The ball of light project by Denis Smith. www.denissmith.com.au
The Ball of Light is a photographic project by Adelaide photographer Denis Smith. Denis has taken traditional photography (no Photoshop here) and added a new dimension with his ‘Ball of Light’ creations.
The Ball of Light floats in space transforming various locales into mystical portals bursting with otherworldly colours and energy. The contrast of the glowing spheres with the straight precise lines of the settings pulls in the viewer, triggering a sense of imagination and wonder. It’s ethereal and still organic, and at the same time bold and almost blunt. The Ball of light fits into and augments it’s settings without being overwhelming.

A sound subway map
The New York subway map becomes an interactive instrument: “At www.mta.me, Conductor turns the New York subway system into an interactive string instrument. Using the MTA’s actual subway schedule, the piece begins in realtime by spawning trains which departed in the last minute, then continues accelerating through a 24 hour loop. The visuals are based on Massimo Vignelli’s 1972 diagram.”
