ART UPDATE: PRINTING WITH LIGHT ACTIVATED DYES

I've been experimenting with light activated dyes for a couple of weeks. It's been an interesting experience. The dyes react with UV light, and so different printing techniques can be applied. It's an interesting medium for me to work with, as both a photographer and a textile artist, I get to print on both paper and fabric. Here are some of the results from my experiments.

I painted the dye onto silk. I created folds and placed it under some lace and exposed it to light. It created this interesting mosaic effect.

THE SPIRIT SAID “GOD SPOKE TO ME” – EVP January 15, 2020

During the trip to Niagara Falls, we stayed at the Seneca Resort and Casino. Normally I would not choose to stay in a hotel that has a casino, but I was using loyalty points to pay for it, and it was a great deal. It turned out that they offered free buffet tickets to its hotel guests.

It was very noisy in the buffet a lunch time, but at the same time, I got some really loud and clear EVP. That's the thing about EVP, it's a bit tricky to predict how well an EVP will turn out . . .

THEY MOVED THE CLOUDS FOR ME – EVP January 15, 2020

Our hotel was walking distance from Niagara Falls, so we walked to Prospect Point, the only spot where you can see both the American Falls and the Horseshoe Falls at the same time. It was cloudy, windy, and very cold. I recorded EVP as I took photos.

I got some good clips, but you can hear the wind and the water in the background. I tested  the clips on my laptop speakers, they are audible, but some are better with headphones. The clips are repeated on loop.

As we walked along the river towards the falls, it was very cold . . .

IT SOUNDED LIKE A TALKING SWAN – EVP September 29, 2019

On the morning of the last day in Reykjavik, my mother and I decided to take a walk in the nearby area around the hotel, have lunch, and then head to the airport with the group. We walked to the city hall, and ran into two people from our group. Somehow during the walk, I lost track of my mother, as I was busy taking photos. She was busy in conversation with the other people. Behind the city hall, there is a small lake with ducks and swans. There were walking paths along each side of thehe lake. I couldn . . .

SPIRITS REACT TO PRINCE ON THE AIRPLANE – EVP September 29, 2019

On my previous trips, I have observed through EVP, that spirits do travel by airplane. Spirits are everywhere, and airports are no exception. The spirit world exists as a layer overlaying our reality. There are occurrences where the spirit world bleeds through into ours. That is when we get to see ghostly phenomenon, but this is just a small fraction of what is going on over thee on the other side. Spirits are just like us, they desire to travel and see new places, perhaps places they never got to visit when they were "alive".

I WAS SCARED, AND SPIRITS HELPED ME – EVP September 25, 2019

During a day trip to the South Coast in Iceland, they took us to Seljalandsfoss Waterfall. This is a waterfall that you can go behind the water, because it was a cavern. I was prepared that I would get wet, but what I was not prepared for, was the level of physical exertion. There is a staircase that leads up to the cavern;s opening, but from there on, there are rocks to climb. Going down was ok, but the exit was a steep climb up some wet, slippery rocks. I was by myself, as my group didn't want . . .

SPIRITS REACT TO THE NORTHERN LIGHTS – EVP September 27, 2019

As I had mentioned in my previous post, I got to see the Northern Lights in Iceland on the first night of my trip. I decided to book an additional tour  just for seeing the lights. I had heard from tour guides that Thursday night was going to be really good.

That night, they took us to two spots, until we finally settled in at a spot at Blue Mountain. I could see the  lights from the bus window. When we got off the bus, the lights were so huge. It was right on top of us. You could see . . .
