Thanks so much for my eighth EXPLORE! March 8, Highest #279
This is a Mascot II Exposure Meter from 1957, it was marketed specifically at Ladies (by General Electric) as they felt the original Mascot model (which came in Black) did not appeal to women. It sits neatly inside it's original leather case, comes with the instruction booklet and is in great working condition (it just needs a good dusting).
It came with the (1964) Voigtlander Vito CLR which I recently bought. My new addiction is Vintage Cameras, so be warned, you may be seeing some more vintage cameras and accessories!

Affection, the gifted architect is making a draft and beautiful design.
The options and possibilities are endless when we connect and re-align.
Collections of books and documents arise and parade around my cluttered desk. Reworking the math and measurements until I'm convinced these plans are picturesque, like mountains in the Midwest.
Reaction creates the columns dark and, wide like the roads around Fort Lauderdale, the structures begin to take their shape. Before I've designed the public monorail, the turnpike and high-speed motorway connect and enclose the quaint suburban streets.
The airport, the broad suspension bridge, the lake, and the beach, where several rivers meet, compounded from the spreadsheet.

This statue of explorer Leif Eriksson stands in front of the Hallgrímskirkja, the church in Reykjavik. It seemed that only the lights to the left of the church and to the right of the statue were working, which made choosing a composition pretty straight forward.

My friend Michael Naimark is exploring new ideas for virtual reality experiences, in collaboration with Google and other researchers. To discuss this work, we got together with two other colleagues, Steve Gano and Jim McKee -- with whom we worked at the Apple Multimedia Lab in the eighties, pushing the envelope on related questions.
We started with a tour of the historic Sentinel Building in North Beach, home of American Zoetrope -- where Francis Coppola worked on many cinematic masterpieces like The Godfather and Apocalypse Now. We checked out the underground screening room and sound mixing room where some of that work took place, then headed upstairs to Michael and Jim’s studios, for a wonderful conversation about the new VR frontier.
Michael and his colleagues are researching how people are represented in virtual reality. Their first experiment at Google’s “Big Chairs” Park led to some helpful guidelines on how to film people for VR, by using different camera angles and distances.
They’re also investigating ‘hyper-images’ that resemble a group of people, but that are shot at different times and composited together to create both ‘credible’ and ‘incredible’ pictures. To enable more experiments like these, Michael is developing ‘IMU VR’, a new type of camera that could make it easier for communities to tell their stories in VR. More on this later.
It was great to reconnect with my colleagues and brainstorm these ideas together. It felt like the good old days, and the creative juices were flowing all over again ...

I have had a few nice encounters in the subway system (surprising enough) and this was my second of the day – the first being Issicha. I had just stopped by the Toronto Public Library branch in the west end to check on my photo exhibit and found that all was in order. On my way back to the subway to head downtown I saw this wonderful splash of color at the intersection. She was with a girlfriend and the three of us crossed the street together on our way to the subway station. I introduced myself and my project and asked her if she would be kind enough to participate. She agreed after hearing a few details and looking at my contact card. Meet Dana.
Just inside the doors to the station there was plenty of light and a wall of tiles, some of them plain and a few with colors. I suggested we take the photos against the tiles. Her friend occupied herself on her cell phone while we did the photos and it was clear that Dana enjoyed the experience. When I asked her about the bright red hair she said “I do it myself.” I wondered if she is a hairstylist and she said “No, but I learned from my Auntie and I enjoy doing hair.” I commented that it certainly grabbed my attention. Confirming that I wasn’t making the two of them late for something, Dana said “No, not at all. We were just doing a bit of shopping for the children.”
Dana is 26 and came to Canada from Jamaica at age 12. I told her it was a coincidence that I had photographed another Jamaican in a different subway station earlier today and showed her Issicha’s portrait which was still on my camera. I asked about Dana’s advice to her younger self and she said “Be strong no matter what. Better times will come.” Her biggest challenge in life has been when her six year old son was struck by a bullet in a neighborhood shooting. I’m sure my shock registered on my face. I didn’t push for details but did ask about the outcome and she said he recovered well and is doing great. Her face lit up in talking about his good health now. Her message to the project was “What doesn’t kill you will make you stronger.” It’s interesting that her answers to the three questions I asked all tie together. Without planning it, I spontaneously asked her if she had a dream. She said “I do. It’s to be a flight attendant.” I commented that I’ve always loved airplanes and anything relating to airplanes. “Do you think this dream will ever come true?” I asked. She said “Oh, I’m definitely going to try – but not until my children are older.”
I thanked Dana and her friend for their patience and we exchanged contact information. I told her about my photo exhibit just across the street and she asked me to send the details with her photo and she would look forward to seeing it.

♫ Chariots of Fire by Vangelis ♫ Thanks Robert!
let me be the one
to tell you it's ok!
"When autumn wind goes running
It does some magic things.
It gives the shadows dancing shoes
It gives the bright leaves wings
When autumn wind goes running
It curls the bonfire's tail of smoke
And shares a little whispered joke
With cornstalks who delight to prattle
It turns a seed pod into a rattle
When autumn wind goes running
Leaves in the Fall come tumbling down,
Scarlet and yellow, russet and brown,
Leaves in the garden are swept in a heap,
The trees are ready for sleep.
Texture by Lenabem-Anna Thank you so much!
A fallen leaf is nothing more
than a summers wave good bye......"
