Congratulations to Mary Ellen Bartley for her 2nd Runner-Up win in Canteen Magazine’s Naked Judging Contest.
Going into the second round of jurying, Mary Ellen’s Sea Change portfolio was the highest rated by the first round of judges (Photographer Anthony Goicolea, photographic duo Tribble and Mancenido, and photographer (and Canteen‘s Art Director) JJ Sulin). But because judging art is a subjective process, the second round of judges felt differently, in fact there was a moment when this portfolio teetered at the exit door. A New York City native, Mary Ellen now resides in Wainscott, on the east end of Long Island. She earned her BFA at Purchase College, where she began her fine art studies in painting and drawing. Bartley was chosen as a Photolucida Critical Mass top 50 photographer in 2012 and 2011. The Calligraphy Blog. Uroboro. Victo Ngai. Sweet. Savory. Sinful. Java Graphers.

How Great Books Work Their Effects On Us. Thursday, January 31, 2013 Reading fiction gives us license to experience emotions without the need for self-protection, writes Brian Krans on the website HealthLine.
Since the events you’re reading about don’t follow you into your own life, you can feel strong emotions freely: “That’s what a new study conducted in the Netherlands reveals about our reading habits and the effect they can have on our psyches. The study, published in PLOS ONE, examines how people experience empathy after reading fiction they find engaging. The key metric the researchers used is ‘emotionally transported,’ or how deeply connected we are to the story. Revista Kokoro. 1x.com - In Pursuit of the Sublime. Recipes, Food, and Cooking Blog.

Many people know Benoît Mandelbrot from the computer screensavers of a pre-LCD era.
Others have a deeper understanding of his mathematics, the repeating geometries that earned him the sobriquet Father of Fractals. Less appreciated, though, is the process underlying his work: Mandelbrot relied as much for guidance on visual imagery as whiteboard formulae. Primitive computer printouts were his maps to uncharted mathematical terrain, their dot-matrix patterns a "here be dragons" for the exploration of dynamical systems and chaos theory.In 2008, fascinated by the interplay between imagery and scientific investigation, art historian Nina Samuel spent two weeks interviewing Mandelbrot in his Cambridge, Massachusetts home.
Mountains of Madness: Scientists Poised to Drill Through Antarctic Ice and Into Gothic Horror. Illustration: Simon Lutrin/Wired What might lurk beneath Antarctica’s 5 million square miles of ice was the subject of speculation by sci-fi writers in the 1930s.
One of the icy products this subgenre of Antarctic Gothic horror spawned is HP Lovecraft’s novella, At the Mountains of Madness, in which scientists drill beneath Antarctica’s ice — only to discover horrid things preserved there. Now, scientists are finally enacting Lovecraft’s scenario: Over the next several weeks they are drilling into three subglacial lakes hidden beneath thousands of feet of ice in Antarctica. What they will find as they sample the lakes and send cameras into their bellies remains to be seen. But one thing is already clear: Lovecraft was actually right about far more than his readers could have realized. In Lovecraft’s story, a team of researchers from Miskatonic University flies into an unexplored region of Antarctica and bores through the ice.
