Description
It’s been a while since I’ve spun and jiggled. It was still warm outside. Corey hadn’t yet gotten his zipper. The adorable counter guy at The Perfect Cup was still a new and adorable face. Now, it’s cold. Corey has a new heart valve, and the adorably-cute counter guy at the Perfect Cup is not so new a face anymore. There is a vague, very vague possibility that he’ll become one of my models. I have yet to bring that possibility to his attention; It’ll happen soon, especially since I have a couple of models as it stands, and it’s just a matter of scheduling. (Oh, and by the way, models with Science Fiction props is the most interesting possibility I can foresee right now, and one of my models has not only volunteered to model, but to build more props!)
Anyway, it’s been a while since I’ve spun and jiggled, and a longer while since I’ve posted the end result of such complicated and oh-so-disciplined actions. I’ve decided to remedy that situation with my Eighth homage to kinetic photography. No traffic was stopped in the making of this image. A few creatures of the night were left vaguely confused, but that’s not so surprising. It’s easy to confuse creatures of the night.
As with all of my neon abstracts, this is based on a single image of light-streaks. I simply layered and shifted layer modes until I got the end result that I wanted. As usual, I listened to music…in the instance of this picture, the soundtrack to Inception provided the musical inspiration. Hans Zimmer does good stuff, and track three on the Inception soundtrack really sent a nice line of goose-bumps up my spine. Goose-bumps go quite well with spinning and jiggling…or the end result of spinning and jiggling.
I’m sure that there will be more spins and jiggles in the near future. I’m quite curious to see if the presence of snow will do something different with the overall art form. I’m sure that it will. I’m also curious to see if spins and jiggles will have some effect on the model’s I’m accumulating in terms of the next phase of my photographic and artistic development. I’m quite excited, and all I can say is…watch this space.
As usual, thank you for viewing, reading, and commenting, and I hope you’ve enjoyed this spinning-jiggle shot as much as I enjoyed making it.

I was noticing that I haven't commented on your gallery in a long time. Hmmmmmmmm. Anyway, this is pretty groovy and I like it a lot! Kind of like looking at a lava lamp. I'm enjoying your spin-cycle period.pinning!
Cool abstract!
I love these, I am amazed every time that it all starts out with moving as you shoot lights at night. Very creative work!
Sorry that I don't get to comment more often but this thumbnail, I assume, of you really caught my attention. You are an elf -- please no offense. You know that I'm nuts about elfs (no 'elves' - but there's something about 'elfs'). Could explain some things (I'm also assuming that perhaps you elf'd yourself in photoshop but that's cool because it fits. I love your experimentation too.
You've definitely taken the jiggled and spun lights to a whole new level and it's very entertaining. As Bothellite has already commented on your new avatar, I admit I was thinking the same thing, although in your case, perhaps Vulcan? I look forward to the models with sci-fi props, sounds very intriguing!
this is super cool
I just love the end result of these forays into spin-n-jiggle world! Just to make sure I hadn't missed something, I looked back at some of my Chicago shots to check your ears. Nope ... you've changed, my dear! :D
wonderful image!!
Like your new avatar.Outstanding work my friend.
I nice piece to contemplate so late at night. The electric colour of city lights weaved to take the form of tapestry. Or perhaps the complex and enigmatic meanderings of twelve dimensional quantum strings. Or perhaps some exotic and alien (though curiously still reliant upon vacuum tubes) projection system that when activated can manifest materialistic three dimensional images - more substantial than holograms but just as ephemeral.
I can imagine Janeway seeing that from some portal of the Enterprise, turning to Tom Paris and saying "Thrusters only Tom. Let's go investigate!" Leastways, that's what I'd do. Jiggle on Chip! Fabulous! ^=^ Even more wonderful to see Corey here! ^=^
A masterpiece from Mr S&J himself! I should like to try it, but as I felt slightly dizzy all day yesterday it won't be that soon.
A true display of your mood and that is what art is all about.
cool lightplay
Cool result/flow!

What a beautiful neon spun of light. Looks fantastic. I am ready to see more of that later. :-)
A neon web, as only Chip can weave one...beautifully done!

Well done - I hear some music in my head when I watch this. Some old disco-tunes I think.
