“I don’t care that it’s -26 outside, I want to build stuff now!”
This is what I’m working on these days.
Brad and I have a few of these on the go.
Further updates will be posted in the near future.
Take A Picture (via Hack A Day)
[Brad Blucher and Kyle Clements] … have collaborated to create a series of works titled, “Take a Picture“. Each picture they have built is constructed to look like an empty canvas when viewed with the naked eye. If you were to take a picture of the canvas with your cell phone or digital camera however, a whole new world would open up in front of your eyes. Their artwork is constructed using infrared LEDs, which cannot be seen with the naked eye, but are visible to nearly any CMOS or CCD sensor on the market. The images range from simple smiley faces and objects to abstract geometric shapes.

I’m posting someone else’s post about me.
It might seem like ego, but for me, it’s just excitement. Weee!
Just a few days longer…
The worst part of group projects is putting a lot of work into something that you are very proud of, having it all ready to go, but having to wait another few days because a certain release date was decided upon during the last meeting, and you can’t change things without your partner’s consent.
I don’t want to paint Brad as the bad guy here, it was a mutual decision to hold off for a while, but it’s ready right now! Damn temptation,!
hmm…
You know what, we never decided on a ‘no ambiguous hints and breadcrumbs’ policy…
I can give a few hints, right? that can’t hurt…
Whatever it is, it’s live right now. It’s somewhere on the internet, but there are currently no inlinks to it, so good luck finding it. Happy hunting!
This show will be the first showing of “Take a Picture” since Nuit Blanche, so if you have a digital camera, please bring one.
I need to learn better search engine optimization.
I spent the last 10 minutes googling myself to see how visible my Scotiabank Nuit Blanche project, ‘Take a Picture” is on the search engines.
The results were not good.
“Take a Picture” returned with just advice on photography, and that hit song by Filter. exactly what I had expected.
“Take a Picture kyle” and “Take a picture Toronto” didn’t do any better, with the same generic photography advice I got from the first search, but this time, it was limited to either people named Kyle, or people in Toronto.
“Take a Picture toronto nuit blanche” gave me advice on taking pictures for nuit blanche. closer, but still no trace of me on the first page.
“Take a picture kyle toronto nuit blanche 2010” now i thought I had it. but no! now all that came up was photography advice for nuit blanche 2010 from people named kyle.
*sigh*
note to self: in the future, come up with less generic titles for project names. Brad should have thought of this. He is the word guy.
well, in case you are looking, here is a link to the ungooglable page:
A quick, informal introduction to the Take a Picture project. in this video, I show off the prototype image, titled “smile”
9 hours sleep spread over 3 days does not make for a very coherent or eloquent Kyle.
This video shows some of the behind the scenes construction stages of the Take a Picture project.
