G'Day, Bruce and Sheila!



"Hi
Through a Google search we found some great images on your site
www.glyphjockey.com and wondered about conditions of using images as outlined below.

My colleague and I have an organisation (in Melbourne Australia) that provides training for workers and families with a person with brain injury.

Some of the images on your site would be perfect to illustrate aspects of working with people with brain injury. If we were to use it we would use it on a Power point slide and in handouts provided to participants attending our workshop.

Can you shed any light on whether we are able to use the images and what conditions there are on use.

Look forward to hearing from you
Regards"


Need I elucidate that when someone finally has a legitimate use for my images it's to help illustrate aspects of working with people with brain injuries? While I am happy to help, and kudos to these folks for choosing such a challenging field, the irony is not lost on me.

God Fever

My daughter showed me this: (click on pic for HUGE but not giant, version)



They feature many highlights of religion, like:

Son killing as bluff-


The mass killing of those who failed to toe the line, or as god looked at it a "do over":


Infanticide based poker style conflict resolution:


The creation of countless widows and orphans:


Moses gets found featuring Margaret O'Brien:


Susan Hayward and Victor Mature:


Menacing Egyptians (a "don't touch my lunch !" sticker)


...and my fave Station of the Cross, Veronica !

Ambient Image Corrupted Birds

This is a series of 21 images meant to be viewed with browser on full screen and left up, to cycle - 1 image every 2 seconds. Images are taken from tiny (1") illustrations from The Observers Book of British Birds. (see earlier post on Liverworts and Mosses) The resultant image corruption via enlargement and compressions is soothing blobby yet easily recognizable color and intent in scientific illustration. There are no controls- you cannot pause, go back or index.

So put on your Mozart, Boards of Canada, Eno, Autechre, or whatever and let it cycle.....

.....or go and see and listen to the birds in your yard and let that cycle.
