Animoto - Skip Hunt :: Visual Artist

Animoto had a promo going for a free full length video so I used it before it expired. ;-)

Just so cool how well their software matches up images and motion with sound.

I used all of the images I've edited so far from a recent road trip.

Riding the easy ribbon through Arches' bedrock primordial ecstasy... near heat stricken and burning from radiation kiss.

Bob Dylan preached the way as the stony red flesh commanded my crystal vision.

Overcome and in an instant I finally understood why Jesus wept.

Hanging in the Smithsonian!

Well, it's official! I'm proud to announce that soon, I will be able to say my work is hanging in the Smithsonian Castle on the National Mall in Washington D.C. 

This image was selected to hang in the "Editors' Picks: The Best of Smithsonian Magazine's 7th Annual Photo Contest." From July 1st through February 2011! 

Dear Mr. Hunt, 

I am pleased to inform you that your photograph was chosen for display in the upcoming exhibit, "Editors' Picks: The Best of Smithsonian Magazine's 7th Annual Photo Contest." The exhibit, which is currently in production, showcases 30 of the 50 finalists from Smithsonian Magazine's 7th Annual Photo Contest. It will be on view from July 1, 2010 through February 28, 2011 in the first floor of the Smithsonian Castle on the National Mall in Washington DC. 

Last year, more than one million visitors viewed our previous exhibit, and likely, a million more will view your image this year. 

Congratulations on a job well done. 

They didn't mention anything about cash, so I'm guessing I didn't win the prize money for my category. But, to be honest... although cash is nice, being selected for this show was all I was really after. :-)

Hoola girl at Eeyore's Birthday 2010

Hoola girl at Eeyore's Birthday 2010

The audio track is a recording I did during an annual Austin, Texas party celebrating Eeyore’s Birthday 2010. The recording walks up to a spontaneous drum circle, enters and weaves around capturing various sounds and homemade instruments.

I shot the hoola girl diggin' beats in this source video at the same event.

Feel free to SHARE!

High-End Bars starting to curate local artists? Yes!!!

I had this idea awhile back, but it looks like a local firm is actually doing it now, ie. using high-end bar plasmas as "curated galleries" of local artists. I made this slideshow to be played in a soon-to-be-open tequila bar in downtown Austin.

Soon... On the Road Again

After far too much deliberation, I think I’ve finally settled on searching for the “exotic” within the familiar landscape of my own country, the United States.

I will be dispensing tidy morsels along the way free of charge with links to more text, image & sound rich versions that will be easy to buy via paypal and will only cost between the cost of a cup of coffee and a well drink. ;-)

I don’t know if anyone will value my efforts enough to toss a few pennies my way, but I’m hoping for the best. I plan on also kickin’ the quality of my dispatches up a bit and spending the time necessary to whittle it down to nothing but the cream. :-)

I have a couple projects to wrap up & I need to get a bit of maintenance done to my steel steed “Betty Blue” and then I’ll be off into the great unknown. To where exactly, I haven’t a clue. But, will likely ask for suggestions from you all along the way.

More to come. Stay tuned! :-)

4th CNN Travel Photo of the Day!

Just got my 4th CNN Travel Photo of the Day! Made this image atop a mountain at this very mystic place in Mexico called Tepoztlan. :-)

Also, I had a very strange experience while on a wild motorcycle odyssey in Mexico in June thru Aug 2009.

Here's the blog posting and photos from this particular locale where I made the image and encountered "A Portal to Another Dimension": http://bit.ly/99cZ78

Lonely Planet giving away free iPhone guides in honor of Eyjafjallajökull messing with Europe

Did Eyjafjallajökull mess your week up? The answer is probably "no" if you're asking whoEyjafjallajökull is. For those of us who did have our week interrupted by that big exploding volcano in Iceland, Lonely Planet is offering thirteen of its City Guides for free in the App Store (and okay, they're free to all, no proof of volcano-interruption required).

The aptly-named "Volcano Relief Sale" is being held in hopes of helping travelers stuck in unfamiliar places find "access to practical information as well as suggestions on what to do whilst stranded," according to Tom Hall, Lonely Planet Travel Editor. "That's why we're giving away iPhone city guides to major affected destinations."

Those destinations include: Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Budapest, Copenhagen, Istanbul,London, Moscow, Munich, Paris, Rome, Stockholm, and Vienna.

Spectacular New View of a Cosmic Cat’s Paw

This new image of the Cat’s Paw Nebula reveals new details laid bare by the near-infrared imaging of the VISTA telescope.

The Cat’s Paw, located 5,500 light-years away in the Scorpius constellation is filled with dust that makes for a beautiful image (below) but obscures many of the stars. The European Southern Observatory’s VISTA telescope in the Chilean Atacama Desert is the most powerful near-infrared imager on Earth with a main mirror that is more than 13 feet across as well as the largest infrared camera on any ...

"Anticipation Gold" ~ 10th floor of the Hard Rock Hotel, Las Vegas © 2010 Skip Hunt

“Flittering tinge of golden joy as soft rays massage the final hour.

The hour of anticipation and electic anxiety that promises untold delight.

Elated expectation hidden from the main event, IS the main event. 

Always lifting spirit higher than the event itself. Be aware of every moment,

and you will awaken to neglected gems of warm enchantment."

Conscious Stream ~ 04.14.10

You’ve read about mutilated livestock and it’s always speculated that those dastardly extra-terrestrials were likely to blame. I wonder… do they ever find human’s with their organs mysteriously removed with surgical precision? If not, I find that highly suspicious.

I watched a woman in high heels teetering along the asphalt parking lot with the focus and easy determination of a Barnum’s stilt-walking clown. I get that the extra height has a slimming effect and that the look is considered attractive in western culture. Still,I always wonder why. Who was the first person who decided making shoes that balance atop a spike was a good idea?

Wouldn’t it be funny to discover the original inventor was a male, and the only desired result was to make it harder for women to run away?

A friend sent me a note listing other foods believed to have psychoactive properties. Along with pure cacao chocalate was avacado, assorted nuts, etc.

Some items I couldn’t locate, but I packed up all I could find as lunch and road my motorcycle to this lovely park to dine alone under a large willow tree.

I am feeling quite euphoric to be honest. So maybe there’s something to it. Or, perhaps it’s just the fact I’m waking in the Springtime sunshine after a fancy lunch in a park along the lake among the willows. ;-)

I know people who work very hard all of the time. I mean ALL of the time. They set goals, budget their time, and spend their time and resources wisely. And, they all have such nice things to show for it. In a few years they’ll be all set to spend their last years in this life without a financial care in the world.

Me? I’m wasting time meandering around a lovely park nibbling on dark chocolate and thinking of opening a bottle of cheap red wine with no money and nothing to show for my time. What’s wrong with me?!

Maybe tomorrow I’ll wake from my careless slumber and make something of my life like all of those “winners” do. But for now I think I’ll take another stroll along the shoreline and see if I might find a suitable skipping stone.
