This webmaster is the cross spider : The Spider of the year 2010, seen through the lens of my P&S camera. A scary little fellow for me and many other people, but I believe this photo isn’t too frightful, is it? For a better experience: view large, please.
I will have a short Flickr break soon: a romantic Halloween with my hubby.

The Spoonful of Sugar Festival
webmaster@thesosfestival.com
Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) Doctors Without Borders, is an international, independent, medical humanitarian organization that delivers emergency aid to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural disasters and exclusion from healthcare.
MSF offers assistance to people based on need, irrespective of race, religion, gender or political affiliation. The Spoonful Of Sugar Festival has won awards, and we have grown to be well known and celebrated as an SL Charity event. But none of that comes close to how rewarding just being a part of this event is.
In four events we have raised $40,000 USD for MSF/Doctors Without Borders. We are projected to hit $50,000 USD by the end of this year's coming event. To say we are proud is beyond understatement.This truly is a festival. It is a celebration of a global-wide response to humanity that evidently people here in Second Life take very seriously. Many of those in Second Life have made it known that we see the right to physical and mental health care on a global scale, and that we don't take human injustice lightly or miss a chance to help where we can.We anticipate this event will bring 200 of Second Life’s finest designers, entertainers and participants covering six regions. Each new event is full of lovely people, always in a lovely place and we are all so excited about this next one!We want to invite each of you to come be a part of this.
To participate in any way you will; to design, to create, to shop, to learn and inform others about MSF/Doctors without Borders. Join us for what is being called the "Sweetest Fund Raiser in SL", The 2019 Spoonful Of Sugar Festival to benefit MSF/Doctors Without Borders.Peace,

"I just did a week's worth of cardio after walking through a spider's web!"
( Ecard saying and SO true!)
I'm glad I didn't walk through this huge one.
Sandy reminded me this qualifies for Happy Fence Friday too!
I noticed this extremely tiny, maybe 1/16th inch or 2 mm, spider in the begonias. Almost couldn't see it. I became intent, ok, obsessed :-), with getting a few photos of it. People walking by couldn't figure out what I was taking a photo of. :) Sorry for so many, most of which are not in sharp focus due to it move quickly and my leaning over trying to handheld my macro lens, but had to try. The bright morning sun blew out some of its fine details.
Sorry for so many photos again. All from the same morning walk yesterday. Saving since very cloudy today with chances of severe storms tonight and Sunday. No need to comment. :)
Here's the whole spider. My previous image was of just her pincer
She is the creator of the Spider Constellation I posted here
Shot of a spider in our garden, taken with my Nikon D300 through a Sigma 70mm f2.8 macro lens and illuminated by a cheap Marumi ring flash. The shot was 1.7 stops underexposed.
I believe this to be the European Garden Spider (Araneus diadematus)

This one definitely not in focus but liked the diminishing lines and angles of the web so saving it anyway. :)

