Each day during the year, Flickr employs a 'secret' algorithm to select five hundred images for a daily-posted Explore page —all exemplifying some sort of 'interestingness.'
▶ During 2024, Flickr selected seventeen of my images for Explore:
☞ Percussionist in the green was my most viewed, at 10,310 views.
☞ Lanceleaf coreopsis (sepals & petals) was my most 'faved', with 282 'faves.'
☞ Tree falls into winter received the highest position (no. 78 out of 500), selected on 12 December 2024.

▶ WHAT IS EXPLORE?
"Explore is a Flickr feature with the intent of showing you 'some of the most awesome photos on Flickr.' Photos are automatically selected by computer according to a secret algorithm called Interestingness. The top 500 photos ranked by Interestingness are shown in Explore.
Flickr has stated that many factors go into calculating Interestingness: a photo's tags, how many groups the photo is in, views, favorites, where click-throughs are coming from, who comments on a photo and when, and more. The velocity of any of those components is a key factor. For example, getting 20 comments in an hour counts much higher than getting 20 comments in a week.
Is Explore a showcase for the top Flickr photographers? No. It's for photo viewers, not the photographers. It exists so that, at any moment, anyone who wants to view interesting photos can go to Explore and have a reasonable chance of seeing something interesting.
Does that imply that photographs not in Explore are uninteresting? Of course not. Many wonderful photos are uploaded to Flickr each day not selected for Explore. But, to serve its purpose, Explore only includes a small sampling of all of the photos on Flickr, showing photos from many different people to create a diverse selection."

PANO-Date Supplemental: While working with Photoshop layers that included a PANO shot at night, these dots popped up out of nowhere. They look to be the size of a 35mm negative strip but that, of course, would be impossible. Any ideas?
many might wonder.... what is kenny thinking here ?????
well... i took this shot during one insomniac night. i drove around and found an industrial harbor under a greenish bridge, not really a pretty scene i would say !!!
many contacts have mentioned about the "DONKEY" has changed it's diet lately, and some have purposely testing the "DONKEY" by uploading not so pretty photos.
somehow... i found it inspiring... so... i upload one too =P
explore or not, donkey ride or not .... doesn't really matter with our passion toward photography, don't you think so or don't you not? :D

I put together this chapbook of drawings I made using code I've written over several years. I've printed and bound a few at home, and mailed several out so far. I'm please with how it turned out. Let me know if you want one!
while waiting for the perfect shot at palazzo te, in the late afternoon of a perfect day, i turned to my left and spied this little detail in the column of an open portal to the walkway to the garden by the courtyard of the palace of long-ago royalty in the city called 'the sleeping beauty' ... she is all of that.

Nuit Blanche Toronto 2019 | Algorithm: Camille Rojas - Ryerson Artspace
Algorithm
Camille Rojas
Presented in partnership with Nuit Blanche Toronto
Algorithm is a 30-minute solo contemporary dance piece meditating on sexual discrimination in computer vision science; particularly, the algorithms behind removing images of breasts and vulvas online.
Currently, an overwhelming number of algorithms exist solely to detect these body parts – often deemed as “pornographic” – yet very few focus on censoring the phallus.
The choreography uses symbols and characters from various algorithms as a point of departure, one of which is the han character (凹) as it closely resembles the shape of a vulva (or “concave, hollow, depression” ¹).
Throughout the movements, the body, in its raw and fleshy form, interrogates these shapes from beyond the reach of algorithmic censorship.
Algorithm simultaneously celebrates censored body parts while highlighting the gender inequality that is extant in technology.

I wrote an algorithm for the laser that outputs cut and perforation vectors for a folding light tower with almost any dimension. The materials are watercolor paper and a little glue. The tower's top can be removed to expose a place to attach a magnetically fastened LED light and battery. The starfields require special calculations so that the light finds its way through two folds of paper.
Here they are with the lights on.
