[foocamp06] Posing for Google Earth
The Google Earth camera plane is going to be flying over the O’Reilly campus at noon today, shooting at a resolution of two inches (i.e., 1 pixel = 2 inches). As someone said last night when this was announced, “Brush your teeth.”
So, there’s discussion of what to do for the plane when it passes. Here are a few ideas:
1. Reenact a scene from Hieronymus Bosch, although we may not have enough time to make the pig demon heads.(This is a real chance to get in touch with the bottom up grassroots, so to speak.)
2. Create a street scene lying down so the image will look like it was shot from street level, rather than top down.
3. Create a high res photo using two-inch squares of gray tones. [Tags: foocamp06 google_earth]
