Found photos
January 14th, 2005The greatest thing about these photos is the strange formality of them, each picture is paired with another, none contain anyone other than the two main players. At times the woman seems the better photographer and at other times I’m not so sure.

Rendering Moving Pictures is Hard
December 17th, 2004In case you’re curious, here’s how television networks adapt between 60Hz and 50Hz feeds. Some networks just use frame repetition/dropping. However, higher quality television networks use fairly sophisticated equipment which analyzes the movement on screen, and attempts to deduce what frames a camera that was running at the target framerate would have recorded. With such a system, pretty much everything you see is a fiction – something the frame rate converter thinks is a pretty good approximation to the original moving image. And most of the time it works pretty well – a lot better than simply dropping or duplicating frames.
