Circadian Contraptions Day 72
As a reaction to my radio show SteamBeats I’ve heard repeated that I should do more with my voice. I like working with my voice, even if I have my own set of issues with it, so in November I went to a workshop voice acting. This was so much fun that I decided to … Continue reading
Circadian Contraptions Day 71
Taking the photo editing and the juxtapositioning of toys in places one wouldn’t expect to the next level, I’ve added a tiny toy puzzle that I got from a coworker who’s been to Africa to another picture I’ve recently taken. It’s not exactly the right angle, and the lighting isn’t 100% the same, but it … Continue reading
Circadian Contraptions Day 70
It’s been getting colder over here, and though I do not care much for snow when trying to get around, I do love the aesthetic of it. There’s not really snow here yet, more like a thin sheet of frozen dew that has descended upon the world and gives everything a nice white sheen. When … Continue reading

This first picture is Kaylee from firefly, placed in a flowerbed hanging from my … Continue reading

I wanted to do something with surrealism or abstraction. Now the realism bit in this picture is not very well defined. nor was it intended to, it’s there to give the idea of a “real” world vs the more abstract area and line based image on the right. The lines to the right become stronger, … Continue reading
Circadian Contraptions Day 65
I’ve set out to make a caricature today. I read up on it a bit and its mostly about exaggerating known features. So after looking in the mirror for a bit, I’ve written down a few things. The glasses stand out a lot, I have a high forehead, and somewhat thin but wide lips. All … Continue reading
Circadian Contraptions Day 64
Todays contraption is a bit of a collage of a bunch of stuff i did before. I wanted to see what else i could do with the Pixel logo, and this is what came out of it:
Circadian Contraptions Day 63
I’m learning to play a bit with the smart objects and the way you can use filters on a mask. So today’s contraptions is my name written in flames, and some filters added using the smartobjects option.
