My first handmade video

I edited and published this Liquid Checkers video using the pre-installed Windows programs "paint" and "make a movie" in under a couple of hours.

Watching it on repeat kind of gave me a hypnotic trance effect a little, I only watched it for a short period though.

I wish the "make a movie" program has a picture morphing transition effect, but it didn't so plain fade will have to do.

Oil Caverns


No one ever talks about the empty space that is filling up when the oil comes out. I have a prediction that massive pits will form when all the oil is drained. Or the oil might just be continually replenished by Earth properties not yet known(not likely). If these massive sink holes form way in the future they may be seen as bottomless pits. Watch Out! a chasm may collapse right under your feet when it's empty(or near empty)! Of course water might just fill these voids as soon as the oil is removed, still, that seems dangerous to me as well.

my first stereo photos






These stereo photos were made on this date using pictures i just took. Stereo photos are pretty much the same as the Real D 3D(no red and blue lens) movies that are showing now except that you don't use the special glasses to see it in 3D(so it's harder to do), but if you can view stereograms like the Magic Eye pictures then the stereo photos here should be easy.

They were easy to make, you just take one pic at your right eye's angle and another at the left eye, then edit them together using a picture program(I used "paint").

I use the method of looking "through" or "behind" the image to get it to cross itself; like if you look at your hand and then look behind it, your hand appears to double right? Do the same to the stereo photo until it crosses enough to focus in 3D--- you have to "look" far behind the monitor for it the cross enough. Keeping your head very still and level helps when viewing in stereo and if you decide to expand them to full size you might want to move back a few feet just to be able to cross the two picture all the way over each other.
