Looking while lunching

December 20, 2010

For over fifty years I’ve felt a fascination about how life “looks” in photographs. No famous people here. I don’t even know these people. No special effects.

In 1990 Fractal Painter came along for another few hundred […]

Wabi-sabi Wednesday (continued)

December 1, 2010

Consider this: Men mine iron ore; smelt it; turn it into steel; form the steel into sheets; transform the sheets into heavy equipment. At each stage labor and resources add value to the ore. People then use the heavy equipment to transform the earth; plant and harvest food; process that food; transport that food to […]
