You've Never Heard of "Jumping Lines"? by taffy

You've Never Heard of "Jumping Lines"?

For fun, I did the random searches for the Album Cover Challenge ( http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/22809/let-s-begin-album-cover-challenge-32) and came up with the bizarre. For the band, Jumping LInes are defined as follows (I couldn't summarize as my mathematical knowledge failed me): In mathematics, a jumping line or exceptional line of a vector bundle over projective space is a projective line in projective space where the vector bundle has exceptional behavior, in other words the structure of its restriction to the line "jumps". Jumping lines were introduced by R. L. E. Schwarzenberger (1961). The jumping lines of a vector bundle form a proper closed subset of the Grassmannian of all lines of projective space."
Then, for the quote, I got:
"Television is more interesting than people. If it were not, we would have people standing in the corners of our rooms," by Alan Corenk
Both total 'ughs.' But then, walking around the deck and swing, I noticed a lot of lines. I took several photos, then played around cropping and flipping and creating a collage, then applying curved lines in picmonkey. Here's the result. It makes no sense, but then, it's just an album cover.
Is the title a six word story?
Very nicely done Taffy

Oh wow! This was a creative idea for the album cover challenge. You managed to go from "ugh" to imaginative. Cool album cover, and the nine-patch block gets bonus points from this quilter. fav

@joemuli Dyslexia is no fun in today's written society. I'm glad you are willing to plow through my writing! Sometimes I write too much though!
June 26th, 2014  
Fav! Thanks for the info!
June 26th, 2014  
So creative, very cool album cover!

Wonderfully done.

Love the concept Taffy, it made me smile. I agree with you about Dyslexia. I've just written a letter to the courts as one of my trainees has had to drop out of the course having failed her skills test again. Her father has brought a case against the dept as at her first attempt they did not give her the extra 25% she should have had. When she took it again they'd changed the spelling part from ,which of these four is correct to spell this word! The school training her said that her class had become her detectives and as a result were much better spellers. I've just written an online course to train primary teachers and as part of it have got them to look at a video of a head who hated school but has used handwriting as a way to help all kids, but especially SNs

Great combo! You lost me after mathematical!

@ceilidh It sounds like important information for teachers -- there is a lot of misunderstanding when it comes to how to support students with dyslexia.
June 28th, 2014  
This is way cool. Love what you did to create it and it makes an awesome album cover. Great title too. FAV
