A simple photo glitched and animated in PhotoDirector. I walk this path almost every day and the tunnel is different each time as the light shifts around and the foliage burgeons then drops. And it’s full of chattering birds. (c) … Continue reading Khushbu leaf tunnel
This is part of the NEO (near-earth object) series. In this case, I used a photo to imagine the early atmospheric and gravitational disturbances an NEO might produce. Disclaimer: my knowledge comes mostly from science fiction, much of which is … Continue reading Why we need space travel
Not sure if I’ll succeed but I’m aiming to have everything I show at the forthcoming Steyning Arts art trail fully Artivive-enabled. That means making videos for each of the pieces of work – pertinent ones that add something to the original – setting the videos up alongside their target image on the Artivive bridge, then making sure they scan via the app. After that, I can make cards or posters – table mats if I fancy it – and the app will bring up the video. Well, as long as there aren’t blobs of tomato ketchup in the way! … Continue reading On a mission!
Artivive is a way of linking an image to a video without the need for QR codes on the work you’re scanning. Take a painting, for instance; you might want to add an animation or some clips of it being … Continue reading Artivive
Asked to make a detailed painting of weeds on a mid-tone base, obviously I went for black cartridge, big brushes, and an animation. If there are any resonances, they’re Dutch vanitas (faint), and Kim Baker’s updated version of same (a little louder). Continue reading Weeds – painting animated in Pixaloop/MotionLeap

I know, probably illegal! These came about as part of my degree course but absolutely lent themselves to a bit of digital jiggery pokery via Pixaloop for iPhone/pad. The art work they came from is on my dedicated UPM module blog here, here, and here. Continue reading Tinkering with tondos
Made in Flamepainter for iPad, animated in Pixaloop, sound track added in Filmora10. Having a post-portrait exhibition techy regressive moment. Continue reading Never perch on an event horizon
The fourth iteration of this marvellous digital app, the wild-child of the Escapemotions stable, has just arrived. Controlling it is harder than herding cats which at least go to sleep for several hours a day and generally pitch up for food, whereas this piece of kit with its multiple brushes, myriad within-brush settings, and huge palette, has the temperament of a bucking bronco. But, after chasing round the canvas for an hour or so, I’ve made a galaxy. Eat your heart out Professor Brian! Continue reading Flamepainter4
Several years ago there was an app called Blippr which let you both make and read AR images embedded by tagged code into a flat surface. Before it went under (or was bought and drowned maybe by a competitor), I made a couple for work, and also scanned the front of a display box of flea treatment at the vet’s to reveal a website (imaginative!), to the amazement of the receptionist. Layar was another and both have gone silent. Now there are some new ones on the scene and I’ve been trying them out. This is Thyng which shows promise but … Continue reading Augmented reality and art