[Profile]
Studied symbology through chemistry in high school and literature in college before joining an advertising firm just prior to finishing a doctoral course. Placed in charge of analyzing words such as copy development. Later became a teacher of semiotics while simultaneously studying computer software. Became the webmaster of a university in 2003 and began producing graphic art under codenames like "Retrofuturs" and "Hulk4598" in 2009. Held a large exhibition at gallery NO/ID* in Toulon this spring. Currently resides in Tain l'Hermitage, France.
[Interview]
+81: Tell us about your background.
Stéphane Massa-Bidal (SMB): I studied semiotics in college. Semiotics is a language science, and I now use that knowledge its codes and sensibilities to graphic art. After graduating I was in charge of analyzing phrases and words at an advertising firm and at the University, and I also have experience as a teacher of semiotics and conference. From there I also studied software that could be used to make graphic art. Last but not least, from 2003 to the present I've been working as managing editor of a certain university. Though I started making graphic art about two and a half years ago, I've never formally studied graphic design. I've just been blessed with a lot of graphic artist friends and chances to encounter graphics, so it was a perfect situation for me to start designing as well.
+81: So graphic design isn't your regular job?
SMB: I think of myself as more of an artist who creates things freely than a professional designer who gets commissioned to take on jobs. I am slowly getting more and more requests, but my work is very cyclical and contains many elements that are critical of society, so it isn't like I am ever seeing a huge amount of work come in (laughs).
+81: How did you come up with your current style of mixing typography with images like photos and illustrations?
SMB: Linguistics is my field of specialty, so I would say it is the text that has established my style. My ultimate goal is to bring about "allusions" and "dialog" within a single image by incorporating different images. My favorites of my own series are "Landscape Numbers" and "New Horizons", in which I came up with a method of adding new meaning by removing parts of images and replacing them with those of other images in collages. By doing this each image will carry its own image and radiate appeal. It's hard for me to describe my own style, but I think that I am always talking about a single image while at the same time trying to express different things.
+81: So is the source of inspiration for each of your series different as well?
SMB: The initial ideas for "New Horizons" came from the works of René Magritte and the movie "Stargate". There's a certain piece by Magritte where a person's face has been replaced by an apple. I had an idea to redesign it architecturally and place numbers taken from Stargate. In addition to giving it an allure that deceives the eye, I think I was able to create an even greater appeal that of the original illustration and photos.
+81: How do you find and select the photos, illustrations, and other images used in your work?
SMB: I own a lot of old books, photo collections, and encyclopedias, so I often look in them, but I also spend about 2 hours a day looking around on the Internet. I don't take photos, and I don't draw, but I can collect images put them together in collages (laughs). Still, when making pieces that quote some specific element it can difficult to find images that are related to that theme.
+81: Do you compose the piece after selecting all the images you will use, or do you decide upon the composition first and then go looking for images that suit it?
SMB: It varies. Sometimes an idea comes to me first and then I think of ways to build upon it, while at other times I have a clear image of the piece first and then use that as a starting point to find photos and drawings. With the "Elements" series, for example, I first prepared all the photos and illustrations and only then built up a concept. The first piece I made in the series contained the text "EARTH". I had just happened to come across a landscape photo with the same scenery shot from the exact same location in both winter and summer, so I collaged those two images together. Using EARTH as a base, I added more pieces and built up the Elements series.
+81: While we're sure that your imagination is essential to your images, what other sources of inspiration do you have?
SMB: My daily life. I listen to the things people say. I always ponder the things I hear and connect them with other elements in my mind. In that way I'm not just perceiving the information as is, but from a slightly different angle. One example of a piece born from my daily life is "Helvistica". One day while on the train I had an idea to make piece using Helvetica, but I just couldn't come up with a good concept. Just then a tune by Elvis Presley came up on my iTunes, and I suddenly had the idea for Helvistica. That piece is a true product of coincidence. It was a simple idea, but I think the more simple things are the better the results. "Web Services Covers Therapy" started when I suddenly remembered while walking down the hallway at home an idea that had been rattling around in my head for many years to do something with social networks and Penguin book series. My way of doing things is to apply one code to another and challenge the viewer. My job, and the true role of symbology, is to analyze several phenomenon and find the relationship between them. Facebook and Twitter are already widely known, but I wanted to convey the history behind them.
+81: Are there any parts of your image creation process that require you to work by hand?
SMB: I don't draw any of the images myself, so I never have to do anything by hand. I never leave behind any production images, and even if I did they wouldn't be worth showing off. But, I have presented some of my albums collecting the images I have used to make my work. They're kind of like something in between portfolios and inspiration books.
+81: What part of the production process do you spend the most time on?
SMB: I've never really put too much time into production. I work at a pace of one piece a day, with each piece taking around 40 minutes or so. I think that if I spend too much time on a single piece it causes the initial idea to waste away and lose what made it interesting. Up until recently I was spending a lot more time by making more detailed collages and messing with Photoshop, but I changed my work method and began making broader use of illustrations and photos. Thanks to this I have been able to produce results faster.
+81: Tell us about some of your on-going projects.
SMB: Right now I have 2 projects I am working on. One is something similar to Google's location search feature called "G Project". It features original illustrations about Geolocalization, that I have asked a friend (Cavadkp) to supply. The other is an apron and tee shirt (in french) with a message written on it. I also work with my friend Dom on a concept of spoonerisms in french (les contrepetographes).
In other ways, I'm going to redesign furnitures, like Louis XV chest of drawers.
So I guess you could say that I don't have any hard rules about what I do or any fixed style. I've never studied graphic art, so I'm not bound by any of its tenets. But I think this is my strength. If I had to name one element that carries through in all of my work, it would be the analytical ability that comes from the way my brain works. At any rate, I could narrow down the keywords used to describe my work to "linguistics" and "life".

Figlio di Giapeto e Oceano, cugino di Zeus.
Prometeo era un titano buono e affezionato agli umani, in contrasto con Zeus, che meditava di sterminarli tutti.
Quando Prometeo e suo fratello Epimeteo furono incaricati di distribuire qualità e difese agli animali, Epimeteo dimenticò gli uomini, che furono però risarciti da Prometeo: egli rubò infatti da un cofanetto di Atena l'intelligenza e la memoria. Regalo non gradito da Zeus, che punì gli uomini togliendo loro il fuoco, anche in seguito ad un'ulteriore astuzia di Prometeo in favore degli uomini, che costò loro l'immortalità.
Per rimediare, Prometeo entrò una notte di nascosto nell'Olimpo (con l'aiuto di Atena) e rubò alcune fiamme dal carro di Apollo-Elio, il Sole. Fuggì subito dopo, donando il fuoco agli uomini.
Acortosi dell'ennesimo raggiro, Zeus si arrabbiò tremendamente, giurando sul fiume Stige (un giuramente vincolante per gli Dei) di fargliela pagare.
Così il gentile Prometeo venne incatenato alla cima più alta del Caucaso e costretto a subire una terribile tortura: al sorgere del sole un'aquila inviata da Zeus straziava il suo addome con il becco e gli artigli, gli mangiava il fegato e poi volava via. Durante la notte però il fegato ricresceva e le ferite rimarginavano, per permettere che la tortura si perpetrasse ogni mattina.
Il castigo durò 3.000 anni, fino a quando non venne Eracle, col permesso del padre Zeus, a salvarlo.

