Finding life on other planets (Aliens!) is a tantalising prospect that occupies our daydreams. And yet with the constant onslaught of new technology are we fast approaching a time when it could become a reality? To humans, the idea of being alone in a Universe at least 10 to 13 billion light years across is disconcerting. The philosophical ramifications of being alone in such an overwhelming expanse of spacetime cannot be overstated. Given everything we know about the current rate of star and planetary formation, however, it would seem illogical that we should be the only sentient beings in the Universe. And given what we do know about the structure of life here on Earth and of molecules found thus far in the interstellar medium, it would appear that carbon could be the key to life's development anywhere in the Universe. While we can only continue to speculate about the extraterrestrial development of life and intelligence, we do know that carbon production is based on the rate of star formation. Estimates by the Hubble Space Telescope strongly suggest that carbon production peaked almost 7 billion years ago. Given the time span necessary for biological evolution as we know it, some theorists now believe that it is highly unlikely that the Universe could have seen the first carbon-based intelligent life any sooner than 3 billion years ago, or when the Universe was already more than 10 billion years old. In other words, the evolution of extraterrestrial intelligent life could be a very "recent" cosmic phenomenon. In fact, as Mario Livio from the Space Telescope Science Institute and Charles Lineweaver from the University of New South Wales in Sydney have both pointed out, the Universe may only just be awakening to an epoch of intelligent life. As Lineweaver has noted, at this stage in our own development, it is impossible to know whether we have come late or early to the cosmic party, but in the long history of our Universe, we might be relative newcomers.
If there are extraterrestrial civilizations capable of communicating as we do, shouldn't it follow that the same basic physics also held for their evolution? Life as we know it, has its best chance of developing on an Earth-like, fast-rotating planet in orbit around a Sun-like star, which has a hydrogen-burning phase that would provide a stable environment for life to evolve. And even with those parameters in place, ETs would likely emerge only after their home world had developed some sort of genetic code. They would also have to become cognizant enough to communicate with each other. Yet in order to communicate over interstellar distances, extraterrestrials would first have to overcome the gravity of their own planet. In order to communicate with us, as Seth Shostak of the SETI Institute frequently points out, they would have to develop the dexterity to build technology and telescopes.
If they chose radio, they could easily overcome the universal cacophony of background noise in the electromagnetic microwave region (1,000 to 100,000 megahertz). Just above the terrestrial TV and FM bands, it is relatively quiet. There, only a trace of background radiation from the Big Bang remains. (This is an effect anyone can hear in the form of soft constant static when flipping the dials on an FM radio.) However, the pursuit of ET in the radio spectrum has a short history. Although decades, even centuries earlier, there were many ideas about how to signal or find extraterrestrial civilizations, the genesis of modern SETI really began only some 40 years ago.

Some video fun with a pattipan squash. Very spur of the moment, as I had to cook dinner right after i was finished with the squash.
Variation of a text-prompt generation in AI Deep Dream. The text contained the words ALIEN and GIGER.
The option of Text Prompt is a new feature on Deep Dream.
it was worth a try - but a previously created image on Night Cafe marginally improved with better definition, but fewer details.
Did you see the green light in the cockpit. I always know. Airbus hires Aliens for there test flights ;-)
I think the green light comes from the head up display. What are you thinking?
In the near future, humanity has established a surprising and peaceful contact with an extraterrestrial civilisation. These aliens, whose technological level far surpasses our own, have granted us access to advanced technology with the potential to revolutionise all aspects of our world. Among the many gifts they have brought are a series of mysterious devices and toys that particularly captivate children – especially girls.
These alien devices appear to activate a form of direct communication with the girls' minds. It is as if they resonate with their brains, transmitting an infinite stream of knowledge. The girls become astonishingly intelligent, their understanding spanning from advanced physics to poetic interpretations of the universe. Yet a shadow of uncertainty remains: What is the purpose of this knowledge? What consequences will it have for them and for us as a society? Is this resonance a bridge between species, a collaboration, or something deeper and more enigmatic? While we ponder these questions, we choose to let the girls continue their play, both fascinated and apprehensive about what the future may hold.
This image series explores this fascinating and mysterious encounter between the girls and their new toys. It is a visual narrative of curiosity, technology, and the unknown.
Poem: "Resonance"
They came with light,no demands, no demands.The voices of their technology spokethrough the stars,a whisper in the mind.
The girls' hands reachedfor the alien objects,and with each touchcame a stream of universesthrough their minds.
Is it knowledge or a riddle?Is it freedom or destiny?They laugh, they learn,while we watchand wait for answers.
Haikus
Stars burn bright above,
mystic hands bring minds to sing
in unison's hum.
Girls' wide eyes glimmer,
knowledge flows like endless streams
through time's hidden paths.
Play births creation,
alien voices murmur
secrets to their hands.
Peace from the beyond,
technology’s dance now rests
in the girls' small palms.
What is their intent?
A gift or a subtle test?
We choose still to see.
I do miss my skateboarding days.
These are old images taken probably in 2009 when I still have my old Fujifilm camera.
This is the Alien sidekick of the Alien in the other picture. Beware. Not only the bones from the pelvic girdle.. but also the cartilage that goes from the sternum to the ribs.... oooooooh..
So I have lots of time at school... or not really but I'm quite creative during the breaks..
