Created for a Photo essay project

Created by [CIRCA] for the new event - the Monochromatic Fair with custom colours. 8 Fabric colour mixes in the swing sofa & double sofa. 10 fabrics for the chairs. 3 colours of woods. I went with 2 mono blue colour families; blues on the purple side...so indigo....and blues on the green side...so ocean/sea colourings. Lots of animations built into the sitting pieces as well.

So the other day, I showed where to find the App Store located on Macs. Well, today, I want to show how it's possible to create a self contained app, which actually shows up in your Dock using the iPhone App Store logo and everything, as you can see in the pic above.

 

The first thing you need to do is download Fluid:

 

fluidapp.com/

 

Fluid is a cool free app that allows you to make apps out of web pages. You'll also need the iPhone App Store icon. Joshia Della at DeviantArt has one here:

 

joshladella005.deviantart.com/art/iPhone-icons-91004527

 

Okay, now that you have downloaded all the necessary components, open up Fluid and you should see the same dialog as above. First, paste in the url of Apple's download page. In this case it is:

 

http://www.apple.com/downloads/

 

Paste that in to the "URL" dialog. Next, you're going to fill in the "Name" dialog with "App Store" or "Mac App Store" or whatever name you want to give to this app.

 

Leave the "Location" dialog at its default of "Applications." Okay, in the "Icon" dialog, navigate to the PNG folder located inside the icon folder provided by Joshia Della and click on the "Applications" icon or whatever icon you prefer.

 

Now click "Create" and Fluid will ask you if you want to "Launch Now." Go ahead and click it because there's one more thing you need to do to make sure this is a self-contained app.

 

Go to the Preferences menu in your newly created app and go to the "Advanced" dialog. Inside, you will click on "Allow Browsing to Any Url." This option allows you to open up any link in the App itself. Otherwise, whenever you hit a link, it will automatically open up Safari or Firefox or whichever your default web browser might be.

 

That's all. Enjoy your new Mac App Store.

  

ProTip: When choosing icons for Fluid always use PNG files instead of JPEG. PNG files allow Alpha Channels, which is a big deal when part of the icon needs to be transparent. JPEGs don't allow this.

South Hovel

 

Originally built by the descendants of the O'Caelie family over 300 years ago as a small farmer's cottage in the forests outside Carlow, Ireland, the South Hovel house was recently opened to the public after several months' worth of conversion to a place of business. Although now selling top-of-the-line scooters, the a priority of the O'Caelies was to preserve the cottage's history and character. As such, they chose not to modernize it, but rather continued to play off its quaint, rustic style to promote a shop that straddles both the romantic past and the economical present.

Lab created opal wedding ring set with blue topaz accents set in stainless steel. His and hers rings with matching blue green lab grown opal inlay in stainless steel mountings. Styles MD252 and CS004.

Created using the Fractal Science Kit fractal generator.

Epitaph-

I created this image 7 years ago today, it was the most challenging and painful image I had ever made. I worked on it relentlessly for days, I blacked out on more than one occasion while drawing and woke up to find entire sections developed without any memory making the marks myself. Every drawing I had ever made prior to this image felt like a pre-amble that was training me for this moment in time.No single image could ever do justice to Tiffa's spirit. Tiffa's life and her death were powerful teachers, and years later I am still processing the lessons. I am so grateful I was fortunate enough to know and love her in this lifetime.

Created and folded by redpaper (seo won seon).

one uncut square.

One of the highlights of the SSS Create event this weekend was getting to see Ava again in person!

Playing around trying to make some storyboard templates. This one was inspired by Joyce Smith's hopscotch storyboard. Not sure if the ratios are right on mine??

I may just have to break down and buy a few templates from someone who knows what the heck they're doing!

 

Tell me what you think!

Created in the late 18th century, Genovés Park has seen many transformations over the years, however it was very impressive at its current state.

Dhananjay has been painting for the last 25 years. He creates graphic and structural uniformity on canvas through the play of light & shade. His paintings are basically a judicious mix of the abstract and realistic forms. His thoughts stem from unique imagination, which combines the real natural world with the artistic and creative world. He finds modernism on canvas with the help old mythological art . He expresses graphic and cutout form through mythological series with remarkable uses of colours to depict the unknown mysteries in the natural world. His many collections bring out his natural creative talent and total love for art. He paints with oil & acrylic colours on canvas.

Final project for Creative Computing, group project. We created two game controllers and code that works though Arduino to create a soccer/pong type game on the computer. We incorporated sound bytes, LED's and push buttons to acknowledge when some one scores and to move the player across the screen.

