Repeating a semi-failed experiment from 2019 (with hoped-for improvements), another round of pinhole cameras were laid on the perimeter fence of the Nike Missle site at the Headlands to be left for a year. Spanning the time between two Hiroshima anniversaries, recording every passage of the sun from August 6 to the next August 6, these photographs are my exploration of the Bay Area’s infrastructure of nuclear war. These photo paper negatives were made in film canister pinholes using a piece of old Soviet photo paper, producing an image known as a lumen print which appears without using developer...

None of This Was Real is a series of oil paintings that portrays fictional scenes of objects randomly generated by a computer program. These objects are a product of code written by the artist and rendered using a global illumination ray tracing engine. They are effectively subjects for still life. But there was never any life – any reality – in the subjects. Everything was virtual and simulated.
The software for creating the reference images was written in Processing (processing.org), with the additional help of toxiclibs (toxiclibs.org) for geometry creation and Sunflow (sunflow.sourceforge.net) for the global illumination rendering engine.
Description: As the Smithsonian's first photographer and curator of photography, Thomas Smillie used images to catalog the much of the institution's physical object collection, ranging from stuffed animals to plant fossils, decorative boxes, and beyond. The photographs themselves are now part of the Smithsonian's collection.
Creator/Photographer: Thomas Smillie
Birth Date: 1843
Death Date: 1917
Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1843, Thomas William Smillie immigrated to the United States with his family when he five years old. After studying chemistry and medicine at Georgetown University, he took a job as a photographer at the Smithsonian Institution, where he stayed for nearly fifty years until his death in 1917. Smillie's duties and accomplishments at the Smithsonian were vast: he documented important events and research trips, photographed the museum's installations and specimens, created reproductions for use as printing illustrations, performed chemical experiments for Smithsonian scientific researchers, and later acted as the head and curator of the photography lab. Smillie's documentation of each Smithsonian exhibition and installation resulted in an informal record of all of the institution's art and artifacts. In 1913 Smillie mounted an exhibition on the history of photography to showcase the remarkable advancements that had been made in the field but which he feared had already been forgotten.

Originally I took these photos to use in digital art! That was some time ago. You may use them in yours if you wish.
While my wife was making a hospital visit, I took a few minutes at the community park.
There she was, on the stage of the amphitheater. It must've been a brutal concert! There was Barbie, torn asunder on the stage. Apologies for the grusome sight!
