This is an image from my "watergrams" series. This is a cameraless image, made in a wet darkroom. Nothing digital about this, except for the selective toning to separate the female body from all the rest.
Just a little experiment. Looks better if you view in the lightbox: Click here

Wow - privatize your account and folks come out of everywhere to say 'let me in'.

Heligan House, the former centrepiece of the Gardens of Heligan, now believed to be flats and not part of the Gardens.
The first large building at Heligan, near Mevagissey in Cornwall, was a manor house constructed in the 13th century, but the gardens date from the 18th century, first noted in 1766. For many years the gardens were developed extensively, with a Chinese Garden and an Italian Garden amongst others, but all came to an abrupt end upon the outbreak of war in August 1914. The shelterbelt trees were cut down for the war effort, the house became a convalescent home, almost all of the staff went off to war, and the gardens went untended and soon became overgrown.
The much quoted "it's an ill wind that blows nobody any good" really applies here as it was the devasting storm (the so-called hurricane) of October 1990 that revealed the first clue as to what had been here and set in train a process that is ongoing. Since then, the work of many dedicated people, paid and unpaid, has recreated much of what the gardens once were, in an ongoing project that is the largest garden restoration in Europe.

I’m streaming The Gravedigger’s Meditation at my website - www.drawclose.com - through Feb. 28. After that, it will disappear into the land of ‘password protected screener’ as I work to get it shown elsewhere.
The Overcoat : Gogol’s story of a poor, quiet copyist who finagles a new overcoat in the bitterest of Russian winters. Then, it is stolen; what was a blessing becomes a disaster. Vladimir Nabokov said of Gogol: "When, as in the immortal The Overcoat, he really let himself go and pottered on the brink of his private abyss, he became the greatest artist that Russia has yet produced.”
This animation - - yes, I did steal images of overcoats from the internet in order to make it … The piece is also a meditation on the role of copying, language-as-object, record-keeping, and technology to a community’s memory. Yeah there may be a wink at the commodification of appearances but you know, the first rule of capitalist materialism is you don’t talk about how it works.
Animation frankensteined together in Adobe AfterEffects from parts created with QT7, Processing, and Quartz Composer. Audio created & mixed in Apple Logic, better with headphones.
The Ostwald process involves reacting ammonia with the oxygen in air to produce nitrogen dioxide. The nitrogen dioxide then reacts with water to produce nitric acid. The process requires a platinnum catalyst which glows red hot because the process is highly exothermic (releases a lot of heat energy). Photographed on 26 June 2006.
