Video
Seeing what x264 and WP’s Flash-based compression do to one of my vids. Resolution seems better, but load time is a bitch.

Refractions
Playing with the morning sunlight and a glass of iced coffee. Looking at recurring patterns of light.

Space
Seems Jupiter‘s been in the news lately. A few images that caught my eye: This also resembles that:

Art
Went home to STL, and discovered the work of local artist Lisa Lenke (who, strangely, does not seem to have a website). Sculpture from sugar.
-
Photography
Two painted transparencies, layered and composited in Photoshop. Like the inner chamber of the heart, rendered plastic.

Video
Creatively on summer holiday. A test video from the “Polar” gestation period. Part one. Picture at 18 seconds in. Not at all pleased with this Flash-based compression that WordPress uses, but I’ve yet to discover a decent format that doesn’t kill all the detail.

Video
A single painted filmstrip, plus the twirl filter in Final Cut Pro toolbox. Not serious. Just seeing what pushing a button will do. Not much. But it’s pretty.

Walkabout
An unexpected discovery in Inwood Park, proving solitude can still be had in the biggest city in the nation.
