In a way, this is a form of ‘image recycling,’ because I had too many pictures that work better in a square format than in the rectangular one intended for the frames.
The cube is an original creation derived from another project. The cube has an edge length of 8 cm; the images are 7x7 cm.
The images are interchangeable and slide into the corner posts via a sort of tongue-and-groove slot system, and the fitted lid (bottom in this version) secures everything in place…
All that’s missing now is a suitable lamp mount—and perhaps an automatic rotation mechanism…
A heretic question. Wouldn’t you get better results just backlighting a conventional black and white print? Granted, when you turn off the light your pornographic interior decoration turns innocent white.
Which made me think about digital picture frames. There are e-ink or e-paper ones, like the display on an e-book reader (kindle). Those might not look too bad and you could decorate your home with sleazy images and load tasteful art instead, when you have guests.
I think it would be doable, but more difficult, because you have fewer gradations available for the contrast.
With the light-based method, each layer essentially creates a new shade of gray. In the light version, that amounts to about 50 distinct levels; whereas if you work purely with colors, you have 3—4 at most.
No, I meant just backlighting a black and white image. On paper. Find the right psper, put it behind acrylic glas. Maybe slightly sanded acrylic glas, with the sanded side towards the paper.
We had an idea for a weekly contest prize! Since Fansly gift subscriptions are not very popular, we thought we’d do something special for our fans.
We could make a list of things we should do, and the winner or winners can choose which one they like best! After he makes his selection, we’ll get it done at a prime time in the next few days!
