Tristan Risk in 3D as ASCII art. <-- Now in colour!

As before no animated GIFs were harmed in the making of this image, it's all plain text animated with CSS and JavaScript (that can't show on LJ directly). Once again, you'll have to follow the link to see this exercise in even more astounding uselessness than last time.

Rendering this should pretty much max out your CPU - this is about as far as I can go with this in this direction.

This is so completely pointless I'm at a loss to explain what possessed me to do it, nonetheless, I bring you:

It works best if you sit back and squint a little.

My first all original "vintage" stereographic animation. The photograph was made during the shoot for Art of Adornment last July. I made several other stereoscopic images during that shoot which I have only just developed today (film!). So, more to come. BTW, the "scratch" on one of the frames was not photoshopped in - it's a cat hair that introduced itself while scanning the negatives, courtesy tharsis. It adds to the vintage feel, so I left it.

Here is the Ziegfeld Follies photo site I was telling you about.

Last Saturday littlemissrisk of LittleMissRisk.com, Sweet Soul Burlesque, and the Voodoo Dollz was over to model some of valerian's Art of Adornment jewelry and accessories. I have well over a hundred quality photos to go through and will start up a project file and gallery while I am working on the photos. Some of these will be added to the Red Chair Project, plus there will be some 3D animations as well, just for fun. In the mean time here's a behind-the-scenes shot and a couple of Polaroids for the sake of funky retro sassiliciousness.








I am seriously tempted to play hookey from the day job later this week to get some work done.

The Sin City anniversary party is coming up this weekend so it would be nice to get through these pictures before I have another pile to go through. I'm not really interested in being tethered to my photo booth when there will be stage acts (including littlemissrisk), especially with Richard's on Richards being such a great place to shoot the stage because of the balcony - that's where I made the image of Collide that was used in Keyboard Magazine last June - I think I'll bring the big camera with my long lens and concentrate on the stage. As much as I like how many of the photo-booth photos have been coming out, it will be a good thing to change things up a bit. I still have to talk to cheekydevil about this. I don't like to assume I'm guest-listed when I don't really have a defined rôle at the event.

I've already got the 31^st booked off so I can get out on Sunday and "celebrate" (i.e. get drunk enough to pretend I'm not ancient) my birthday at Skank. That will definitely be a night for the waterproof+shockproof=bar-proof wee camera so I can enjoy some unfettered stupidity without worrying about tending to a few grand worth of gear.
