...of other people and the intersubjective world is problematic only for adults. The child lives in a world which he unhesitatingly believes accessible to all around him. He has no awares of himself or of others as private subjectives, nor does he suspect that all of us, himself included, are limited to one certain point of view of the world. That is why he subjects neither his thoughts, in which he believes as they present themselves, to any sort of criticism. He has no knowledge of points of view. For him men are empty heads turned towards one single, self-evident world where everything takes place, even dreams, which are, he thinks, in his room, and even thinking, since it is not distinct from words.”

Reality and Perception
There is a belief that photographs don't lie, i.e., they are a representation of reality. This perception is of the reasons why people accept images captured in photographs as real and true, and thus used quite often as evidence in court and as "truth" of our world in publications.
But, is this really true, or accurate?
Compare the image shown here for example with an almost exactly the same image Before Darkness Reigns -- taken about a minute before the image show here. In fact, without this added information, it would appear as if this image shown was taken before the other image, Before Darkness Reigns, rather than the other way around. In reality, this was exposed just slightly longer to reveal a more clear foreground (notice the most green on the dock not evident in the other image). It would appear too, as if the Charles River was quite tranquil. In fact, there was a slight breeze, more evident in the undulation of the Charles River in the image, Before Darkness Reigns. In fact, the waves would have been much higher had the shutter speed been faster, suggesting a stronger breeze and explaining the more significant windchill effect when the images were taken. [I was freezing cold, I was starting to have "cold burns" and pin pricks as my fingers were slowly getting numb.]
Here, there was no deliberate attempt to alter or falsify the image that is presented (see note below). But, in fact, even this statement is relative.
With digital photography and post-processing tools now available, it is so easy to alter what we present, even before we capture the image and to some, after we capture the image. In most of the shots shown in this series, for example, I used the "Vivid" rather than the "Normal" option because I thought after reviewing my initial images in previous shots, it was a more "realistic" representation of the actual colors of the images -- with the current setting of my camera. [I am literally taking my first baby steps into the world of digital photography, there are so many buttons in the Nikon D200 I have yet to learn, to capture the "perfect" picture.]
In movies, like Forrest Gump, for example, by juxtaposing images, it is now possible to make people of the past become part of the present. But, we know that movies are make believe, so that we still can distinguish sometimes what is real and what is not. However, it is now accepted in newsroom to use backdrop scenery in studios to give a semblance that the people are in natural setting. Here, it is still easy to discern that the setting is unreal.
With these advances in audio-visual tools and computer technology however, it is now possible electronically "to cut and paste" portions of images and audio -- to literally do anything you want.
Obviously, the genie is out of the bottle. We could not turn back the time, just a decade or so ago, when it would have been easy to detect a forgery or alteration shown in images and audio-visuals.
The impact on us however is more far-reaching, psychologically and sociologically. We tend to be more cynical with what we see and what we hear. How many of us believe the people we "talk to" in the internet? We become guarded and refuse to share the person that we are.
In the song, the "Sound of Silence", there is a phrase there: "People talking without speaking..." -- that is what we have become.
Cornelio

St Lawrence's Church, Mereworth
The church was built in the mid-1740s by John Fane, the 7th Earl of Westmorland following his removal of the village's 12th century place of worship to allow for the enlargement of Mereworth Castle.
The Palladian-style stone structure has been described as "the outstanding 18th-century church in the county, in scale, ambition and architectural interest".[1] The architect is unknown, but prominent Palladian-era figures such as Henry Flitcroft, James Gibbs and Roger Morris have been suggested.
Many internal fixtures survive from the medieval church, including heraldic stained glass and a series of high-quality brass and stone memorials. Alterations were made several times in the 19th and 20th centuries, including repairs to wartime bomb damage, and restoration work undertaken in 2009. The church has been awarded Grade I listed status in view of its architectural and historical importance.

Marian apparition legacy in Mexico City
The Virgin Mary intercepted Juan Diego, an indigenous Mexican peasant ( Chichimec which is the name that the Nahua peoples of Mexico generically applied to nomadic and semi-nomadic peoples who were established in present-day Bajio region of Mexico) and asked where he was going, In the words which have become the most famous phrase of the Guadalupe apparitions and are inscribed above the main entrance to the Basilica of Guadalupe, she asked "¿No estoy yo aquí que soy tu madre?" ("Am I not here, I who am your mother?"). Mary assured Juan Diego that Juan Bernardino had now recovered and told him to gather flowers from the summit of Tepeyac Hill, which was normally barren, especially in the cold of December. Juan Diego obeyed her instruction and he found Castilian roses, not native to Mexico, blooming there.
The Virgin arranged the flowers in Juan Diego's tilma, or cloak, and when Juan Diego opened his cloak later that day before Archbishop Zumárraga, the flowers fell to the floor, revealing on the fabric the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe.

