Visually impaired and other disabled Veterans roll for 300 during bowling events at the 2014 TEE Tournament.
The Drums of Africa is a visually expressed personal guidance system. Our ancestors have documented the lessons of life into profound proverbs that can be easily remembered and referred to in our approach to everyday life. The series
displays these proverbs as typographic compositions combined with tribal forms found in South Africa’s folk
arts and crafts. In fact, symbolic elements from the intricate beadwork of the Bantu-speaking tribes, the refined basketry of the Zulu, and the highly coloured, bold, geometric forms of the Ndebele, ordain the fragile hand-drawn Helvetica typeface.
The result is a combination of contemporary type,
decorated with traditional silhouettes. Upholding the lessons and motivations of African culture, the compositions serve as daily affirmations and motivations.
The original oil paintings are on display at Kozi’s : Meet ’n Eat, an African inspired restaurant in Athens, Greece. A limited edition of signed prints have been created to accompany the work and are also available online at www.dimitratzanos.com

Long distance traveling can sometimes be boring...
All you need to do is point the camera at the side of the road & the magic happens...
This is a long exposure motion blurred on purpose photograph that creates the feeling of movement within a still image.
The photo tries to represent the experience of motion itself.
It 'stretches the moment' both literally (in the camera shutter is held open) and visually (as the details of the subject blur out horizontally).
(This is a long exposure photo of the side of the railroad while traveling at speed. ;-) )
"The visually exposed Empire house from 1818 includes older structures, the stone cellars are probably medieval.
A terraced one-storey house with a basement in a corner position stands on the main square in the centre of the historic centre of the city. It has a rectangular ground plan, a mansard roof with small dormers, two roof ridges run perpendicular to the facade – a hipped roof adjoins the neighbouring house. The roofs are covered with eternit on the outside, and with burnt grooved tiles on the inside. The southern facade to TG Masaryk Square has 5 window axes on the first floor, on the ground floor on the left a window, a glazed entrance to the pharmacy, a window, a passage gate and a glazed display window with an entrance to the shop. The entrance to the passage is vaulted with a compressed arch, flanked by a profiled cornice with a vault and emphasised by half-columns carrying straight entablatures. The other openings on the ground floor are rectangular, flanked by cornices. The ground floor is divided by a bossage, separated from the first floor by a cordon cornice. The floor is divided by fluted pilasters with volute capitals between each window. Under the crown cornice with dentil is a strip with plastic decor, around the windows there are profiled chambranes with ears, window and window sill cornices and plastic decor in the parapet fillings and suprafenestras (festoons, floral curtains, ribbons). The side facade to Pernštýnské Square is designed similarly to the front facade with a bossage on the ground floor and pilasters on the floor, 3 windows on the left side of the facade have a semicircular raised window cornice, 4 windows on the right are distinguished by pilasters on each side of the window (i.e. there are two pilasters between the windows). On the ground floor there is a window on the left and a rectangular entrance to the house, from it to the right there are 4 window axes, windows without chambranes. The narrow courtyard facade is smooth, on the ground floor there is a passage opening vaulted with a compressed arch and a window, on the first floor there are 2 semicircular arched windows. The passage is vaulted with Czech flats into the waists. There are vaults in both shops - mainly barrel vaults, then barrel vaults with sectors, barrel segmental vaults, barrel vaults into traverses and a Prussian vault. A straight staircase vaulted with a compressed barrel vault leads from the passage to the first floor. On the first floor there are flat-ceilinged rooms, some with fabions, the layout has been subsequently modified. The cellars are dissected, barrel vaulted, made of stone, others of brick masonry. The roof is traditional wooden, with hambálky and a standing stool, under the wooden floor of the attic there is a mezzanine that used to be used for storage.
