Scale, Size, Repetition, Movement and Composition /////////////////// Chris Jordan's Running the Numbers series continues with new work, including Lightbulbs. This photo collage represents the 320,000 lightbulbs that equal the number of kilowatt hours of electricity wasted in the US per minute, due to inefficient household electricity use. Jordan's work is a frightening wake-up call that is based on waste, consumerism, planned obsolescence and the ravages to our environment. The work consists of large, detailed prints put together by using thousands of tiny photographs. The importance of the individual among the collective is made visually clear, and the sheer overwhelming nature of these problems cannot be escaped.

Use salvage materials to make a house. Rearrange broken pieces to create a roof with characters. The builder, Mr. Phillips, calls it Storybook house, I think it is Mymble's house, a character from the Moomin, by the Finnish illustrator and writer Tove Jansson. I grew up watching the Moomins and Mymble is always the mischief in the show and annoyingly sly. I dun like her and she reminds me of me! In the next Photoshop exercise, we'll learn how to use bit and pieces of images to create a visual whole. Much like what Mr. Phillips did with unwanted picture frames corners, broken glasses or tiles to assemble a rustic mural, we'll break apart what we scanned to reconstruct a simple scene of 1 of 4 seasons.
