The Intersection of Dance and Technology: Miral Kotb

In the "Made With Code" Youtube channel, I was impressed by Miral Kotb's motivating story in the above video about working at the intersections of her passions: dance and technology (computer code). Since this blog is dedicated to the intersection of photography, the Arts, and technology, it struck a chord. We can see what happens mixing dance with LED lighting, electronic technology, and code.

Now I want to see in person, performances by Kotb's Iluminate dance company in New York.

Update: I did travel to New York several months later to see an Iluminate show. It was awesome and I enjoyed the performance.

Made With Code: Limor Fried

While viewing the Adafruit.com Youtube video channel last week, "Ask an Engineer", I became aware of the "Made With Code" Youtube channel to help inspire girls and young women to use software and technology to pursue their dreams. The above video featured Limor Fried, founder of Adafruit Industries and I thought, as a maker myself, it was very inspirational for all makers, not only women.

It's Electric

It was a pleasure working with a new model, Erica, during a photo shoot at the Fortress of the Arts, Philadelphia, on Sunday June 29. Together we collaborated on this electrifying image. Shot in the industrial area of the Fortress, fortunately there was no real power available to capture this shocking event.

Photo Montage

Had fun photo shoot collaborating with model Heather Capuano on Sunday June 29 at the Fortress of the Arts, Philadelphia. We used the old industrial area of the building. I made photo montage images with Lightroom-Photoshop CC and this slideshow video using Proshow Producer.
