The Top-Hat Confederacy

I just learned how to do panoramic photomerge in photoshop.  It came in handy for this shot of the Top-Hat Confederacy.  Check out their video.

Tips and tricks for photomerge:

The Joy of Tex

Math formulas has a lot of text and symbols.  Michael Spivak wrote about it.

Fibonaccis

(above)  Fibonaccis's Dream by  Martina Schettina does some work with math in her paintings.

(Below) 'Golden Pentagram'

A classmate from art119, Jesse Pollard did a flash animation about Fibonaccis squares http://daikons.com/textjesse.swf

Take Five

I did some animation for my art119 class.  The idea was to play with the star shape because it has five points.  I was also timing the animation so that the frames would end or start at 5 sequence such as 5 10 20 100 etc.
Having done the shape, I researched to find that the star contains the Golden ratio in the triangle pieces.  I can see something special it this shape.  The star contains a pentagram at the center and also if the points of the stars are connected with a line then a pentagram is at the outside of the star.  The outside pentagram is twice as bigger then the inner pentagram and inverse.

The star shape is also a fractal.

broken USB flash drive

Man! I'm so mad.  The USB flash drive broken down on me.  I was not able to retrieve the flash animation assign for Art119.  Luckily, I saved the work before at my class computer.  However, I lost some of the new work done over the weekend.  I've learn my lesson.  Apparently, this is a common occurrence.  The higher the gig capacity, the more chance it's going to malfunction.  I had a 64mb flash drive that was in my pants pocket which went through the wash cycle and the dry cycle.  To my amazement, I was able to retrieve my files.  I guess I need to save it first to the desktop and then back it up on an other drive.

I did a search for recovery and some other forums.  Tom's Hardware Forum recommends this website:  http://www.FlashDrivePros.com/
