I was working on some really low poly heads with hair to demonstrate how few polygons can still confer an idea of the subject. It's kind of like line drawing with few lines.







Here I made the hair bigger than the head, so that it looks like a hood.

After the laundry last night (e:southernyankee) and I went out to La Luna (MAP TO: 52%20W%20CHIPPEWA%20ST). I never realized that they had opened the Bachus Patio for La Luna. There were at least 500 people there. I would say it was a good crowd, but the music was way to old for me and there was little or no dancing, except on the 10 ft by 10 ft dancefloor.

They had a movie screen outside where they play the Bacchus Movies. They were projecting 3D models and mini films onto it. I was quite interested in watching but could help feel it was just too many specular highlights in most of them(e.g. the gold and silver dancing robot parrots.)

Once I got there I saw the rest of the peeps. (e:lilho) , (e:jill) , (e:chriddy) , (e:jessbob) , (e:flacidness) , (e:chamille) , (e:mike) , (e:diana) , (e:terry) and about a million other people I knew. I decided I desperately needed some excerise and dancing to 80s music wasn't going to cut it. AT that point, (e:lilho) and I decided to walk home. It took about an hour but was well worth it. Now my legs are really tired.

[size=m]Tree Cut to Death on Elmwood[/size]
I spent the morning listening to them rip a giant tree down acorss the street. The gives me a sick feeling. Its been chainsaws and grinders for two hours now. I decided to record them.

This is the mini saw cutting the branches - wait till you hear the mega saw cutting the giant trunk.

::DOWNLOAD SOUND::

I think I am going to make a lot more recordings of elmwood. Eventually I can mix it all together ina "sounds of elmwood" CD. Who knows how much time I'll really have but it seems to have a lot of potential.

Well after recording for 1 hour straight I got the best noises and that ripped into the trunk. CRacking, falling, man and machine vs nature. It was insane. Then the sound recording progra,m crashed and I lost it all. So now all you can here is the mini grinder saw.

Well, as the summer winds down, I find myself overwhelmed with little projects I have created for myself. There is only one week left and I have about 1000 things to do for the site, 3D modeling, planning syllabi, etc.

This is the democracy- building, miracle piss that America promised Iraq before the war. It helps the democracy plant grow out of the dry desert ground.

Maybe this is a common democracy-building technique. It is hard to know without having had digital cameras and an internet back in 1776. Perhaps, if we had the internet back then, we would have a picture of George Washington pissing on King George's portrait.
