ME | Tech

http://www.ro.me/tech/ "3 Dreams of Black" is an interactive film by Chris Milk and some friends at Google that showcases the creative potential of WebGL. WebGL is a context of the HTML5 canvas element that enables hardware-accelerated 3D graphics in the web browser without a plug-in. In other words, it enables your browser to show some really beautiful visuals. On this page, you'll find a WebGL model viewer featuring several of the "3 Dreams of Black" creatures. You'll also find 8 demos created by our development team, a link to the code base, and some links to resources on the web that will be useful for getting started in WebGL programming. Ready to get the entire code base?

Pic: Real Life Dead Pixel - PSFK

A small 82cmx82cm square of dirt has been created to represent a “dead pixel” in Google Earth by artist Helmut Smits . He burned out the square from a patch of grass, which would look like a non-functioning pixel at a vertical distance of 1km.

Holography without Lasers: Hand-drawn Holograms [SCIENCE HOBBYIST]

Depending on the tilt of the plate with respect to the sun, you might accidentally discover the "pseudoscopic" image of the "V," and it may appear to float *above* the surface of the plastic. Tilt the plate to bring the far edge up and towards you and you'll then find the "orthoscopic" image floating deep within the plate. If you had inscribed your entire name on the plastic, you'd now be seeing it down there within the surface. http://amasci.com/amateur/holo1.html

Papercraft Self Portrait - Art Portfolio for Eric Testroete

Papercraft Self Portrait - 2009 I made this as my costume for Halloween 2009. It was kind of inspired by big-head mode seen in videogames. I really wanted to get the faceted geosphere look with wireframe.

Photosynth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynth Photosynth is a software application from Microsoft Live Labs and the University of Washington that analyzes digital photographs and generates a three-dimensional model of the photos and a point cloud of a photographed object. [ 1 ] Pattern recognition components compare portions of images to create points, which are then compared to convert the image into a model. Users are able to view and generate their own models using a software tool available for download at the Photosynth website. [ edit ] History Photosynth is based on Photo Tourism, a research project by University of Washington graduate student Noah Snavely. [ 2 ] Shortly after Microsoft's acquisition of Seadragon in early 2006, that team began work on Photosynth, under the direction of Seadragon founder Blaise Aguera y Arcas . [ 3 ]

Invisible Cities | Brain Pickings

In December, the now-infamous map of Facebook friendships revealed an uncanny cartography of the world depicted purely through social relationships data. Now, a project by Christian Marc Schmidt and Liangjie Xia is taking the concept ambitiously further: Invisible Cities is a transmedia mapping project, displaying geocoded activity from social networks like Twitter and Flickr within the context of an actual urban map — a visceral, literal embodiment of something VURB ‘s Ben Cerveny has called “the city as a platform,” the idea that cities are informational media and living computational systems for urban society. By revealing the social networks present within the urban environment, Invisible Cities describes a new kind of city — a city of the mind.”

Anatomy of a Mashup: Definitive Daft Punk visualised

Loaded 16% of sound data A mashup is a song created by blending two or more other songs. The more complex a mashup gets, the harder it is to distinguish the parts that are being used to create what you're hearing. This visualisation of the song "Definitive Daft Punk" by Cameron Adams dissects a mashup in realtime to show you how each of the 23 parts contributes to the greater whole.
