Raising the Wow Factor

From Computer Worlds’s The top 25 overlooked and underrated features in Leopard: “Leopard harnesses the Core Animation libraries code that developers can use to imbue applications with all manner of animated elements to offer [a] stunning new screensaver options [that works] with iPhoto albums or folders of photos that you select….[It] creates a photo mosaic image — the type we’ve all seen in poster shops where one iconic picture, such as a movie poster for the Star Wars trilogy, looks like a solid image from a distance, but when you get close you see it’s really made of hundred and hundreds of still shots from the movies. It does this constantly, creating a new image of a photo in the album, using tiny versions of the other photos in the same album. Truly, this stunning effect is one that needs to be witnessed to be fully appreciated.” [Editor's note: I just witnessed this for the first time, and my jaw dropped. If you're running Leopard, make sure you check it out.]

    I thought you might be interested in a very unique art form i have been working on for over ten years,the pictures are made up from thousands of hand drawn pictures that are placed in a certain way that those pictures make up hundreds of other pictures.You could call it ‘fluid imagination’!These pictures can be used as an educational tool, although they do make the most amazing mind games.
