visually annoy the neighbourhood - AGAIN ;-)
These specially devised blinking patterns go right down to the brain stem and deliver the essence of annoyance.

A visually unexciting COP offers an opportunity for activists to stage demonstrations in front of the international media. But while the role of activists is important at a COP, it is essential to ask if these performances are effective in reaching a new audience.
WHAT IT SHOWS: Civil society and ministers take part in an action at COP21. They participated in a street theater event which demonstrated the clear pathway to stabilizing the global temperature below 1.5 degrees increase.

Angkor Wat is visually, architecturally and artistically breathtaking. It is a massive three-tiered pyramid crowned by five lotus-like towers rising 65 meters from ground level. Angkor Wat is the centerpiece of any visit to the temples of Angkor.
At the apex of Khmer political and military dominance in the region, Suryavarman II constructed Angkor Wat in the form of a massive 'temple-mountain' dedicated to the Hindu god, Vishnu. It served as his state temple, though the temple’s uncommon westward orientation has led some to suggest that it was constructed as Suryavarman II’s funerary temple. Other temples of the same style and period include Thommanon, Banteay Samre, Wat Atwea and Beng Melea, which may have served as a prototype to Angkor Wat.
Angkor Wat is surrounded by a moat and an exterior wall measuring 1300 meters x 1500 meters. The temple itself is 1 km square and consists of three levels surmounted by a central tower. The walls of the temple are covered inside and out with bas-reliefs and carvings. Nearly 2000 distinctively rendered apsara carvings adorn the walls throughout the temple and represent some of the finest examples of apsara carvings in Angkorian era art. But it is the exterior walls of the lower level that display the most extraordinary bas-reliefs, depicting stories and characters from Hindu mythology and the historical wars of Suryavarman II. It is in the viewing of the bas-reliefs that a tour guide can be very helpful.
The northern reflecting pool in front is the most popular sunrise location. For sunrise, arrive very early, well before sunrise begins. The sun will rise behind Angkor Wat providing a silhouette of Angkor’s distinctively shaped towers against a colored sunrise sky. Some of the best colors appear just before the sun breaks over the horizon.
The visual impact of Angkor Wat, particularly on one's first visit, is awesome. As you pass through the outer gate and get your first glimpse, its size and architecture make it appear two dimensional, like a giant postcard photo against the sky. After you cross through the gate and approach the temple along the walkway it slowly gains depth and complexity. To maximize this effect you should make your first visit in optimal lighting conditions, i.e. after 2:00PM. Do not make your first visit to Angkor Wat in the morning when the backlighting obscures the view.
The first level of is the most artistically interesting. Most visitors begin their exploration with the bas-reliefs that cover the exterior wall of the first level, following the bas-reliefs counterclockwise around the temple. Bas-relief highlights include the mythological Battle of Kuru on the west wall; the historical march of the army of Suryavarman II, builder of Angkor Wat, against the Cham, followed by scenes from Heaven and Hell on the south wall; and the classic ‘Churning of the Ocean Milk’ on the east wall.
The temple interior is not as densely carved as the first level exterior, but still sports hundreds of fine carvings of apsaras and scenes from Hindu mythology. A guide can be quite helpful in explaining the stories of the various chambers, statues and architectural forms to be found in the interior. At the upper-most of your tour of the temple, the central tower on the third level houses four Buddha images, each facing a different cardinal point, highlighting the fact that though Angkor Wat was constructed as a Hindu temple, it has served as a Buddhist temple since Buddhism became Cambodia’s dominant religion in the 14th century. Some say that it is good luck to pay homage to all four Buddha images before departing Angkor.

The most colorful and visually spectacular valley in Yellowstone, Wyoming is the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. Two large waterfalls occur along this stretch of the river - the Upper Falls and the Lower Falls.
The rocks of the canyon include rhyolite lava flows, rhyolitic volcanic tuffs, and some sedimentary deposits - all are geologically young and date to the Quaternary.
The yellows, pinks, reds, and oranges indicate the presence of hydrothermally altered rocks. Hydrothermal metamorphism refers to the intense alteration by superheated groundwater. Yellowstone has over 100,000 hydrothermal features in the form of hot springs, geysers, fumaroles, and mudpots.

