Dynamically generated utility poles with randomly generated powerlines. Initial study for a project Id like to flesh out to include a large variety of poles, consistent wire creation that spans several nodes, the occasional flock of lazy birds, and audio responsiveness.

 

Test video to come soon.

Can you guess which direction the wind was blowing during the last hurricane.

This is one of those set ups where the regulators are set up on three consecutive poles.

An older Entergy line that was upgraded to accomodate the new substation

Taken with my Panasonic GF1 with a Pentax-M 50mm f/1.7 lens, using an adapter from fotodiox.

These old LP&L poles (now Entergy) have been out of use for years. They run into the swamps of Southeastern LA. With no maintenance these were easily damaged during Hurricane Gustav last year.

Powerline, Peary Street, Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia

These were all built with very thick single crossarms for deadends.

No wind at all. Even the stars are reflected in the water.

See where this picture was taken. [?]

Half-assed award nominee. This is a powerline that would be laying across the road outside my parent's neighborhood, if not for the length of PVC pipe.

This was built by Mississippi Power when they came help Cleco rebuild after Hurricane Lili in 2002.

These are both Cleco's lines. The distribution lines in the foreground used to belong to a small cooperative called Teche Coop. Cleco bought them out in the 90's.

10000 block of Aurora Avenue N, Seattle WA

The area under this powerline right of way is part of the Lorance Creek Natural Area. It is regularly cleared of trees and other tall woody vegetation, allowing prairie and open area species to flourish.

 

There is a constant low crackle and hum under the powerline. You stop hearing it after a few minutes.

Black and white is hard to get away from during the winter time. To me, winter IS the epitome of "Black and White"....

 

This is one of my favorite subjects to photograph. This is what I'm going to school for. Power. More specifically solar energy.

 

I finally bought some B&W film to use in Robert's old Minolta SLR camera. I cannot wait to use it and see what I get out of it :) :) :)
