Meistens begnügt sich der Sekretär damit, einfach schöne, gerne auch spezielle, lustige, nachdenkliche und ironische Bilder mit seinen Flickr-Freunden zu teilen. Aber manchmal gibt es, wie hier, Ausnahmen.
Der Ethikkodex des IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) geht auf einen Kodex des früheren AIEE (American Institute of Electrical Engineers) zurück, der 1912, also vor 110 Jahren, verabschiedet wurde.
Wie wir wissen, hat ein solcher Kodex Personen - und zwar sehr viele - kaum jemals davon abgehalten, sich unethisch bis hin zu kriminell zu verhalten. Und so wird es auch in Zukunft sein. Es wäre auch eine törichte Illusion zu erwarten, dass ein solches Dokument klare Anleitungen für das Verhalten in bestimmten Situationen gibt, auch in diesen schwierigen und herausfordernden Tagen.
Aber angesichts dessen, was Ingenieure zum Guten, aber auch zum Schlechten dieser Welt und ihrer Bewohner beigetragen haben und beitragen, ist es gut, einem Verband anzugehören, dem diese Fragen nicht gleichgültig sind und der über die Grenzen des eigenen Berufsstandes hinausblickt.

Usually, Secretary is content to simply share some nice, preferably special, funny, thoughtful and ironic pictures with his Flickr friends. But sometimes, like here, there are exceptions.
The Code of Ethics of the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) goes back a code of the former AIEE (American Institute of Electrical Engineers), adopted in 1912, i.e. 110 years ago.
As we know, such a code has hardly ever prevented individuals - actually a great many of them - from behaving unethically to the point of criminality. And so it will be in the future. It would also be a foolish illusion to expect such a document to give clear guidance on how to act in specific situations, including these present difficult and challenging days.
But in view of what engineers have contributed and are contributing to the good, but also to the bad, of this world and its residents, it is good to be part of an association that is not indifferent to these issues and that looks beyond the borders of its own profession.
Ethics is knowing the difference between what you have a right to do and what is right to do.

Painted in 1999 on Rail box. E to E with some members of the crew and an addition. I believe this was painted with Intel, Logik, Emer and a writer that was put down that night, that wrote Eski/Eskimo. One of those, well if were putting someone down, then we better go and get up together. So that's what we did. I want to say that we first met up at a club or something to start the night off but I can't really remember. I just remember that my piece was just smashed in tight to the end of a crushed car, nineties style. Which means, small pieces and everyone's invited to the party. Which leads me to the real story........ Well, sometimes you learn a lesson in haste when you put someone down without really putting in the effort to see if they make a good fit. I believe this train was done within one week of Eski leaving and going back to her home city, which I think was Seattle(?). Either way, it didn't really matter. I had never seen or heard from her again. I don't know if she still writes or not but all I can say is, make sure you do your due diligence when putting in a crew member. It's one of the most important moves you can make in this game. My crew has had it's share of successes and failures. For the most part, the failures came from not really knowing the character of the person. I look at it like this, any and all that have come and gone from AKB, have been either weak, dishonorable or misinformed about this culture, the graffiti writers code or ethics and how seriously passionate about it, some of us are. We've had people make bad choices that have put us all at risk and others who didn't have the heart to speak up for themselves when they weren't getting the attention they desired or thought they deserved. Either way, you live and you learn and the crew always moves on stronger and with a lesser degree for error. It's unfortunate but it's the way it's got to be. Back in the day, if you were mad cool and had similar interests as some of the crew members, you had a good shot at getting in. Nowadays, it's become like the elite organizations of the military, you have to earn your way in and it's not going to be easy. This is due to how strong our bond is, all the history, plus the bullshit, trials and tribulations that we have endured over the years and how tight we are on a personal level. To most outsiders, we would look like a bunch of disfunctional people that wouldn't have anything in common and couldn't relate to each other on a personal level..... but they don't understand Graffiti culture or the mindset of Graffiti Writers. We all come from different backgrounds, have differing degrees of education, family and social structures and status but we all share one common goal, "To rock the city and represent for AKB". No matter where we are at, or on what type of surface, we have a complete understanding and total control over that inner drive that compells us to get down and paint and represent for our crew. Sure, our families come first but that's why we call ourselves the AKB family. Everything else in life, is just gravy. Good times!

