oh yeah

working my way through this book, and bought two others in a totally different language I'm simultaneously learning (actually the one that I'm  simultaneously learning was the basis for this programme). Each book is about 400 to 800 pages but I"ve been chugging through. It's a lot of fun. One of the exercises was to take an image that was essentially not a real image, but a series of data (the image is stored in terms of its brightness) and take out one of the individuals/ faces from the image, and then apply noise to it.
Booyah. Done. LOL.
