Transcendance and Immanence

Copley farmer’s market

My parents got me my first digital camera ever for last Christmas (I know, but I had a good film camera that lasted for years), but I have only now gotten around to buying batteries and learning how to use it. I spent the whole day taking pictures and then editing them with iphoto. These are my first attempts to enter the world of digital photography. I’ll post a few here, but follow this link to see the rest.

Thanks to Ze Frank for this discovery. You can read the Wired article here or check out Buelteman’s website. He does something with electricity that I don’t quite understand, but I love the results. Here are some of my favorites.

Picasso and light drawing

Jan29

Another fun haus dinner at 71 ending in random conversation and collective internet searching led to a discussion about long exposure in photographs and Picasso’s light drawing.

Brilliant, the drawing and the photography. The question is, how is Picasso not blurry from movement? Joel had almost the right answer; the full story can be found here.
