iPhone's latest software update, IOS 7, added a panorama feature to the camera...I made a couple run-of-the-mill "panos" (Apple seems to love applying their own terms to things that are already established, have you ever noticed that?), quickly grew bored with them, and decided to experiment with it. These were all taken out the window of a moving bus. I sometimes held my iPhone normally, sometimes horizontally, sometimes upside-down, and so forth, manipulating the way the image was recorded. I rather like the results.
Learning to use spectral highlights (top left). Needed a subject matter for the foreground. I opened the window to let in some diffuse light to frontlight the subject. I think this looks kind of cool, like a print ad?
FOV: 3" wide.
On an aluminum tray, salt, sulfur were heated until the salt was melted. The frozen salt contained sulfide and possibly, disulfide ions. This was then added to a solution of sodium silicate and dissolved by boiling the solution.
To this solution was added another solution containing sodium chloride and aluminum sulfate. When they combined, a white precipitate formed. This was strained and dried, then melted with a MAPP gas torch.

Coffee Experiment. This is Gorilla Coffee Kenya Fairview Estate poured with 4 different variables. Grind, filter, and weight were tested. Participants preferred:
Hario V60 dripper 20 grams of coffee and Chemex with Kone over Chemex with paper filter.
Participants were customers and barista.
WeeklyBeats2 submission - This week left me short of time, but I did manage to get this done. Simple attempt at some atmospheric with a bit of instrument placement intent. I was envisioning a bit of background music for a space science show or video game... maybe something like the expository scenes in Homeworld.

Day 1: masdevallia potting medium experiment.

Scientists recently performed three more experiments on local freshwater mussels. The purpose was to measure how much pollutants are removed as these animals filter water clean while they eat. This will help tell planners how investments in mussel restoration lead to cleaner water. Imagine if we could decrease our need for water treatment simply by investing in shellfish, many of which can live up to a century. Visit DelawareEstuary.org/freshwater-mussels to learn more.

another experiment with generative design. Output from processing sketch was HDR toned in photoshop to achieve a high degree of detail in light and dark areas. Overall, this image represents another step towards a curious exploration of parametric design.
“APOLLO 15 EVA VIEW --- Astronaut David R. Scott, commander, reaches to pick up the Apollo Lunar Surface Drill (ALSD) during surface boring operations at station number 8. The action came during extravehicular activity (EVA) at the Apollo 15 Hadley-Apennine landing site. The core stems and other related equipment are on the bore/stem rack near Scott. In the center foreground is the Solar Wind Experiment (SWE), a component of the Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (ALSEP) which astronauts Scott and James B. Irwin, lunar module pilot, deployed at this station. A portion of Mount Hadley is in the right background. While astronauts Scott and Irwin descended in the Lunar Module (LM) to explore the Moon, astronaut Alfred M. Worden, command module pilot, remained with the Command and Service Modules (CSM) in lunar orbit.”
Also, per Wikimedia Commons:
"This is figure 3-15 of the Apollo 15 Preliminary Science Report (NASA SP-289, 1972), which has the following caption (slightly edited):
The Commander (David Scott) places the Apollo lunar-surface drill on the surface in preparation for adding additional core stems. The rack with core and bore stems is to his right and the solar wind spectrometer is in the foreground; the tapelike ribbons are cables that connect the central station to the individual ALSEP experiments."

One of my experimental subjects in one of my hyperbaric research studies on divers. Cold water too. Very cold.
Connectivity and readymade.
Experimenting, manipulating and combining daily life objects in order to attempt, to force or to mystify a workable connection between them, at least to make it visible and/or possible. This exercise is to be considered as a warm-up, a first step towards a further installation or project.

This is an experiment with different brushes to explore the idea of patterns and fractals. Instead of using the calligraphic strokes to build an alphabet based on the typical archetype I used them to construct something visual rather then letters that can transmit something emotional. Each piece is drawn with a brush and with them I constructed a module to create the patterns and fractals. All of this drawings can be visualized in a micro and macro space.
