I've seen things like this before, but never quite to this extent. <br /><br />It's a pure and beautiful form of entertainment that involves one man and I would imagine a lot of practice. Take the time to watch and appreciate.<br /><br /><div><object width="425" height="332"><param name="movie" value="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/26hCXVYE4sh2a2Zkc"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/26hCXVYE4sh2a2Zkc" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="334" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object><br /><b><a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xf9oo_jerome-murat">jerome murat</a></b><br /><i>Uploaded by <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/segalier">segalier</a></i></div><br /><br />Don't let the word Mime fool you....while beginning mimes who escape from boxes are annoying, this man is a master and has turned this party trick into an art that is close to dance.<br /><br />I'm impressed<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27392795-5827388447549353519?l=artisanslantern.blogspot.com'/></div>- D -http://www.blogger.com/profile/15330914158499128993noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27392795.post-66956104973609225172006-12-12T21:19:00.000-08:002006-12-12T21:23:42.637-08:00I am constantly on the look out for inspiring photographs.

Not only is the music (which wasn't on the original video) well done but the touch screen capability is something out of "Minority Report".<br /><br /><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/89sz8ExZndc"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/89sz8ExZndc" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object><br /><br />Check it out and if you're interested in what it is and how it works check out the website developed by Jeff Han on <a href="http://mrl.nyu.edu/~jhan/ftirtouch/">Multi-touch Interaction Research</a>.

Then I stumbled across this today...HDR, High Dynamic Range photography. How cool is this!? The images are deep and colorful, and processing is a breeze. There are some amazing HDR photographs on flickr that I suggest you check out.<br /></p><p style="text-align: left;" class="flickr-yourcomment"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/elyuyu/138735234/" title="photo sharing"><img style="width: 359px; height: 240px;" src="http://static.flickr.com/53/138735234_1d4b01ec6b.jpg" class="flickr-photo" alt="" /></a><br /><span class="flickr-caption"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/elyuyu/138735234/">Hofbräuhaus 0003 HDR</a>, originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/elyuyu/">elyuyu</a>.</span></p><p style="text-align: left;" class="flickr-yourcomment"><br />But after you look...<br /><br />In order to get the full greatness of HDR, I suggest you check out this website: <a href="http://www.cybergrain.com/tech/hdr/">http://www.cybergrain.com/tech/hdr/</a><br />It's got a great explanation of how HDR works.<br /><br />Just thought you should see this!<br /><br />- D -</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27392795-114653380597250048?l=artisanslantern.blogspot.com'/></div>- D -http://www.blogger.com/profile/15330914158499128993noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27392795.post-1146522486259627202006-05-01T15:25:00.000-07:002006-05-01T16:16:58.326-07:00So I got a blog...<br /><br />I just felt left out...<br /><br />And though I could've searched and searched, I may never have found a blog that would have all the things I'm interested in on it.<br /><br />So here's my blog called The Artisan's Lantern. I'm an artist I think; but mostly I marvel at the beauty, creativity and technology that other artists create and use. I'd like this to be a place for me to send all of those things into the universe, or at least into the WWW.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.hirshhorn.si.edu/sugimoto/photography.htm"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2471/2884/320/207.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">A whole movie in one frame ~<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"> Hiroshi Sugimoto</span> - <span style="font-style: italic;">Cabot Street Cinema, Massachusetts</span> - 1948<br />Gelatin Silver print on a technical view camera that shoots 8 x 10 negatives </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27392795-114652248625962720?l=artisanslantern.blogspot.com'/></div>- D -http://www.blogger.com/profile/15330914158499128993noreply@blogger.com1
