I felt the sudden urge to snap a few pictures tonight. Also being in my pyjamas, I thought I'd limit the pictures to my own apartment. So this is my place.
This is my place on drugs.*
This is my place on better drugs.*
All three pictures came from the same camera in the same position and from the same source. The only difference is the presence (or absence) of a few minute corrections in luminosity, white point, and gamma. If a few fractions of a percent can make such a huge difference in our perception of reality in something as simple as a photograph, what does that say about the trillions of connections and chemical bridges in our brains?
Reality is malleable! Don't accept what you see, hear, or feel. You could be a victim of your own senses.
Next time you're mad, count to ten. Next time you're depressed, call up a friend who makes you laugh. Then you'll start making your own reality.

I'm waiting for my life to begin. And your next post ;) hehe. Your entries are fun to read =) When do you come back from Seattle? I just finished my summer job in Toronto and I'm all moved back home in Ottawa. It's weird.
Unfortunately, I give away my best pieces of art =p But just for you, I'll try to dig around for something old that I'm still mildly proud of to show =)
Digital? Ummm...no...? heh, perhaps I don't understand your question properly, but I like more hands-on art/crafts =)
