Relying on Language to Survive

Posted on by martinbelgica
What is the purpose of communication and language? Let us dive into its wanderings. こんにちわ　わたし　わ　生き延びる する. 元気　ますた。 Will you survive the Japanese world with your english alone? Or will nihongo save you from certain despair and confusion? 苦し. MIND IN FORM IS LANGUAGE Thought in form is language, if a thought is blurry it can never be described, if a thought is vivid and clear it can be described written and drawn. Why did I use Kanji with the pervious? sentences , it is because it is a form of drawing, not remembering that the english alphabet as letters are also drawings. This shifts the brain that novels are drawing codes based on alpha numeric systems. Relying on language to...Read More

7 Churches Visit 2024

Posted on by martinbelgica
Annually we visit 7 churches to pray or relive the way of the cross, the sacrifice of Jesus christ. We always go to the same 7 churches same as last year disregarding Marist School Chapel, I planned to take photos in a more personal way but sadly that idea was halted by church politics, were the heavens and the earth accused the men of light or the devotees of God as heretic irrelevant members of society, in fear of the devil this is the case. So for me, how can I post about the church in a possessed society of devils and idiotic phantasmic propagandist against the church, the people and coercive scenarios contrary to the fulfillment of the will...Read More

Light and Imagery Inversions

Posted on by martinbelgica
My last shoot using the studio. Starting march 2024 I will focus on my Yoga practice and do less photography for the website. Thinking of a topic to discuss concerning imaging is the magic inversion. It came to my mind when I was contemplating lens distortions, what can I do with lens distortions to create imagery. Here are my attempts as a general idea. Using a magnifying glass and lenses I managed to create a fractal image. Another Idea is using the same concept but moving the subject. here is an image sample. Playing with the magnifying glass I noticed the convergence phenomenon and saw my Shiva painting inverted looking into the lens. I decided to do a shoot using...Read More

Contemplating the Mindstate of Lovecraft led to Lens layering

Posted on by martinbelgica
One afternoon during the humid weather in Asia, a magus contemplated the horrors of HP lovecraft. Cthulu whispers "I await my coming and so I sleep and dream." Looking forward in the dimensions of perceptions of giant men and flying dragons the barrier of the raining veil the magus sees through the lens in time. What can the magus see through the lens in layers of magnification and filtration of light "Is there cthulu? can I see Cthulu sleeping?" the Magus asks himself. The answer to this is left unknown... Oh what horrors are beyond the magnified lens, the distortions of the notion of cthulu and the writings and ramblings of HP Lovecraft.

Photos and Imaging Inspired by thinking Moldova

Posted on by martinbelgica
Looking at my analytics it is a surprise I see Moldova on my top 5. How can my Imaging reach Moldova? I decided to think Moldova and let's see what I can produce. 1st idea is about the color yellow the sun hits Moldova differently and so 2 pillars and a couple of round stones with 2 pillars became an idea. 2nd Idea is the window trying to reach the view of Moldova, thinking and longing is the 2nd Idea, the window. 3rd Idea is the mountain side of Moldova trying to mimic the countryside without much referencing using blender I ended up with such.

Adolfo Numero 2 : Spanish Guitar

Posted on by martinbelgica
Images of Adolfo Spanish Guitar number 2. I got this spanish guitar from my uncle, a guitar issued year 2005. I tested it for a couple of minutes playing classical music, after a couple of pieces I decided to take some photos using Nikon SB910 flash. It still sounds good and still has superb tone, treble and wood is preserved and at that decent condition to produce beautiful music. The wood still produces great percussive sound for flamenco playing.

Ai against Man. A friendly Rivalry……

Looking on facebook I saw a page group that posts image processing content and I figured why not try it. The topic will be image restoration. Restoring image is not my thing but I do have enough knowledge about texture , color and light to make it work. Original Image : Post by Efa Octoso Bandong | Facebook Look at what Ai did.
