![]() I had some experiences with invocations of the Elementals as at that time that was my capability in all honesty. PAA: Are you able to share anything from your work in the second and third book? Such as experiences in mental wondering? First Evocation etc. That was a eureka moment for me, and I thought…’’Oh, so that’s it!’’ It’s a world away from my previous controlled fantasizing. I did exactly that, until one day there was an actual audible click at the base of my skull and an apparently complete disengagement from normal consciousness. I tend to think students mistake vivid mental impressions with actual experiences in spiritual realms and that can lead to delusion. Another challenge is distinguishing mere vivid imagination with actual ‘mental wandering’. The most challenging aspect for me personally was inertia. Was there any specific step that took longer for you than others? PAA: What challenges did you face during your training in IIH/ PME/KTQ. Even niggling muscular tensions as you sit in meditation may be locked in emotional traumas and the like. In fact the way your visualizations go can quickly indicate psychological complexes that are blocking the free flow of elemental energies. The development of character is also important but overlooked by those wanting quick results. The key of it all is sustained, gentle effort. PAA: What in your opinion are the crucial steps of IIH that ensure success and did you follow IIH by the book or did you go your own way with it? As alchemy texts say yet again, alchemy is child’s play! ![]() ![]() Yet don’t be rigid and tense in the visualization, relax into it, enjoy it. The imagination /mind is like Mercury, but the passion and sustained discipline is like sulfur that fixes the image so it becomes crystallized, salt. Sustaining a concentrated image is hard work, and to make it real is even harder. I think the alchemists speak of this in terms of fixing the volatile. I expect most people say this, but stick with it. What advice would you give to help students pass these steps? PAA: Many have problems with the early steps like VOM in step 1 and the visualizationĮxercises in step 2 (These are exercises in the first manual of Franz Bardon ‘Initiation into Hermetics’ often called IIH). I quickly realized that this was a logical system with definite goals and devoid of obscuration of method. Back then Bardon was not very well known and I ordered his books from an advertisement I found in an astrology magazine of all places. I found Bardon in my early twenties after having gone the usual route …you know…Dion Fortune, Israel Regardie, Crowley and the usual resources available in the 1990s. Well I’m Jason Read, and I expect a few people know me through my work in Chinese folk magic rather than Hermetic endeavors. PAA: Please introduce yourself and let us know how you found the teachings of Franz Bardon.įraternal greetings. Be sure to visit Jason’s blog after reading the interview. I hope that as more information comes out about his books we can do another update, but for now we have his insight on some questions I raised primarily focusing on Bardons work, for the Taoist segment of this interview scroll down to read about the training Jason received. ![]() Today we have an interview with Jason Read, someone who has undertaken a very interesting course of study in Asia, he is a student of Franz Bardons work and the author of what I think will be some very interesting books on hard to find subjects within Taoist Magic, due to be released in the coming years.

Users already running 2.x can use the “Check For Updates” menu item within the app to download and install the new version, or grab the latest version from the PowerPhotos web page. PowerPhotos 2.3 is a free update, and requires macOS 12 Monterey or later. PowerPhotos conversion and copying works slightly differently from the old Photos migration in a few ways, which you can read more about in the PowerPhotos documentation. If you have purchased a PowerPhotos license, then you can also copy individual photos and albums directly to another Photos library, or merge the iPhoto/Aperture library with a Photos library as well. Once added, there is a simple “Convert” button that will do a straight conversion of the library to a new Photos library, and is available even to users without a PowerPhotos license. So in PowerPhotos 2.3, you can simply add an iPhoto or Aperture library to your library list by dragging it it from the Finder. ![]() ![]() Once I had that working though, I realized that I could just ship it that way as a feature instead! This led me to allow adding an iPhoto library directly to the PowerPhotos library list so I could use the PowerPhotos photo browser to view the contents of the library. I initially assumed I would just have a single command that would let you choose an iPhoto library and convert it, but in the process of writing and debugging this new code I wanted to be able to see what was going on so I could make sure PowerPhotos was reading everything correctly. PowerPhotos allows you to break up your Photos.app images among multiple Photos libraries, rather than having to store all of them in one giant library. You can use the Photos “Import” command to import the contents of the iPhoto/Aperture library, but this loses all the album organization, photo metadata, and edits that were performed in that library.Īfter receiving a number of support emails on the topic, one day it dawned on me that I already had code that could read the contents of iPhoto and Aperture libraries: iPhoto Library Manager! So, I dug up the library reading code from iPLM, got it compiling on the latest version of macOS and Apple Silicon, and wrote a layer that would translate the data from iPLM’s data model to PowerPhotos. Trying to migrate a library now just displays an error message saying you need to find a machine with macOS Monterey or earlier to perform the migration. However, with the release of macOS 13 Ventura in 2022, Apple dropped support for this migration process. PowerPhotos included its own migration assistant that would help with migrating multiple libraries, but still left the process of migrating each library to the Photos app itself. I'm thinking a few approaches are possible, but who here would know which one to take?ġ- Convert iPhoto Library to Photos Library and find an app that can merge + de-duplicate two Photos Libraries.Ģ- Find an app that can merge + de-duplicate an iPhoto Library and a Photos Library into one Photos Library.I released PowerPhotos 2.3 today, which adds a feature that fills a hole for folks who have old iPhoto or Aperture libraries they want to bring over to Photos.