Wait… how many medias are being used in this one multimedia image exactly???

Posted on July 10, 2018 by pouringmyartout

imageedit_1_4572423305

So, let’s see. Art in general is a media, right? And glass blowing, the manner in which I made this paperweight in the first place, is a specific sub-genre of art in general. Taking the super-close-up-macro-zoom photo, well, photography is a media. And then I did the double mirror image thing in Photoshop, and digital art is a media. And I used another program altogether to make the moving water reflection thing happen. And now, I am posting it on my blog, and blogging is a media. I am also typing words, which is a media.

So, that would be… uh… a whole lot of medias.

And wouldn’t multi medias be medii???

Stick together… part 53…multi-multimedia…

b 1

“How the heck did you do that???”, I hear you asking in astonishment. Well, let me tell you.

b 2

These are all double mirror images… by which I mean I did the mirror image thing twice on each photo…

b 3

And the photos are all the same picture I took when I was playing around with the macro lenses and doing super close up photography…

b 4

… of that paper weight that was the first project I did in my glass blowing class, lit up from below with colored LED lights, in a dark kitchen.

b 10

That right there is the original photo before the mirror image magic.

Stick together… part 52… mountains… part 2…

a 1

I love that a simple mirror image effect can make things look like works of art.

Matterhorn

Not that a mountain isn’t already a work of art.

Matterhorn

It just changes the way you look at things.

a 2

Figuring out where to place the cut in order to copy and flip part of the picture over makes me pay more attention to what is in the photo.

a 3

It makes me not only look more closely at the whole image, but at the individual parts as well.

a 4

It is always good to be reminded that looking at something is not the same as seeing it.

Stick together… part 51… mountains… part 1…

a 1

A mirror image effect on Half Dome in Yosemite, California.

a 2

So… uh… I guess that would be called Full Dome???

a 3

Now, if I move the split-line for the mirror effect over just a little, you get something completely different.

a 4

But I think I like the up-and-down split even more.

Wow. Number 50 of this weird mirror image series.

This might be a record. Usually the crack squirrels living in my head get board and veer off long before this.

We saw Spamalot last night, after some Mexican food and margaritas!

A superb evening of silliness.

We saw it at a quaint little theater in Old Town in San Diego.

I saw some nice yellow flowers between dinner and the play.

It was a whole tree of them.

The seed pods looked like beans.

No, I didn’t meet Eric in person… again.

I don’t know if smoking weed would help tRump make America great, but it might make him a little less annoying. I mean him smoking some. Maybe it would help him to relax. It is worth a shot. I know a lot of other people are smoking it to make him a little less annoying.
