This is an image of a derelict house with large street art graffiti on the front which is an elderly person with their head in their hands. In the foreground, there is the house itself with the graffiti image over the middle window. In the background, there are multiple tall skyscraper offices/flats that are completely identical. The focal point is definitely the house as it is dominating the image therefore catching your eye. I think the colours and tones of this image are intended to reflect the mood as they are very dull and lifeless.
As this is a digital, colour image and by looking at the new buildings in the background a relatively modern photograph, I would expect this image to have been taken on a digital/DSLR camera as it is well-focused. I definitely think the photographer used a tripod due to the angle of the image which is rather abstract and may have been difficult to shoot free hand. I think JR has used good depth of field in this image which again shows how the main focus is on the house in the foreground.
The atmosphere created in this photo is very mundane due to the dull colours and content of the image. I think the photographer had this intention to make me feel this way as I think the image has a negative meaning to make you feel uncomfortable or to make you think about the reality of the topic. The mood of this image definitely helps the photographer portray the meaning as it has many representations in the image eg. The derelict house to the skyscrapers.
I think the image is showing how society has become much more capitalized due to the vast amount of new skyscraper buildings that are being produced and sold at extortionate prices. This is portrayed through the angle of the camera showing the traditional but decrepit house with the modern building looming over it in the blurred background. I think the meaning of the graffiti is to highlight how elderly people that have experienced the previous generations are very ashamed of us as we as a whole, support the idea of capitalizing the world. I think JR definitely had these intentions as they wanted to address the sometimes ignored topic and show how our society has conformed to revolutionizing our way of living instead of actually stopping and enjoying life itself.
This image has been taken by JR who is a photographer and graffiti artist. JR's work combines art and action and deals with commitment, freedom, identity and limits. This image was taken around 2011 in France. I think my view on the meaning of this image definitely coincides with the photographer as JR is known for using photography to address social issues in the world at the time which for this image would be the capitalist movement. This image was presented at an exhibition in Paris along with other images from the ‘Inside Out’ series which I think helped convey the message as there were more images to push the meaning forward.
I am studying this image in my project for ‘Discovery and Transformation’ as it links with my theme idea of discovering locations and looking more in depth about what is around you and at how one cultured area can have a vast different to another place and culture in this case, London and France. This image has helped me create new ideas for my project as it has made me think about incorporating social issues in the place I’m shooting into my images to help convey a stronger message.
Day one hundred seventy-four/365. I love academia. I feel fulfilled when I'm learning and I love to teach others.
But, I also realize that critical thinking has its limits. Sometimes, we run the danger of "paralysis by analysis."
I just read an article about the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Some amazingly gifted people are students there.
But, the school has a requirement that's a special challenge for some of their most intelligent students. They require their graduates to know how to swim.
The author said that about half of the students jump in the water and get the swimming requirement out of the way early in their college career. Another percentage procrastinate. Some are afraid of the water. And when trying to learn to swim, people who are so gifted at math and engineering sometimes ask questions. At what angle should their arms enter the water? How far does one need to turn the head to get a breath without getting water in one's mouth?
Life guards find it difficult to convince some students to get in the water and just try it.
What things do we people of non-MIT material tend to over-think? What decisions are committees handling that could be completed more quickly and effectively by people who are willing to jump in the water and just try?
Thesis Data Analysis is not just the act of analyzing data with the help of statistical tools and application of a few tests. It is the complete process, starting with data collection, to data cleaning and arrangement. It ends with the interpretation of the results of the tests and simplification of the same for presentation.

The SESAME (Synchrotron-light for Experimental Science and Applications in the Middle East) Centre, is a “third-generation” synchrotron light source in Allan, Jordan, near Amman. The synchrotron facility is the Middle East’s first major international research centre for science applications. It is set for inauguration on 16 May 2017.
The Centre will focus on fostering innovative scientific and technological research in subjects ranging from biology, archaeology and medical sciences through basic properties of materials science, physics, chemistry, and life sciences.
The IAEA provides significant support to the Sesame project in training and sharing expertise, as well as facilitating the networking of SESAME staff with other global research facilities, thus enabling possibilities for scientific exchanges.

As guest Signmaker at the Monterey Whole Foods Market, I was asked to highlight holiday pies in particular for this 48" long hanging chalkboard at the front of the store. With my affinity towards cinnamon, I applied crimson particulate liberally.

