Sixty degrees of separation
February 3rd 2010

Posted under alteration & photography

Oh boy! One month without posts! I have failed the blogospheres. As usual, I was busy, yadda yadda, but I should have some more time soon to work on my site. I restarted my redesign, but I also promised somebody I would make them a website as well. So, the gist of it is that I may or may not be on as often for the next little while. Hopefully, everything will stabilize soon and I will be able to keep up with a more regular schedule.

In other news, last week, Jiahui and I decided to try out a little project. She told me about using camera film twice to produce a double exposure. The goal would have been for us to take pictures, then send the roll of film to each other to use once more. The idea is that you have no idea what the other person took, so you might get some surprises with the output. Since she lives in Singapore, and I live in Montreal, we decided to try this experiment using our digital cameras and swap pictures over the Internet. We each took 10 pictures and marked 2 sets from 1-5. We sent the first set to each other, and then merged them with our other 5 pictures. We couldn’t change the order of the pictures and we used Photoshop to blend them together. We both produced at least a couple of good pictures. I will share my 5 pictures below, and you can see Jiahui’s pictures on her site here. Overall, it was a fun experiment and I hope to do it again in the near future.

If you don’t understand the title of this post, it was -30 degrees (celsius) here and +30 in Singapore, creating 60 degrees of difference. ;)