The visually exposed Empire house from 1818 includes older structures, the stone cellars are probably medieval. Apart from the cellars, the most valuable parts are the facade and the vaults on the ground floor." - info from the National Heritage Institute.
"Prostějov (Czech pronunciation: [ˈproscɛjof]; German: Proßnitz, Yiddish: פראסטיץ Prostitz) is a city in the Olomouc Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 44,000 inhabitants. Today the city is known for its fashion industry and AČR special forces unit 601. skss based there. The centre of the town is historically significant and is protected by law as urban monument zone.
The first historical mention of the village Prostějovice is from 1141. By the middle of the 13th century, it had developed into an important market village. At that time, German settlers were invited here, who established a new settlement on the site of today's TG Masaryk Square, to which the rights of the original settlement were transferred. On March 27, 1390, Prostějov was granted the right of the annual market thanks to the lords of Kravaře, which in fact became a town. In the Hussite period, the promising development slowed down as the city suffered delays on both sides; the insufficiently fortified Prostějov became easy prey for the troops of Margrave Albrecht and was burned down in 1431. The prosperity of the city was brought about by the establishment of the Jewish city and especially after a year 1490 more than a century-old government of the Pernštejn families, whose property became the town. In 1495, the city began the construction of stone walls with four gates with bastions. Between 1521 and 1538, the townspeople built a Renaissance town hall.
At the end of the 16th century, the city became the property of the Liechtensteins, which resulted in the stagnation of the city's development. In Prostejov the year 1527 printer Kaspar Aorga printed the first book on Moravia. During the Thirty Years' War, the town was devastated and in 1697 a fire broke out, killing the town hall, the school and the church. Then the city began to acquire a Baroque character. Around the middle of the 17th century, mainly thanks to local Jews, the food, textile and clothing industries developed rapidly, and in 1858 the first Czech ready-to-wear clothing industry was founded in Prostějov - the factory of the Mandla brothers, which attracted new inhabitants. In the 1960s, Prostějov was connected by rail with Brno and Olomouc. The 19th and 20th centuries changed the face of the city in the style of historicism and Art Nouveau. Since the 20s and especially 30s, dominating the construction becoming in Prostejov functionalism.
Moravia (Czech: Morava [ˈmorava]; German: Mähren) is a historical region in the east of the Czech Republic and one of three historical Czech lands, with Bohemia and Czech Silesia.
The medieval and early modern Margraviate of Moravia was a crown land of the Lands of the Bohemian Crown from 1348 to 1918, an imperial state of the Holy Roman Empire from 1004 to 1806, a crown land of the Austrian Empire from 1804 to 1867, and a part of Austria-Hungary from 1867 to 1918. Moravia was one of the five lands of Czechoslovakia founded in 1918. In 1928 it was merged with Czech Silesia, and then dissolved in 1948 during the abolition of the land system following the communist coup d'état.
Its area of 22,623.41 km2 is home to about 3.2 million of the Czech Republic's 10.8 million inhabitants. The people are historically named Moravians, a subgroup of Czechs, the other group being called Bohemians. The land takes its name from the Morava river, which runs from its north to south, being its principal watercourse. Moravia's largest city and historical capital is Brno. Before being sacked by the Swedish army during the Thirty Years' War, Olomouc served as the Moravian capital, and it is still the seat of the Archdiocese of Olomouc. Until the expulsions after 1945, significant parts of Moravia were German speaking." - info from Wikipedia.

