Gone Fishin'
Will be back on or around the 29th. If you have a moment, please check out Flickr, the newest social networking site that just debuted at O'Reilly's Emerging Technology Conference. It's very good at handling visual media. Once I get back to business here, I plan on starting a community space on Flickr for whatever tiny audience TEHI might have. You'll be able to comment on whatever's posted here and I'm thinking it might be interesting to try to get a weekly chat going. In the meantime, please feel free to join the TEHI group that's already been established there.
Anatomical Collages by Frederick Sommer (Part 2)
Last December, I posted about the anatomical collages of Frederick Sommer. A couple days later, James Luckett was kind enough to share this memory of Sommer:
"i actually got to spend a few days with frederick sommer a few years before he died. besides the collages, he was an art photographer -- one of the last great living masters -- but he did lots of different things. anyway, he said that the human body was so beautiful that it was possible to put it together in any way and still have something astonishing."
COSI's Virtual Knee Surgery Exhibit
"Scrub those hands and grab a bone saw!" COSI's Virtual Knee Surgery Exhibit, created by Living Children Multimedia, is one of coolest, most well thought out Flash-based learning application I've seen. It allows the user to participate in all the steps of the procedure and also includes photographs of actual knee surgery for those with strong stomachs.
