Apple / Green Peace

Better Home Planet
We love Apple. Apple knows more about "clean" design than anybody, right? So why do Macs, iPods, iBooks and the rest of their product range contain hazardous substances that other companies have abandoned? A cutting edge company shouldn't be cutting lives short by exposing children in China and India to dangerous chemicals. That's why we Apple fans need to demand a new, cool product: a greener Apple.

iPhone Story From 1997/ Inside Out



The Ideas Under Multi-Touch Screen
iPhone combines three products — a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching — into one small and lightweight handheld device. iPhone also introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. So it ushers in an era of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone.

The Wonderland Experience - psychedelic trance music movie shot in Goa India

Digital VJ Surrealism Point Of View / Modern John Coltrane Moods
This is an absolutely classic cult feature film shot in Southern India at the end of the 20th century.


Tagline: A boy, looking for his missing father in Southern India finds himself in a surreal and comic psychedelic world

Synopsis: During a trip to India to visit his father, a young man wakes up on a sun-drenched beach, unsure of where he is or how he got there. Before long he finds himself on an extraordinary journey meeting a series of ever more peculiar characters, in the search for his Dad. Eventually, riddled with confusion and haunted by recurring flashbacks of a party he can't remember, he heads into the jungle, where he's been told his father is waiting for him. Only one thing is certain: all is not what it seems.

The story is a gently surreal and comedic tale based loosely on Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll. The film was shot entirely in Goa, India, which with it's fantastic range of natural locations, provides a varied and continuously beautiful backdrop to the action.

The Wonderland Experience is an upbeat celebration of life, travelling and parties.

Written and produced by Andrew brown and directed by Ben Hardyment.

Carbon Footprint


CFI/ Saving The Earth
The following activities affect the carbon footprint of individuals, according to the various calculators available:


* Car travel: depends on distance driven, fuel efficiency, and number of passengers per vehicle.
* Air travel: depends on distance and number of flights. Take-off and landing use large amounts of fuel, so two short flights produce more carbon than one long flight of comparative distance.
* Other motorised transport such as bus or train: normally counts for less per person than either car or air travel.
* Electricity use, if provided by non-renewable resources. Some calculators ask for figures from utility bills, while others estimate the amount from size of household and usage patterns (such as whether you leave equipment on standby overnight).
* Home heating: depends on fuel source and amount used.
* Food miles: how much food you buy from non-local sources.
* Diet: meat-eater, vegetarian or vegan, conventionally farmed foods or organic produce.

America Freedom to Fascism

The Film / RFID

Determined to find the law that requires American citizens to pay income tax, producer Aaron Russo ("The Rose," "Trading Places") set out on a journey to find the evidence. This film which is neither left, nor right-wing is a startling examination of government. It exposes the systematic erosion of civil liberties in America since 1913 when the Federal Reserve system was fraudulently created. Through interviews with U.S. Congressmen, a former IRS Commissioner, former IRS and FBI agents and tax attorneys and authors, Russo connects the dots between money creation, federal income tax, and the national identity card which becomes law in May 2008. This ID card will use Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) chips which are essentially homing devices used to track people. This film shows in great detail and undeniable facts that America is moving headlong into a fascist police state. Wake up!

------

Dear Lovers of Liberty, the struggle is just beginning! Get ready...

Are you aware by May of 2008 the law will require you to carry a national identification card?

Are you aware that there are plans being developed to have all Americans embedded with a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) computer chip under their skin so they can be tracked wherever they go?

Are you aware the Supreme Court has ruled that the government has no authority to impose a direct unapportioned tax on the labor of the American people, and the 16th Amendment does not give the government that power?

Mario and Zelda Live

The Root Of The Game Music 101 In This Planet
As stated on The Mushroom Kindom (website):

The "Mario & Zelda Big Band Live" concert was held on September 14th, 2003, at the Nihon Seinenkan Hall in Tokyo, Japan. The DVD recording of this event was bundled with the Japanese gaming magazine "Nintendo Dream" vol. 101.

Mario & Zelda Big Band Live was, as the name suggests, live performances of Mario and Zelda music arranged into jazz, Latin, country, and bluegrass. The host, Ashura Benimaru Itoh, started off the concert with an awesome guitar arrangement of the Super Mario Bros. "main theme" and "underworld theme." The performances that followed were divided almost evenly between the Tokyo CubaBoys Jr. (The Big Band of Rogues) and Mr. Yoshihiro Arita (with his band).

Not included is "Mario Scat Version" (Super Mario Sunshine bonus level theme), which finally surfaces as track 4 on the M&ZBBL CD.

After every performance or two, the host talked to the guests a little bit, presumably about the music they just heard and the game it was from.

New Electric Concept Car Unveiled at The 2007 Detroit Auto Show

Save Global Dimming / Healing World
The concept car, called the Chevrolet Volt, is a battery-powered electric vehicle that uses a gas engine to create additional electricity, thereby extending its range.


The Volt can be fully charged by plugging it into a 110-volt outlet for approximately six hours each day. When the lithium-ion battery is fully charged, the Volt can deliver 40 city miles of pure electric vehicle range. When the battery is depleted, a one liter, three cylinder turbo charged engine spins at a constant speed, or revolutions per minute (rpm), to create electricity and replenish the battery.

The Chevrolet Volt is just the first of what General Motors is calling the "E-flex system." The Volt uses a large battery and a small one liter turbo gasoline engine to produce enough electricity to go up to 640 miles and provide triple-digit fuel economy. These multiple propulsion systems fit into a common chassis using electricity to help the world diversify energy sources. With this new E-flex concept, General Motors can produce electricity from gasoline, ethanol, bio-diesel, or hydrogen.

