Photo/Film – The Louie

For many years I've enjoyed creating timelapses. The earliest i still have is from Dreamhack 2002. Since then there I've takes a lot more timelapses, mainly sunsets and stars. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4PJjDDDmT3s Dreamhack 2002 The 2002 Dreamhack one used my parents old VHS camcorder as a video device connected to an old dual pentium 200. After that I've used my Canon EOS 40D with a adapter to use power from the wall instead of battery. Now I mainly use my Canon EOS 5D with Magic Lantern or [...]

A small experiment with distorting jpeg-images with Javascript in the browser. You can test it here: https://louie.se/dumpster/misc/jpeg-distort/And find the code here: https://github.com/the-louie/jpeg-distort Mostly simple pixel manipulation, like scrolling and skewing, but also a function to introduce random byte-errors in the compressed jpeg-data itself to get some unpredictable but nice effects.

Back in the olden days, before instagram, twitter and facebook was a thing I wanted a way to share photos from lanparties I and others attended. The start The first couple of versions was based on Menalto Gallery (now known as Gallery the Revival). It was a PHP based content management system for images. It supported multiple users, groups and a lot of things that was perfect for our new site. Screenshot from 2007-03-02 Thanks to the already established sister-site lana.nu and it's calendar of [...]

I have a FLIR ONE infrared camera that attaches to my phone. When I just got it I took it for a test and went out in the pitch black forest behind the house. And I was not alone. https://www.youtube.com/embed/DWdGXn6yoNE [...]

After the success with Illusions we started thinking of a new project, we wanted something more like a short film with a script and characters. It took several lunches before we came to the conclusion that we needed small animals that were easy to control, and didn't run away as soon as we started to film. The only animal that fitted that and that we could get hold of was snails. Hanes photographing The Real World while we're bringing some of it back in buckets So, off to my girlfriends parents [...]

There're was quite a lot questions about how the effects in Illusions was created. Some guessed that we created a new flow-dynamics algorithm others had even stranger ideas. So here's a quick post about the process that finally led us to the effects in the video. First, it's all real fluids that anyone has in the fridge, into ordinary cold water. Hanes looking at some of the footage while shooting in my kitchen. It all started with that we (that's me and Hannes) saw some videos of ink in water [...]

Just before DreamHack Summer 2011 Hannes "Hanes" Rahm and I sat down and talked about that it would be cool to actually submit something for the Wild-competition at DH which only was two weeks away. After a couple of hours brainstorm and research on Internet we had an idea, and Illusions is the result. This was the first Wild/Animation entry released at DreamHack by me and Hanes. Released under the group Zink-Interactive who by placing first both in 64-bit demo and combined demo previously [...]

I've attended all main Dreamhack events in some capacity (participant, crew, sponsor) since 1997. The first couple of years as a normal participant, starting in Borlänge and later in my home town Jönköping. When Dreamhack moved to Jönköping me and a friend got an idea of setting up webcams and streaming the buildup and event for everyone to see. This was well before Twitch or any other platform that made it easy to stream your own video so we had to invent most of it ourself, and use equipment we [...]
