I LOVE POLANOID.NET AND THIS IS WHY

I











I probably would have posted more. I just love that website, and posting these helps me hold onto it in my own way I suppose. My favorite is this last one. Of the legs.

DINOSAUR STYLE

So I am taking a production class. An intro to production class actually. For our first assignment we had to take photos to show our understanding of composition and framing. The class actually has a super cool concept behind it... you learn the elements of film that are often over looked before actually making films. That way you can learn programs while learning about framing and composition concepts, sound design, and creation of story and motion. However I do not like my teacher very much. He looks like an alien from Men in Black. Seriously. I'm really not kidding. Anyway, I'm rather pleased with one of the photos I took for the class. My whole aesthetic concept behind the assignment was a dinosaur. I have a wooden t-rex skeleton that I love, I used it to create five pictures that demonstrated five composition concepts. Here they are.

OH MY GOD

I love that photo so much. I want to cry. Because it is so great. I love it. It made my night. And made me cream. Just a little. I would never post such profanity had I not fallen madly in love. Oh god. Have I said I love it? Cause I do.

I WAS WRONG

The website of fantastic, orgasmic, lovely pictures is POLANOID.NET not .COM. Sorry for the mistake... I wasn't paying attention. Anyway I found this positively yummy picture on there as well. I haven't looked at the whole website yet so I can continue to explore and be pleasantly in love with all the great finds. Whoever takes these pictures is my photo god. I miss polaroids already.

REALLY SUPER COOL

This polaroid rocks socks. I found it on a website with vintage polaroids. Its called polanoid.com if you are interested.

SOME COOL PHOTOS OF THINGS FROM THE NET

A tote bag from Village. It can be found at vllg.com. Actually Ian's mom has this bag, I think it is quite fabby, I wouldn't mind one for myself. (I have a bag problem however, I'm going to restrain from buying it.)
This is an interesting twist on the concept of a treehouse. They are called Free Spirit Spheres. They will come and install them for you and then you do as you please. Some people use them for offices, or places to hang out, I don't think anyone lives in one... but you could. There are more piccys on the site: http://www.freespiritspheres.com


This last item is a fabulous stool. I found it on the same blog that had a bit about the tree sphere. (I was looking for information about an installation piece by the group Cracking Art. In July they had a piece at the Cloister of Bramante in Italy. I was writing a paper about art and conventions/context and a bit of history and started to research this piece, which is how I stumbled across the blog with the treehouse and this stool.) This stool is called: The One Shot Stool by Patrick Jouin. If you want to know the whole bit about it you can check out this guys blog... where I found all these things: http://oneandonlybrands.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html

And just in case you were wondering what the Cracking Art piece looked like:

This website is trying to get the rights to the chemistry... so we can still have instant film! Which rocks. A lot.
