fuck
I just accidentally bought two identical cameras off ebay on accident
Finally quit being lazy and filled out a photographer application for my school newspaper. Talked to the photo editor and she showed me all of the equipment they have. Not too bad, I forgot what bodies they use but lenses are a lot nicer than what i have. Couple of 70-200 2.8s, wide angles, and a 300mm.
already got my first assignment this friday to shoot swim and dive :dance: Finally getting back into shooting sports again!

You might lose interest sooner or later but remember, it's good practice.
So I went to a local art exhibition and about anachronism in modern art and they had, I shit you not, pictures done in Garrys Mod reproduced on canvas, seize maybe 1.5 x 0.7 metres.
One of male_07 standing in a doorframe with a light above him and one of the citizens in HL2 cowering in the corner when shortly before the combine burst into the flat in that level where you get saved by Alyx.
All that between gigantic resized pictures of old postcards, paintings from 1700s, art sculptures and all kinds of other stuff.
Very surreal

should tell garry so he can claim some royalties
Who knew that Garry's mod could be used for things other than sex poses

Weird
I guess most people won't recognise it from HL2 and think it's just an a creative choice to make some things look like a video game. But I mean, all the artist has done is take models, textures, maps, etc all made by someone else and pose a couple of ragdolls.

There was also a "performance video" of CS:S matches where he changed his name to "don't kill me" and had a script that spammed "don't kill me" in chat and did suicide when he was the last team player to prove how people will mindlessly kill online or something.

Seems more like some artistic interpretation of your average 12 year old fragger. I actually came across some1 playing like that one day, too pussy to get shot.
I still have around 2k pictures to sort and process from the wedding I shot. Ugh.

All visual artists do is splash together paints they didn't make on canvas they didn't weave, weird.

Ed’s Session
Ed began by introducing to us his experience of being a
member of another P2P network. When he was young, age 16, he was a member of an
online forum connected to a video game. Seven years on, the game itself is
obsolete but the forum is thriving with over 14,000 members discussing anything
and everything. Ed’s interest, in particular, is photography, and he is now an
active member of one such sub-community within the forum. His vignette demonstrated
the organic and spontaneous way in which his network developed. From a group of
gaming teenagers a mutually enriching, supportive and tangible network of
people with a shared interest evolved. In fact, so much so, members have begun
to meet-up in person creating transnational projects. P2Ps can, therefore, be
hugely fruitful, positive experiences that arise from the most unlikely places
and in novel ways.
With this in mind, we went upstairs to embark upon an
unknown quest. Our challenge was to create complete darkness using copious amounts
of tin foil and duck-tape. Here are some
words which sprang to mind during the, not so easy, light eliminating process.
Team-work / technique / perseverance / intrigue /
uncertainty / differentiated roles / competing ideas / complimentary ideas /
leadership / defeat / materiality of tools / battle against time and the sun /
creativity / expertise
In short, the process took much longer than expected. It
involved numerous different attempts and finally Ed had to take over and show
us the tried and tested technique! All along, we had no idea the purpose of our
quest which added to the mystique and intrigue.
SOME TIME PASSED…… ;)
A pitch-black room + a small hole carved in the foil blinds
+ a white sheet pinned to the wall = A CAMERA OBSCURER = SUPER COOL!!!!
Suddenly the entire room had been transformed into a giant
camera. The outside world, reflected through a tiny hole, began bouncing—not
only onto the white sheet but—around the surfaces of the room. Sat in the
darkness, we were awed by what we saw and discussed some of the following
points.
An alternative world view / Can it be considered photography
if it’s not permanent? / Perspective / Master painters used this method / A
representation of reality / Sound-scapes of inside-outside relationships / Spying
on the sheep / What is left behind when you take away the ‘normal’ experience
of something? / Voyeurism / Akin to fishing – catching the world / Seeing the
world as a faded postcard / Plato’s cave – leaving behind your chains / Flattening
the world / Seeing this way makes it more interesting than seeing it out there
/ Familiar yet different / A living photograph / Theatrical / Thoughtfulness in silence and darkness / The different ways
you can view the world / Filter / Parts containing the whole (George’s
hologram) / A radio receiver from the mind outside to the brain inside /
Consciousness – relational feedback / The separation of the consciousness from
the corporeal being / A community project using the camera obscurer /
Para-cinema during the 70’s – no camera, film, actors but thinking of the
sunrise and sunset as the cinema /
In conclusion, Ed encouraged us to take stock, to enjoy
the silence, to use the environment we’d created as a fulfilling experience to
explore new thoughts. The camera obscurer provided us with a living metaphor
within which to do this.
Came home from work early the other day, probably a good thing too... One of our older horses (the old cranky bastard basically) had literally just plowed right through a brand new high power electric fence as if it weren't there, sneaked over to the other yard, ripped the rug off the mini horse then smashed the gate and broke HIM free too... so I come home and they're just hanging out by the dam like "Oh hey, what's up?".

And I got a nice surprise... Outside the doors of my cabin there's this passionfruit bush that's taking over a big tree branch there. I was watering the passionfruit when I spotted a birds nest built into it. It's cool because for months every morning the birds all swarm the passionfruit tree and eat all the fruits and flowers, and I guess they decided it's safe enough to build a nest into;

I'm slowly introducing the girl I've been seeing into photography! Started her off with my Pentax 645 in Auto and had her load the film herself. I'm trying to get her hooked, before I toss her in the deep end and start teaching her the technical stuff.
She wants to teach me how to dance! :dance:
Just got my midterm assignment. I have to take three pictures based on the word 'stone'.

I haven't seen you, but I haven't really been looking out.
Most of the time I'm in the basements in the engineering labs and robotics workshops.
[editline]10th October 2013[/editline]
Like 1/3 of my year buy Tesco Value OJ and drink it throughout the day out of the bottle in lectures.
It's like a fad.
