Photo Memory Dump #1

My little Casio point and shoot has a pretty decent LCD screen and viewing pictures is fun when you hold down the ‘next’ button… it’s fast and it rips through the entire contents of the memory card stop-motion style. Kind of mesmerizing, your life flashing before your eyes all quick-like.
I wanted a way to view pictures like that after they are off the SD card. So, as an experiment, I decided to import the contents of a full card into After Effects and make an HD movie out of the image sequence. Possibly a bit seizure inducing and maybe random if you aren’t close to the subject matter… but a quick way to share several hundred photos. If you are a Vimeo (free and killer video site) member, you can download the source .mp4 file and go through frame by frame using Quicktime.

We raced Meteor (a 38 foot classic wooden sloop) this weekend. Lots of wind and beer. Good times… special thanks to capt. Bill Lee. Meteor and crew won a silver plate, we finished 2nd in our class. That’s us out in front in the photo.

But who wants a white one? I pretty much refuse to wait in line, (well, unless maybe it was a *short* line.) And I guess that means I won’t be getting one anytime soon. Maybe I’ll try some AT&T stores.
