Optical Illusions

I've always loved these things. Everything that you see is in your mind. You can click on the images to get a larger view and full effect.

Are these discs spinning?


Are these lines straight?

Are the squares equally spaced?

Similar to last, are the red lines all straight?

Move your head in and out when you look at this one.

Monterey

Haven't updated for a while because was at a conference for work in Monterey California.

View from my hotel room, overlooking a golf course.

The Hyatt always has the best beds. Could sleep entirely in pillows if you desire. An observation on a recent Seinfeld show reminded me of how the sheets are too tight at the base of the bed and can break your ankle if not careful.

The Wharf. Lots of good seafood and Boston clam chowder.

A view overlooking the dusk bay. Turns out Governor Schwarzenegger was in Monterey at the time too, but only saw him on the news.

cyriak's animation mix

Some work of a talented animator who posts often on b3ta.com. Other than that I can't describe it other than as better than esoteric.

Borat Politics

I'm sure most of you have heard the hoopla about Borat by now. Here is a sampling of his obtrusive humor. Some of this is obviously staged, but some probably not. Wait for the Oklahoma City Council at the end.
Space For Rent

Weekend in Wisconsin

Haven't updated for a while because I was in Wisconsin for the weekend. Was more work than play as my sister, her husband, and my step-dad spent most of the time cleaning and organizing the attic which was a disaster zone. Were fun moments too though, with lots of good family, food and wine, a bonfire, and even some Karaoke.

Pile of DOZENS of old grandmommy sketches, and prints. Also includes some by Aunt P and T. In the background a pile of dishes that we thought might not be garage sale worthy (Christmas plates, etc.)

Tables, chairs, doll clothes (in chest), and old yearbooks.

Tip top tea table, an old inkwell desk, and a chair that has been reupholstered.

Another similar chair, a rocking chair, and another chair in background. Add in some oriental rugs to boot.

The worst part was coming back to Tulsa and the allergies, my eyes started itching while the plane was still ten thousand feet in the air! Back to feeling like my head has a constant dull buzzing.
