And the color of the universe is...

Nasa astronomers recently computationally averaged the light emitted by a sample of some 200,000 gallaxies. The result was...beige.

We don't get too much blue sky here in Eugene so we paint it on our walls.

Celine Clanet at Blue Sky

Just this weekend I saw a great show by the french photographer Celine Clanet at the Blue Sky Gallery in Portland. My friend and artist Nick Robles and I even got to see her speak about her work. We just happened to wandered into the gallery only a half hour before she was to give her talk. If you are in the area it is definitely worth checking out.

Revolution is upon us

My friend and writer Brian Loo recently posted this on his facebook page:

"A fundamental and comprehensive revolution in how we perceive nature and our relationship to it is long overdue."

I was excited to know that something which held such importance for me was also important to others.

In these images I have sought out landscapes that contain evidence of human interactions and then have removed them in photoshop.

Not as a statement of a return to nature, but as a way to heighten the viewers awareness as tothe ways in which we interact with the landscape.
