with small pieces of plastic.

 

The gods of the Lego:

Crato. God of creativity

Plao. God of planning

Lovellia. Goddess of beauty

Storos. God of storage and order

Joyo. Goddess of the play

Loso. Demon of the lost pieces

Roko. Demon of the broken builds

Crato. Los dioses del LEGO.

 

Crato. Dios de la creatividad. Deidad principal del panteón de los dioses del Lego. Es esquivo y caprichoso, aparece y desaparece por periodos según su voluntad. Despierta a los aficionados por las noches o les distrae cuando andan por la calle. Le encanta que los constructores hagan cosas nuevas o cosas viejas de formas nuevas.

 

Los dioses del Lego (o tal vez sea "los dioses de los legos"... bueno, da igual) existen desde el principio de los tiempos cuando todo era negro o gris oscuro pero no han tenido trabajo hasta mediados del siglo XX. Ahora ayudan e inspiran a miles de aficionados en su tarea de construir con las pequeñas piezas de plástico.

 

Los dioses del Lego:

Crato. Dios de la creatividad

Plao. Dios de la planificación

Lovellia. Diosa de la belleza

Storos. Dios del almacenamiento y el orden

Joyo. Diosa del juego

Loso. Demonio de las piezas perdidas

Roko. Demonio de las construcciones rotas

Study of the day:

 

. . Le chaos n'est pas un état informe, ou un mélange confus et inerte, mais plutôt le lieu d'un devenir plastique et dynamique. (...) La philosophie, la science et l'art "tirent des plans sur le chaos, ce sont les trois chaoïdes. La philosophie sur son plan d'immanence d'idées et de concepts, la science sur son plan de consistance de variables et de fonctifs, et l'art sur son plan de composition d'affects et de percepts.". (...)

 

. . The chaos is not a shapeless state, or a confused and inert mixing, but rather the place of a plastic and dynamic becoming. (...) Philosophy, science and art are "drawing plans" on the chaos, they are the three chaoïds. Philosophy on its plane of immanence of ideas and concepts, science on its plane of consistency of variables and functives, and art on its plane of composition of affects and percepts." (...)

 

( Gilles Deleuze - 1991 - "Qu'est-ce que la philosophie ?")

Oh hai girls and ghouls and welcome to your second judging!

Before we get started on judging your “crazy close-up” pictures lets re-fresh our memories on the judging criteria:

 

-Must be photographed from the waist up or closer (but not further away)

-Show lots of creativity in your background choices, styling and hair!

-This is a simple theme as I want to see creativity from you all

-Be prepared to take risks!

-Prove to me that I made the right decisions!

So let’s get started with Team Barbie and other fashion dolls and in no particular order we shall start with Verucca!

 

Sailorb1959 with Verucca; flic.kr/p/cENqZh

I really like this Verucca, I feel that your interpretation of the theme was very unique which was exactly what I was looking for! The use of the crown was certainly a big risk (mainly in the choice of word written on it which did make me chuckle) and I think it paid off!

 

P.K.L with Kenzie: flic.kr/p/cES5HC

I love how you took this outside (I believe you were the only contestant to do this) and you styling is so sophisticated and elegant and the bow and arrow give it a slight “warrior” feel to it. I love your hair it’s just so amazing and overall I find the more fantasy take on the theme really makes you stand out!

 

bratzjaderox with Aria: flic.kr/p/cFe3W3

Now this is really good and I like the kinda glam styling. I like the way you have such an attitude like you did in your audition but I just wanted this picture to be a little more exciting. I think you have a lot more to give and after having such a good audition I expected a little more from you. Step it up next time – I know you can do so much better!

 

Fabulousdolls with Gwen; flic.kr/p/cFiTfh

Gwen, your just oh so adorable! I love all the purple, love the fur, love the lighting, love the pose….basically I love this …just wow! I really like the direct eye contact; it gives it a real mood to the picture! Plus you really stepped it up from your audition picture! Very impressed!

 

Obsegebitz with Blake: flic.kr/p/cFb9Hy

I like this, your dress is really cute and the touch of glam with the belt is nice! I like the simplicity of it and I see that’s what you were going for, I just feel it needed something more, I can’t quite put my finger on it but there’s something missing!

And onto Team Monster High

 

BarbieCollectionXD2 with Juliet: flic.kr/p/cF3Ugf

This is seriously good! I love the bright prints and colours as well as your clothes and choice of hair style! The pose is nice as well and I like all the detail you’ve put into it. The vibrancy really makes you stand out, next time just try and have a little more eye contact!:)

 

NinaaunddiebarbiesXD1 with Ashley: flic.kr/p/cFbybG

I love the choice of outfit here and the amount of belts your wearing is just awesome! The background and your pose are also nice. I did ask for the shot to be from the waist up and this is shot from below the waist, not meeting a main requirement.

 

lena8137lena with Kate: flic.kr/p/cFUNF5

Hmm, now I like the background and the cute cat ears but that’s about it. The styling isn’t great at all and you haven’t taken your picture form the waist up. Step it up if you wish to progress in this competition!

