Francis Bacon (22 January 1561-9 April 1626)was an English philosopher,statesman,scientist,lawer,jurist and author.He was one of the pioneers of modern scientific thought.He developed and investigative method called Baconian method

The Baconian method consists of procedures for isolating the form nature,or cause of a phenomenon,including the method of agreement,method of difference,and method of concomitant variation.Bacon suggests that you draw up a list of all things in which the phenomenon you are trying to explain occurs, as well as a list of things in which it does not occur. Then you rank your lists according to the degree in which the phenomenon occurs in each one. Then you should be able to deduce what factors match the occurrence of the phenomenon in one list and don't occur in the other list,and also what factors change in accordance with the data had been ranked.Francis Bacon was a main influence in Eadweard Muybridge work.I think for this project it's quite relevant to appreciate this method by Bacon to deduce by elimination and general conclusion what is the cause underlying the phenomenon

Muybridge chalked lines and numbers on a board behind the track to measure progress. As Stanford's horse raced on the track, it tripped the wires and recorded 24 photographs that proved that all four of the horse's feet were off the ground at the same time.
Stanford won his bet, and Muybridge continued experimenting. During the early 1880s, he traveled to Paris to demonstrate his multiple camera system for other photographers and scientists. One of his hosts was Etienne Jules Marey, who was experimenting with the use of a single camera for recording images in motion.

Fluorescence Digital Imageing

Fluorescein Angiography(FFA):

angiography is the definition of a vessel or structure using a contrast medium. Contrast Medium (sodium fluorescein dye)is injected into a vein in the patients arms and timed photographs are taken using a fundus or SLO system.Fluorescein angiography is an important ophthalmic diagnostic test used to examine the blood vessels and associated structure of retina.It is used to diagnose sight threatening ophthalmic conditions and to locate areas that require treatment.

Images above are examples of right and left eye fluorescence Angiograms.1: 45 sec. 2: 1min.20sec.These are Angiograms of the ocular fundus.

The Ocular fundus is the inner lining of the eye made up of the retina and choroid.This angiograms shows the optic nerve,the retina vessels and the macular.it shows the optic nerve through which visual signals are transmitted to the brain and the retinal vessels which supply nutrotion and oxygen to the tissue set against the red-orange colour of the pigment epithelium,which also makes up the fundus.

The word Angiography comes from the Greek angeion, "vessel" and graphien, "to write or record". Angiography is the imaging of vessels, and the resulting pictures are angiograms. Angiography of the retina of the eye requires the injection of a small amount of dye into a vein in the patient's arm. The dye travels through the blood stream and is photographed using special cameras and colors of light as it travels through the vessels of retina.

Fluorescein Angiography is performed with a dye called Sodium Fluorescein. When illuminated with a blue light, the fluorescein dye glows or fluoresces in yellow-green. Special filters in the camera allow only the fluorescent yellow-green light to be photographed, producing high contrast images of the retinal vessels. Fluorescein angiography can be performed using either standard black and white photographic film or using digital cameras.The first time i did FFA I was absolutely amazed that how fast the dye circulates around the body. 5 to 8 seconds after the fluorescein has been injected I could start taking the photographs.

Indocyanine Green (ICG) dye is used in conjunction with infrared "light" for angiography in very special cases where fluorescein angiography proves inadequate. Because infrared energy is not in the visible spectrum and can not be imaged well with photographic film, high-sensitivity digital cameras are used for ICG angiography.

"NEW NASA IMAGES INDICATE OBJECT HITS JUPITER"

After the first tuturial with my lecture.I started to looking at diffrent planet and galaxy.the astronomical world and try to make some sort of connection If i could relate my imaginary planet which exsits to the astronomical world

I came a cross a video on Youtube and the photograph bellow are screen shot fro the video called "NEW NASA IMAGES INDICATE OBJECT HITS JUPITER"! The more I look at them the more similarity I can discover from

the planet

planet Eye and planet Jupiter

Stereomicroscopy - Stereomicroscopes have characteristics that are valuable in situations where three-dimensional observation and perception of depth and contrast is critical to the interpretation of specimen structure. These instruments are also essential when micromanipulation of the specimen is required in a large and comfortable working space. The wide field of view and variable magnification displayed by stereomicroscopes is also useful for construction of miniature industrial assemblies, or for biological research that requires careful manipulation of delicate and sensitive living organisms.

"Through the lens of a microscope or the shaft of a telescope exists a universe of life and beauty that is unknown to many" David Malin

http://www.davidmalin.com/

He uses the devices (microscope,telescope and so many other ways to explore the hidden world such as unseen electromagnetic radiation/X-Ray

I think his images are fascinating and full of endless details that delight the mind of anyone with an interest in the universe that is around and within us.

The five sense of sight,smell,taste and touch were long thought to be sufficient to deal with the external world.However If we accept that the evolution of senses is the result of the struggle for survival,there is an essential sixth sense-pain-which tells us about our internal enviournment.Indeed,there may yet be another sense:a feeling for the passage of time.It has always been there in the background reminding us our mortality,but nowadays seems to have assumed a daily presence.

I absolutly admire Marlin's work,the way he manages to visualize things that we are unable to appriciate the importance( and beauty) of actions that occur on very short and very time scale.

many of his images have been made with devices that were made specifically to extend the power of human eye and thus streach the human mind

What is Anaglyph?

Anaglyph is a picture that can be used to create a stereoscopic image.'Stereopsis' (originally) means solid sight and refers to the multitude of sources of information that may be used to determine the structure and layout of the three-dimensional world.A picture with diffrent colours can be presented to each eye because Anaglyph uses two colours with corresponding colour filters which is in practice red and green, or sometimes red and blue.

3D world!

We live in a 3D world , and we become aware a 3D world. However, how we actually achieve 3D vision is a mysterious psychological question. After all, we only have a 2D retina , so where does the extra dimension come from?

To be continued ....... more information will be add to this section....
