Digital Knight

By Spoor, Ryk E.

Excerpt
Excerpt: Gone in a flash 1 I clicked on the japes icon. A second picture appeared on the ran-7x workstation screen next to the digitized original, said original being a pretty blurry picture of two men exchanging something. At first the two pictures looked identical, as always, but then rippling changes started: colors brightening and darkening, objects becoming so sharp as to look almost animated, a dozen things at once. I controlled the process with a mouse, pointing and clicking in places that were either doing very well or very poorly. Japes (jason's automatic photo enhancing system) was a specialized plug-in program module I'd designed, which combined many of the standard photographic enhancement techniques into a single complex operation controlled partly by me and partly by a learning expert system.
