This weeks item that has stuck out in my attention has been butterflys.

I'm happy with most of the tools in my paint program and have moved to add the vector program to my workflow and additionally i have explored animation software and found the ones that are most intuitive for me. The big names have too many features and a steep learning curve which i am unwilling to go through. luckily i found some useful open source software that will do the trick for the simple things i want to do in the near future.

I've seen a lot of deepdream stuff on steemit lately which has reminded me about when I first heard about it and I was curious exactly what the setting did and so ran a series of the same image through. Then recently i thought it would be cool to animate them. I only used the weight upto 5 and then the enhance settings after weight 6 the image goes a fair bit crazy and didn't look pleasing.

some crazy birds that annoyed me when i was trying to take a break from report writing and meditate. A made a little song from them.

Attention

We experience a rich world of stimuli unfolding around us and our sampling of the world is highly selective and proactively shaped by numerous external and internal factors. Our brains build complex models of the world around us that are capable of producing simulations of both unperceived aspects of the present, and not yet perceived potential futures. What information we choose to allow into our brains can have immense impact on our lives. Attention shares many common nodes of functional architecture with both working memory and motivation and thus the prioritization and selection of items play a major role in determining what is encoded into memory and what is learned.
Attention comprises an essential set of functions that guide and construct our perception and cognition.
