One and Seven WTC,a NYC subway map,and a train's handrail. I'm back here on my original page. I figured how to get back.Sorry about the runaround..I ran around too :-) You can comment here from now on.Thank you for your patience.Your viewership is much appreciated!
Day 197 of 365. Taken with iPhone camera+2 app in RAW. Tone mapping and editing with Affinity Photo.
First attempt at a disc-to-heart conformal mapping (e-marmotte kind of asked for it).
The original picture is here.
Finally finished with school so now I have time to go out.
I'm just trying out some manual tone mapping as an alternative to the usual boring HDR stuff... I like it... it takes considerably longer. However, it is much more flexible!! I'm not quite down with the technique yet unfortunately.

One of the most compelling sights in Jaipur, India is the Jantar Mantar, a Unesco world heritage site. Completed in 1734 by prince Jai Singh II, the founder of the city, it is an astrological observatory. The structures, like the one pictured, are used as instruments to map the heavens, and the world's largest sundial is part of the complex. Photo by Dave.

Just lost myself in the catalogue of the “Mapping Our World” exhibition at the NLA 7 November 2013 - 10 March 2014.

One of those mapping things, you know the sort they drop around the countryside so you can find where you are on the map - if you've got the right map.
I'd like this one to be much bigger, like some kind of huge monolith, maybe see what photoshop can do.
As per usual the colours look more like I intended if you check out the full size version
I began to look at items that had personal meaning to me. I focused on my running shoes and became preoccupied with the patterns and designs on the bottom of the shoes. For me this reminded me of the patterns and routes on maps and I combined both ideas in this pieces.
I am, as yet, ambivalent about what I've been producing for my art journal class. I don't know if I'm too distracted, or have too many preconceived notions about how the work should look, or I just haven't clicked with the concept yet.
This one's not done...I don't think. The first assignment is to consider a map, or time, so I'm sort of mapping time by documenting a day in my life (kinda sorta). Tea time here (after my initial wake up)...I love my morning cuppa.

Data:
The covers of every issue of Time magazine published from 1923 to summer 2009.
Total number of covers: 4535.
The large percentage of the covers included red borders. We cropped these borders and scaled all images to the same size to allow a user see more clearly the temporal patterns across all covers.
----------------------------
Timescale:
1923-2009.
----------------------------
Mapping:
Time covers appear in order of publication (i.e., from 1923 to 2009), arranged in a grid layout (left to right and top to bottom).
----------------------------
Mapping 4535 Time covers into a grid organized by publicatoon date reveals a number of historical patterns. Here are some of them:
Medium: In the 1920s and 1930s Time covers use mostly photography. After 1941, the magazine switches to paintings. In the later decades the photography gradually comes to dominate again. In the 1990s we see emergence of the contemporary software-based visual language which combines manipulated photography, graphic and typographic elements.
Color vs. black and white: The shift from early black and white to full color covers happens gradually, with both types coexisting for many years.
Hue: Distinct “color periods” appear in bands: green, yellow/brown, red/blue, yellow/brown again, yellow, and a lighter yellow/blue in the 2000s.
Brightness: The changes in brightness (the mean of all pixels’ grayscale values for each cover) follow a similar cyclical pattern.
Contrast and Saturation: Both gradually increase throughout the 20th century. However, since the end of the 1990s, this trend is reversed: recent covers have less contrast and less saturation.
Content: Initially most covers are portraits of individuals set against neutral backgrounds. Over time, portrait backgrounds change to feature compositions representing concepts. Later, these two different strategies come to co-exist: portraits return to neutral backgrounds, while concepts are now represented by compositions which may include both objects and people – but not particular individuals.
The visualization also reveals an important “metapattern”: almost all changes are gradual. Each of the new communication strategies emerges slowly over a number of months, years or even decades.

The slightly sawn off range of the Atlas Works that fronted Paragon China on Sutherland Road, Longton in the Potteries. The left of the building originally extended further out to encompass an arched entrance and lodge, adding about 25% to the overall frontage.
This old potbank dates back to 1903 and was set up by Herbert James Aynsley and Hugh Irving, his son-in law, transferring the Star China business from St. Gregory's Works and changing their name to Paragon China.
It continued under this name as a family business until it was aquired by Thomas C Wld & Sons in 1960, the Paragon name was kept in place even though repeatedly changing hands. In 1964 Allied English Potteries took over and then in 1972 Royal Doulton Tableware Ltd. took ownership and traded designs under the Paragon name until 1991. Their Royal Albert ware was a Paragon design.
More recently this building operated as a factory shop for Aynsley China whose main worksoperated along Sutherland Road.
It is now home to Midway Manufacturing who specialise in electro-mechanical and electronic assemblies, long may they keep the building in use.
The car park to the front would appear to have been occupied by terraced housing on maps from the 1950's.
The doorway wasn't part of the original structure, it replaces a window.

Made w/ an old map, my hand-dyed papers & a facsimile vintage label I just got from Cavallini. Oh, and also part of an older collage just ripped to pieces!
This time it is for real: this is Peirce's Quincuncial Mapping that turns a spherical panorama into a square, with the nadir in the center and the zenith in the four corners. This mapping is also tileable (see comment).
The previous images I uploaded were also a square projection, but the zenith and nadir are in the middle of the sides of the square (known as Adams World).
This image is part of a set exploring the different cartographical projections.

Exploration of sector H09 and the local planet Wastyria has been rather uneventful. Unlike the insane predators of Arium Major, the chill of this cold water ball seems to have stifled the size of most native creatures—though there apparently are the Rockback Whales discovered by pilot Hannibal, I haven’t yet seen any yet. Perhaps they are both rare and reclusive? Anyway, with the lack of animal encounters on this planet so far, I’ve been mapping out as many of the tiny islands that dot Wastyria’s watery surface. The cold of the planet is just enough in most regions to freeze the ocean spray, but not enough to solidify the ocean water itself; so I bought down my Barracuda Special from orbit and have been skimming around the ocean at speed for a few days. The pilots and drivers sure think they’ve got a need for speed, but exploring is where the real fun’s at. We get all the fun toys from the engineers before those guys do, and since we’re the ones with the alien close encounters, we hang on to the good stuff! This little speedboat is amazing. It’s blindingly fast and incredibly maneuverable making it perfect for Wastyria with all its random rock piles sticking out of the ocean. Bombing around in this little baby for a few days has been a fun vacation from the crazy monsters I usually have to take out or run from. We’ll see where Lord Business sends me next week, maybe there’ll be more action.
