the ink was simulated in 3dsmax with the Krakatoa & Fume Fx plugins... They did tests with real and water to get a feel for how it should look, but again I think that all of the ink was simulated.

Un rio de ondas luminosas
Un rio de formas que cambian al ritmo del sonido
texturas de colores y aromas y cosas naturales,
cambian y evolucionan en sistemas orgánicos,
partículas dinámicas que se arremolinan
y disuelven en otra forma que las contiene,
fuerzas que arrastran el pensamiento,
el arquetipo de las fuerzas y su infinita red de ondas y estados

Colorful Vision in "Eye Candy" for Sony
Superfad Directs Colorful Vision in "Eye Candy" for Sony BRAVIA HDTV from Hype Communications on Vimeo.
Superfad’s new in-store campaign for Sony is a startlingly beautiful and surreal homage to Sony’s global brand message of “make.believe” and a tribute to the pleasure of “Eye Candy”. Unfolding in three parts, “Birth of Color,” “Explosion of Color,” and “Release of Color,” the project was directed and produced by Superfad and will be seen in stores and trade shows throughout the world.
The concept was inspired by the idea that from one’s imagination anything is possible. Drawing from the theatrical world of fashion photography, Superfad chose moments of visual drama and magic, with spherical objects representing the dot in “make.believe” as a connecting through-line.
Superfad Director/Executive Creative Director Will Hyde captured a live action, slow motion narrative with imagery that would showcase the picture value of Sony BRAVIA high definition televisions including color fidelity and detail. The project’s effects and animation, completed in just under three weeks, was creative directed by Carlos Stevens.
The project keenly represents Superfad’s methodology; one that eschews a singular signature style in favor of applying project-specific creative approaches to reveal the unexpected. With Sony’s “Eye Candy,” the blending of live action and animation comes together in a seamless marriage of visual intensity and wonder.