// buttons 3-10

 

// send sensor values:

Serial.print(button1, DEC); // Sending the data as a whole, human readable number, either 1 or 0.

Serial.print(',', BYTE);

Regarding email I received, and of my own experience visiting other people blog, I figure out a lot of people coming here may not really know who I am ;)

 

I often do not read blogs and only check pictures, then jumping from link too link... So, for those who read, here come some infos, on what I am / I have done / I am working on...

 

To illustrate this, here come some picture of my office, that I share with my wife in our nice France countryside home.

My creatable world dolls! I've wanted them since they were released late last year, but I wanted to buy them in person to show support for them and contribute to the money being made off of them. They're nonbinary dolls by mattel, and they each come with no name and a LOAD of clothing pieces, for both boys and girls. I love them so much. After months they've finally shown up in my Target. I bought two of them and several clothing packs, although I had to purchase my favorite one online. Meet Jamie(cowboy hat), Ivy(overalls), and August(yellow sweater).

The Project on Prosperity and Development will host the Creating Shared Value Conference as part of its ongoing work on the role of the private sector in addressing enduring socioeconomic challenges in the world's poorest countries. Join us for a discussion on ways to maximize shared value between businesses and the often rural communities in which they operate. The conference will build on the energy generated by Nestlé's Creating Shared Value Annual 2014 report to discuss innovative ways government and civil society can work with the private sector to achieve rural development goals. This event is made possible with support from the Nestlé Corporation.

Title: Dreamers

 

Teacher and Organizer: Debi West

 

Dream Theme: Dare to Dream / Imagination

 

Materials & techniques used: Paint, Oil Pastel, pen, water color, and collage

We used traditional art media, acrylic, collage, oil pastel, graphite, charcoal to tell our stories and then we laminated them to weather proof them. Several students worked collaboratively on the 2' x 2' panels, while others worked independently and then found works that mirrored their theme and put them together to create panels.

 

What is your art about? A dream coming true.

 

Did you enjoy this project? Absolutely - a GREAT project and we're thrilled to be a part of it!

 

How can I make a difference?

In 2008, a group of educators and artists formed the International Fiber Collaborative (IFC) a non-profit organization with a mission to create deeper learning experiences through art, collaboration, and cross-curricular programming for individuals and their communities.

IFC’s current initiative, The Dream Rocket Project, started in 2009 has exhibited submissions in over 105 venues; in 2014 submissions will be connected side by side to wrap a 363’ Saturn V Moon Rocket replica at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL (48’ taller than the Statue of Liberty).

With every artwork received a student has had to ask; what is my dream for my future, and the future of my community and our world? How can students across our nation with many skills collaborate to make a difference? How can creativity and other subjects such as space, technology, science, and leadership inspire innovation? How can I make a difference?

Zendoodle ... not too sure how crazy I am about the "create" in there.

I created this using ComicLife from a screen capture from a music video.

A jet had flown over the scenic overlook at Petit Jean State Park near Morrilton, Arkansas from East to West . The vertical stripe in the middle is the trail created by the plane. This view is facing West away from the scenic overlook.

  

Here's some detailed info about Petit Jean State Park courtesy of Wikipedia:

 

Petit Jean State Park is a 3,471 acre (14.05 km²) state park in central Arkansas managed by the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism. Petit Jean is the flagship of the Arkansas State Park system.

 

Overlook at Petit Jean State ParkPetit Jean State Park is located atop Petit Jean Mountain on the Arkansas River in the area between the Ozark and Ouachita mountain ranges, in Conway County, Arkansas.

 

Buildings of log and stone construction built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the 1930s are scattered throughout the park giving it a rustic feel. A 24 room retreat called Mather Lodge sits on the edge of a bluff of a deep forested canyon on the mountaintop. In addition to the lodge there are 32 cabins and 127 campsites available for park visitors.

 

The canyon and bluffs were created by Cedar Creek, which cascades into the canyon in an impressive 95 foot (21 m) waterfall. Above the falls, Cedar Creek has been dammed to create the 170 acre (69 ha) Lake Bailey which is used for pedal-boating and fishing.

 

Petit Jean has a visitors center and gift shop in the center of the park and a boathouse at Lake Bailey which provides boat rentals, fishing supplies, and snack bar. Tennis and basketball courts, swimming pool, and picnic areas are available for the use of park guests. The Museum of Automobiles is less than a mile from the main camping areas.

 

The park also has several unique geologic features such as Bear Cave, Rock House Cave, the Grotto, Turtle Rocks, Carpet Rocks, and Natural Bridge.

 

The scenic overlook at Petit Jean's grave provides a spectacular view of the Arkansas River valley.
