Geek tee

www.thinkgeek.com
I can't believe that I actually saw a guy on the bus wearing this tee today. Sadly I am 1 of the 10 different kinds of people that understood this...sigh. If you want to take a refresher course or need more info on understanding geek tees visit the binary wiki.

'Laisser tomber' diptych, left panel complete.


I have finally finished the left panel of my new diptych titled 'Laisser tomber' and I am now working on completing the right panel. Hopefully it won't take me as long to finish it off. My goal is to have it done before going off to Spain.

Make your own Hockney or interactive street map.


First let me say, this was developed by some cool people in a not very cool place, Microsoft labs. So that means you can't make a synth if you have a mac, and you can't view a synth using Google Chrome. You also need some pretty good processing speed and some patience. This is a new thing, so its still a bit buggy, but I can hardly wait to see how it develops. I shot the photos for this synth very quickly, and actually I had photographed the dvd label details on the shelf. You can't see it all in one shot though because I didn't do enough medium shots before doing the close-ups. Taking loads of overlapping photos is the key, because it gets compiled with texture recognition...some trial and error is going to be necessary. Expect to see some more synths from me in the future!