"An optical illusion (also called a visual illusion) is characterized by visually perceived images that differ from objective reality. The information gathered by the eye is processed in the brain to give a perception that does not tally with a physical measurement of the stimulus source. There are three main types: literal optical illusions that create images that are different from the objects that make them, physiological ones that are the effects on the eyes and brain of excessive stimulation of a specific type (brightness, colour, size, position, tilt, movement), and cognitive illusions, the result of unconscious inferences."
Usually, bright colors that seem unsafe for display on the Web are abrasive to the point of causing an eye sore. However, this page from Jamie Smith (known by his stage name, Jamie xx), of The xx, that uses SoundCloud Premiere to promote his first solo single, is visually stunning.

The National Disabled Veterans TEE Tournament is the brainchild of several employees of the Iowa City VA Medical Center, along with two visually impaired Iowa Veterans. These visionaries created the TEE Tournament, an acronym standing for TRAINING, EXPOSURE and EXPERIENCE. In 2008, it became one of VA's six national rehabilitation programs for Veterans. The event expanded to include not only blind Veterans, but amputees, wheelchairbound Veterans, and those with other life changing disabilities. It takes place each year in Iowa City.

A visually appealing course - rich vibrant colours with safe flavour pairings. The cheeries were globes of unctuous deep flavours and absolutelly stunning. The duck, rather light given the rich flavours and textures I would have expected from such a game bird (this could be my own fault of being too used to the glorious deep flavours and meaty texture from smoked duck). The radish bed, refreshing against the flavourful jus, while the spongy steamed bun wrapped around a loose shredded duck (confit? A tad on the drier side) was a great juxtaposition against crisp rich walnuts.
The course was paried with the Sonoma Cutrer "Russian River Valley" Pinot Noir, California. From a small winery, with this particular wine listing at # 8 on last year's wine spectator list, and something the sommolier/wine director of the evening had to import himself across the boarder. Very nice, full of dark cherry notes and licorice. Great for the course.
"During Chris' previous visit to James Beard House in 2006, the duck dish he served proved to be the most popular of the evening. This year, Chris will be serving duck again, but in a different style. Star anise flavour and a Korean-style steam bun wrap highlight the dish. The Asian influence is complimented by Lapin cherries from Kelowna, B.C., which were canned by Chris this past summer."
I visually facilitated a conversation with Jill Foster to help her think about her goals for her upcoming reporting gig from the Democratic National Convention and the logistics she will need to take care of to reach those goals. Jill Foster will be reporting from the Democratic National Convention in Denver via her cell phone for Utterz.com. Utterz allows users to publish audio, video, text, and photos to the web with the push of a button. This is going to be once in a lifetime opportunity for Jill, so she wants to make the most of it. Here is what Jill says about the experience of engaging in a visually facilitated project planning session.

Item on display at the “Multisensory Exhibition for the Blind and Visually Impaired Persons” that shows how visually impaired persons experience artwork via tactile plates and audio guides.
Curated by art historian and art educator Nataša Jovičić and the Modern Gallery, Zagreb, Croatia, the exhibition also sensitizes others to how people living with limited vision experience the world.
The exhibition was held on the sidelines of the Assemblies of WIPO Member States, which met from September 24 to October 2, 2018. WIPO co-organized the event with the government of Croatia.

What colour is this packet of polymer clay?
There is more than one way to experience colours. One way is to see them. The other way is to feel them. Blind and visually impaired people like to do arts and crafts, too. Beading, polymer clay, knitting, origami and other things all involve colours. Combining the right colours of beads or wool, choosing the right colour of paper or polymer clay is still important even if you can't see. Braille labels can solve this problem very elegantly. Posting a sticker with the description of the colour on a box of beads or on a packet of polymer clay is a great way to feel the colours of the contents.
To answer the question I asked at the beginning: The Braille label on this packet of polymer clay tells me that the colour of the clay is "lemon yellow".

Often visually compared to the Sydney Opera House, the Baha'i Temple is one of the most iconic pieces of modern architecture in South Asia. The Baha'i Temple is made up of twenty-seven white, marble petals, in the shape of an unfolding lotus flower, spawning from nine pools, and nine walkways. The theme of nine symbolises the nine unifying paths of the Baha'i Faith.

"Inclusiveness is key! This was spectacular.
A visually impaired wrestler competing in a main stream championship wrestling tournament. Arron, from Portlaoise Combat Academy Vs Peyton from Mohawk Valley Wrestling Club NY. One of the wrestlers was visually impaired, so to even out abilities, both wrestlers were blind folded.
Well done to Referee John for his experienced approach to this bout.
Great sportsmanship & wrestling from both."

This was a design for a hosting company called Hostcube. I wanted to create something a bit more edgy, polished, and more graphically heavy.
I made use of subtle gradient and lighting effects to give the design more depth. I've also paid attention to small details when creating the background patterns, headers, iconography, and overall content area treatments. On top of that, I've also come up with the concept for the logo, which then I dissected into smaller pieces to visually represent the VPS nodes used in this type of hosting service. The client requested 2 comps, and they were complete opposites, as you can see by viewing the second version here.

I felt like doing something visually extreme just for the sake of it and I was thinking of waterfalls. I imagined a tower of them and wondered how many I could stack on one page with it still looking pleasing to the eye. The answer was 7 different stamps and 9 impressions of them for a total of 9 falls and most of them large. For such a large scene, I didn't have to add many more stamps to finish off the scene because there wasn't much more space left. I love adding white pigment ink and Dr. Martin's Bleed Proof White splatter painting embellishments on scenes so this one was a real treat when it came to that.

I created this piece for "Visions in the Dark". A show scheduled for May 5th 2012 at Calles y Suenos. This piece depicts a vision beyond vision that is probably more enchanting than what the frustrations of being visually impaired would present to me. Learning to let go of old pathways that the brain and the retinas have set up for the neurotransmitters to travel down and open for new synapses to grow. (not scientifically accurately described, but I hope you get the gist.)
