Experimenting with style. Loved working on this one. Especially at the end when I realized the horse is kinda just standing there like a sim ominously staring out into the distance.

Had an unexpected surprise at a free Pomfret School concert yesterday. The orchestra performed the theme song for Season 5 Episode 25 of Star Trek the Next Generation, called "The Inner Light." https://bit.ly/3OtX25m (One of the best episodes of Star Trek if you haven't seen already)

As the orchestra performed in one of the most beautiful chapels in Northeast Connecticut, (sample of audio in last image) I couldn't help but have my imagination take me away into the world of Star Trek, which has happened in many churches since I was a kid, especially during doomsday sermons, where I imagined it was just a depressing program playing inside a holodeck, one in which I could exit whenever I wanted simply by calling for the Arch, and then explore the enchanted corridors of a galaxy class starship exploring the wonders of our Universe. ✨

This particular brain storm I had, put me inside a chapel devoted to all things Trek, with beautiful Star Trek sculptures and stained glass windows. I decided to bring some of my imagination to life through AI art and Adobe Photoshop.

While putting these together, I couldn't help but think of my dream for Spaceship Earth-Crew Fellowship of Trek! My entire life I've felt like I can't find where I belong in a world that feels alien to me. And the communities I wish existed so I could fit in, don't yet, so I want to do everything I can to get them started!

I always come back to the idea that perhaps the progressive side of the great religions may be a powerful ally, helping me achieve my dream. I know through experience, that the mention of Star Trek to even the religious, can provoke animated conversations about the future. You can even detect in them an admiration and fondness for Star Trek, even if they have devoted their life to Allah, Yahweh or Christ. I know I will not find any resistance to my dream from progressive Christians, Jews or Muslims who truly understand love. The progressive Christians will vibe with my idea of a man of color Star Trek Jesus, who sees every human being as a fellow crew member of Spaceship Earth. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1AhQ3XpxTv/

Progressive Jews will vibe with the Star Trek Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations Philosophy while even reciprocating when you give them a Vulcan salute to live long and prosper. 🖖 Progressive Muslims will also vibe with the mystical vision of the Inner Light residing in every human being, ✨ even if some people have been blinded to it.

So imagine if I could partner with them to upgrade their faith to include something very important and part of all our lives, but for the most part, lacking in their holy scriptures; high technology. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1CjEemd6go/

Imagine if beside every Church, Synagogue and Mosque, we connected it with a universalist secular space devoted to helping join all humanity as fellow crew-members of the same Spaceship Earth. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1JVeNnqBS6/

This is an idea as beautiful to me as the Inner Light flute solo.✨🎶✨

The full Inner Light track can be heard at the following link.

This concert reminded me of another episode of Star Trek with some great stained glass windows.

LEVERAGING PARAMETERS 1/2

Figma

Figma—a collaborative design tool start-up that Adobe bought last year for $20 billion—was born out of a diversion caused by parameters. When founder Dylan Field set out to build the company, his focus was on drones. In his application for the Theil Fellowship program, he wrote, "I am going to change the world by creating a better software for UAVs." However, his friend and cofounder Evan Wallace eventually convinced him to shift directions from the drone space since they “couldn’t come up with a drone idea that didn’t hurt people or violate their privacy.” This apparent roadblock ultimately became a helpful parameter that allowed the founders to build a bold new tool that transformed the collaborative design process. Read more about the start-up's story here.

The New Toy

Brought home a new computer on Tuesday. It had been on order for a couple of weeks. It's a 15-inch MacBook Air, the newest model, with an M2 chip, 24Gb of RAM, and 2TB of solid state drive.

It's a sweet machine, and I've been spending a couple of days preparing it for our trip to Oregon, when I'll be using it to continue the work I do for church and my recovery fellowship. (I don't officially turn over control of these positions until the end of August, but I'm certain to keep providing some training for a while.)

The old laptop has served me faithfully since 2010, but it has reached the limit of its ability to upgrade to new operating systems. It's already stuck on Catalina, which 10.15. Apple is getting ready to introduce Sonoma, which is version 14. Even my desktop won't be able to go there, so another new machine is in the near future.

Perhaps. It might turn out that the new laptop will be sufficient to do all the work that will need doing in the future. And while the desktop has had a few glitches lately, it's behaving nicely at the moment. I'm not rushing to put in an order, especially since the newest desktop models don't have the lovely big screen that old one does.

I've finished uninstalling all the Adobe products from the old laptop and installing them on the new machine. Not all of them, either, since I've yet to use everything available. Just a few standard options for the time being.

And I wound up not trying to "restore" the old laptop to the new one. Again, there's way too much on there that's not needed, at least in terms of applications, and the files I work with have been maintained on the desktop and moved over as needed.

Which is what I am doing now with the new machine: stocking up on the files and assets I know I will need during our three weeks in Oregon. No need to send over everything. Plus it's easier than ever to use the little SSD drives I have purchased lately for external storage.

Jerry N. Uelsmann (born June 11, 1934) is an American photographer and was an early exponent of photomontage in the 20th century in America. His work in darkroom effects foreshadowed the use of Adobe Photoshop to make surrealistic images in the late 20th century, a process led by his now-ex-wife, Maggie Taylor, at that time. He received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1967, a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship in 1972, and the Lucie Award in Fine Art in 2015. He is a Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain, a founding member of The Society of Photographic Education.
