Ryan's "Chain"

By a lucky coincidence, Jenny started making chain this weekend.

Craig's Chain

Do two links constitute a chain? I was quite fascinated by the erosion on the concrete. This one's a couple of years old, but I wanted to try this out before I posted something new for New.

Q's chain



i return!

however, it appears cory and i think very similarly.

shameless self-promotion: i finally got around to building a portfolio website like i've said i'd do for the past six or eight years. www.quenluen.com.

Cory's Chain


I spent all week trying to think of where I would find a chain, and then I remembered where I keep my chains: in the garage, attached to my bike.

Welcome, Craig!

Also, "Chain" is due Sunday night. Shoot something "New" for next Sunday.

Somebody needs to fill up the topic bucket. I can see the bottom.

Ryan's "Water"

This week's story is similar to last week's - I had a wonderful shot lined up involving Niagara Falls, a helicopter, spotlights to create a rainbow at night, etc. Unfortunately I ended up studying for a Calc exam instead. Oh well. Ducky likes his water.


/rl - stretching the truth a bit.

Cory's Water


I tried the typical "water drop" picture, but failed miserably. So here's some water for drinking.

"Water" due sooner rather than later.

"Chain" will be due later rather than sooner.

Ryan's "Candlelight"

So, say that one plans a photo for most of a week. A photo that involves a friend's dungeon-like storm cellar and some candles. One prepares for the photo - makes arrangements to use the dungeon-like cellar, purchases enough candles to keep the little old ladies dropping nickels in the lockbox at St. Bridget's for weeks, creates an idea in one's mind how it will be lit. Then one realizes that he's not very good at Calculus, and should spend that time and energy integrating, derivating, and performing other obscenities upon numbers and trigonometric functions. What does one do? One improvises at 11:00 at night, risking burning down one's bookshelf:

Anybody want some of those little tea candles? They were $0.02 a piece in lots of 50. I spent $2.14 with tax. I have a few to spare...

Cory's Candlelight


Nothing special, just a candle that is lit. Instant candlelight!

"Candlelight" is due tonight!

The spinning wheel-o-topics has stopped on "Water" for next week.

Q's technology

Sunday, March 8, 2009

Ryan's "Technology"

Given a supply of iron and a hammer, you can make a chisel. With a hammer and chisel, you can make a file. With a hammer, chisel, and file, you can make the rest of the world.

Cory's Technology

The biggest technology I have access to right now: a 40-rack Blue Gene/P system - 40,960 nodes, 163,840 processors, 450 teraflops. Also hidden off the frame to the right is 8 petabytes of disk space and a mess of 38 miles of network cabling.

Science!

"Technology" due within 6 hours

We have about 174 hours to shoot "Candlelight."

Ryan's "Pants"

Lighting the inside of a dryer is quite a pain....

Cory's Pants


It turns out I'm not very creative when it comes to pants...

Next week

Technology.

Pants due today!
