A short little comp for testing my new Harinezumi camera! It's a bundle of fun and can go just about anywhere with me. Added bonus, since it's so small and looks nothing like what most people are used to seeing as a "camera" you can get great candid street shots.

Cheers!

Once upon a time, we awoke with a new question on our mind. We didn't quite know what the buzz and bustle of a Brooklyn afternoon would bring. In search of nothing more than some fresh answers, we found a few dreams instead.

It's a simple question and the answers can lead us anywhere. So go ahead, ask yourself…

December 12th 2008 : Edurelief update !

Thanks to all of you who watched and enjoyed Capucine's story, "Once upon a time" has made the rounds on Internet.

I wanted to put Capucine's popularity to a good use, and with the help of several awesome persons, we have set up a project in order to raise money for Edurelief, a development organization based in Mongolia, who helps providing school books to Mongolian kids.

Edurelief has a Vimeo account, where you can learn more about their work.

vimeo.com/user276165

Jonathan, Edurelief's founder, is willing to dedicate all the proceeds we make to a specific project called "Capucine's Library", which would benefit several hundreds kids in Mongolia. We will track progress and provide photos, films, and results of this project. If you want to support Capucine and her library, you can order from the T-shirts and magnets shops following links :

skreened.com/capucine
zazzle.com/capucha

or if you prefer, you can also make a dedicated donation on Edurelief's website, on the Capucine's fundraiser special page :

edurelief.org/involved/people-capucine

Every contribution, even the smallest one, will make a difference !

A huge thank you to those of you who have already supported us, and to those who will be willing to join us in this new adventure for Capucine :-)

<3 <3 <3 Anne

A breathtaking story by Capucine. Starring baby monkeys lost in frightening trees, a witch, crocodiles, a tiger, a "popotamus" and a lion, and even a "tremendously very bad mammoth". There are also magic powers and an orange ring, but sometimes, "something goes amiss".
Bring your popcorn and enjoy the show.

100 and one faces. 101 faces

Playing off the theme of a recent video contest, « Transformation : Live and React », Julien Lassort and Matthieu Burlot (France) explored the human face, the most exposed and personal part of the human body. Their dynamic portrayal of 1000 and one faces is a mosaic of portraits and emotions that plays off of the power of faces seen close up. Julien Fargo composed the melody that encapsulates the film.

Questo quadro in movimento delle "1000 e una faccia" ci offre un mosaico di ritratti ed emozioni che giocano sulla potenza dei visi in primo piano.
In più, Julien Fargo è il compositore di questa melodia in cui si racchiude l'essenza di questo film.

I spent 11 days in Europe in September. I went without a plan, by myself. All I knew is that I was going to visit Berlin since I had a friend there, and that I needed to fly out of Heathrow on the following Tuesday. Everything between was more or less played by ear.

The first days were lonely, I was lucky enough to meet some cool people at the hostel I was staying at in Paris and traveled with them a bit. Berlin was great since I already knew someone and could easily get to know all their friends. It was just such a fun, spontaneous, adventure. Exactly what I wanted it to be.

The vidblog was edited sequentially, meaning I didn't rearrange any of the shots in time - for the most part it's an accurate, linear showcase of who I met and where I went. Enjoy.

This was an HDR time-lapse from Twin Peaks. It was a glorious moment because mother nature was behaving, unlike the last 2 early morning efforts where I was too fogged in. I was also shooting with my new Nikon D700 and a new 14-24mm ultrawide which is just a great combo since the D700 is a full frame camera!

Music is RJD2's remix of Astrud Gilberto's, Gentle Rain. ABC News here in SF did a cool little piece on My HDR Time-lapse work- You can see the video here: abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/drive_to_discover&id=6362682

The application works by assuming a constant viewing angle (35-45 degrees), typical for when the device is placed on a tabletop.

The 3d scene's perspective is then warped using anamorphic perspective, making the object appear to jump off the screen.

I was in this room at folk fest working on my computer when all these musicians started coming in and out of the room jamming then leaving then jamming more. I had my camera with me so i started filming. The sound quality turned out unusable so i thought i'd make my own song up and instead of highlighting the music, i would focus on the way people groove while making music and the energy that comes from a jam session.

This video shows the test of a software developed as a programming exercise.

The image is digitally manipulated by fragmenting it into horizontal lines and then combining lines from different frames in the display. The result is a distorsion of the figures caused by their motion in time, or, as Brazilian researcher Arlindo Machado calls it: chronotopic anamorphosis.

The effect was completely based on Zbigniew Rybczynski's "The Fourth Dimension", but transposed to Processing programming environment and performed in real-time.

The software still has some memory issues, specially when the image rendering is combined with video recording, as it can be seen in this video.

This experiment was made within the context of Marginalia Project. More information about it, as well as the source code of this software [soon], can be found at marginalia-project.blogspot.com.

The 36" x 24" print can be purchased at my new store! store.thebigpugh.com

This piece inspired the login illustration that vimeo commissioned from me for their redesign earlier this year; it is still in use throughout the site. The video is a condensed time lapse of screenshots over a several month period. Total physical drawing time is close to 40 hours and I'd add an equal amount of time for concept time and readying the print. A screenshot was taken every 5 seconds, which actually results in a full 18 minute video, but I shrunk it into a video under 7 minutes for entertainment's sake. The full video can be found here: vimeo.com/1015679

My life has changed a lot since i started this, so I thought it appropriate to include my friends, family and loved ones since they all were on my mind throughout the creative process. The music is from Portishead's latest album, here: amazon.com/Third/dp/B0018CA996/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=dmusic&qid=1219248848&sr=8-2
