Wednesday, March 18th, 2009

36 hours and 5600 images later here’s the final time lapse from yesterday.

More infrared

Friday, September 12th, 2008

I got the chance to get out and play with the infrared camera some more and I’m really pleased with the results I’m getting. There’s still the problem with red leaking through the filter, but other than that I’d consider the project as success. I really like how everything has a wintery feel due to [...]

Infrared Photography

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

I’ve always thought infrared photography looked pretty neat, but I never wanted to deal with the long exposure times necessary to get enough light into the camera to expose the image properly. Since the sensors in digital cameras are sensitive to both infrared and visible light, there’s a piece of glass in between the lens [...]

Out my window

Friday, June 27th, 2008

1.5 hours filmed from my living room window, condensed to about 2 minutes. Taken from approximately 5:30-7:00pm on June 25, 2008.
This is the result of playing with my new camcorder. Processed by converting to an iMovie friendly format with iSquint, and edited in iMovie HD.

The Ubergriddle!

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

I was talking to a friend on IRC the other day when he mentioned making the ultimate McGriddle. Real bacon, real cheese, real pancakes, real syrup, real eggs. I, of course, thought this was a wonderful idea, because if the McGriddle is sex in a wrapper, then surely something made of better ingredients must be [...]

Microdermal Implants

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

Ever since I heard about microdermals over a year ago I found the idea intriguing. Whenever I’d thought about getting any piercings I never figured they’d look right on me so I just hadn’t bothered with them. Microdermals, on the other hand, can be placed pretty much anywhere so I didn’t have to worry about [...]

Paisley Telecaster

Friday, December 21st, 2007

As it’s been over a year since I’ve assembled a guitar and I’ve mostly forgotten how painful the experience is, about a week ago I figured I’d try it again. I’d even forgotten the promise to myself to never, ever, try to shoot lacquer again as the process is time consuming, infuriating and just overall [...]

Cherry liqueur

Thursday, October 18th, 2007

A few months ago some friends returned from a trip to Modesto with a freezerbag full of cherries in tow. I could have made a pie or ice cream or something out of them, but I figured why not have a go at actually making a liqueur out of them. Back in high school I’d [...]