Mysterious "forms" have entangled in this case, both literal and mataphorical ones. After we followed the guiding luminance we found the three lost truck drivers. The fact that we found them means nothing since there is nothing at the end of the road, at least nothing tangible and this pulsing web of events seems very fragile in terms of human ethics. I suppose something that doesn't come to an end rarely leaves a human mind. But for me, we haven't found them.
When does a dump turn into an archaeological site? When archaeologists find artifacts, they're often in what would have been that culture's garbage dump. It's now (and rightly so) culturally significant enough to stop progress. When will this?
On one of the summer roads in Whitman County I found this old dump. The way the pieces are scattered caught my eye.
Maybe some, like the barrel, were rolled from where I stood. But the stove and the basin were carried to the bottom and left there maybe fifty or sixty years ago. There's another stove that may even be older.
I've not come across much of this out there. Maybe it's the emptiness of the land - so empty that it just doesn't feel right, even to those who would dump a couch in the woods. Maybe it's been cleaned up.
I think I sometimes see myself as an archaeologist, even down to the ethics (I enjoy seeing and leaving things in sito). For better or worse, I tend to remove myself from the cultural discussion to just focus on the scene before me. I study it (often after developing the photos), and try to piece together some sort of story.
On our recent episode, we talked about storytelling with photography. I couldn't really come to the conclusion that it's something that I do. I think I more so compile stories adjacent to what I'm photographing. Sometimes, it's almost fanfic.
You know, like archaeology.

HELLO!
Here's a photo that took me forever to edit, because making fake fake-fur coats is quite a time-taker. I shall post some epic before and afterness on Facebook. So go look at that.
Are you done? Cool.
Oh wait, I haven't posted it yet. Sorrow.. I HAVE NOW!
It's just going to be a photo of the NOTHING, and then a photo of the EVERYTHING next to each other for shock value, so you might not be missing out... (psst, you're missing out)
I DID record my screen the whole time I was editing, so I could make a 12 hour YouTube video if you wanted to see that? Anyone? No? Damn. :P
I squashed it into 5 minutes instead: YOUTUBE SPEEDY EDIT

This is the first photo of a 12 month themed series on animal welfare.
Each month will have a different Sin or Virtue as the theme.This month the theme is Pride.
I've made a group called Sins&Virtues for a cause where I'll be adding my photo every month.
I'd love it if you Flickr fellows joined in and added your own photos in line with the monthly theme on whatever cause is close to your heart. Check out the group for more info on the themes etc.
The idea is to get a large group of photographers making art for their causes; Spreading awareness and making positive changes.
My model, and the brains behind this whole idea, is Sarah.

The Golden Egyptian Queen Anotheys - AI Generated Art And The New Art Dilema by Daniel Arrhakis (2023)
Experimented the New Text Prompt Art in Deep Dream Generator / Text 2 Dream :

The New Current Art Dilemma with the AI Generated Art -
What Future for Digital Art with the Development of Artificial Intelligence ?
Digital Art and even Art in general will no longer be the same, the new technologies used in the new generation of images in AI Generated Art, pose new challenges for digital artists but on the other hand can open up new perspectives of new worlds and artistic visions for the infinite possibility of new combinations of styles.
If, on the one hand, the artists' styles can be recreated, the fact is that as each artist has their favorite themes and techniques, the use of these images generated by artificial intelligence can be another way of working for their creations alongside Photography. , digital painting or the use of computer editing programs !
One thing is certain, the art world will never be the same and I fear that those who will profit the most will be the big companies of image generation by artificial intelligence and the big multinationals of production of visual and audiovisual arts content.
But as has been proven over time, the human imagination is infinitely rich and creative, which is why it is not the end of artistic creation and much less the end of artists, so Artificial Intelligence will be more a means than an end in itself !
Or at least let's hope so... :)

O Novo Dilema Actual Da Arte Com A Arte Gerada Por Inteligência Artificial (IA) - Que futuro para a arte digital com o desenvolvimento da inteligência artificial?
A Arte Digital e mesmo a Arte em geral não vão ser mais as mesmas, as novas tecnologias empregues na nova geração de imagens em AI vem colocar novos desafios para os artistas digitais mas por outro lado pode vir a abrir novas perspetivas de novos mundos e visões artísticas pela possibilidade infinita de novas conjugações de estilos.
Se por um lado os estilos dos artistas poderão ser recreados, o certo é que como cada artista tem os seus temas e técnicas preferidas, a utilização destas imagens geradas por inteligência artificial pode ser mais um meio de trabalho para as suas criações a par da Fotografia, da Pintura Digital ou o uso de Programas de Edição de Imagem por computador !
Uma coisa é certa, o mundo da Arte não vai ser mais o mesmo e receio que quem vem lucrar mais serão as grandes empresas de geração de imagens por inteligência artificial e as grandes multinacionais de produção de conteúdos de artes visuais e audiovisuais.
Mas como se tem provado ao longo dos tempos, a imaginação humana é infinitamente rica e criativa, pelo que não é o fim da criação artística e muito menos o fim dos artistas, pelo que a Inteligência Artificial vai ser mais um meio que um fim em si mesmo !
Ou pelo menos esperemos que assim seja ... : )
Ethics cannot be based upon our obligations toward [people], but they are complete and natural only when we feel this Reverence for Life and the desire to have compassion for and to help all creatures insofar as it is in our power. I think that this ethic will become more and more recognized because of its great naturalness and because it is the foundation of a true humanism toward which we must strive if our culture is to become truly ethical.

