this work is in not in ‘absolute’ order of preference.
though of course, from the beginning, i thought about those who have a deep connection for me, so there is a modicum of ‘hierarchy’.
however, i suddenly remembered people who are dear to me toward the end of the process!! you cannot read too much into your ‘placing’ in the mosaics, and that is as it should be.
if you are not in the mix, i can only apologise. it was quite a lengthy process 😮
i will certainly have forgotten people [i can think of several now] who should have been a part of this process, but a year only contains a finite number of weeks.
you are not forgotten.
the best to all my contacts.
should you be interested in the fundamental reasons for many of my contacts being held in high esteem and great regard, please feel free to cast an eye over my new year video. it explains much with regard to how i view my contacts:

On May 11, 2012, we officially opened the newly rebuilt and improved Far Rockaway-Mott Av terminal on the A line. The sparkling, steel and glass, state-of-the art transit facility includes "Respite," a new glass panel artwork by Jason Rohlf made in jewel-toned colors from original paintings. The artwork dramatically diffuses the light inside to create a richly saturated interior space. The work can be seen throughout the station as well as from outside, adding visual impact to the existing architecture. Photo: Metropolitan Transportation Authority / Rob Wilson.

"In Klankenbos (Sound Forest) contemporary artworks produce sounds. Not only are your ears stimulated, you’d better keep your eyes open as well, for the sound installations are fascinating visual artworks which deserve to be looked at. Thus Klankenbos is a special auditory and artistic open air experience, inviting you along a promenade walk at t
he Provincial Domain Dommelhof in Neerpelt. With its ten stationary and three mobile sound installations Klankenbos is quite unique in Europe."

"Awakening Woods
In the context of Manifesta 9 – Parallel Events, Musica is hosting a summer exhibition with three new acquisitions for the permanent Klankenbos collection and two temporary media installations."

The Scalecourse at the Supercrawl 2010, Germany

Dec
Maggus (Hilux) and I (yellow Landy) drive some spots of the scalecourse, that were part of the scalerun two days ago with over 30 scale-rigs at the same time. Enjoy. BTW: The steering of my Exo is a little weak on the left side 🙁
Here are 2 or 3 things you can do once you learn to set your aperture, shutter speed, and ISO on your camera. Also, learn to read your light meter. This is not hard…..you just need to do it! Once you learn to adjust these settings, you will become a better photographer.

TodaysArt 2008 – Vloei / Flow I
Image by Haags Uitburo
Gifts Bram Vreven calls them, the beautiful visual effects caused by the movemaent of water over glass or plastic. Vreven uses physical phenomena based on adhesion and cohesion in purely artistic ways. Rejecting scientific pretence, he is only concerned with the beauty of the images.
Every year, for one weekend, the TodaysArt Festival brings a whole range of innovative and groundbreaking acts to the Netherlands. For two days, the city centre of The Hague functions as one big festival terrain, with performances both in the public domain and on several indoor stages. Interactive installations, projections and acts use the city centre as a stage and transform The Hague into an inspiring stronghold of audiovisual experiences.
