Build a Silent, Standalone XBMC Media Center On the Cheap - Feat. How to Wire Your House With Cat-5 (or 6) For Ethernet Networking. There are certain design considerations that need to be addressed based on your needs.
I'll discuss this before materials because these questions will affect quantities, tools and materials needed. 1. Which room/s do I want wired? - I have a 2 bedroom condo so I knew I wanted both bedrooms wired. I also have a TV alcove where my cable TV is so that seemed like a good location to wire as well for things like video game consoles. 2. . - With a multiple game consoles and network enabled Blu-Ray player connected to my TV, I knew I wanted at least 3 connections behind my TV. 3. . - For me the logical location was my laundry room. 4. . - This is probably the most difficult consideration. 5. . - This will mainly play a part in what kind of switch to get. 10mbps is still faster than most everyones home internet connection, so if you are just surfing a 10 megabit switch will suffice just fine.
Next up, tools and materials! Kenji Kojima / RGB MusicLab. RGB Experimental Music Laboratory / MacOSX and Windows Version RGB実験音楽研究所 / MacOSX版 Windows版 This application was put together Kenji Kojima's RGB Music Project studies.
RGB Music Project is a composite artwork of visuals, music and technologies that converts visual data into a music in attempts to discover relation between visuals and musics. The project core is the development of software RGB MusicLab. RGB MusicLab converts RGB (Red, Green and Blue) value of an image and surface points (X, Y, Z) of 3D object to chromatic scale sounds. The program reads RGB value of pixels from the top left to the bottom right of an image. One pixel makes a harmony of three note of RGB value, and the length of note is determined by brightness of the pixel. It is not an impression of a painting or a photograph of a musical variation. You can use a music which is created by RGB MusicLab freely. このプログラムは、小島健治のRGBカラーを使ったアートワークのスタディを、ひとつのアプリケーションに纏めたものです。

Inspired by Roku’s awesome Netflix video download box and impressed with Boxee’s free A/V media center platform, it was merely a matter of time before I’d create the “Boxee Box,” an Ubuntu-powered HTPC that I call my “one box to rule them all.”
Here’s how it’s done.In search of the ideal IP-STB About a year ago, I began a quest to find — or build — a sub-$500 IP-STB (Internet protocol set-top box) capable of delivering virtually unlimited A/V content to my entertainment center without monthly cable TV fees, service charges (other than an inexpensive Netflix membership), or pay-per-view fees.
Early in my journey, I heard that Roku was readying a $99 device (pictured at right) that would offer the joys of unlimited Netflix video downloads. I quickly procured a unit and published one of its first reviews. But its capabilities remain limited. No doubt everyone’s requirements for an IP-STB differ. In short, I’m after “One rockin’ box to rule them all!” Sizing up what’s out there. NetResView - View computers/network shares.
