Thanks for your opinion, but your queries are confounding. Perhaps a quick google search would help you answer these questions better than I could in an email reply: <a href="http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=%22purpose+of+art%22" rel="nofollow">The purpose</a>.

The code analyzes each 1-pixel-wide column of pixels in the photo and looks for the vertical location where the sky meets the mountain, based on the shift in colors. Let's say the first column's location is 300 pixels from the top. The code remembers that number and goes to the second column and looks for the vertical location again. This time it's 306 pixels from the top of the image. The code then moves that full column up 6 pixels so that now the location is at 300 (306 - 6), the same as the first column. And then it moves on to the third column and finds the key point at 302 pixels. The code moves it up 2 pixels to 300. And then on and on until all the columns are moved up or down to 300 to flatten the image. The mountains were flattened using javascript code I wrote to affect images in Photoshop.

I don't think this is that great. What is the purpose of these images? what would you even use them for? everyone has their opinions, which is great... mine is just that I don't think these images are anything special.

I do agree. I’m curious what you did exactly to flatten pictures like that (i’m okay at drawing art, but picture anatomy is beyond my capability, or mind set at the very least)

Wonder what it would be like to climb the flattened ones. CG As both a mountaineer and photographer I find these images somewhat compelling. Wonder what it would be like to climb the flattened ones.

I'm trying to get into scripting myself. I'm a graphic design student but so far I've been self taught in scripting. I'm amazed by the work you've done. Do you accept internships at all at your studio? This is wonderful.