 

Sabrina Saturn with Sabrina: flic.kr/p/cHdQtA

I love the futuristic take on the theme! I love the combination of the blue lighting and the blue hair. I love the metal bar thingy over your face and the clash between that and the rough background. Next time try and improve the photo quality as it’s a little grainy compared to your audition!

 

Dollywood with Celeste: flic.kr/p/cJABGs

I’m actually shocked! Honestly, this is awful. The scruffy hair, the bad outfit and un-interesting background just make it fail. Sorry but after your impressive audition this is huge step back. I understand you have been busy but you have to step it up.

 

Next up - Team Bratz

 

lola.a.you with Mia: flic.kr/p/cF8Ka5

This is a very impressive picture! I love how creative you have been with make-up choices and clothes (or lack of them) and then contrasting that with the bright white background. I like how you almost did the theme twice as you feature twice in this picture. However, the picture of you on the right isn’t as close-up and I would have liked but you’ve done a great job here!

 

S.U.N with Jenna: flic.kr/p/cJVo3h

Hmm now this shows potential. Your background and styling is nice and the profile view really works! The weirdness that’s going on around you head is a bit strange and it looks like you tried to edit the tape holding your mask type accessory on away. It’s a little messy but overall good job!

 

Anima with Scarlett: flic.kr/p/cK3Mdh

This is good! The way you have kept everything quite plain and let your beauty shine through is really nice and refreshing. The angling is nice and the dark background makes you hair stand out! It is a little grainy but I can appreciate that you couldn’t find your camera but I hope you can find it for future themes!

 

KitKat255 with Ava: flic.kr/p/cJS3UJ

I really like the background and your clothes as well as your glasses! However, I’m not so sure on your eye make-up editing it kinda looks like you have a black eye. Overall this is very good but I think your capable of a lot more!

Andifismoke and Cheryl did not do their photo and did not give me a reason as to why. Therefore Cheryl you are eliminated and no longer have a chance of becoming Flickr’s Next Top Model.

As SonyphotographyX3 with Jade initially auditioned for Team Bratz but made into the underdog team she shall be promoted into Team Bratz and her audition shall now be judged!

SonyphotographyX3 with Jade: flic.kr/p/cELDAS

I really like the use of the mirror as well as the use of lighting to create a mood within the picture. There is some huge grey splodge on the left side of the picture which is somewhat off putting. This shows a lot of potential if you step it up next theme!

Now for the second to last Team, Team Pullip

 

KawaiiBirdaii with Prue: flic.kr/p/cG7F2C

This is good and I like the glam approach to the theme but I just wanted a lot more glam! Your dress is nice and I love the little braclets and the picture is good I just think you could have made it a lot more glam and exciting!

 

~a*w~ with Brayleigh: flic.kr/p/cFaSzw

This really good! First of all I must say I love your new wig! Your background is nice and matches your outfit well and I love the little hair bows! Your pose is really cute but there is a weird fuzzy mark in your hair which appears to be editing – try and avoid this is future!

 

Candizx3 with Suki: flic.kr/p/cGeK63

I like how you are sleeping and this makes yours very different to everyone else’s photos! I like your styling and pose and the way this matches your personality. The lighting is a little dark, try and improve this for future shoots!

 

Allie~Chan with Kiyomi: flic.kr/p/cJwCF9

I love the gothic take on this theme! The spider web background and your black and white clothes look really great and I love the way you are touching chin as this makes you look very thoughtful and intriguing! Like your audition this is really good!

 

Myookat with Wren: flic.kr/p/cJFWJW

This is good but I felt your audition had a lot more impact! Personally I prefer your blonde curls instead of the straight blue/purple hair and I hope to see them back again next week. Your jacket is nice and the background texture is good but next week you need to get back to the standard of your audition at least!

And finally Team Underdog

 

MermaydProductions with Angelica: flic.kr/p/cGnDbh

This is really and truly great Angelica! Absolutely flawless! I just love every aspect of this and you seriously stepped it up from your audition! Great job!

 

Gagaluv! with Alice: flic.kr/p/cHodEN

I like how you background matches your eyes and your top/dress thingy is super pretty and your pose is nice! Truthfully, I preferred your old hair, its suited you better but other than that great job!

 

RagDollKitty with Imogen Ghoul: flic.kr/p/cFxxFf

This is really great, I love all the flowers in your hair and the bright lighting! Your clothes are really nice and altogether this is rather impressive! Great improvement from your audition!

 

Lillycat with Anna: flic.kr/p/cFxcQo

Honestly, I didn’t really like this. You are photographed from too far away and I don’t like your dress or bow! The bright background however does work very nicely but please improve for future themes!

 

Miss America 2011 with Meow-leory: flic.kr/p/cHGBPS

I like the way there is a lot going on in this picture! Your styling is nice, but you did wear that jacket for your audition (Try and avoid this in future) and I’m not sure on the scarf thing. I would have liked more of a pose but this really does show potential!

