"Architextures" is a series of composite images. Each image is a mashup of multiple photographs. At least one of the sources is of an architectural subject, anything from closeup walls or windows to broad cityscapes. The added images provide texture or pattern. In some, the architectural forms are preserved and obvious. In others, the pictures become pure abstractions. Yet in all of them, the inherent geometry, angles, lines, and repetitions of the architecture are essential to the geometry and esthetics of the final image. Most of the source images used for this series are already posted in this photostream. The links to the original and source images are listed below.

 

The City Lights images are a composition of strongly geometrical views of architectural subjects in Atlanta, Georgia. They have been mashed up and ganged together to create a sense of a vibrant illuminated high rise city at different times of night. Are these views of city center, the shopping district, an office district, or a red light district? Is this downtown, the tenements, uptown, or the theater and night club scene? Is it peak hours, last call, or the wee hours? Are people going out, or coming home? Is this a modern high rise city, like New York, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore, or Sao Paulo? Or, is this Batman’s or Dick Tracy’s 1930’s Gotham, or Friz Lang’s Metropolis, or Frank Miller's Sin City? How do these mashups speak to you?

 

The images used for City Lights are the following.

tearsofsaturn: The Sight by David Clement-Davies is my all time favourite fiction book. Cosmos by Carl Sagan and The Lost Explorer by Conrad Anker & David Roberts are some good non-fiction. I'd also recommend This Movie Will Require Dinosaurs by C.W. Neill if you're looking for something a bit more humourous.

 

lubna.780: I recommend reading The Normal Heart by Larry Kramer, it's a play and it's a really good read

 

architexture_yeg: @starrjun thank you!
