To commemorate its 100th anniversary, IBM commissioned a unique public exhibition called THINK. The exhibition is an examination and a celebration of the human approach to understanding and improving the world through science and technology.
Upon entering the exhibition, visitors pass an LED wall showing live data feeds in vivid color. Once inside, visitors encounter a glowing forest of screens. A breathtaking film charts man’s patterns of progress and understanding. Sosolimited programmed the five interactives that appear on the screens at the end of the film. These interactives explore the history of our progress through Seeing, Mapping, Understanding, Believing, and Acting.
The interactives are visually striking and intuitive, providing visitors with an expansive collection of images, stories, and interviews. These multitouch software applications were designed to seamlessly display large collections of data at high frame rates. We developed the software with OpenFrameworks libraries.
The project was a collaboration between SYPartners, Ralph Applebaum & Associates, George P Johnson, Mirada, and Sosolimited.

Women Rewarded Solar Lights for Adult Literacy
Solar Lantern Distribution To Adult Women PEP TANDOALLAHYAR Oct12th, 2017
Pakistan has one of the lowest literacy rates in the world. The general understanding of literacy in Pakistan is the ability to read and write and unluckily, millions of people in Pakistan are dispossessed of even this. The situation seems even worse when we look into the urban-rural divide. In rural Sindh, women are most deprived of education due to cultural customs which has created gender inequality and has deprived women to have a voice in the society. Through Adult Literacy Education, Primary Education project PEP is on to change that.
Female Adult Literacy program was initiated in 2016. At present PEP is running 26 Female Adult Literacy (FAL) Centers with 316 Female Adult Literacy members (Adult Students) in different areas of rural Sindh as follows,
Khipro48
Mirpurkhas47
Khawaja Goth7
Tando Allahyar80
Tando Ghulam Ali134
There are 6 area officers and 1 WEP coordinator for the implementing and monitoring of the adult literacy program.
As a gesture of appreciation Pervaiz Lodhie President and founder LEDtronics Inc. offered a special gift of a Solar Powered LED Solar Light to the 316 student and 7 program officers.
Funding for the solar lights was provided by one of gentleman from USA. His name is not mentioned here on his advice.
First distribution ceremony was held on Thursday October 12, 2017 in Shaleemabad, Achaar Khaskeli & Shanti Nagar ALCs located in Tando Allahyar districts.
Lt. Gen (Retd.) Syed Perwaiz Shahid a renowned educationist was chief guest for the event.
Ms. Lillian Charles Program Manager PEP and other team members from PEP were present in the event.
During the ceremony 72 female students received solar lanterns. PEP will organize another event in Hyderabad for the distribution of remaining solar lights in November 2017.

Reminds me of the joke where the lecturer asks the student, if he can see the person under-standing the tree..
AAW Assignment-Soft Focus
It is my understanding that ALL early cameras had soft lens just because the technique of grinding was so imprecise. Now you have to buy a special "soft" filter to tone down the sharpness and get the same "soft focus" effect..Go Figure...
WIT: I read somewhere that a "soft " filter is a good way to defuse the sharp edges of a photograph's white highlights and still keep the sharp detail of areas surrounding it. With that in mind, I put a Star Filter on the camera and then placed my "Soft Nylon Stocking Filter" over the top of that.
This home made "Stocking" filter has definitely softened the rays created by the star filter however it has created some domestic problems.

I feel all the elements of the brief are here but they are pretty complex and I'll leave the viewer to tease it all out. This is an exhibition named "behind the wire". Artists are current prison inmates who sign up for art/creative expression classes. The venue is the previous labour prison which closed 1979. Outcomes are considered positive: proceeds contentious.
Some money to victims program, some to course costs and 50% to artist
