Work in progress

Here’s part of what I was working on while in the Banff Centre. It’s a work in progress. Note the wall of failure on the right. There’s also a wall of limbo and a wall of info that I’m not sure is part of the work. I’m not anywhere near done editing so this is a super duper rough version. Please keep that in mind. I’ll post a write up about it soon.

Here’s a photo of the wall of info.

Here’s a bad photo of the wall of limbo.

images from my work at The Banff Centre

I’ll put them up here in a few days. I’ve been avoiding editing the images using my very slow internet connection in Banff as an excuse since they would be nearly impossible to upload anyways. Really I just didn’t want to do it. I’m lazy and don’t want to use GIMP for much editing since it requires x11 to run in mac OS X so some things don’t work as smoothly for me as they did when I used photoshop.

leaving the Centre soon

I’ve been very bad at posting photos lately for a variety of reasons — even though I have several hundred. Don’t worry I won’t make anyone look through all of them. Maybe I’ll just post a link to the flickr group of “final days at Banff” or something similar. It’s strange knowing that the end is near and I’ll soon be in my “real” life. I have all these mixed feelings about it. It’s been an oddly utopian experience. I think this is the last post from here. See you soon.

Photos from the astrophysics trip

Unfortunately I forgot my camera so these photos are low quality and from my phone.

Sulphur mountain trip

I took 87 photos on this trip and there’s no way I can post them all since I couldn’t get them all on Flickr. I have a terribly slow internet connection. So here are a few (relatively) photos.

Images from another walk

So living in Phoenix I don’t get to see the kind of plant life that grows here much so I’ve taken tons of photos.

There’s a river that runs thru the town.

There are Magpies everywhere and giant crows.

Also trees that change color for fall.

Puzzles

I was gifted these awesome and weird puzzles.

mathematicians

One of the non-shy residents chatted up a couple of mathematicians and got them to give us a talk about the research they are doing here. It was really interesting. They’re here to do some work on group theory.

Elk and the walk to Banff

Karolina Sussland — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 02:05:04 +0000

I saw 2 elk today.

This was my walk from the Banff Centre to Banff downtown.

Yes, they have a Beaver Street!

more new photos

I got my studio yesterday and it’s so amazing. Here are 2 photos.

Saw some deer yesterday. They get quite close to people and don’t seem to care about our presence though I heard that they aren’t so fond of dogs. Here are 2 attempts to get some shots of the deer.
