north-south feeling

Last week the piece went online. I’m really glad it’s finished and I’m happy with the result. I do have to rent a lot of extra Mb’s hosting space. But it’s worth it. So please visit the website: www.numuseum.nl/noord-zuidgevoel A fast Internet connection is a must to get a smooth download. You need the latest Flash player to view this work.

Have lots of fun with this work. Drop me a line to let me know what you think.

At this moment I’m uploading all the material to the web. The whole project folder is 195 Mb! That’s not surprising as it contains thousands of photographs. The script for the whole application is 535 lines long. There is one bug that I couldn’t fix at this moment. But after two months of full time work on this project I’m calling it a day. Hopefully nobody will notice the bug and then it won’t matter. Of course there are little inconsistencies with the data but it would take me another month to sort all that out. On the whole visitors can get a very good idea of two weeks in the life of D. R. Sometimes it’s very intimate, sometimes it’s very boring, sometimes it’s quite exciting. Just like real life

I’ve recovered from the flue which has stopped me from working for three days. I picked up my poster from the print shop today. The result is OK. Due to outdated information on their website I made my lay-out to small so the quality could have been better.

My notes on two image folders

For ages I’ve been wanting a program that allows me to make notes on folders. So a visual and textual clue about what’s going on with a specific file or folder. I did a little search last week and found File Notes Organizer. I’ve been using it as a trial and I’m very happy with it. Especially with all the different things going on in respect to the images I’m sorting now for this project. It’s nice to see where you are and what’s finished and so on. I think I’m going to buy it once the trial period is over.