A Yin/Yang Perception of Opposites
Tao Te Ching -:- Verse 2
====================================
When people see things as beautiful,
ugliness is created.
When people see things as good,
evil is created.
Being and non-being produce each other.
Difficult and easy complement each other.
Long and short define each other.
High and low oppose each other.
Fore and aft follow each other.
====================================
In Chinese philosophy, yin and yang (also, yin-yang or yin yang) describes how apparently opposite or contrary forces are actually complementary, interconnected, and interdependent in the natural world, and how they give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another. Many tangible dualities (such as light and dark, fire and water, and male and female) are thought of as physical manifestations of the duality of yin and yang. This duality lies at the origins of many branches of classical Chinese science and philosophy, as well as being a primary guideline of traditional Chinese medicine, and a central principle of different forms of Chinese martial arts and exercise, such as baguazhang, taijiquan (t'ai chi), and qigong (Chi Kung), as well as in the pages of the I Ching written in 1,000 BC and before.
Yin and yang can be thought of as complementary (rather than opposing) forces that interact to form a dynamic system in which the whole is greater than the assembled parts. Everything has both yin and yang aspects, (for instance shadow cannot exist without light). Either of the two major aspects may manifest more strongly in a particular object, depending on the criterion of the observation. The yin yang shows a balance between two opposites with a little bit in each.
In Daoist metaphysics, distinctions between good and bad, along with other dichotomous moral judgments, are perceptual, not real; so, the duality of yin and yang is an indivisible whole. In the ethics of Confucianism on the other hand, most notably in the philosophy of Dong Zhongshu (c. 2nd century BC), a moral dimension is attached to the idea of yin and yang.

By measuring starlight - specifically, the color and brightness - astronomers have determined that our Milky Way has about 100 billion stars in its system. Using the Milky Way as a model, astronomers have multiplied the number of stars in a typical galaxy (100 billion) by the number of galaxies in the known universe (2 trillion). The result is an absolutely astounding number of approximately 200 billion trillion stars in our known universe. Given that the earth’s star (the sun) has eight planets revolving around it, one of which has humans on it. Is it reasonable to believe that human beings here on the planet earth are the only beings in existence?

As a macro photographer, one would undoubtedly face the issue of ethics and responsibility in the field. I will explain more about this, as well as my personal views in this page. Hopefully, this will allow more macro photographers to understand the importance of good ethics, and exercise good individual judgement about ethical and responsible behavior in the field. This is a must-read for anyone starting out on nature macro photography.

As promised, I have created an "Owl Card" to spread the word about good birding ethics, especially related to owls. It is meant to be printed front and back; however, it may also be printed one-sided.
If you would like to print this card, please send me your email address. I don't expect the response to be overwhelming, but if it is I will have to rethink how to efficiently distribute.
If you would like to take the text and create your own cards, by ALL MEANS FEEL FREE. Only my images are copyrighted.

Virtue ethics describes the character of a moral agent as a driving force for ethical behavior, and is used to describe the ethics of Socrates, Aristotle, and other early Greek philosophers.
Socrates (469 BC – 399 BC) was one of the first Greek philosophers to encourage both scholars and the common citizen to turn their attention from the outside world to the condition of humankind.
From the expiry of my final Young Person's Railcard to realising that my little cousin Chloe (pictured), whose birth seems like a recent memory, has already started primary school, I'm reminded these days more than ever of the fact that, at least in the literal, numerical sense, I'm getting older. But more than that, I find myself doing 'grown-up' things with increasing regularity: dinner parties instead of warehouse parties, letting the wine breathe, loading and unloading a dishwasher, Sunday afternoon drives to the supermarket, going to bed before midnight.
Where I don't sleep so easy some nights because I'm wondering what that all means.

On June 17-18, 2015, the Ethisphere Institute hosted the 3rd Annual Latin America Ethics Summit in Rio de Janeiro which offered delegates a local perspective on global issues including: anti-corruption, relationships with third parties, structuring of compliance department, culture, business in high risk markets, and more.