Visually this appeals to me. Textures were some how more dynamic here. The grass wall texture against the stacked stones with the laundry is delicious visually. The porters' baskets add. And they sit across the frame from the 3 empty gas cylinders, which are already tied together, awaiting the next porter heading back down the trail. They are echoed in the rows of soda bottles in the shop window. The doorway divides the photo into 2 parts very plainly, while the center character and the stone wall beneath binds them all together.
I took 3 other photos before this one. Then he saw my camera and flashed the deuces and stuck out his tongue (can you see that in this photo?). He's being playful. For me it shows how comfortable he was with the camera, with me and his surroundings. But photographically it also adds the levity that was prevalent here. I often found the gravity of the living conditions very serious as I passed through, but here is it punctuated with the playful humor that is just as prevalent.
Then I remember that AC (the center character) bridges two cultures so very gracefully, humorously and naturally just as his figure connects the 2 sides of this photo.The juxtaposition of these is what makes me look back at this one.

Pop Art - a rolling daily diary comprising a manipulated digital art collage that visually documents a local, political or international event of popular culture based on fractured photographic images.
The work is premised on the basis that Pop art in its beginnings, freeze-framed what consumers of popular culture experienced into iconic visual abstractions. With the advent of the techno age, visual information circulates in such quantities, so rapidly and exponentially, that to comprehend a fraction of it all becomes a kind of production process in itself.
Adapting Pop Arts notion of mass media imagery into a context of the contemporary digital age, this work draws on a myriad points of reference. Utilizing fractured images to provide an allusion to the digital noise pounding away daily into our subconsciousness.
This work diverges from the traditional Pop Art notion of a pronounced repetition of a consumer icon, instead focusing on the deluge of contemporary digital content. The compilation of the fragmented imagery is vividly distractive, not unlike cable surfing or a jaunt through Times Square.
This work considers elements of Pop Art through an artistic and conceptual exploration of specific people and events of the day. The works are diaristic in nature that metaphorically record a spectators experience of the contemporary digital age.

Gov. Markell toured the Division for the Visually Impaired’s Material Center on June 1 where he met new state employee, Brett Reilly, who has reorganized the facility, been hands-on with various IT projects and is learning Braille. The material center receives requests to turn books and other teaching materials into large print, Braille or tactile learning graphics for students in Delaware who are blind or visually impaired.
Brett, who is on the autism spectrum, is one of the first CAI-Specialisterne trainees hired by DHSS. Previous to his hiring by DVI, he did document scanning and other duties for DHSS through a contract with CAI in Newark and Specialisterne, a Danish nonprofit with U.S. headquarters in Delaware that aims to find 1 million jobs worldwide for people with autism. Brett taught himself Braille by watching a machine that translated printed words into Braille.
Gov. Markell toured the Material Center with DHSS Secretary Rita Landgraf, Specialisterne’s Thorkil Sonne, DVI Director Dan Madrid, DVI Deputy Director Elisha Jenkins, and Material Center Director Matt Tseronis.
As part of his National Governors Association initiative to advance employment opportunities for people with disabilities, Gov. Markell fostered the partnership with Specialisterne and CAI, a global IT company, which has committed that 3% of its workforce will include people with autism by the end of this year.

This kindergarten in Tiraspol received support through two sub-projects: "Rehabilitation of visually impaired children from both banks of Nistru River" and "Enhancing capacities for pre-school education in the city of Tiraspol through reconstruction of the kindergarten no. 44 for visually impaired children", implemented within the “Support to Confidence Building Measures” Programme (Summer 2016).
Residents of Friedman Place, a home for blind and visually impaired men and women, toured portions of the Skokie Northshore Sculpture Park on Oct. 27, 2012. They were excorted by docents from the Sculpture Park who helped them "see" the various sculptures by touching and learning about different textures, materials and shapes.