In this shot the aesthetics of a sterilized environment couples itself with a tidy, rigid frontal frame. The product is a suggestion of order and precision. Such portrayal of regularity and emotive disinterest is further reinforced by the candid productivity of the three subjects present, and who incidentally, also happen to loiter on the thirds of the frame – the pillars of structural composition. Thought subtle, one can also see that the base of the image reveals the seams of a glass partition. This feature of the shot adds a layer of concept through what could be referred to as self-referential composition. Casting the viewer with the role of a voyeur or arbiter to the image’s events.
Some forensic analysis of the jib failure, for those of you who might be interested.
The guy wires are supported by a 3' horizontal piece of square tubing, which was elevated by a pair of 3' steel strips, making a cross or "t" shape. In any event, I foolishly thought most of the stresses on the vertical portion would be from front-to-back, not side-to-side, so there wasn't much lateral support...
Unfortunately, I hadn't thought through the fact that the camera and pulleys (for the pan/tilt control) would both be exerting quite a bit of tension on the left side of the boom... so much so that it bent the poorly supported vertical strips.
The intended alignment of the vertical strips is indicated by the faint red lines in the inset.
The camera and lens are fine, although things got pretty hairy for a minute.
Derived from a year’s worth of observation and analysis, Brentano’s 2013 color forecast pinpoints six colors that will shape interior design in the coming year. More than any other factor, color—and these colors specifically—guide the Brentano Design Studio and the collections they develop for 2013 and beyond.
“We are very meticulous about color,” says Brentano Design Director Iris Wang, who is already developing colors for 2014. “We look at what colors are selling for us, and that analysis reveals some trends. Then there are trends in fashion, car colors, packaging colors, and special requests from designers; I use all of these indicators as a reconfirmation of what I foresee for interiors.”
Unlike fashion where trends are temporary, changes in interior design tend to be more subtle, often relying on a base of neutral hues. For their fourth annual color forecast, the Brentano Design Studio selected Graphite and Linen, two complex neutrals first forecast for 2012, to carry through into the new year. The classic Marine from 2012 will intensify into a rich Sapphire in 2013, Brentano predicts, and be joined by Periwinkle, an extremely beautiful color with the versatility of a neutral. Two new vibrant hues, Raspberry and Saffron, will also pop up in 2013, the epitome of drama and luxurious, saturate color.

OK, I'm a nerd. I obsessively ponder and analyze the personal fit of my bicycles. Having settled upon my Boulder as the analysis "control" because it meets my personal fit criteria better than any other bike ever has, I've set up a controlled visual comparison of the geometry. Using a static, controlled camera position and a controlled location for each subject, I've photographed several of the bikes I ride on a regular basis. In a digital imaging application I've traced the primary lines of geometry, points of contact, and spacing from my Boulder. That drawing has been layered on top of each bike for comparison, and then each bike repositioned to align with the bottom bracket of the Boulder. At a glance, there isn't a lot of difference in points of contact. Reach is not exact, but similar. Saddle position, the same story. Spacing is significantly different, as is trail. Once again, it's startling how very small differences can make for a completely different cockpit and ride experience over distance, road conditions, and time in the saddle.
The Lyon continues to be a bit of an enigma for me. Despite an almost identical configuration to my Boulder in terms of spacing and contact points, I've yet to feel like I've "nailed" the set up. First off, there is a nagging "ting ting ting" that sounds like it's coming from the brand spanking new bottom bracket. This is far from my first rodeo, and I know that weird sounds are almost never actually coming from that location. I'm exhausting all the possibilities first: saddle, seat pin, pedals, crank, crank bolts, headset, and so on. But sometimes, a duck really is a duck, and after a weekend of riding on smooth paths so I could test all the options, I've come to the conclusion that I have a bad bottom bracket. Spinning up to speed is a chore, so maybe it's binding under load. My wheel set might also need to have the hubs serviced. Long story short: This bike should feel a lot racier than it does. In my mind it's an issue with something in the set up that I haven't yet identified. It's frustrating, to be honest, and that frustration means I cannot yet make a fair comparison to my Boulder.

SPECIAL THANKS TO JENNIFER KUNDAK FOR SUPPLYING THIS ORIGINAL IMAGE.
I recently visited Jennifer and her way cool hubby and son at their home in rural Michigan with a backyard that's to die for!
We had UWP Show and Tell, and she sent me off with a GIANT BOX OF PRIMO UWP STUFF including this picture.
Recreations of recent work, just to tinker with new texturing ideas. Trite, maybe, but an informative exercise.
The carnivorous plant hops off the pedestal as the batarang sinks into it's hardened husk. A moment later it explodes into flames. You could hear it cry out in pain before it ceases to move. Batman lowers his cape before I realize he had shielded me. And they say romance is dead. Robin makes his way behind us with a fire extinguisher.