Produced for General Motors

iStep At Night /In Passing

Film by UK art collective The Light Surgeons.

This digital short was commissioned for the Bigger Picture project in conjunction with the BBC in Manchester, and shown on a public screen in the centre of the city.

The film explores the psycho-geography of the city through the experiences of a local woman who is partially blind. It was filmed in Manchester around the location of the public screen. it was created to be displayed on digital cameras and night vision security cameras. The film approaches documentary filming making from a unique angle, bringing together live action and animation to portray the city from the perspective of a person that has heightened senses from their lack of vision. The film comments on the issues surrounding disability, our judgement of other people in the city, and our common and shared understanding of public space.

short fact
The film was made to be viewed in a public place and for viewers there to make comment on it. We approached the visual production of the film after completing a short interview with Jo about how she experienced and navigated the city. The filming was done at night in central Manchester and followed different routes from the location of the public screen. The live action footage was hand traced frame by frame into moving illustration by a group of collaborating artists. The interview was transcribed and made into a typographic animation to reference the BBC New24 broadcast which is played on this public screen most nights to an audience which mostly consists of the homeless and the drunk.

iMona Lisa compilation

discover Secret story of Mona Lisa

Art investigator Giuseppe Pallanti made the discovery after poring over hundreds of ancient manuscripts.

Da Vinci experts now hope to locate her coffin so that they can examine the DNA of her remains.

Mr Pallanti made his announcement at a packed press conference in the Renaissance city of Florence, visited by thousands of British holidaymakers every year.

He said that documents showed that Lisa Gherardini - or Mona Lisa - is buried in the rundown ruins of the former Convent of St Orsula in the heart of the city.

Mr Pallanti said: "Her tomb is in there. I've pored through thousands of archive pages and I'm convinced the remains of Leonardo's model Lisa Gherardini are buried there."

He added that his research had wiped away all doubt about the identity of La Gioconda, as the Italians call the Mona Lisa, because of the surname of her husband, Giocondo.

Mr Pallanti explained: "It was her, Lisa, the wife of the merchant Francesco Del Giocondo - and she lived right opposite Leonardo in Via Ghibellina.''

Historians are certain that Lisa Gherardini was the model and records show that she married Francesco Del Giocondo in 1495 when she was 16 and he was 35.

The Story of Digital Art

Some Digital Theories Beyond The Growth Of Art
[Graffiti is a type of deliberate application of a media made by humans on any surface, both private and public - Wikipedia]

Digital art has, more or less, been relegated to the lower echelons of contemporary art scene by the gurus.

Following-up on submissions of my digital art portfolio to galleries, the three primary reasons I discovered for rejections were:

1. The programs are created for commercial artists - "It's not real art."

2. Digital art/graphics artists don't have the skills of painters, etc.- "Anyone can create art on a computer."

3. Digital art is not tangible - "It is just temporary electronic images".

-by George Glasser


Art is a result of human creativity which has some perceived quality beyond its usefulness, usually on the basis of aesthetic value or emotional impact. the modern use of the word "art", which rose to prominence after 1750, even conceptual art could be loved without materials, once the photography have been invented in 1839, some writers wasted 150 years to deny it is a great art tool, since motion pictures unveiled in 1860..... Philosopher David Novitz has argued that disagreement about the definition of art, are rarely the heart of the problem, rather that “the passionate concerns and interests that humans vest in their social life” are “so much a part of all classificatory disputes about art” (Novitz, 1996). According to Novitz, classificatory disputes are more often disputes about our values and where we are trying to go with our society than they are about theory proper. For example, when the daily mail criticized Hirst's and Emin’s work by arguing "For 1,000 years art has been one of our great civilising forces. Today, pickled sheep and soiled beds threaten to make barbarians of us all" they are not advancing a definition or theory about art, but questioning the value of Hirst’s and Emin’s work.

Gaming Chair


Integrated D-BOX™ MOTION CODE™

There was a long line at CES for the "gaming chair" and everyone seemed to want to do just one thing -- race a Formula One very, very fast. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Unlike other gaming chairs, this D-Box chair, dubbed the GP-100, doesn’t simply vibrate in synch with game play, it actually moves as well, tilting and rocking. I was getting dizzy just watching. The secret is the chair’s motion actuators. They resemble shock absorbers that move slowly like pistons in close integration with what is happening in the game. The company calls the patented technology the "Integrated D-BOX™ MOTION CODE™."

The Stage of Mobility / Smart WiFi


MIMO and Beamforming - BOTH is better!

The Navini solution delivers on the vision of 802.16e today and offers a seamless software upgrade to the mobile WiMAX standard. The total cost of ownership is significantly less than DSL, Cable and other first generation wireless broadband offerings, and with our smart beamforming technology and our plug-and-play activation capabilities, it is truly a personal broadband experience.

Navini's Smart WiMAX™ is the combination of mobile WiMAX with beamformed MIMO and smart beamforming, which is critical for personal broadband.

Even when the technology is working properly, wireless access is not as swift as that provided by high-speed wired connections to the Internet, such as digital subscriber line (DSL) or cable modem links, for example. Radio signals cannot hope to match the transmission speeds that copper wires or fiber-optic cables make possible. Nor can Wi-Fi, or other wireless technologies that rely on radio, supply the same degree of security; the transmissions can be intercepted by nearby radio receivers.

Many of these problems were evident even in 1993, when I led a team at Carnegie Mellon University to build Wireless Andrew, the first large-scale wireless local-area network (LAN) and a precursor to today's Wi-Fi networks. Completed in 1999, Wireless Andrew now connects the entire campus [see "Terrestrial Wireless Networks," by Alex Hills; Scientific American, April 1998].
