Persistence came to life with help from Dan Cormier & Janice Abarbanel ebooks. Thank you!

Set on board a deep space scientific vessel called The Persistence in the year 2521, the ship arrives at the site of a collapsing star 17,000 light years from earth. While conducting a major experiment, a horrific incident occurs mutating many of the crew. As The Persistence is pulled into the gravity of the collapsing star, the ship’s computer, ‘IRIS’ wakes remaining members of the crew from cryogenic sleep – one at a time. Can you stay alive long enough to get to the engine room and save The Persistence?

Here's the device I started out with. You're supposed to twirl it over

your head and the blinking LEDs form letters. By the way, the unit I used is called The Skyliner.

One problem remained. The buttons needed to be held in place over the

main chip. This is when the idea to put the components in a golf ball

box arose.

Persistence pays off. I overnighted in Oregon in order to try again for the Burrowing Owls early in the morning. Easy to find so early in the morning. Also, later in the season, they get mobbed by Brewer's Blackbirds. So I took too many photos...

Finally! The components were extracted from the traditional case by

breaking a couple soldered joints and applying some carefully placed

force.

My persistence paid off! A truly candid reaction of the MU girls on the sideline when their teammates scored a big point

Jackie and Brooklyn Dodgers General Manager Branch Rickey shared a resolve to break down racial barriers and create opportunities and social change.

Persistence did not pay off for some LaRouche followers who were yap-yapping about how LaRouche can save the universe from the Baby Boomers, and how only he can save us all from imminent economic disaster – oh – and yeah – he will impeach Cheney too by the way.

 

I stopped to point out the Cheney-doings of Patrick Fitzgerald the United States attorney in Chicago.

 

This lady answered, "Who's Pat Fitzgerald?"

After unscrewing a couple screws, I was inside the fairly simple device.

Assignment: Create a photo that represents the idea of immortality.

 

Immortality...I thought about sunlight and other preconceived images and held them in my mind's eye, like a shopping list. I then went looking for an image to match the construct in my mind. So glad I was open to seeing something I didn't expect.

 

Other paths to immortality depart from here:

During our visit to the Dali Museum (One Dali Blvd., St. Petersburg), I took photos of some of the oil paintings on display. This work is titled The Disintegration of the Persistence of Memory.

 

A few details on this painting according to the museum's website:

 

The Disintegration of the Persistence of Memory

Salvador Dalí

1952-54

Oil on canvas

 

This painting features one of Dali's most popular images, the melting watch. In 1931, Dali painted his first melting watch. He said he was inspired one hot day while working in his studio when he noticed some runny Camembert cheese.

 

To Dali, the oozing cheese resembled a melting watch, so immediately he painted three melting watches on his canvas, capturing the public’s imagination for succeeding generations.

 

It is not clear why these melting watches are so startling and memorable, but they do suggest several powerful associations. They illustrate how time can be fluid, as in a dream. But a more essential and threatening association concerns our dependence upon clocks. The world runs by the clock – scheduling events is essential for life to function normally. If clocks melt, time becomes meaningless, and there is no way to control activities, leading to chaos.

 

Looking across the painting, what do you see? There are several images suggesting chaos, including the ocean fragmenting into atomic bits, its skin-like edge lifted to reveal a fish fluorescing. Yet there are other images that suggest continuity as well, particularly in the details of Dali's beloved Port Lligat landscape. Other questions arise – is the image disintegrating, or is it an expression of continuity? Is time interrupted, or is it fluid and elastic? Looking beneath the ocean's surface, do you discover disintegration or order? Dali leaves the answers to the viewer.

The motion sensor is a small spring that makes contact with a metal

ring around it when the device is in motion, and can shut off the LED

array if no motion is detected.

Essa foi a imagem usada para ilustrar o meu último videozinho de animação, feito com a parceira de Camila Torres.

 

Foi um trabalho de aprendizado e de descoberta. As falhas pode deixar que os próprios produtores já se cansaram de apontar, mas na época em que foi feito não teria como ter sido diferente mesmo, então temos é que curtir seus pequenos méritos =) Passou até no Vitória Cine Vídeo, por incrível que pareça!!
