We'd been driving around so much from shopping area to shopping area and inbetween, always.. was beautiful countryside, rolling fields and blue mountains..one of them Sugar Loaf. Trouble was..every time I thought " I should be drawing this ( whizzing past in the car!!)..it had vanished. So finally, I prepared for it..with the sketchbook open on my lap and all to the ready..to catch it in that minute or two before it had gone again. I didn't manage much but I got the feel plus a touch of colour to help my memory. I added to it as soon as we got home..while it was still fresh in my memory..then added the text.

Not much story to tell. In fact, none. I saw Lauren sitting just like this today and everything clicked. The color of the handicap ramp, the door, the vape pen... everything. She asked me what I wanted her to do for the picture. "Don't move, just look at me. And please don't smile." I'm not sure I had to tell her the last part, but better safe than sorry. And besides, she was a sweetheart for letting a stranger take her picture.

Ross's Geese Take Flight, Dusk. Central Valley, California. February 8, 2012. © Copyright 2012 G Dan Mitchell - all rights reserved.

 

A flock of Ross's geese take flight at dusk above a Central Valley pond, California.

 

Yes, another photograph of geese taking flight above a California Central Valley pond. I can't help myself! :-) After photographing the dwindling flock, as they left in large groups during the hour before sunset, at the point of most beautiful light there were only a few left. This group was among the very last to depart from this pond, and at this point it was dusk and the colors had gone from the crisp blues of an hour earlier to warm pinks and reds and purples. We were lucky enough to be very close to this large flock for at least an hour.

 

I'll use this photograph to make another technical observation. I made what might seem like an odd choice regarding exposure for this shot. Here I wanted to try to stop the motion of the birds as they lifted off. (In other photographs of this subject I intentionally allow the motion to blur.) This meant that I needed a relatively short shutter speed. Even after raising the ISO to 400 and opening up the largest aperture on this long lens, the result was still going to be underexposure. for what I had in mind for this sequence of shots, I wanted to avoid using an ultra-high ISO with the attendant increase in noise. So I choose to deliberately underexpose these shots by perhaps a couple of stops, trusting that I'd be able to compensate for this in post since I shoot in raw mode. In other words, if you are the sort who scans EXIF data for exposure information and then tries to make sense out of it or even use it yourself... you have been warned! :-)

Ever thought of flipping through e-codices manuscript pages on your iPad or iPhone? As of June 2013, all e-codices manuscripts can be viewed in their entirety in an app for iPhone and iPad, available for free at: bit.ly/e-codicesApp

 

Some of the things you can do with the app:

 

- Search and browse almost 1,000 manuscripts, including selected highlights

- Bookmark single pages within manuscripts

- Bookmark manuscripts and build your own library („MyCodices“)

- Download entire manuscripts and view them offline

 

Prof. Christoph Flüeler, director of e-codices, explains why he thinks an app for digitized manuscripts is important:

„Nowadays, most manuscript scholars own and travel with a smartphone. Even though the possibilities to use an iPhone are seemingly endless, this personal digital assistant is hardly used for scholarly work in the Humanities yet. Our goal was to take full advantage of these possibilities and create a mobile application that would serve as a scholarly working tool.“

 

And what does Christoph like best about the new app? „I can access the full range of manuscripts on e-codices and create my own library under MyCodices with which I can work offline, when I don’t have an internet connection, such as on an airplane or at a remote location. But I also like the playful component: browsing through a manuscript on the iPad is simply fun.“ (taken from: e-codices Newsletter June 2013, Issue N° 11).

 

The e-codices iPhone and iPad app was developed by Jérémie Blaser and Rafael Schwemmer for text & bytes LLC and e-codices, and is available on the App Store for free. If you find the app useful, please consider making a donation to support the development of future updates and improvements.

Anonymous - The Strange Tale of Ten Little Nigger Boys

The Pixie Series

M.A. Donohue, 1908

Illustrations by "The Pilgrims"

 

The text is based on the London Stump Book version of this counting rhyme. Illustrated in colour on every page by The Pilgrims. A title in the Pixie Series.

 

Ten little nigger boys going out to dine

One over-ate himself and then there were nine.

 

Nine little nigger boys stopping up late

One over-slept himself and then there were eight.

 

Eight little nigger boys fishing down in Devon

One got left behind and then there were seven.

 

Seven little nigger boys chopping up sticks

One chopped himself in half and then there were six.

 

Six little nigger boys playing with a hive

A bumble bee stung one and then there were five.

 

Five little nigger boys going to law

One got in Chancery and then there were four.

 

Four little nigger boys going out to sea

A red herring swallowed one and then there were three.

 

Three little nigger boys going to the Zoo

The big bear hugged one and then there were two.

 

Two little nigger boys sitting in the sun

One got frizzled up and then there was one.

 

One little nigger boy led a lonely life

So he got married to a pretty little wife.

