that's Double Tents by Paul Klee (1923), and I hope to head to my local library soon to pick up a book of his stuff because I love it! He apparently helped to develop a lot of modern color theory.

hey Z S where's the best place to start w/ color theory.

(plz dont point me to an ILX thread about teal and orange)

gr8080, Sunday, 6 February 2011 03:27 (fifteen years ago)

you should ask abbbottt that! i just mentioned it because i know she's interested in color theory and is pretty much a pro. i, on the other hand, am the kind of person who needs to take 15-20 seconds to remember what color red and blue combine to create.

Z S, Sunday, 6 February 2011 03:30 (fifteen years ago)

I am trying to get into this too. Ppl have told me to start w/ Albers' "Interaction of Color"

my boyfriend wants you to animate some of the "pictures of famous people" pics from that thread but he can't remember which ones

there are so many amazing pictures on that thread. i was working on nancy reagan + mr. T/Santa Claus about an hour ago but i gave up because i couldn't think of any way to improve it

Absolutely loving the real deal pyramids one.
Last Sat. was my birthday and I dropped some acid to celebrate and I swear I spent 10 minutes staring at the Klee one near the end of my trip. It was a joyous 10 minutes.

Fetchboy, Sunday, 6 February 2011 12:44 (fifteen years ago)

gr8080, Sunday, 6 February 2011 13:51 (fifteen years ago)

ya'll are way too nice.

that's funny, though, fetchboy, because that Paul Klee one reminds me of my last, awful trip, a few years ago, where i ended up staring at the inside of my drawn blinds at sunset for about half an hour, freaking myself out into thinking that 1)hell existed and 2)i had discovered the portal. every once in a while someone on tumblr leaves a comment like "i'm saving this one for when i'm shroomin' next weekend!" and i think "if i contribute to yr freakout i am so so sorry"!

Hey ZS, I would like to make Watson speech programmer Bhuvana Ramabhadran aware of my love for her, can you please animate this headshot into a not-so-creepy expression of my infatuation? Preferably with some sort of robot imagery?

gr8080, Thursday, 17 February 2011 06:59 (fifteen years ago)

That's a good idea, and maybe I'll send them my Emerson lake and boner one too, and the king crimson.

Forks, I'll try to get on yours soon. I've been lol sad for no real reason lately and it's hard to be creative in that state for me. If you do end up getting it on with this lady as a result of any gif I make, I would kindly request that you tell her to visit weinventyou.net within 20 seconds of the climax, either before, after or during.

you are taking me apart, Lisa! (Z S), Thursday, 17 February 2011 13:57 (fifteen years ago)

it's about as unlikely as could be, but that is my promise to you.
i will absolutely start a "I <3 U Bhuvana Ramabhadran" thread with any gif you provide tho.

Should the headphones be heavily pixelated in the dealwithit tradition, or photorealistic?

These are pressing issues of the day!

you are taking me apart, Lisa! (Z S), Friday, 18 February 2011 21:50 (fifteen years ago)

shit thats a really good question.

i'd say heavily pixelated but still recognizable as BEATS BY DR DRE style headphones?

gr8080, Friday, 18 February 2011 22:53 (fifteen years ago)

ok, I haven't done that yet, but I did work on
