the water photographer's book on amazon

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In The Hidden Messages in Water, Masaru Emoto described how water can absorb, hold, and even retransmit human emotions, and underlined his theory using high-speed photos of frozen water crystals that showed changes when specific, concentrated thoughts were directed toward the water. Extending from this idea, The Secret Life of Water focuses on how prayer can affect water — and more — in a curative way. The book's central goal is to promote peace within the reader and around the world through the use of prayer. Covering the various aspects of hado, or life energy, it focuses in-depth on hado's "flow" aspect, and on the consequences when human desire, pride, and ideology interfere with "flow." According to the author, water can act as a mirror reflecting the human heart — and the current water situation is serious. He argues that prayer is the first step toward healing, and documents the power of prayer when people gather together, outlining several experiments in which water has revealed visually how prayers can change the world.

a nice photo blog

http://blog.jinkyart.com.au/

I like the next image not the one for today. It's a tripdych of flowers.

it grows

it's that processing program development site. i have to learn this. i love how alive it is.

http://www.iamas.ac.jp/~madman03/haohao/

it's empty and you click to make it. the more clicks the more stuff that appears. but then it just starts growing and interacting. definitely hit the shift key. i didn't like the circles but loved the paint strokes.

I'm worried though that you won't be able to see it because it doesn't work on the mac firefox browser. It works great on Safari though.

lines and all unfinished

http://www.replessabandon.com/#

Look at the work of Lindsay. I really like her use of lines so expressively. And all the looseness of the background paint.

circles and patterns

http://www.344design.com

I like the interactivity on this web page. The spinning circles which go to the top when done. And the graphic design featured on the commitioned work section and the odd illustrations under the dreams section.

http://www.zelazela.com/zelazela.html

This woman's illustration style is an odd contrast of simplicity and wild indulgence of pattern. Interesting.

This guy Robert Clark is usually shooting for high profile stuff. But instead he's shooting with a camera phone. Interesting.

the earth from above

This is interesting. I didn't know that Emmet Gowin had done aerial work.

http://www.pbs.org/now/science/earth.html

I found the link on Arts Journal as part of a discussion about Google Maps aerial feature. Which is just stunning.

maps.google.com then look for the word Satellite in the top right corner.

I really like this guy. He is so visual.

this is a visual representation of money spent: this vs. that

I have no idea what the hell this is but I enjoy it:

I have to design a timeline for our 40th anniversary and this guy has me very inspired. If only I was a flash diva. Sigh.

playful

Chris Martin

A painter with a lightness of spirit.

Marilla Palmer

A sculptor who hangs not so well as you Linda. But I thought you might find the press release interesting. Her spiel.

damn him

Oh, I shouldn't be jealous. But here's number two from Grad School. On the map. Sigh.

http://www.kevincooley.net

It's never the one's you think are going to make it. Nice client list. Sigh. He was tired of Wall St. finacials stuff and decided to be an "artist."

Hadly Hooper. Nice illustration style.

This exhibit is based on use of software. I lot of it is interesting visual experimentation but I liked Timescape best.
