The Last Few Pictures from The City of the Future Series

(#47) In the future the mightiest tower of the Empire will be lost in a forest of glass and steel. (This tower with the cupola, the former headquarters of the Vancouver Sun newspaper and still called the "Sun Tower", was the tallest building in the British Empire when it was finished in 1922)

( Ten More )

These were all made just outside Chinatown and in Yaletown on the 4th of September. With these all the the "City of the Future" pictures have been processed and are ready to be put in an on-line gallery for the project.

Today I picked up the two prints from this series that were hanging in the Hive show and they are now hanging over my desk. Printed on professional-grade paper (which even smells like a wet-process analogue photo) with the professional-grade printer I purchased in the spring, these look awesome printed at 7" x 9" and matted and framed in a 11" x 14" frame.

The Mechanic's Car

I've started putting together a website for the design/programming/custom-art side of work. At this point it is pretty much crap. I've got a logo and a slogan:

We make art for business.

And I've dumped in a blogging app so I can do some tech-blogging and talk about my projects separated from the fine art related stuff (and the general whinging) that goes in here in my more personal blog. If you are interested in my business blog you can get the RSS feed through LJ at araneum_canada or you can get it with a news aggregator at http://www.araneum.ca/db/blog.nsf/stories.rss

The site on a whole is no where near where I want it to be, but it is better than the dreaded "future home of" place-holder.
