News from the Secret Laboratory

Journal Entry: Fri Jul 20, 2007, 9:57 AM
It’s been a busy Spring and Summer so far; but just about all the work I’ve been doing has been on my web sites, so there hasn’t been much to upload here. Last year I spent about nine months on a very large project – so large that even those months barely scratched the surface of it – and this year I’ve been trying to undo some of the resulting neglect of my commercial ventures. Since although I may be a shiftless layabout, I’m not a wealthy shiftless layabout.

Late last week I got distracted from what I ought to have been doing by a program that generates height maps, for realistic 3D terrain, and I spent a few days mucking about with it. Making terrain is a really interesting problem and this is one more tool in my tool box for solving that. I sort of justified the time I spent with that software by writing it up in my Webomator blog.



Those terrain experiments have me thinking about a couple of new print-resolution images; not sure what will come of that yet, but I am thinking. I solved a problem that was giving me fits in my 3D software and that makes it a lot more pleasant to goof around with it again. So, like I said, things are sort of germinating, but I’m not sure yet where they’ll go.

I see that I’m creeping up toward 50,000 page views here. I feel like we should have a party or something when I hit it. Fireworks?

One of the things I’d like to add to the Web-O-Blog is an article or a whole section that’s all about print-on-demand services, specifically for artists. I’ve got a feeling that might be a resource that you folks might like. But of course it’s a relatively big thing to put together, so it’s not there yet.

I guess I’ve got a fair number of things germinating, now that I think about it. And I haven’t even mentioned my “lemon trees in Ohio” experiment, have I?

First, let me say thank you for the fine work. I love the art deco-ish future you've created, and can't wait to see more. Ah, the future was so cool, once upon a time....

Hello, how are ya?
I'm sending out a note to everyone today, I need votes here at the Saatchi Gallery Showdown where I've entered a painting. I'd like to see it end up in their London Gallery.
If you have time, voting is easy and it would mean the world to me.

Have an excellent day,
~Jay

BTW, the prizes are fairly generous so you might consider entering your own art in the next round as well.
