Homage to a print that Jared Tarbell sent me a while ago. Thanks for the inspiration JT (though yours is much more elegant... nice trick with the black orb with multiple specular highlights... sublime!). Rendered out at 5000x5000. Check the fullsize to see the detail.
GOD BLESS AMERICA! JUSTICE IS SERVED. THANK YOU TROOPS!
Angel and I had a photoshoot at Golden Hour.
And I am yet to master the art of hiding the remote.
Happy Exam Week college students! Good luck!
Have a great day.

I have this cool app on my phone, that I did this cross process effect on this pic, let me know what you think!

A couple of people have asked how unbooks differ from wikis. That's a great question and led to some reflection and a conversation with my friend Alan Smith (Thanks Alan!) which yielded a few insights.
The top line: Unbooks and wikis are similar in some ways but different in others.
Similarities: Both wikis and unbooks:
1) Are subject to constant and continuous change.
2) Involve communities who are interested in developing content or topic areas.
3) Can have multiple authors.
4) Have multiple defined roles within the community, i.e., reader, author, editor, etc.
Differences:
1) A wiki community is centered around online content in the form of hyperlinked web pages, while an unbook community is centered around printed content in the form of a book.
2) The number of pages in a wiki is conceptually unlimited, while the number of pages in an unbook is limited by its presence in the physical world. The limits may vary but my self-imposed limit is around 400 pages. This forces constant winnowing of the content to a finite set.
3) Because of the size limitation, an unbook's online content has a tendency to greatly exceed the printed content. This forces more rigor into the editorial process for the printed content. The online content supplements and reinforces the ideas in the book, and also forces change in the book over time. The result is that the unbook is a tightly edited, up-to-date summary of what can be found on the web.
4) A wiki does not have a linear narrative while an unbook does: Before a physical book can be printed the order of its pages must be determined.
5) An unbook has natural offshoots (the physical objects) where the content is frozen in time. This allows one to take a historical look at an unbook in a different way than a wiki. In a wiki, you can look at the evolution of individual pages but it's difficult to have an "entire snapshot" of the wiki at a particular instant in time.
6) A wiki can include motion and video while an unbook can only point to such things -- the print media has constraints. These constraints can be valuable and are well-known: The unbook needs no electicity and never goes down. It can be archived for thousands of years. When reading an unbook one is less subject to interruption by IM, email, dings and beeps, etc.
7) I suppose the primary difference is one of intentions and expectations.
An unbook is a narrative object: a developing narrative, a story that may change significantly over time, like a children's story that is told and retold with additions and changes by multiple authors. Like a story an unbook has a clear beginning and end, although those things might change over time.
A wiki is a map object: a virtual space that can be searched, explored and navigated in various ways. A wiki, like a physical space, has many starting and ending points. You can enter a wiki many ways and there is no "end" to a wiki.
These are just one person's thoughts. I hope you will add your thoughts and comments to this interesting thread.

My current work addresses the production of food in modern American society. From factory farming to locally raised produce, I seek to explore what may be one of the most pressing issues of our time in a lighthearted and approachable manner. It is widely acknowledged that the industrialization of food manufacturing has transformed the lives, habits, and bodies of Americans, as well as alerted the way that most of our society thinks-or doesn’t think-about where food comes from and what food is. I create digitally fabricated representations of animals that are engineered and produced, and may have more in common with products or raw materials than other living creatures. These animals, which are designed, fabricated and then placed on assembly lines that guide their existence from inception to processing, include chickens, cows, pigs, and fish. My work is also concerned with edible plants and their role in our lives both historically and presently. Plants as well as animals are now being generated inside laboratories, and travel unimaginable distances to reach our supermarkets and tables. This is a marvel of human technology and global society as well as a complex system that may need re-working if humanity is to move toward a sustainable future.
I hope that I can put what goes onto your plate into your thoughts as well.