The Church of Our Lady of Guadalupe was founded in 1902, and became the first parish in New York City to serve Hispanics.
Since there were many Spanish and Mexican residents in the area, this seemed to be the most promising location for a new parish. An available brownstone at 229 West 14th Street was purchased and transformed into an attractive chapel it was fittingly dedicated to Our lady of Guadalupe, patroness of the Spanish-speaking everywhere. This was the first altar, in New York that the Hispanics could truly call their own, on February 23, 1902.

Our Lady of Guadalupe (Spanish: Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe), also known as the Virgin of Guadalupe (Spanish: Virgen de Guadalupe), is a Catholic title of Mary, mother of Jesus associated with a series of five Marian apparitions in December 1531, and a venerated image on a cloak enshrined within the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City. The basilica is the most-visited Catholic shrine in the world, and the world's third most-visited sacred site.

A Marian apparition is a reported supernatural appearance by Mary, the mother of Jesus, or a series of related such appearances over a period of time.
In order to be classified as a Marian apparition, the person or persons who claim to see Mary (the "seers") must claim that they see her visually located in their environment. If the person claims to hear Mary but not see her, this is known as an interior locution, not an apparition. Also excluded from the category of apparitions are dreams, visions experienced in the imagination, the claimed perception of Mary in ordinarily-explainable natural phenomena, and miracles associated with Marian artwork, such as weeping statues.
Believers consider such apparitions to be real and objective interventions of divine power, rather than subjective experiences generated by the perceiving individuals, even in cases where the apparition is reportedly seen by only some, not all, of the people present at the event's location.
Marian apparitions are considered expressions of Mary's ongoing motherly care for the church. The understood purpose of each apparition is to draw attention to some aspect of the Christian message, given the needs of a particular time and place. Apparitions are often accompanied by other alleged supernatural phenomena

For this project I wanted to look at the human form from an abstract view, taking away any previous experience or relation to the human body I wanted to create this new physical form relating more to extra terrestrials and the idea of life beyond earth.
What would they look like ?
how would they move ?
Enjoy

