Another set built with processing. This engine rotates cubes in 3D space using colors in clever ways to get these effects
downloaded some geometry from the google 3d warehouse - clip art is what I was looking for, not detail - but exporting to obj, then importing to rhino, and then exporting again to render in maxwell - and the textures come through!
unexpected, not necessarily desired in this case, but a rare case of digital data portability

During our time in Zimbabwe, we scheduled some time to visit a lion outreach camp called “Lion Encounter”. Their mission isn’t to just raise lions from birth and give them to zoos, but to introduce them back to the wild where they belong. Sara and I were allowed to take an hour walk with a few 18 month old lions. What we found especially funny was that lions usually sleep about 18 hours per day, much like our cat at home. In fact, when we first encountered the lions they were doing just that – sleeping. Things picked up a bit as they awoke from their slumber and we were able to get some great photos and make great memories.
This is the final installment from Lion Encounter with a simply processed photo and a more worked up version. I know this may seem hypocritical that not too long ago I ranted with hundreds of words describing that it’s good to focus on one’s photography roots, but sometimes I think some photos need that extra push off the cliff to be printed large and worthy to be hung over a fireplace. Maybe I should call it, “Shane Gorski – Classic.” HA! This lioness was photographed as our guides were describing various lion behaviors and discussing the various stages to reintroduce a lion to the wild. To me, this lion has no hope. She loved lying on this dead tree near the stream a little too much. As we continued on our walk with the lions, one of our guides had to poke this lioness in the butt to get her movin’. He was met with a cold stare, but with a little verbal persuasion the lioness moved on her way.

These screengrabs are from an application developed for an installation we had running at the Barbarian holiday party on December 14th in Boston. The setup was simple enough.
1) Drunk people.
2) Remote controlled camera and flash umbrellas in a make-shift photobooth.
3) Powermate knob controlling a Mac Automator script which would tell the camera to snap a photo, save the photo to a mac mini, resize the photo and place a copy into a shared folder.
4) MacBook Pro connected to a projector.
5) Processing application which pulls in photos from the Mac Mini and presents them as animated kaleidoscopes which are projected onto the wall above the dance floor.
Crowd-Made Party Visuals!
And now a few words about the presentation. Every 12 seconds, a new photo is pulled from the Mini. I decide randomly if it should be a 6, 12, or 18 pronged kaleidoscope star. I render the kaleidoscoped image to the screen and slowly push it back along the z axis so that it moves away from the viewer. This movement allows me to layer kaleidoscopic slides. The image itself is added as a texture to a bunch of mirror imaged triangles but I rotate the texture at a random speed so sometimes you get a central star gap which allows you to see through to the previous image.

Our coffee farm, Fazenda Nossa Senhora Aparecida. Brasil, 2007.
This set shows pictures of the coffee trees, picking (both mechanical and manual) and processing, as well as the infrastructure used for such. It also shows the social and educational activities we develop in the farm to improve living and working conditions of the farmers and our community.
The farm is located near Pedregrulho, state of São Paulo, in the Alta Mogiana region, highly prized for its coffee quality.
Photos taken by João Guilherme Martins and Marcelo Dantas, among others.

What I did: I took the original drawing, resized it to 10%, blurred a bit, then resized it back to 100%. This is the result. Pretty/scary.
actually this looks more like what I see while I'm drawing. I work at rather dimmed lighting, so that my perception is somewhat like what you see here instead of the actual scribblings I have to make to produce it.
I never expected that stripping all the detail from the original would produce something like this. Surprising for me it shows quite well what was there for me to work with.
best viewed large and from varied distances.

Lucy is really into playing on her play mat and she looks so pleased with herself. Then after a while she just lays there and watches the tree out of the window!
I have decided to have a day off trying to photograph the pair of them together!
...so I finally caved in a took some shots in the RAW mode (well I took them JPG + RAW). I've long been conflicted about processing images too much, however, what finally convinced me is that especially on night shots I can modify things in 2 seconds - things that I'd have to spend minutes to experiment with on the camera. For instance, (as was pointed out in a recent comment) you can slide the WB to get one you like. This is the same as taking lots of pics - typically I will attempt the same shot in several WB modes. Similarly you can switch to Landscape mode or add saturation. These are all things I do on the camera anyway. In addition, if I play with these things in RAW (using a Canon program that came with the Rebel) I will learn more about when to use each - and this will help me achieve my main goal which still remains: taking the best shot right off the camera.
Messing with WB and saturation in RAW does not seem like cheating so I will probably take all crucial shots (and most night shots) in RAW from now on.
In some instance you are under pressure to hurry up. Often other people get impatient. Often you run out of time. Often stuff moves or nice light ends. Often you get eaten up by mosquitos (like today when I took this). Therefore often I don't have time to try 3 WBs and 2 saturation setting for each shot. RAW helps get more and better pictures faster.
In this I only changed the WB slightly and changed it to Landscape mode.
