CROSSVIEW
To view 3D pics cross your eyes focusing between at the pictures until both images overlap one another in the middle.
Per vedere le foto in 3D incrociare (strabuzzare leggermente) gli occhi fino a che le due immagini si sovrappongono formandone una sola centrale.

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.

18 Watt Triple Output UV lamp from Polman Minerals - Way Too Cool UV lamps
Created by a participant at the "Wuthering Hacks : re-using library data" hackathon at Newcastle City Library on 9 April 2016.
The participant used Raw (app.raw.densitydesign.org) to do visualisations using the "top 5 most borrowed titles in Newcastle Libraries in March 2016" data. The idea was to see how data could be turned from a raw format into an aesthetically pleasing item.
The "top 5" titles included:
Top 5 most borrowed titles for adult fiction in March 2016
1) NYPD Red / James Patterson
2) A spool of blue thread / Anne Tyler
3) Kate Mosse / The taxidermist’s daughter
4) Thin air / Ann Cleeves
5) Peppercorn street / Anna Jacobs
Top 5 most borrowed titles for adult non-fiction in March 2016
1) The eternally packed suitcase / Lisa Matthews - MISSING from spreadsheet
2) The tearaway / Dean Williams
3) Foolproof cooking / Mary Berry
4) Life after you / Lucie Brownlee
5) Narrow dog to Wigan Pier / Terry Darlington
Top 5 most borrowed titles for junior fiction in March 2016
1) Ten in the bed / Penny Dale
2) Walking with witches / Lynn Huggins-Cooper
3) I love you, Blue Kangaroo! / Emma Chichester-Clark
4) This is the bear / Sarah Hayes - MISSING from spreadsheet
5) Dogger / Shirley Hughes
In this experimentation I wanted to try observational drawing and experiment with different watercolours. (17.01.2017)
that were supposed to be a bowl of cherries
i was shooting with my macro lens for holga
but it somehow turned out into shapeless form and only the colors remained
sigh!
The Foucault pendulum of the Griffith Observatory.
The pendulum swings independently of the Earth's rotation. As the Earth rotates, the pendulum's direction will slowly change relative to the ground, here causing pegs to be knocked down one after another. This experiment demonstrates that the Earth rotates, and was devised by Léon Foucault in 1851.
I wanted to experiment with light in the dark, since there was barely any sun this week. I also played around with the levels on photoshop to really bring out the colors against the background. This shows my community because I like to surround myself with positive people, no matter what the situation is. In this picture the bright colors represent the positive people in my life, and the black background represents the bad situation.
This was taken with a Nikon F90X film camera with a 20 odd year old Nikon 35-70 f/2.8 and a Nikon SB600 flash bounced off a reflector to the right.
Experiment with a cherry in a glass... Very easy to do actually, but I found out it is very hard to really get an interesting shot. This is a start though, next time I will get a black background and wine glass:).
An experiment in Photoshop.
Combined all color channels into a monochrome and then masked it on top of the original colored version and "erased" all the parts that were red to make that color really pop out.
I think it turned out quite well. :-)
Sandia researchers Alex Tappan (left) and Rob Knepper watch the detonation of a critical thickness experiment. The experiment typically uses less explosive material than the size of one-tenth of an aspirin tablet to determine small-scale detonation properties. The bench-top experiment is so small, researchers can stand next to the firing chamber with eye and ear protection.

Uranyl nitrate solution was used to hydrate 15mL of DAP Plaster of Paris mix. The result showed hardly any green uranyl fluorescence, what could be seen was yellowish green. The plaster was then rehydrated using a concentrated sodium carbonate solution. The water was evaporated and the mixture was then calcined at ~150 degC for 4 hours in an oven. It was then rehydrated using a sodium carbonate solution. The plaster mix bubbled for about a half hour releasing much CO2 gas. After drying a coating of yellowish crystals formed on the surface.

Much appreciation to Gordon Czop for the uranyl nitrate.

Testing out if I can make a digital photo look like old handpainted B/W or a magazine photo from the 40´s.
Model was my cousins daughter, and she hated every moment of it since we were trying to get her to eat yoghurt in a messy way. The girl is a Lady and knows her table manners.
Experimenting with different bread making techniques. Rolls on left are 1 hour rising, no proving. On right 1 1/2 hours and proving. Differences include individual kneading and rising for 30mins above oven.
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.

The idea for this is to draw a 2-D image on a 3-D object. I didn't use any tricks. I just looked at the cube from the lower-right pictures angle while I drew it.
The cube's dimensions are 1.5" x 1.5". Poplar wood with Zig Millennium pens.
I joined the I Got Wood group and am experimenting with what I'm going to send back to them. This isn't the wood they sent me, it's one I cut so I could mess it up before ruining theirs. What's tricky is, theirs is 1" square. Again, mine is 1.5".
Any way. It's kind of neat to move the block around and have it not make sense, then get it to the correct angle and, Ta-da!
As a side note, I don't have a Lincoln infatuation. He's just very distinguishable and has easy features to duplicate.
If I asked you who to draw on a cube of wood, who would you say??