Nokta (Dot) is an abstract film project which is an improvisation of organic pieces while considering themes like power, chance and luck.
I also wanted a perspective that can be subjectified by
viewers.
'I see some correspondence between the foundation of universal harmony on elliptical orbit and the predilection for the elliptic forms in Baroque architecture. In both cases harmony is still defined as unity within multiplicity, but it ceased to be static, namely, harmony expressed in one ideal geometrical form, and became so to speak dynamic. What was previously regarded as the deviation from the ideal form, was comprehended for the first time as an integral part of the form, or form of forms, which are capable of endless transitions one into another. ' [Amos Funkenstein, The Dialectical Preparation of Scientific Revolutions. On the Role of Hypothetical Reasoning in the Emergence of Copernican Astronomy and Galilean Mechanics.]
Chapter 17. Ulysses by James Joyce
What spectacle confronted them when they, first the host, then the guest, emerged silently, doubly dark, from obscurity by a passage from the rere of the house into the penumbra of the garden?
The heaventree of stars hung with humid nightblue fruit.
With what meditations did Bloom accompany his demonstration to his companion of various constellations?
Meditations of evolution increasingly vaster: of the moon invisible in incipent lunation, approaching perigee: of the infinite lattiginous scintillating uncondensed milky way, discernible by daylight by an observer placed at the lower end of a cylindrical vertical shaft 5000 ft deep sunk from the surface towards the centre of the earth: of Sirius (alpha in Canis Major) 10 lightyears (57,000,000,000,000 miles) distant and in volume 900 times the dimension of our planet: of Arcturus: of the precession of equinoxes: of Orion with belt and sextuple sun theta and nebula in which 100 of our solar systems could be contained: of moribund and of nascent new stars such as Nova in 1901: of our system plunging towards the constellation of Hercules: of the parallax or parallactic drift of socalled fixed stars, in reality evermoving from immeasurably remote eons to infinitely remote futures in comparison with which the years, threescore and ten, of allotted human life formed a parenthesis of infinitesimal brevity.
Were there obverse meditations of involution increasingly less vast?
Of the eons of geological periods recorded in the stratifications of the earth: of the myriad minute entomological organic existences concealed in cavities of the earth, beneath removable stones, in hives and mounds, of microbes, germs, bacteria, bacilli, spermatozoa: of the incalculable trillions of billions of millions of imperceptible molecules contained by cohesion of molecular affinity in a single pinhead: of the universe of human serum constellated with red and white bodies, themselves universes of void space constellated with other bodies, each, in continuity, its universe of divisible component bodies of which each was again divisible in divisions of redivisible component bodies, dividends and divisors ever diminishing without actual division till, if the progress were carried far enough, nought nowhere was never reached.
Why did he not elaborate these calculations to a more precise result?
Because some years previously in 1886 when occupied with the problem of the quadrature of the circle he had learned of the existence of a number computed to a relative degree of accuracy to be of such magnitude and of so many places, e.g., the 9th power of the 9th power of 9, that, the result having been obtained, 33 closely printed volumes of 1000 pages each of innumerable quires and reams of India paper would have to be requisitioned in order to contain the complete tale of its printed integers of units, tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions, billions, the nucleus of the nebula of every digit of every series containing succinctly the potentiality of being raised to the utmost kinetic elaboration of any power of any of its powers.
Did he find the problem of the inhabitability of the planets and their satellites by a race, given in species, and of the possible social and moral redemption of said race by a redeemer, easier of solution?
Of a different order of difficulty. Conscious that the human organism, normally capable of sustaining an atmospheric pressure of 19 tons, when elevated to a considerable altitude in the terrestrial atmosphere suffered with arithmetical progression of intensity, according as the line of demarcation between troposphere and stratosphere was approximated, from nasal hemorrhage, impeded respiration and vertigo, when proposing this problem for solution he had conjectured as a working hypothesis which could not be proved impossible that a more adaptable and differently anatomically constructed race of beings might subsist otherwise under Martian, Mercurial, Veneral, Jovian, Saturnian, Neptunian or Uranian sufficient and equivalent conditions, though an apogean humanity of beings created in varying forms with finite differences resulting similar to the whole and to one another would probably there as here remain inalterably and inalienably attached to vanities, to vanities of vanities and all that is vanity.
And the problem of possible redemption?
The minor was proved by the major.
Which various features of the constellations were in turn considered?
The various colours significant of various degrees of vitality (white, yellow, crimson, vermilion, cinnabar): their degrees of brilliancy: their magnitudes revealed up to and including the 7th: their positions: the waggoner's star: Walsingham way: the chariot of David: the annular cinctures of Saturn: the condensation of spiral nebulae into suns: the interdependent gyrations of double suns: the independent synchronous discoveries of Galileo, Simon Marius, Piazzi, Le Verrier, Herschel, Galle: the systematisations attempted by Bode and Kepler of cubes of distances and squares of times of revolution: the almost infinite compressibility of hirsute comets and their vast elliptical egressive and reentrant orbits from perihelion to aphelion: the sidereal origin of meteoric stones: the Libyan floods on Mars about the period of the birth of the younger astroscopist: the annual recurrence of meteoric showers about the period of the feast of S. Lawrence (martyr, 10 August): the monthly recurrence known as the new moon with the old moon in her arms: the posited influence of celestial on human bodies: the appearance of a star (1st magnitude) of exceeding brilliancy dominating by night and day (a new luminous sun generated by the collision and amalgamation in incandescence of two nonluminous exsuns) about the period of the birth of William Shakespeare over delta in the recumbent neversetting constellation of Cassiopeia and of a star (2nd magnitude) of similar origin but lesser brilliancy which had appeared in and disappeared from the constellation of the Corona Septentrionalis about the period of the birth of Leopold Bloom and of other stars of (presumably) similar origin which had (effectively or presumably) appeared in and disappeared from the constellation of Andromeda about the period of the birth of Stephen Dedalus, and in and from the constellation of Auriga some years after the birth and death of Rudolph Bloom, junior, and in and from other constellations some years before or after the birth or death of other persons: the attendant phenomena of eclipses, solar and lunar, from immersion to emersion, abatement of wind, transit of shadow, taciturnity of winged creatures, emergence of nocturnal or crepuscular animals, persistence of infernal light, obscurity of terrestrial waters, pallor of human beings.
His (Bloom's) logical conclusion, having weighed the matter and allowing for possible error?
That it was not a heaventree, not a heavengrot, not a heavenbeast, not a heavenman. That it was a Utopia, there being no known method from the known to the unknown: an infinity, renderable equally finite by the suppositions probable apposition of one or more bodies equally of the same and of different magnitudes: a mobility of illusory forms immobilised in space, remobilised in air: a past which possibly had ceased to exist as a present before its future spectators had entered actual present existence.

