Everyday I receive 1 or 2 friends request on MySpace and sometimes it leads me to crazy pages… When layout css hacking turns out to be a piece of… crart.

Here is the profile of secret shapes.

I read some articles about HDR (High Dynamic Range) in photography which consists in shooting several pictures of the same scene at different exposures and then merging all of them in Photomatix for instance. Anyway I don’t really care about the technic but the end result is really great, not always but often.

Look at this, it was surely not such a great picture at the beginning.

I tried to obtain the same effect just by playing with tones, colors, contrast, etc, on the picture below. I obviously failed but the result is not so bad actually.

This is Bangkok.

We’re getting close to Les Digitales, a small open-air festival which focuses on electronic experimental music. It takes place in Mon Repos which likely is the most beautiful park in Lausanne. So it’s next thursday (28th of June) from 4 to 10 p.m. and it’s free. After 10 p.m. it moves to Le Bourg for some other concerts. There are 9 groups/artists playing in the park: Iria Flavia / Collectif I+ / Effedege / Radon / Tokoloten / [sic] / Consor / Larytta / POL (in this order I guess). I play around 6 p.m. If you like listening to special music in a special place it’s worth coming.

Here are the flyer and the press kit [pdf].

Ok the idea is not very new: a guy enters a taxi and the driver is actually a rallyman… but this japanese TV show goes a bit further (as always)…

The taximan asks for 660 Yens at the end!!

I’ll be playing live at Fréquence Banane, the radio run by the students of the University of Lausanne, on saturday (June 9). I know that Larkian will be there (that’s him who proposed me to participate, thanks!) but I have no idea who else plays and how long is the program. I haven’t prepared anything yet, so I guess it’s gonna be a lot improvised. That might be interesting…

Saturday June 9th, FM 92.4 from 22:00 to ? for listening to it.

Perhaps my favorite photo taken in Morocco.