This build was calling for some heavy editing so I made several attempts until I was pleased with the result.

Please enjoy!

¡Hola!

Hoy os traigo la imagen terminada que enseñe el miércoles pasado. La he titulado 'Mente y creación' ya que he querido que lo que se transmita es la infinidad de cosas que la mente puede hacer y crear sobre todo con la imaginación.

(Que bonito me ha quedado jaja)

  

Esta imagen también se incluye dentro del proyecto semanal Teleidoscope con el tema 'La vuelta al mundo' ya que todo lo que se compone en esta imagen está realizado en distintas partes que he tenido el placer de visitar. (Paris (Disneyland), Galicia...

"Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while." - Steeve Jobs

 

"The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the objects it loves." - Carl Gustav Yung

 

The picture on a stand that I've used in this composition is Chinese hand-made silk embroidery. Have you ever seen such a beautiful painting on a piece of silk satin? Just imagine embroidering such a delicate fugure with the threads and needles! But such an exquisite embroidery has been one of China's most famous art forms for many centuries. The first response people normally have when they see Chinese silk embroidered pictures (embroidery picture, needle painting or thread painting as some people would call) is that they don't believe they are hand embroidered.

Chinese embroidery paintings are well known for its rich colors comparable to an oil painting and realism comparable to photography.

To create a high quality piece, an artist needs to split a single silk thread into several thinner threads and embroider layer after layer with threads of a variety of colors to reach the final wonderful effect. One top quality silk embroidery work usually uses millions of silk threads of hundreds of different colors, taking more than one year to complete.

The city overflows with creativity. Forged by traditions and customs, the city of Oaxaca is also defined by its inventive capacity, reflected in its streets, in art, and in its gastronomy. Knowing its challenges and challenges, Oaxacans have become dynamic thinkers, creators and actors of projects that bring unity and resilience to the city.

Its extremely rare you get to see this birds actual namesake "Red Bellied Woodpecker." Apparently "red headed" was already taken. My mother puts out oranges and grape jelly for our summer time visitors from Costa Rica like the orioles and rose breasted grosbeaks. Of course it doesn't stop our year round residents from getting a sugar high. This particular woodpecker would come in and dance circles around that branch its hanging from and finally decide its best approach as you can see (please zoom in and you can see it can only reach with its tongue). The smaller birds have no problem but this bird is too big and has learned it flips the tray up and thus can't land on it. This is proof of the creativity and intelligence of even the smaller to medium sized back yard birds we have all around us.

Creativity is intelligence having fun!

The Red Dot Design Museum is located at 28 Maxwell Road. Established in November 2005, the museum is a showcase for innovative product design as well as an event and exhibition venue.

 

The second Red Dot Design Museum in the world, the museum is the anchor tenant in the former Singapore Traffic Police Headquarters, a colonial-era building that was converted into a creative hub known as Red Dot Traffic. The building was given conservation status by the Urban Redevelopment Authority in 2007.

Etude du jour:

 

Par attribut, j’entends ce qu'un Univers dans lequel une substance émerge, perçoit et/ou conçoit de cette substance comme constituant son essence.

 

Par classe, j’entends l’ensemble des substances semblables d’un Univers en tant qu’elles partagent les mêmes attributs. Par suite, j’entends par classe, la base d’attributs qui caractérise cet ensemble.

 

Par métaclasse, j’entends la base d’attributs qui caractérise un ensemble de classes. À ce titre, une métaclasse est toujours une classe ; alors que l’inverse n’est pas toujours décidable.

 

Par instance, j’entends une occurrence singulière, dans un Univers donné, d’une substance (resp. d’une classe) qui actualise les attributs d’une classe (resp. d’une métaclasse).

a camera toss, mirrored and colourized. I quite like the result but as I prefer not to alter my uploads much I'm just not sure. The original is here

 

Anyway, film night, and I went to see Thérese Desqueyroux, a period drama set in provincial France in the 1920s. The heroine, if we can call her that, seems destined to a dull, if wealthy, existence, partly because of the limits of her country set, but mostly because of her thrawn nature which represses her discontent rather than expresses it. Audrey Tautou plays the lead with such cold aloofness and with hardly a flash of her winning smile that it's difficult to sympathise with her character, or the family that surrounds her. Looks great but ultimately quite dull 3/5

Corpus Christi 2007 - Sitges, Barcelona (Spain).

 

ENGLISH

For the festivity of Corpus Christi, every year it is celebrated a contest of carpets of flowers in the streets of Sitges, in which people, groups and schools participate. The used materials usually are petals of carnations, grass, earth, coffee, bran of rice and other types of flowers. Also some balconies are specially arranged.

 

------------------------

 

CASTELLANO

Para la festividad de Corpus Christi se celebra cada año en las calles de Sitges un concurso de alfombras de flores, en que participan personas, colectivos y escuelas. Los materiales empleados suelen ser pétalos de claveles, hierba, tierra, café, salvado de arroz y otros tipos de flores. También se engalanan algunos balcones.

Here it goes today without any apperception
