Layers of Memories
—
Cemeteries are the final place where generations will often overlap. The place where time overlaps grow the longer we look at them. Like museums where at first 10 years tell 100 stories, but given the timeline, 100 years tell 3 or 4. This started as a photo, but human decisions about which and where algorithms…

Art and Commit Messages: Generative Art based on WordPress commit messages
Generative art is a unique form of digital creativity that combines algorithms and artistic expression. The artist sets the rules, but the computer program carries out the creation process. Commit messages are simple ways of knowing work has been completed, and ideally why. For this exercise, I used a browser-based version of stable diffusion. The…

Infrared Upper East Side
—
Spent part of my Sunday walking through central park with both my infrared and standard light cameras. The upper east side around the Guggenheim captured my eye. Here are a couple of different angles. All photos shot with a 590nm converted Nikon d5000.

An initial launch date of October 14 and there have been reports for supply issues, had me worried. That worry was unfounded…

Let’s Go Other Sox
—
This year the White Sox performed exactly as I thought they would. They won a bunch of games and coasted to a division tittle but showed they still had a lot of room for growth. The playoff were a different story, and one that was disappointing to watch. They couldn’t hit, they couldn’t pitch, and…

Currently Reading
—
In the absence of being able to visit musuems, I’ve been looking through art books. It’s not quite the same, but it does give me a chance to get to know an artist or an exhbit that I might not otherwise know. Currently I’ve been reading a Jasper Johns book by Michael Crichton. Yes, the…

Art in Quarentine
—
I’ve been finding it harder to finish work. Somethings I’ll start throw away. Something will sit in some state of unfinshed. Others I won’t even start. It’s been difficult. I don’t really have the answer, but I’m trying to get myself sketching and making more regularly. I need the outlet.