At the apex of Khmer political and military dominance in the region, Suryavarman II constructed Angkor Wat in the form of a massive 'temple-mountain' dedicated to the Hindu god, Vishnu. It served as his state temple, though the temple’s uncommon westward orientation has led some to suggest that it was constructed as Suryavarman II’s funerary temple. Other temples of the same style and period include Thommanon, Banteay Samre, Wat Atwea and Beng Melea, which may have served as a prototype to Angkor Wat.
Angkor Wat is surrounded by a moat and an exterior wall measuring 1300 meters x 1500 meters. The temple itself is 1 km square and consists of three levels surmounted by a central tower. The walls of the temple are covered inside and out with bas-reliefs and carvings. Nearly 2000 distinctively rendered apsara carvings adorn the walls throughout the temple and represent some of the finest examples of apsara carvings in Angkorian era art. But it is the exterior walls of the lower level that display the most extraordinary bas-reliefs, depicting stories and characters from Hindu mythology and the historical wars of Suryavarman II. It is in the viewing of the bas-reliefs that a tour guide can be very helpful.
The northern reflecting pool in front is the most popular sunrise location. For sunrise, arrive very early, well before sunrise begins. The sun will rise behind Angkor Wat providing a silhouette of Angkor’s distinctively shaped towers against a colored sunrise sky. Some of the best colors appear just before the sun breaks over the horizon.
The visual impact of Angkor Wat, particularly on one's first visit, is awesome. As you pass through the outer gate and get your first glimpse, its size and architecture make it appear two dimensional, like a giant postcard photo against the sky. After you cross through the gate and approach the temple along the walkway it slowly gains depth and complexity. To maximize this effect you should make your first visit in optimal lighting conditions, i.e. after 2:00PM. Do not make your first visit to Angkor Wat in the morning when the backlighting obscures the view.
The first level of is the most artistically interesting. Most visitors begin their exploration with the bas-reliefs that cover the exterior wall of the first level, following the bas-reliefs counterclockwise around the temple. Bas-relief highlights include the mythological Battle of Kuru on the west wall; the historical march of the army of Suryavarman II, builder of Angkor Wat, against the Cham, followed by scenes from Heaven and Hell on the south wall; and the classic ‘Churning of the Ocean Milk’ on the east wall.
The temple interior is not as densely carved as the first level exterior, but still sports hundreds of fine carvings of apsaras and scenes from Hindu mythology. A guide can be quite helpful in explaining the stories of the various chambers, statues and architectural forms to be found in the interior. At the upper-most of your tour of the temple, the central tower on the third level houses four Buddha images, each facing a different cardinal point, highlighting the fact that though Angkor Wat was constructed as a Hindu temple, it has served as a Buddhist temple since Buddhism became Cambodia’s dominant religion in the 14th century. Some say that it is good luck to pay homage to all four Buddha images before departing Angkor.

The Delaware Division for the Visually Impaired (DVI) Smart Social Navigation camp is taking place this week at the University of Delaware. The goal of the career week is to help the students gain insight, self-awareness, exposure and experience to navigate the workplace.
DVI students hosted a networking event Wednesday to practice one-on-one conversations and get a feel what an employer networking event would be like. Prior to the event, students went on a shopping trip to pick out professional attire.
Valerie McNickol, the District Administrator of Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) services, said the program helps students gain confidence, pick up on body language, and cues in a room. "We're building skills and confidence to be able to be successful in employment," said McNickol.
Rhyne, a DVI student, said it felt like it was preparing them for their first year of college by getting to stay a week at the UD campus as well as helping them build stronger social skills, better manners, and overall proper etiquette to navigate the business world one day.
When asked why he felt the program was necessary, William, a DVI student, said it was helping him network and reach his goal of becoming a business owner. William's goal is to make tags for clothes that would help visually impaired people like him know if their clothes are on the right way.

The most colorful and visually spectacular valley in Yellowstone, Wyoming is the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. Two large waterfalls occur along this stretch of the river - the Upper Falls and the Lower Falls.
The rocks of the canyon include rhyolite lava flows, rhyolitic volcanic tuffs, and some sedimentary deposits - all are geologically young and date to the Quaternary.
The yellows, pinks, reds, and oranges indicate the presence of hydrothermally altered rocks. Hydrothermal metamorphism refers to the intense alteration by superheated groundwater. Yellowstone has over 100,000 hydrothermal features in the form of hot springs, geysers, fumaroles, and mudpots.
