Latent Image

A latent image on photographic film is an invisible image produced by the exposure of the film to light. When the film is developed, the area that was exposed darkens and forms a visible image. In the early days of photography, the nature of the invisible change in the silver halide crystals of the film's emulsion coating was unknown, so the image was said to be "latent" until the film was treated with photographic developer.

Notificação: registo e memos

Peço que me enviem a memória descritiva relativa à proposta de trabalho 1 em formato PDF e num ficheiro à parte. Nesse documento podem incluir imagens, caso sejam necessárias.

A versão digital requerida para fins de arquivo (que deverá ser entregue em formato PDF) poderá conter uma compilação de fotografias do trabalho final devidamente trabalhadas, evitando a mera exportação direta da aplicação utilizada para montar/paginar o artefacto. Pretende-se um registo do projeto e não necessariamente o trabalho em si.

Bom trabalho.

The Effect of Color

Color is one of the fundamental elements of our existence, and defines our world in such deep ways that its effects are nearly imperceptible. It intersects the worlds of art, psychology, culture, and more, creating meaning and influencing behavior every step of the way.

Gimp

GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distributed piece of software for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring. It works on many operating systems, in many languages.

Festival das Cores!

Festival das Cores

Todos os anos na Índia, entre Fevereiro e Março (um dia depois da lua cheia, no início de Março de cada ano), é comemorada a chegada da Primavera, com prece para boas colheitas e pela terra fértil.

A Religião Hindu comemora com uma festa linda, o Festival das Cores ou Holi. Neste dia as pessoas atiram diversos pós coloridos (gulal) e água umas nas outras. Crianças, adultos, idosos, pais, filhos e irmãos, todos interagem entre sim com muita alegria e respeito. Neste dia toda a divisão de castas é esquecido, as mãos são estendidas em consideração a paz.

Offbook Glitch Art + Kindle Glitched + ExtraFile Formats

KindleGlitched

---

Created by Kim Asendorf, ExtraFile is conceptional software with practical usage. It’s main intention is to offer an alternative to the static system of image file formats. It is also an attempt to address an alternative image file format, a piece of art, far away from the mainstream and commercial standards.
The freedom not to have to pay attention to the file size or the loading and saving times provides the option to implement artistically byte orders, odd quality behaviours and visual designed formats. ExtraFile is breaking the rules of commercial formats like JPG, PNG or TIFF. It is a pioneer art project in storing image data. The process and the resulting bytes, regardless of content, become the artwork itself.
ExtraFile.app is a native Mac OS X image converter application written in objC with the ability to open, preview and save the most common image file formats. It offers the possibility to use the seven build-in formats, 4Bit Components , Block Ascii , Block Indexed , Channel Compressed Image , Monochrome Collector File , Uniform Spectrum and the ExtraFile Format , to store image data.

Generative Photography

Generative Photography is an exploration within the fields of photography and generative art. Digital drawings are sequentially projected on a screen in a dark room and photographed using long exposure times. As in generative art, this photography technique uses an algorithm that is polluted with a certain randomness. The randomness comes from rendering imperfections and the asynchrony between the frame rate of the video signal and the refresh rate of the projector.
Glitches are unique, almost impossible to reproduce, and usually imperceptible to the naked eye. This technique gives shape to these digital glitches and captures their unpredictable beauty.

Elektrobiblioteka / Electrolibrary

Created by Waldek Węgrzyn at the Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice, Poland, “Electrolibrary” is a project that connects a custom made paper book to the computer, so it can be used as an interface. The book can be browsed as any other regular book but when connected to the computer via USB, by turning pages, you can navigate through the website, getting additional information, quotations, movies and animations appropriate to the currently open page.

Seeing Beyond the Human Eye

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrograph

A micrograph, or photomicrograph, is a photograph or digital image taken through a microscope or similar device to show a magnified image of an item. This is opposed to a macrographic image, which is at a scale that is visible to the naked eye.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrophotography

Astrophotography is a specialized type of photography that entails recording images of astronomical objects and large areas of the night sky. (...) Besides being able to record the details of extended objects such as the Moon, Sun, and planets, astrophotography has the ability to image objects invisible to the human eye such as dim stars, nebulae, and galaxies.
