Compositing

Of my many hats, and believe me, there are many (you should try being my tax guy), one of my favorites is working with c't Digital Photography, a magazine that is a part of the Rocky Nook Family, where my three books have been published.  With c't Digital Photography I work on their social networking.  Basically, I write blogs for their readership. 

What I like so much about this, though, is that I get to be more casual about how I approach my language and ideas.  It occurred to me yesterday that one thing I love to do and haven't written about is Compositing.  So I decided to set up a series of blogs discussing compositing through my relationship at c't Digital Photography.  I'm really excited about it!  It's a fun topic, it's something I teach all the time, and I have never written a word about it until now.

So I encourage you to check out the compositing series, starting today on the c't Digital Photography blog.  Check back weekly for more info!

And Rin is my way of holding up an ugly mirror to hopefully offend people just enough that they realize they hate the imagery because it reveals something nasty about themselves. Of course then the question becomes how do you visualize entitlement? But not just the elite classes entitlement, but this pervasive entitlement that has overtaken the millenial generation? The belief that showing up to clas...

Carl Sagan

When I was in high school we watched a video narrated by Carl Sagan. At one point he was talking about the make up of life and he said something that ended in the phrase "Billions and billions of atoms." If you know Carl Sagan, you know how distinctive his voice and delivery are, so you can understand that why, fifteen years later, I still remember it with proper inflection and aggressive Bs (said properly, there should be some spitting.) This just came to me as I looked over the image of Rin in a previous post. She is starting to multiply and it doesn't seem long before there will be billions and billions of her. Shiver.
