Global Dust Storms Threaten Mars Rovers

Will global dust storms terminate the robotic Martian rovers? Over the past month, windy dust storms have blocked much needed sunlight from reaching the solar panels of both the Spirit and Opportunity rovers exploring Mars. At times, as much as 99 percent of sunlight has been obscured, causing worry that the batteries might run out of energy before the storms end -- which may be as long as weeks. In an effort to weather these storms, Earth controllers have programmed the rovers to restrict movements and to use as little power as possible. Although the rovers have been working for a remarkable three years past their planned three month lifetimes, their immediate future is now uncertain. Pictured above, the Opportunity rover perched on the edge of Victoria Crater peered for a month into the distance as dust made the Martian air increasingly opaque. Via APDA.

James White is the creator of Forge, an art generating program he built to aid him in creating works where most elements are out of his control and random. The program forces him to allow elements to react unto themselves and experiment with massive layering of the generated outputs. Flowers, geometric shapes, and crazy architecture are some of the elements he uses.

See samples of this and other traditional and digital art he has developed in his art gallery here.

Containing over 100 pages of selected pieces from his personal portfolio accumulated over the last 8 years. Filled with sketches, character design, illustration, digital fine art, logo work and posters. Selected as Blurb's Book of the Week.

In addition, the cool Generator.x Flickr Pool is a wonderful sight to see, filled with many digital 2D/3D abstract imagery, reminiscent of fractal design programs that I always had fun playing with.