I've been collecting links to cute websites for a couple of years now and previously was the "webmaster" of cute.startkabel.nl/. Recently I've decided to make a seperate section on my domain for it.
It's been a while since I created a website for my own purpose and I really enjoyed doing so. I hope you'll like the site! -> www.kao-ani.com/cute/
The illustration was purchased from Istockphoto and is created by www.idokungfoo.com/ I've played with it a bit to make a nice header with it.
By the way; IE 6 is having this weird bug where the footer jumps down when you hover over a link. So far I haven't been able to figure it out and actually I don't want to waste much time on it ;-) I'm not sure if this is the peek-a-boo bug, since those fixes didn't seem to work...
I had some trouble with Penny last month. I don't know why but sometimes I am so focussed on making her listen and making her behave perfect that I completely forget where walking with her is about: having fun.
Penny is really smart, so when she noticed this, she became even more stubborn that she usually is. On this way, she tried to make me clear that walks aren't only about obedience.
Now I started to do things different again. I try to keep her off leash as much as possible (of course only on safe places) and I try to spend less time on making her listen. This made walking much more fun again for me and for Penny

This photo was initially published in my local photo blog about the citizens of my area in Montréal. quartiersnord.photos/les-gens-the-people/
Although he is native and resident of Montréal-Nord, I met David in Ahuntsic Park with his friend Adrian, who lives in Pierrefonds. The two friends got to know each other through a cousin of David.
David told me about a project that came to his mind in January of this year. He is the initiator of a group which prepares the launch of a Web portal called NUWLA for September 21. A corporation was registered for this purpose and small investors of African descent from various cities in North America are financing it. Adrian, a graphic designer and Webmaster graduated from Vanier College, is part of this group.
In the words of David, NUWLA is aimed to the « black conscious community ». From what I understand, NUWLA is intended to be a place where the active members will post blogs on a variety of subjects such as health, education and business, but with an emphasis on promoting purchases and investments within in the black community around the world.
This portal should also be used to host individual web pages. For now, it has only a Web page with a countdown to the launch date and a presence in social media. Simply type NUWLA on your favorite search engine. This is a project that seems ambitious.
As agreed with the young men, I give you the addresses of their websites. You may get an idea of he success of their efforts this fall at:
Good luck to David and Adrian!
Cette photo fait partie de mon projet 100 Strangers (100 inconnus). Apprenez en plus sur ce type de projet et voyez les photos d’autres photographes à 100 Strangers Flickr Group page
Cette photo a initialement été publiée sur mon blogue local dédié aux citoyens de mon quartier de Montréal quartiersnord.photos/les-gens-the-people/
Bien qu’il soit natif et résident de Montréal-Nord, c’est dans le Parc Ahuntsic que j’ai fait la rencontre de David et son ami Adrian qui habite Pierrefonds. Les deux amis se sont connus par l’entremise d’un cousin de David.
David m’a parlé d’un projet dont il a eu l’idée en janvier de cette année. Il est l’initiateur d’un groupe avec lequel il prépare, pour le 21 septembre, la mise en ligne d’un portail WEB nommé NUWLA. Une corporation a été enregistrée à cet effet et de petits investisseurs afro-canadiens et afro-américains provenant de diverses villes en Amérique du Nord en sont les financiers. Adrian, designer graphique et webmestre diplômé du Collège Vanier, fait partie de ce groupe.
NUWLA sera destiné, selon les propres termes de David, à la communauté noire consciente (Black conscious community). De ce que j’ai compris, il s’agira d’un lieu où les membres actifs tiendront des blogues sur une grande variété de sujets tels la santé, l’éducation et les affaires, mais avec une emphase sur la promotion des achats et investissements auprès d’entrepreneurs de leur communauté partout dans le monde.
Ce portail devrait aussi servir à héberger des pages web individuelles. Pour le moment, il n’a qu’une page WEB avec un compte à rebours vers le lancement et une présence dans les médias sociaux. Vous n’avez qu’à taper NUWLA sur votre moteur de recherche préféré. Il s’agit d’un projet qui semble ambitieux.
Tel qu’entendu avec les jeunes hommes, je vous communique les adresses de leurs sites internet. Vous pourrez vous faire une idée du succès de leur démarche dès cet automne.
Bon succès à David et Adrian!
