The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

Callibrate your Wacom tutorialHad you finally made the transition from intuos 3 to intuos 4?, or Are you rich to change into an intuos 5? Had you made the transition from a first generation cintiq to the new ones?. More levels of pressure will mean more quality to the paintings, am i right?.
Did you thought that by default the pen will it be like using butter on bread?, you try it for the first time and you love all of it, you said i have sooooooo much control on my strokes im having a blast. Then only to realize you only have total control of the brush but when you are moving it really slow?. But when you do quick strokes the pressure drops a lot of paint making you redraw tons of stuff?
Did you ever thought that painter its hard to handle with new tablet? Too much pressure? If it has more pressure why i cant control more easier the beggining of the stroke which is more crucial?.
Have you ever open the customize option in wacom settings, only to feel dumb and no

Europe Trip and a New Lens

by ~Katterrena, May 4, 2008, 2:14:13 AM
Journals / Personal

Mood: Obsessed
Listening to: La Danse Macabre - Camille Saint-Saëns
Reading: Stormbenders by Fandomme
Watching: Star Wars Marathon

STOCK RULES:

Since this is my regular gallery as well as where I am going to upload my stock: DO NOT MANIPULATE ANYTHING THAT DOESN'T HAVE "STOCK" IN THE DEVIATION TITLE.

Please send me a link of your deviation. I would very much like to see what everyone has done. By note, underneath the dev, on my front page, I really am not that picky.

For deviantART only please. If you truly feel the desire to use my stock outside of dA, please contact me and we can hopefully work it out.

Use for contests inside of deviantART.

Do NOT use for contests outside of deviantART.

Do NOT use for Prints, on dA or otherwise. Frankly, my work isn't good enough quality for that.

If you want to use for avatars or journals, so long as they are for deviantART, be my guest.

GOING TO EUROPE

This trip is not going to be as epic as my last to Europe. I'm only going for a week and I lose a day flying into the sunrise. I'm doing my Gramma's favourite World War I tour, so the only places that I am really visiting that are not near or related to that era are Amsterdam and Brussels. I know what I would like to see in Amsterdam, but does anyone know what's interesting to see in Brussels that isn't the peeing statue?

Anyway, I will be taking many photos, which should be of a WAY higher quality then my last trip to Europe. I won't be getting to Paris, so I have no oppourtunity to get more photos of the awesomeness that is Sainte-Chapelle. Hopefully the places I visit will be amazing and I can come back with some truly awesome photos. Not that I have been very good about posting up my awesome photos from last summer… Sorry about that.

NEW LENS

Since I had money donated to me specifically for a lens and because of my upcoming trip, I am now a proud owner of Sigma AF 10-20mm f/4 – 5.6 EX D HSM Wide Angle Zoom Lens. It was WAY less of a hassle to buy this then it was my camera kit (see previous journal entry for all the gory details) and I am happy to report that I got what I wanted the first time with no mishaps, exchanges or wanting to vomit. It helped that it wasn't nearly as expensive and I had my dad there as moral support.

~tgrq Oct 30, 2008 Professional Photographer

i need that len!!!!!

~Katterrena Nov 1, 2008 Photographer

It is a really awesome lens. It wasn't that expensive either, compared to the others I was looking at.

~tgrq Nov 2, 2008 Professional Photographer

i need 1 for my panos

~Katterrena Nov 3, 2008 Photographer

They would be great for your panos. Be sure to get a zoom on it, makes all the difference in the world.

~eurai May 4, 2008 Hobbyist Photographer

Awesome lens! Have fun making Europe look distorted.

~Katterrena May 4, 2008 Photographer

Really, the distortion is minimal. It's not a fisheye.

~eurai May 4, 2008 Hobbyist Photographer

Whaaaat. Its linear distortion is fantastic! How exaggerated angles become and whatnot. In my opinion, anyway.

~Katterrena May 5, 2008 Photographer

Completely agree that it exaggerates the angles but it itsn't anywhere near what a fisheye lens is. Or at least that super expensive Nikon fisheye, at very least.
