Mesmerizing Pulse Topology + Interactive Art Display

"Pulse Topology" is a transformative piece of interactive art by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, composed of thousands of light bulbs suspended at different heights that create a series of crests and valleys. The streams of lights evolve every step of the way, changing based on someone's unique heartbeat, the amount of heartbeats in the room, and created to resemble the ups and downs of a real life cardiogram. 

Over the Edge: Cliffs + Beaches + Water Views

Came across this absolutely beautiful view of the edges of northern San Francisco during a weekend hike and had to stop to capture it. The bright green grass, turquoise-blue waters, cliffside views of the nearby beaches and Presidio park created this picture-perfect moment. 

An Array of Lights: Lanterns in the Sky

I was inspired by all the ethereal lantern imagery out there and wanted to create a digital art piece similar to it. 

I ended up using this photo of lamps hanging from the ceiling and edited it so it looks like "floating lanterns" in the sky. Adding some blur, transparency, and alternating the hues with more purple and pink tones created a special, dreamlike effect. 

Twilight Skies in Shinjuku City of Tokyo

The 45th floor view of Shinjuku City in Tokyo, Japan. 

This view was well worth the long wait. From watching the last drops of sunlight descending into twilight and into full darkness, it was quite the extraordinary hour.

Aerial View of Simi Valley Mountains

Flying high above the sky with the clearest visibility of the Simi Valley mountains. Such a great blend of mountains, the city life, and chill beach waters.  

Landscape Imagery: Pastel Waterfall Dreams

The Multnomah Falls is a classic favorite.

I decided to manipulate this photo a bit, adding in green-blue pastel hues to make it resemble more like a painting. I also incorporated colorful leaves and some human element so it appears I'm stepping "into the scene."