Flora vs. Fauna, UNDERWORLD IV
This one illustrates the occasional dominion of plants over animals, hence the title; "FLORA vs FAUNA"
The scrotal looking plants in the painting are California Pitcher plants, also known as "COBRA LILIES". These clever plant adaptations entice their insect pray into a narrow mouth, heading toward a digestive "pot" with inward pointing hairs, preventing the insect from reversing out, sort of like a lobster trap.
The big red "flower" is modeled after an Anthurium. However the stamen of this particular Anthurium is patterned after a "Sticky Trap" carnivorous plant, (the Drosera Capensis). But of course, Anthuriums don't have tendrillic appendages which capture hornets either. (But wouldn't it be wonderful if they did!)

Ecos al leer a Swedenborg
Las cosas mentales son espirituales las corpóreas naturales, y a la inversa. Juego de espejos y correspondencias proyecta nuestro cuerpo, descienden por oscuros tramos y se eleva hasta completar la radiante esfera que es así mismo una rosa y universal cuerpo. Podemos ver correspondencias que ocurren entre el fenómeno espiritual y natural; un fenómeno naturales es la representación de uno espiritual, imagen sensible de la sustancia invisible. Cuando los atributos interiores del hombre son proyectados al exterior, son imagen móvil visibles de estados mentales eternos como cristales de roca que refleja las ondas de las luz al exterior y así mismo del exterior recibe y reforma las formas exteriores que se hacen interiores y exteriores al tiempo y se representan sensiblemente los poderes intrínsecos del hombre y el cosmos . Cuando éstos están en harmonia; lo interno y lo externo, superficie y profundidad, textura y etéreo, sagrado y profano, tiempo y espacio, todo se corresponde en doble y triple movimiento de correspondecias, sentido y razón se reflejan, superponen y trascienden en una red de sonidos y divinas letras