NEWS: Fighting to memorialize Vancouver’s first black neighbourhood
POSTED BY: JESSICA BARRETT
02/23/2011 12:00 AM
When Wayde Compton tells people about the Hogan’s Alley Memorial Project, he’s often met with the same response: “They look at you with skepticism and confusion,” the author and historian says of his reference to Vancouver’s historical black community. Though awareness is greater today than it was when he started the project in 2002, most people in Vancouver still don‘t know the three-block stretch of Strathcona, between Union and Prior near Main Street, was for decades home to one of Vancouver’s most vibrant ethnic enclaves.
If you’d gone down to the neighbourhood in, say, the 1950s or ’60s, Hogan’s Alley would have been the epicentre of black culture in Vancouver.
Back then, the thriving, working-class neighbourhood featured some of the best jazz clubs and comfort food establishments the city had to offer. It was there that Compton’s parents met each other decades ago, and there that such notable black figures, from former MLA and B.C. legislative speaker Emery Barnes to guitar legend Jimi Hendrix, could be found winding down during off hours.
And it’s that community Compton and others would like to see acknowledged with a permanent, public memorial.
The neighbourhood’s residents were effectively evicted by city council circa-1970, when it opted to bulldoze the area in favour of the Georgia Street viaduct, part of an ill-fated attempt to bring freeways to Vancouver. While the other ethnic enclaves — Chinatown, Little Italy, Japantown — were spared by a community uprising against the initiative, Hogan’s Alley was the first and only casualty.
Today, a private shrine at the former workplace of Norah Hendrix (Jimi’s grandma) is the only indication Vancouver ever had a concentrated black community. Compton says the loss of the neighbourhood has essentially wiped the memory of a black community from Vancouver’s collective consciousness and continues to impact the way black people are perceived in the city’s contemporary cultural context.
“When Hogan’s Alley existed as a black neighbourhood, it seemed like Vancouverites knew they had a black population, it wasn’t this big mystery, nobody was saying there were no black people in Vancouver,” says Compton, who’s penned two books on the subject. “But as soon as that population integrated, then people say that. In fact, the percentage of blacks in the Lower Mainland to the general population is actually higher now, and yet people’s perception of the black community is less.”
Park Board commissioner Constance Barnes, daughter of Emery Barnes, agrees blacks are under-represented in Vancouver’s cultural dialogue.
“There is a great black community, but I don’t believe it is recognized,” she says, noting that while Vancouver city council was quick to celebrate the beginning of the Lunar New Year on Feb. 1, council waited until the middle of February to publicly acknowledge Black History Month, which began the same day.
“The fact that the proclamation was not read in city hall on Feb. 1 was very disappointing to the community.”
While Barnes says a Hogan’s Alley memorial is long overdue, she’d like to see the community recognized with something more substantial than a plaque.
Black people in the Lower Mainland need a home — a community centre, museum or library — where they can come together to learn about their shared history in this province and connect with one another, she says.
Ironically, she adds, it’s the lack of just such a space that’s preventing the kind of critical mass from forming that would pressure government to commit resources to a project of that size.
“It is difficult to get the black community to come together... and I think that is because we don’t have anywhere [to meet],” says Barnes. “We don’t have that community centre or library or a location that’s ours. We haven’t been recognized to that point.”
City councillor Geoff Meggs says he isn’t aware of any “organized pressure from the black community” for a community centre or museum space. “I’m sure if a proposal came forward, it would be considered seriously,” he says.
In the meantime, Meggs says he does support calls for a Hogan’s Alley memorial near the Georgia Viaduct, and with the city currently toying with the idea of tearing down the freeway vestige, the opportunity could arise in a possible future neighbourhood that would be built at that site.
“The potential for recreating a neighbourhood there is very exciting,” he says, “but we have to move carefully and make sure everyone understands what’s going on.”
The area under the viaduct is ripe for some sort of historical acknowledgement, Meggs added, since it has been the sit of several historically relevant decisions in the city’s life.
“It’s an important part of Vancouver history and there’s a whole generation that are unaware of it. Many people are unaware that the viaducts were part of a freeway system that was rejected, and they’re also unaware that Vancouver’s black community had its heart right there underneath the viaduct,” he says.
For Compton, a memorial in the area would be the first step in a long journey to have black history recognized, but it might just make the process easier. “As it is right now, we’re fighting this uphill battle,” he says. “You’re asking for funding for something, but at the same time, you’re telling people for the first time that this thing existed.
Owls have spectacular binocular vision allowing them to pinpoint prey and see in low light. The eyes of Great Horned Owls are nearly as large as those of humans and are immobile within their circular bone sockets. Instead of turning their eyes, they turn their heads. Therefore, their neck must be able to turn a full 270 degrees in order to see in other directions without moving its entire body.
An owl's hearing is as good – if not better – than its vision; they have better depth perception[citation needed] and better perception of sound elevation (up-down direction) than humans. This is due to owl ears not being placed in the same position on either side of their head: the right ear is typically set higher in the skull and at a slightly different angle. By tilting or turning its head until the sound is the same in each ear, an owl can pinpoint both the horizontal and vertical direction of a sound.
These birds hunt at night by waiting on a high perch and swooping down on prey. Prey is varied. Predominantly small to medium-sized mammals such as hares, rabbits, racoons, rats, squirrels, mice, moles, voles, marmots, shrews, bats, armadillos, weasels and gerbils. It's even a natural predator of porcupines and skunks (like most birds it has poor sense of smell). Birds also comprise a large portion of a Great Horned Owl's diet, ranging in size from kinglets to Great Blue Herons. Waterbirds, especially coots and ducks, are hunted; even raptors, up to the size of Snowy Owls, are sometimes taken. The owls sometimes eat farmers' chickens and small to medium and largish dogs. But reptiles, amphibians, fish, crustaceans and even insects only count for occasional prey. Cannibalism has been recorded.
These birds also have 500 pounds per square inch of crushing power in their talons. An average adult human male has about 60 pounds per square inch in his hands. In northern regions, where larger prey that cannot be eaten quickly are most prevalent, they may let uneaten food freeze and then thaw it out later using their own body heat. They also tend to eat and regurgitate food in the same locations.

This project is focused on two psychosocial phenomenas: twinning and the cheerleader effect, which catalyze our perception of aesthetics. It aims to highten their impact by grouping together models with similar features, through the use of specific garments, all while creating a social link and an orthogonal composition. Twinning relies on a mirroring effect. It affirms one’s identity through mutual approval. Similar to this, the cheerleader effect, (or group attractiveness effect), is the cognitive bias which causes people to think individuals are more attractive when they are in a group. The perception of beauty enhances with the way the image is composed, through the use of universal aesthetic codes such as: symmetry, unity and repetition.
