This is an attempt to take an concrete advantage out of the course.
For a while, I´ve been searching solutions to make a-ball-shaped-photograph, but due to lack of time or whatever, the results haven´t seen the daylight yet. So, inspired by this course and these digital methods of sharing thoughts and knowledge, I´m trying to find co-worker(s) for this contemporary photography project throuh this medium.
As I know, there haven´t been such "photographic balls" around yet, so the work would be innovative research of a few technical solutions, testing them together to make a prototype, and to look where the results could lead.
To explain a little, The Photo-Ball is the whole view, scenary in one photograph. It´s made out of a large amount of photographs taken from every direction around the camera and digitally put together as one. David Hockney´s picture, on the right, is a harsh example of the idea. The hardest thing is bending a two-dimentional surface over a round object to match precisely to make pleasure to body and soul. The Photo-Ball. The Ultimate Format! And we´ll make it! Or not.'

I made several hundreds of 360 degree panoramic photos few yeears ago.
I also made few of those "ball" photos.
there are many softwares thar can join multible photos into one long photo. just search internet for those programs. some require a lisence but you might find secret passwords for activating the software.
for ball photos you need a very wide angle lens and tripod with panoramic movement.
email me for more information.
