Many people love New York, but I love the World! |
- Like you, I attend conferences held at many different places in the world.
Like you, I learn about the places I visit. I have been interested in
those places because I used to hear about them from my shortwave radio
since my childhood.
Like you, I bring my camera with me and take photos. I have many photos taken with different cameras, and I would like to share them with you.
- Sergei Eisenstein was a creative Soviet-era film producer. We like to
think movie makers shoot the films according to the stories written by
others, like the "War and Peace" by Leo Tolstoy. Eisenstein had a
different idea. One should take films first, and then edit those to
construct a story.
Right, we do not think of stories when we take photos while travelling. We take them out of our impulses. However, we like to convey ideas when we organize them into albums. For instance, we like to list photos having to do with music into a music page, in order to brag about my music background. I hope you would enjoy my albums.

- Web albums are quite different from the conventional book albums. When
you show book albums to others, you can talk to them and explain to them
orally your purpose of placing those photos at appropriate places in the
album. Then they will gain a better understanding of your personality.
In the case of web albums, you are not there to explain to the viewers. They have to find out what you intend to tell them by looking at their computer screens. This is indeed a challenging problem. I am still struggling with this new problem.

I received my PhD degree from Princeton in 1961, seven years after high school graduation in 1954. This means that I did much of the ground work for the degree during my high school years.