To a chinese Friend
Your old masters said;
The whole universe, infinite, vibrate within you;
The hundred school of thought,
The methods of government, war, and diplomacy;
the School of Law.
Taoism; seeking experimenting with the self and adapting it to the rhythm of nature.
Confucian and Taoist shifting with the music of nature.
Mohism and the idea of universal love
The Burning of the books and burial of the scholars by the first emperador
The suppression of freedom of speech (to be invented later prints) .
The infinite wall
The Wu Xing or the Five Movements;
Wood, fire, earth, metal, water; all are made of yin and yang in precise amounts.
That secret pentagon that time and his cycles have drawn
The structure of the cosmos; Mirrored in five phases:
Can you see the magic Flower?
There is a delicate Balance in the intricate movement of fire.
Geomancy
Oracle bones
Sun Tzu's and his Art of War,
The Chinese characters
I Chin and his cryptic hexagram, with a symbolic system used to perceive order in chaotic events,
The mythical Fu xi and the yellow river,
The feng shuim, the magic compass and the harmonic course of life-energy
The early instrument;
The Chinese astronomy and astrology,
The traditional Chinise medicine and music,
Military strategy and martial arts.
The magnetic river going through nature and mind
The powerful wizard from Magreb that in the book of one hundred and one night, arrive to China because he knows that there he can find the only one able to exhume the magic lamp, Aladin, and see the smoke become a genius as tall as the sky,
The world is made of correspondences, feels the wizard,
It is full of magical mirror where the small things are the key of the biggest.
In the Chinese calendar;
The sun is like fire
the moon like water.
The fire gives out light and the water reflects it
The armillary sphere and the music that sacred energy strike.
Laozi; author of the (Tao Te Ching)
The fire, the swords, the Dragons and Tigers.
The forgotten memory.
The secret mind.
All those things and thought had to be,
They had to be propitious to carry, in the course of time, your soul
Can you polish your mysterious mirror?
Let´s hear the echoes of your old master.
I ching- thought- in the dynamic balance of opposites;
The evolution of events as a process, and acceptance of the inevitability of change
Chuang-Tzu dreamed he was a butterfly and when He woke up he didn't know if he was Zhuangzi who had dreamt he was a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming he was Zhuangzi.
Laozi -said- The name that can be named is not the real Name;
Free from desire, you experience reality; Trapped in desire, you see only appearances.
Fu Hsuan, thought, Riches and honour are the handmaids of disaster
Takakusu, wrote, stop talking, stop thinking, and there is nothing you will not understand, pursue the light, and you will lose its source.
All are singing as moving music
They are dancing in the play of light and shadows, time and eternity
Heavy is the foundation of light.
Stillness is the source of movement. That is tao
They are talking, You can know the whole world without going out the door,
They are saying in secret tone;
Come into life, go into death.
Before you was born out of your mother, generations, thoughts, and an infinite civilization guided you,
Now you are visible,
in your place you stand with your robust soul.
and through your body, flows the universe.
La danza de los sueños
Cuando el hombre ha intentado dar una explicación del mundo que lo rodea surge el mito como una imagen palpitante de nuestro estado, un movimiento, un dibujo que representa lo incierto, lo problemático y cómico de nuestro estado, y es en éste humor en que surge el baile, la representación móvil de lo eterno, una forma de sentir el mundo, un estilo del vida, un acto que sublima a unos hasta el éxtasis religioso y enloquece a otros tras el hechizo de sensuales pasos y el turbulento movimiento de caderas.
Desde los más remotos tiempos, a trevés de geografías, religiones y filosofías, la danza ha encantado los sentidos y la mente de los hombre, incluso ha trascendido la humanidad, ascendido hasta las esferas sagradas de los dioses como un acto divino que simboliza el movimiento de la creación, la preservación y la disolución; Un ordenado ritmo que crea y rige las cosas, ya que la danza es en su naturaleza una cosa rítmica y repetida que vuelve sobre sí misma. El baile es el cosmos; Música hecha carne .
Si echamos una mirada a la historia veremos como el baile fue concebido como un principio creador del universo. De la pre-historia se han encontrado pinturas rupestres de hace más de 12.000 años donde se representaba el baile como un ritual sagrado, que gobierna el movimiento de las nubes, los cambios de las estaciones y es una forma de comunicación del cuerpo con el mundo físico y el mundo espiritual, como también lo hacían los chamanes de las tribus Colombianas en el periodo pre-Colombino. En India, entre el movimiento sensuales de pies y caderas encontraremos bailando al rey de la danza, Shiva, el bailarín Cósmico, fuente de todos los movimientos del cosmos; las pulsaciones de la sangre, los ciclos de las mareas, el despliegue de las flores, las vibraciones de la energía y el movimiento de las estrellas surgen de su movimiento divino. El propósito de su danza fue pensado como un medio de liberar los hombres de la ilusión del yo que refleja el mundo físico, ésto porque la danza induce al trance, al éxtasis y la experiencia de lo divino y por consiguiente, a la revelación de nuestro lugar en el cosmos. Desde las antiguas civilizaciones; Egipto, Grecia, Roma hasta nuestra América, el baile ha sido un acto de creación y recreación, capaz de transformar nuestras vidas.
Pero dejemos por ahora la historia, el baile sigue formando parte de nuestras vidas así como lo hizo con nuestros antepasados, es algo vivo y en evolución. Vivamos el baile en vivo, tomémonos de la mano y bailemos entre todos, descendamos a la temperatura de las calles y de los cuerpos en movimiento, al son de la música veremos cómo las diferentes formas de bailar pulen el lente a través del cual vemos la ciudad que nos rodea, ya que éste es parte de nuestra identidad, pasión y expresión. La música es nuestro espejo, el baile es nuestro reflejo.

Tawny Owl
Tawny Owl
Yesterday I went bird hunting together with Dennis Rademaker whom I met a month ago at the Veluwe.
Luck was on our side when we started off at the Oostvaardersplassen, a Nature Reserve in the centre of Holland. Upon arrival we were greeted by the most co-operative Buzzard I've ever met! Totally at ease and undisturbed, he even caught 3 mice while we were standing right next to him!
Next we got tipped off on the location of a Tawny Owl up north in the Netherlands and went looking for it. Guess it was a pretty wild idea to go driving 100 miles just on a vague description, but the fact that you are now looking at it, obviously means we found it :-)
Ended the day at the Veluwe to see the Red Deer, which completed a fantastic day.
