The Panorama of Patagonia

I have put up a short Gigapan Review. The gigapan is a cool little machine that lets you make photos that are insanely huge. You can see the Insanely Huge size here share.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=22696

This is the same photography tech that was used on the Mars rover, and I was able to jam it into my backpack during my hike in southern Argentina. Panoramas on the web are always a tough thing to show and share. The default size is always short and wide, and it loses a lot of the effect. Then scrolling and moving about seems to take away a little bit too. I think a lot about how people consume digital media on the web, and I'm not sure there is a great way to show off a panorama just yet. I've used dozens of GUIs, and they all seem a little bit clunky.

As you can see, it was a beautiful and rough place. I can't believe I hiked for so long and didn't twist my ankle once. The late afternoons heading into sunsets always had these clouds that were darker than the sky, making it all extra moody.

Patagonia In Autumn Leaves Worlds within Worlds

Worlds Within Worlds from Martha Sue on Vimeo.

This animation was a part of gallery show called "Interior Landscapes" at the Lab in San Francisco. The show incorporated painting, fabric sculpture and installation, along with this animation. The imagery in this work is inspired by botany, internal organs, and the idea of worlds within worlds. A loose narrative springs from the confusion of scale; the idea of life existing within seeds, creating landscapes at levels so large or small that they are beyond our grasp. With every change in magnification, it seems like a new world is born.

The animation is a collaboration with Mark Edwards, Jeff Ray and Jim Coursey. I developed it in connection with the music, and we took several passes back and forth to find a balance between the two.

English Lyrics by Johnny Mercer and Music by Joseph Kosma

The falling leaves drift by my window
The falling leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sunburned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

(Instrumental for 1 minute)

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall


Patagonia in Autumn from Trey Ratcliff on Vimeo.

This is a short film I made while in Patagonia. It is a collection of things I found pretty and moving during 45 km of backpacking across the southernmost tip of Argentina. We were just a few glaciers away from Antarctica...it was rough and wild. I don't want to say anything more about it, but instead just let you enjoy it.

Approaching the Glacier after a Stormy Sunrise on Highway 7

Approaching the Glacier after a Stormy Sunrise, originally uploaded by Stuck in Customs.

We left while it was still dark to reach this spot by the morning. The glacier is already a deadly blue, but the morning light gets into the nooks and crannies and makes the blue reflect around like an argon laser.

It was really cold when I took this. And raining. And windy. I had a panoply of towels, rags, and other drying agents in various pockets, constantly wiping down the lens. I also had the sweet lady D3X inside of a clear plastic bag to protect it from the whipping rain.

Hey! I know that highway!

Every 30 minutes or so, I could hear an ungodly creaking and ripping of ice as another cleaved off into the water below. I understand if there was going to be a huge piece cleave off that the splash could actually make it all the way to me. I both wanted it to happen and didn't want it to happen at the same time. I think my indecision made it not happen.

Also -- interesting news? I am working on a little short film from Patagonia. It will be about 8 minutes long... I don't know when it will be done. It seems to be taking longer than expected! :)