 

William Andrew Pogány (1882-1955) was born in Hungary, studied art in Budapest, and worked in Paris briefly before moving to London in 1905 where he worked as a book illustrator for ten years. He moved to New York in 1915 and had success as a book illustrator and designer of stage sets and hotel interiors. “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” is one of Pogany’s best-known books. It is a bold artistic experiment in unifying text and images. Every page is elaborately decorated in Pogany’s distinctive style, which attempts to recreate a medieval illuminated manuscript. He was responsible for the beautiful calligraphic text, green and mauve page decorations and borders, and the many black and white drawings and tipped-in plates in full color.

One of the big changes in bus travel in the 1970s was the change from most buses having a driver and a conductor, to 'one-man' operation (lady bus drivers were very few and far between). The group of bus services between Sale and Moston changed over on 2 March 1970 to buses where instead of giving money to the driver, you inserted 6d (sixpence) coins into one of two machines located beyond the entrance. Buses with this system had a big yellow and black symbol to show 'coin in the slot' and it's seen here just left of the 'will change to one-man operation' text. But it's doubtful that people realised what the rather stylised symbol meant, leading to delays as people fumbled for change. But also the machines were prone to breakdown and with the driver unable to check who had paid at the machines behind him, fare evasion became a serious problem.

 

So the machines didn't last long, but the Museum of Transport's preserved 'Mancunian' bus 1001 still has the yellow and black symbol on the front and the distinctive red ticket machines inside.

The ironic twist of using a Stone Age (via 1962) camera design to craft a futurist camera concept is what I am using to celebrate with style my twins' 9-month mark today. Although C+A stands for Cameron and Audrey, we'll settle for "cyber-age" to be germane to our design concept.

 

With the imminent Microsoft voice-controlled camera technology already patented, this camera is not far off at all from being usable and today can still function simply has a fashion accessory.

 

This remake and upgrade of the Polarock Camera used in the 1962 Flintstones episode, "Flashgun Freddie" Is made of lightweight, cementitious, foamed concrete panels to allow the user to carry this and move with ease as often seen in Flintstones episodes.

 

The stacked double-dice cube design and openings into the camera body allow two views: the top view is a light, airy environment typical of a Rolleiflex type of viewing hood, and the lower view is of a heavy gravitas feeling of a Louis Kahn Interior.

 

Sequence of operation:

1. Hold the camera steady and frame the subject.

2. Open the upper back hatch door and view the image projected against the TLR screen from the viewing lens. Note here that there are two viewing screens: the second one is in front of the bird and represents the image the bird "sees" and has to reproduce, however the protruding digital surveillance camera lens of the bird does not need this second image; the user sees this second image through the mesh-screened hatch door.

3. Clicking the shutter button automatically opens the lower hatch door prompting user to speak a voice command to the Mechanical bird. "Alright Mack, we're ready" Is the programmed voice command to use. Each voice command will be accompanied by an appropriate response from bird's body loudspeaker. At the opening of the hatch door the Bird will automatically say, "Yeah, whaddaya want?"

4. User will hear a brief clip of bird pecking sounds for about 60 seconds (the digital photograph has already been taken from camera residing in the head assembly of the bird), so the time interval is simply a delay for the Polaprinter to make the 2"x3" print

5. At any time if the user says any voice commands like "Hurry up" or "Come on Mack", he will hear an instant reply from the bird while its wings slightly lift up-and-down but the printing process will just continue. Estimated printing time is 60 to 75 seconds.

6. Photo comes out of the printer in a characteristic Stone Age quality and accuracy. Use of a tripod or placement on the floor for baby pictures is highly recommended.

 

As almost all of my camera designs have social functions in the style of architectural ideals, this particular design also follows this tenet: the social function of this miniature architectural design to street photography is simply that the street photographer can evolve away from his solipsistic tendencies ("the camera is an extension of your arm", "the viewfinder is an extension of your eye") by concentrating on and communicating with the bird.

detail of a portrait of William Shakespeare made out of text from his sonnets

{Around the relief portrait bust:}

1747 Iolo Morganwg 1826

Y gwir yn erbyn y byd

The truth against the world

{In an outer ring:}

This is the site of the first meeting of the Gorsedd of the Bards of the Isle of Britain 22.6.1792.

Yma y cyfarfu Gorsedd Beirdd Ynys Prydain gyntaf

{Welsh text says roughly the same as the English.}

Edward Williams, better known by his bardic name Iolo Morganwg, (10 March 1747 – 18 December 1826) was an influential Welsh antiquarian, poet, collector, and literary forger. He was widely considered a leading collector and expert on medieval Welsh literature in his day, but after his death it was revealed that he had forged a large number of his manuscripts. Regardless, he had a lasting impact on Welsh culture, seen most notably in his foundation of the Gorsedd, and the philosophy he developed in his forgeries had a huge impact on the early neo-druid movement. His bardic name is Welsh for "Iolo of Glamorgan" (the county's name is spelt "Morgannwg" in modern Welsh). Iolo is the diminutive of "Iorwerth", a Welsh name often seen as equivalent to "Edward", although neither name is a translation of the other.

 

The /|\ means Awen, representing three rays of light emanating from three points of light & symbolises, among other things, the triple nature of the Druid path, incorporating the paths of Bard, Ovate and Druid.
