Minecraft Storehouse: visual storytelling AP Interactive visualizes a future of stories that reach beyond text Over the past two years, the Associated Press has nearly doubled the number of interactive graphics it produces each month, jumping from 40 in 2009 to over 70 so far in 2011. On the surface, that increase is logical almost to the point of being unsurprising: The AP, after all, makes a lot of stuff that serves a lot of clients, and the demand for interactives is growing. But while the AP’s Interactive department is pumping out a steady amount of work, it’s what they’re creating — and how they’re creating it — that’s really interesting: from data visualizations to mash-ups of video, maps, and animation that can jump from website to phone to (soon enough) tablet. Often, they’re creating those features against the backdrop of breaking news. Data visualization is “going through a kind of renaissance in journalism,” said Shazna Nessa, director of Interactive for the AP. “It’s integral to everything we do,” Nessa said of the team’s reliance on programmers.

The Dark Side of Barbie Photographer Mariel Clayton explorers the evil and hitherto unknown side of the famous doll character. When asked why she did it, Clayton explains: ‘Because I hate Barbie. I intensely dislike the stereotype that the “ideal” female fits no current authentic female form. You can’t get to be Barbie without an ocean’s worth of peroxide, 27 plastic surgeries and a complete lack of intelligence, so it irritates me immensely that this is the toy of choice women give to their daughters to emulate.

Enviar olores por Whatsapp será posible en 2016 con oPhone La tecnología y olor no parecen conceptos llamados a entenderse. Más bien solemos relacionar la tecnología con algo aséptico, frío, neutro. Hasta que ha llegado oPhone, un dispositivo que permite enviar mensajes con olor a través del teléfono móvil o la tableta. Qué pensaría si le llegara una foto al WhatsApp con las lentejas que le ha preparado su madre y que pudiera olerlas; o enviar por correo la imagen del ramo de flores que le ha comprado a su mujer junto con su aroma; o ver en su teléfono una foto de su pequeña hija y percibir su olor a niña recién bañada. Todo esto es posible ya con oPhone, un proyecto en cuyo desarrollo trabaja la empresa marbellí Kibo Studios y que pretende superar las barreras tecnológicas y permitir la comunicación sensitiva a distancia. La labor de Kibo Studios, que comparte inversores con oPhone, radica ahora, según Linares, en "proponer, aportar, sugerir e investigar" para elaborar nuevas ideas de negocio y desarrollar aplicaciones entorno a este invento.

Google Pacman When I was growing up, my dad had the best job I could possibly imagine: he was an arcade game and pinball technician. For me, that meant summer trips through Poland’s coastal cities with their seasonal arcade parlors; peeking inside cabinets to learn programming and engineering secrets; and—of course—free games! One of my favorites was PAC-MAN, whose popularity transcended the geopolitical barriers of that time. Today, on PAC-MAN’s 30th birthday, you can rediscover some of your 8-bit memories—or meet PAC-MAN for the first time—through our first-ever playable Google doodle. PAC-MAN™ & ©1980 NAMCO BANDAI Games Inc. PAC-MAN seems like a natural fit for the Google homepage.

Entrenamientos virtuales de fútbol bastante realistas para rehabilitación y mejora Por @Alvy — 31 de Octubre de 2018 Los británicos de Mi Hiepa Sports llevan tiempo perfeccionando un sistema de realidad virtual para entrenamiento futbolístico del que los vídeos tienen muy buen aspecto; sólo faltaría probarlo a ver las sensaciones. Se trata de unas gafas VR y dos botas llenas de sensores de movimiento en los pies del jugador. El invento tiene buena pinta porque parece que las reacciones son buenas y rápidas –aunque es sólo un vídeo– y también teniendo en cuenta que no se trata de un entrenamiento físico sino más bien mental y de reacción. Lo más divertido es sin duda la gran variedad de juegos y entrenamientos posibles, con escenarios bastante realistas y máquinas lanzadores de balones infinitas en plan Guitar Hero, pruebas para mejorar el tiempo de reacción, la orientación y el entrenamiento estratégico.
