I was fooling around with taking stereograms by shooting one shot out of my right eye and one shot out of my left.

Stuff near and around my house. Using a viewer is best, but crosseyed viewing also works.

OnkelChrispy at Flickr has a different way of look at TV through his kamera:



Like a series of watercolors influenced by Turner - with spacemen & muppets.

Been riding around with these. Some Moblog-ish others, no. So, I just figured I'd post 'em:

My Older daughter was fortunate enough to see The White Stripes live recently. I asked her to get me just one good shot of Jack playing, and she could use my camera.

Mission accomplished. This is a girl who, as a baby could communicate clearly without words. First baby I ever saw that always wanted to wear a hat. She'd go into a drugstore with me and organize all the items on the lowest shelves perfectly. She also had weird baby mojo that, whenever she walked up to a soda machine, she'd get a free soda just by pressing the buttons.

Here's the pic- it's also a link to a wallpaper:

Passing by - had to stop. The uncomfortableness Timmy had about walking through cemeteries has finally passed - 20 years after his death. Good 19th century sculpture, plus modern zing. Looky. Link @ pic

I was working on a post and noted that the file naming protocols from different camera manufacturers were pretty fixed. I consider it a hassle sometimes, and because I don't feel like doing it - I assumed others must be the same way. So I Googled it.

The slide show at in the link at the pic below will take you to people, places and things I've never met, been to or touched.

Try it - it's strange how diverse the images can be....

THE THEORY: I own stuff. The only way (ordinarily) you'd get to see it would be to get to know me, get to my house, be close enough to me to actually rummage through my stuff, and then hope the trip wasn't a waste after seeing it, or listening to it, or watching it.

But hey, web2.0, baby. I've got stuff that's rotting or damaged and yet I can give you the content. I've got stuff that's worthless but interesting and I can give you the content. Let's share some content.

That's The Theory.

These images are from Lands and Peoples - Volume III - The Near and the Middle East. The printing date is 1961, but first printing was 1938, and that's when I suspect the following images originate from.

They're very painterly - some are damn pre-raphaelite-ish. The originals are almost devoid of black as part of the four-color printing process - they're pastel - and beautiful as originals - but pretty much untranslateable without shipping it out to a company like Northern Micrographics (I guess that's where the GlyphJockey motto of "everything is for sale" comes into play - hah?)

Regardless they are sumptuous middle way images, of exotic cultures, and I'm going to do entries about this stuff until I've run through all the volumes I have.

(Obviously pics are links. I've also quit doing "target= "_blank"", which makes stuff open in a new window. Get Firefox already, and open stuff in new tabs by clicking on your wheel or your middle button.)

On to the images:
