This is a personal project that is truly amazing. This film is 100% ‘real’, but there are some new techniques for the author here, such as using time lapse to create the illusion of forward movement for the helicopter ocean scenes. These flight sequences would not be possible without the skill and patience of Chief Pilot Peter Yates. Thanks also to Trevor Cracknell (for getting wet!) and Family.

2-Year Old Laser Projection Designs
July 15th, 2008
The really cool part of this technology, is that normal light based projection methods need reflective surfaces to improve luminance of the image, and rear light projection systems degrades over the life of the tube or device. These “new” technologies provide some interesting solutions to the old multiple screen displays, without loosing quality, and in fact: improving quality over any uneven surface. I look forward to the day when these devices were more consumer level, and from what one of these two videos suggest, they will hit the market in 18 months (2 years ago) at prices comparable or of not better than the current plasma or LCD technologies and for sizes generally larger. Doesn’t look like these products have hit the market… very, VERY interested in utilizing one of these types of projectors. It would ROCK the world we live in. Imagine being able to project a full motion flash piece on a slightly frosted window, sidewalk or whole storefront, bus terminal, the passing traffic… and it looking totally awesome! Man it would be fun an amazing canvas to paint on. Just wish i could find a way to get access to one that was mobile… man that would be fun.

Revisiting Site Relational Graphs
June 24th, 2008
Presidential Watch 08 website has a very interesting map of the relationship of a bunch of politcal bLog websites, and shows ALL of their relationship to eachother in the bLog-o-Sphere map. CLICK HERE to view.
It is would have been nice to be able to rotate and move nodes in the flash chart, that takes a while to load. Very, very kewl way to represent relationships, between sites. It wold be nice to be able to zoom in more easily as well… anyway – reminiscent of the GraphViz application ( see: 2007-02-08 ). In the meantime enjoy the idea.

The Coolest Use of Technology as Proof of Concept…
April 20th, 2007
Oh, a form of Real World social network data gathering and representation of social connections at a convention… interesting data gathering technique. Used in a convention – very cool use of the technology, question is, what kind of information was gleened.
