Taken in the Banking and Finance end of London, this curved building provided some really interesting shots. This was my favourite and I just love the way the reflection is broken or fractured so hence the title.

This fractal image was created in Apophysis 2.06c 3D hack using some methods that I have been experimenting with recently. An interesting fact is that the texture of my image comes from a transform that uses the julian and disc variations and then was lowered out of the image using z translate, so this variation is not actually seen in the final image, but without it there wouldn’t really be a texture. The second transform which is the actual “fabric” comes from a combination of bubble, pre_blur, rectangles, oscilloscope, bipolar and hemisphere. And the last transform simply uses bubble and pre_blur with a bit of z translate to put it in the correct space. No post or final transforms were used. And, here’s a bit of me that’s reverting to my good old physics/astronomy (Gotta love physics!): According to Einstein, space itself can be thought to be like a fabric. Imagine placing a bowling ball on the surface of a mattress. The bowling ball will cause the mattress to dip downwards where it is touching. Imagine this bowling ball to be the Sun now. The planets go around in their ever widening circles because of the way that the Sun is effecting space. In my picture above, you can see the curving of the space around the sphere. But also, what happens to the sphere if space itself is fractured? Will the sphere sink downwards through the fabric? That is a question that I had once, and I suspect it will be a long time until there is an answer for it.

I introduce you to one of My Spiritual Guides – Joseph Lister who first made himself known to me four years ago. I have experienced some very profound and life changing directions due to this astonishing man. Conditions in operating theaters in hospitals were very unhygienic at the middle of the nineteenth century. As a result some 50 percent of patients died due to infection after surgery. / In 1865, Lister read about the work done by Louis Pasteur on how wine was soured. Lister believed that it was microbes carried in the air that caused diseases to be spread in wards. People who had been operated on were especially vulnerable as their bodies were weak and their skin had been cut open so that germs could get into the body with more ease. / Lister decided that the wound itself had to be thoroughly cleaned. He then covered the wound with a piece of lint covered in carbolic acid. He used this treatment on patients who had a compound fracture. This is where the broken bone had penetrated the skin thus leaving a wound that was open to germs. Death by gangrene was common after such an accident. Lister covered the wound made with lint soaked in carbolic acid. His success rate for survival was very high. / Lister then developed his idea further by devising a machine that pumped out a fine mist of carbolic acid into the air around an operation. The number of patients operated on by Lister who died fell dramatically. / Edward VII came down with appendicitis two days before his Coronation. The surgeons did not dare operate without consulting Britain’s leading surgical authority. The King later told Lister “I know that if it had not been for you and your work, I wouldn’t be sitting here today”. Due to Joseph’s guidance, for what reason, it is yet not apparent to me; however, I too would not be sitting here today, writing and painting without his intervention. I owe him a great deal and share this picture with you all. / I end this with on of his own quotes: / Sir Joseph Lister [1827-1912] / Father of antiseptic surgery, first to wire fractures, developed dissolving sutures / “I am a believer in the fundamental doctrines of Christianity” This painting I dedicate to Joseph Lister Music – Bach Painting using water colour, inks and graphite 7th January 2009

FRACTAL SAFETY NET / Best viewed large. / / / / FRACTAL SAFETY NET was FEATURED on / RED BUBBLE’S HOMEPAGE / on November 2, 2009. / / Fractal “Safety Net” was created out of Chaos with the Quaternion Julia Set, with use of Incendia software, based on five conditions. / / / With special effects rendered in skylight, I then proceeded to apply a little ambience, then I closed the program out and re-opened the image a second time in Photoshop. / / Lighting, luminosity, and colors were now added, along with embossing. After a few more adjustments with brightness and contrast, Fractal “Safety Net” was now complete. I do hope you like it!! / / /

Winter sunrise, in bits…if I had the facility and patience, I’d make this out of tiny pieces of paper. There’s detail that’s more visible in the larger view.

BEST VIEWED LARGER Gladesville Mental Hospital was a psychiatric hospital established in 1838 in the suburb of Gladesville, Sydney, Australia. [edit] Description and history / Prior to 1838, people with mental or emotional problems in the Sydney area were housed in a “lunatic asylum” in Liverpool, a suburb on the south-east fringes of Sydney, or at the Female Factory in Parramatta, twenty-four kilometres west of Sydney. In the 1830s, construction of a purpose-built asylum began on the banks of the Parramatta River, in the area now known as Gladesville. The original sandstone complex was designed by the Colonial Architect, Mortimer Lewis, between 1836 and 1838.[1] Patients were then transferred from Liverpool and the Female Factory.[2] The first supervisor was John Thomas Digby, who sought to improve the treatment of the mentally ill, as did his successor, Frederick Norton Manning. On a visit to Sydney in 1867, Manning was invited by Henry Parkes to become medical superintendent of the Tarban Creek Lunatic Asylum. Before accepting, Manning went overseas and studied methods of patient care and administration of asylums; on his return to Sydney he submitted a notable report. He was appointed to Tarban Creek on 15 October 1868 and immediately reported on the isolation of patients from their relations in accommodation best described as ‘prison-like and gloomy’, the inadequate facilities for their gainful employment and recreation and the monotonous diets deficient in both quantity and quality. In January 1869 the asylum’s name was changed to the Hospital for the Insane, Gladesville, wherein patients were to receive treatment rather than be confined in a ‘cemetery for diseased intellects’. By 1879 radical changes in patient care and accommodation had been made. Gladesville was extended and modernized and an asylum for imbeciles set up in Newcastle and a temporary asylum at Cooma. Manning minimized the use of restraint and provided for patient activities Equipment: Nikon D300, Sigma 10-20mm, Handheld Technique: HDR 5 Bracketted Images, Photomatix 3.2, Capture NX

Featured in Model Beginnings – 9/11/2009 / Featured in The Male Photographer – 02/12/2009 An image i assembled in photoshop. Here I took 5 photos of the model, and then cut the background, black and white, and then added strong contrast to really bring out the facial hair and send the light tones to white. I then cut strips out and put them together like so. I had the them of ‘Fractured Life’ in mind, to really illustrate how life is not perfect and there is always cracks within life.

This is a shot of a piano at my aunt’s house. I’ve been toying with the idea of using it for a piece and tonight, it all came together. I’ve lost count on how many times I have heard someone say “music isn’t what it used to be”. For the first half of my life, it was something parents and adults would say to us as the younger generation. Most of the time to rolling eyes, together with the generational term “whatever”. Now however, I catch myself thinking the same thing when I listen to the radio! Were our parents so wrong? Or do we all become stuck in our ways, sounds and ideals on life at a certain age, and as a result, are less accepting of the changes and fads the younger generation create? Who knows! But this piece reflects just that :) Featured in Live Love Dream / Featured in Mysteries Of The Common Original shot desaturated and added a texture layer from www.deviantart.com free use stock.