Īpple released Photos as a replacement for iPhoto and Aperture back in 2015, and included a “migration” feature that would let people move their old iPhoto or Aperture library to Photos and preserve most of the library data such as album organization, photo metadata, and edits along with the photos themselves. Is there anything you could offer as advice for accomplishing this, as it has been a very long task (took something like 6 hours to combine three iPhoto Libraries which were all on 3 different computers, to boot :) ) I know that my friend has new images on the Photos Library that aren't on the iPhoto Library - so I can't just ditch the Photos Library and do a one-way import.ĭoes anyone know which app would currently allow for this? I mean, I just used iPhoto Library Manager to merge three iPhoto Libraries on 3 separate machines into one, and now it seems there's only one hurdle (mash together iPhoto & Photos Libraries) before I can deliver the images to her iCloud Photos. ![]() I'm working on merging a 11000+ image iPhoto Library with a Photos Library - with the purpose of pushing it to iCloud Photos. If you dream of a gold ring, then get ready to welcome the news out there. ![]() This dream is a symbol of incompatibility, but you need to pay attention so as not to make others hurt. The dream meaning of giving a wedding ring to someone signifies your love for someone might not be suitable. Another meaning for this dream is that you have to be careful with the path you take, don’t let other people get in the way of your plan. Therefore, saving money is very important in the future so that you can avoid many financial problems. You never know what might happen in the future. The dream meaning of buying a wedding ring can mean you have to be more careful with your money. If you dream of seeing a wedding ring on a friend’s finger, this dream symbolizes departure, because this dream shows an extraordinary moment on the journey. The dream meaning of a wedding ring on someone’s finger in your family, this dream can show that the person who appears in a dream needs help to review some aspects of his life. The future will come for you with some changes that may seem scary at first, but you will find that this is very good. When you dream of seeing a ring on someone else’s finger, it’s good to get ready, because there are good things out there. ![]() ![]() A dream about a ring on a finger also means someone close to you will get married soon. However, this dream might not have anything to do with it. It signifies that you will know someone who can be the greatest love in your life. But if at this time you hope to make a more serious commitment, the dream is a good sign. When you dream of seeing a wedding ring on your finger, that doesn’t mean you will get married soon. ![]() Perhaps you'll be forced to fight a difficult foe with more meager resources than you normally would have. By limiting the player's ability to rely on their autopilot memory, the focus turns instead to quick adaptation and problem solving.ĭeep knowledge of the base game is still useful in a randomizer, though, even if it's just to help you figure out what new avenues may be open with each new item you find. They test the player's skill and knowledge of the game instead of simply the muscle memory gained from years of experience. Randomizers add near-infinite replayability to tired-old games, with fresh challenges for players to overcome with each playthrough. There is a very real chance that Link's uncle could give you the high-jump boots that allow Samus to then go claim the Master Sword somewhere deep in Norfair. In the Super Metroid x Link to the Past Randomizer mod, you use special randomized doorways to navigate between the worlds of Hyrule and Zebes, collecting items in one to help you progress further in the other. One of the more extreme randomizers out there actually combines two games in a way that makes you have to beat both over the course of a single playthrough. ![]() Others completely alter the way the game is played. Some retain the title's intended structure but change the rewards and items you find on your journey. The list is still updated weekly with new titles, so if your favorite isn't listed yet, it may be soon.ĭifferent randomizer mods allow for different levels of randomization, but the idea of mixing up locations of items or discovered skills and abilities is rather standard. The "BIG List of Video Game Randomizers" website, started back in 2016, now lists hundreds of randomization mods for games from Metroid Prime, Golden Sun, and Earthbound to Faxanadu, Adventure Island, and Doom. What started as a small niche has now evolved into its own retrogaming genre. And you can go even further than that, changing the exit locations for various in-game doors or even scattering the boss keys for specific dungeons throughout the world (rather than in the dungeons themselves)! So The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past Randomizer could change which items you find in which chests, alter the rewards from dungeon quests, and even replace Link's sprite for one of the numerous fan-created options (the Mega Man X sprite is a personal favorite). That calming intimacy makes games like these an easy nostalgic choice when you just want to take a load off.īut what if you want to add some spice back to that familiar experience? After playing a classic game to the point of memorization, how do you recapture the sense of adventure and discovery you experienced the first time you played it? A small but growing community in the retro emulation scene is aiming to answer those questions with a class of mods and hacks called "randomizers." Shuffle up and dealĪt their most basic level, randomizer mods shuffle the data in a game's ROM so that each run becomes a new and unpredictable experience. ![]() There's a sense of ease knowing what lies inside each treasure chest, which bush an enemy will spring from, or the secret tactic that vanquishes a foe with ease. Like a long-time partner or a favorite pair of socks, there's comfort to be found in revisiting a familiar game from your youth. ![]() But more importantly, I needed to get a single meerkat between me and the setting sun. Without dust the sun would never turn yellow and red and would just be a white circle in the frame. To get the shot, the conditions needed to be just right: a clear day with a lot of wind so that there was a lot of dust in the air. “When I was photographing meerkats in Botswana, I wanted to create a shot that I had never seen before of these little critters – a silhouetted meerkat against a great ball of fire, the setting sun.

