ARS Electronica

Posted By Peter Proulx

Hi all,
Dietmar Hager has asked me to help him promote the ARS Electronica Festival in Linz, Austria of which he is an organizer. It opens August 30 and runs through September 3 and features quite a bit of astronomy and astro-imaging. Especially for the Euro guys, hope you can attend and make it a success! Here is more info-

Ty, That looks super! Processing in PixInsight by any chance? It has the look of their HDRWT algorithim. Very nice!

M31 Mosaic

Well done Jim- a super undertaking! Good color, star color, detail. Really good work. One small comment- M110 is virtually colorless, it's generally quite golden like the big girl.

Hey 'Freak', I see you are an Astroart fan as I am. Have you seen the new version 5.0 revision? It's very powerful with several big improvements and additions. There are some nice free tutorials here as well http://www.ip4ap.com/soup2nuts.htm. This also covers MaxIm DL which I also use. I still prefer its Deconvolution over Astroart.

David, I notice you use Astroart. Have you seen the new version 5.0 revision? It's very powerful with several big improvements. There are some free tutorials here http://www.ip4ap.com/soup2nuts.htm. This also covers MaxIm DL which I use too.

Thanks, Pete P
