Just for Fun! Levelhead/ Frances A Yates, in her book The Art of Memory, traces a geneaology of memory systems, practiced as an art, from the ancient Greeks through to the late mediaeval period. In a time without printing and paper for taking notes, these memory arts were of vital importance, both to the recollection of cultural artefacts (prose, theory, philosophical treatises) and practical tasks involving the storing of patterned information (numbers, names, dates).

Of the many earliest methods used was the construction of imaginary architectures (memory loci) that were designed to specification precisely for the purpose of storing information such that it could be retrieved by 'walking through' the building in the mind. So it follows that the relationships between objects of memory were configured as being spatially associative, with the walking imaginary self acting as a reader. Several people have written suggesting that I make a version of levelHead with LCD screens.

Download the latest beta releases A Slower Speed of Light is a first-person game prototype in which players navigate a 3D space while picking up orbs that reduce the speed of light in increments. Custom-built, open-source relativistic graphics code allows the speed of light in the game to approach the player’s own maximum walking speed. Visual effects of special relativity gradually become apparent to the player, increasing the challenge of gameplay. Download our PowerPoint presentation about the relativistic effects in the game: PPT PPTX OpenRelativity A Slower Speed of Light was created using OpenRelativity, an open-source toolkit for the Unity game development environment.

Requirements A Slower Speed of Light has been tested on computers with the configurations listed below. Intel Core 2 Duo T9900 or Core i7 (2.8GHz clock speed)Windows 7, Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) or higher, and Linux (Ubuntu 13)AMD Radeon HD 6970M/AMD Mobility Radeon HD 4850/Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT8GB RAM Posters.