In the upper right corner, tap the current location.In the menu in the upper left corner, tap Map.Identify photo opportunities of, e.g., full moon, crescent moon, visible milky way.Īnd here's how to find the beginning and end for the blue hour for any location, date, and time with Sun Surveyor App:.Find the location of the sun and the moon using augmented reality.Moreover, Sun Surveyor App allows you to: Sun Surveyor will even tell you where the sun will be and in which direction the shadows will fall during the day, and if you enter the height of an object, it will even tell you how long the shadow will be. Using this feature, you can determine all the essential times like sunrise, blue hour, golden hour, and sunset for any geographic location in the future. This blue hour calculator is actually only a feature of Sun Surveyor App. Sun Surveyor App helps you to discover then the golden hour and the blue hour starts ![]() With that solution, you're able to set the time to anything in the future and select the location you plan to photograph. It's a great and simple way to determine the blue hour if you're already on site.īut if you want or need to plan ahead, there's another solution I prefer. From that widget, you can either launch ProCamera app in any mode, plus it displays the beginning and end of the blue hour. Check out my ProCamera App Review if you're curious about it. ProCamera App is an excellent camera app with tons of awesome features. ProCamera App Widget with Blue Hour timings While the ProCamera App widget is great for on-site use, Sun Surveyor is a great app for planning ahead. ![]() In this blog post, I'll review two blue hour calculators I regularly use: The ProCamera App widget and Sun Surveyor App. Those apps are called blue hour calculators. And while the blue hour may begin around 8 pm here in Vienna, Austria, it may start as late as 11 pm in northern cities like Helsinki, Finland.īut luckily for us photographers, developers came up with smart ideas to help you quickly find the beginning and end of the blue hour and golden hour. In 2007, I experienced a blue hour in Norway that lasted almost an entire day during the polar night. The duration of the blue hour depends on the time of the year and your geographic location. Trivia: How long is the golden hour, and when does it begin, and when does it end? If you answered "one hour" to the first question, I have to disappoint you.

You can use a device called an anemometer to measure the wind speed in your backyard over time-you could even make one yourself out of an old plastic Easter egg, once you've eaten the goodies inside. However, the map of wind resources depicts wind speeds at a height of 50 meters in the air-that's over 160 feet, or 16 stories! And generalizations often don't hold-the average wind speed will depend heavily on the specific conditions at your site. Department of Energy National Renewable Energy Laboratory As the map shows, the places with the greatest wind resources are typically in the Great Plains, along mountaintops and on the coasts. The DOE produces a map of the wind resources across the United States. To have a successful home wind operation, the average wind speed at your location should average at least nine miles per hour. (You can buy windmills as small as nine feet tall with blades spanning six feet, though most are sized more in the range of 60 feet tall with 23-foot blade diameters.) One new turbine creating buzz in the wind community is the Skystream 3.7, which is applauded for its size (10-foot blades), efficiency at low wind speeds (they can perform well with average annual wind speeds above 12 mph), and relatively low price ($15,000). In going through the checklist, it quickly becomes apparent why we don't all have windmills in our backyards, even though the technology is commercially available. ![]() ![]() Department of Energy (DOE) suggests a checklist to make sure small wind projects are a right choice for individual homeowners: Is there enough wind? Do you have enough space? Are towers allowed in your area? And finally, how much energy can you produce?
