Hervé Bazin - "L'homme - écrivain"'

Je sais ma chance et je trouve normales certaines rancunes comme certaines résistances de la part de gens qui ne comprennent pas toujours que ce qu'on a été ne préjuge pas de ce qu'on devient. Ne pas se trahir, ne pas se laisser récupérer, c'est un souci. Mais il en est d'autres: surmonter ses contradictions, ses fureurs, ses partis pris, vivre son âge, se remettre en question au nom même d'une réussite toujours relative, toujours provisoire où finit par dominer le sentiment d'avoir à la mériter davantage et d'assumer la responsabilité que comporte une large audience. Hervé Bazin Hervé Bazin est connu pour ses romans et notamment Vipère au poing. Il s’illustra également comme essayiste et journaliste. Mark Florquin – Ellen DC by Mark Florquin, holographer.

JOSE ORTIZ. Reference / Inspiration. Bird Inspiration / Camera Here’s a pretty tight and simple model/animation of a bird. 16 sec can be the part when the first bird appears from the flower’s pollen.

Tandent Lightbrush: engineering an image. One of the more interesting new products shown at SIGGRAPH 2012 in LA was Tandent’s Lightbrush. This was first previewed at a prior SIGGRAPH but it was not yet a product that could be purchased. Lightbrush comes from computer vision research and allows artists to independently work and manipulate surface colors and shading separately in a still picture. The image is split for artist adjustment. While video applications have been demonstrated, for now the product is sold for stills only. There is talk of a video version late next year but no details or pricing for that version have been published.
