See whole user journey and that sounds like no joke to me

Nikon S1000pj is apparently world’s first camera with built in projector. So 2 kids were given this camera and then danced on a stage. Effect is pretty cool:

Well, pedophilia panic is on, again. Everyone is one these days. I am scared to look at children passing couple of schools everyday on my way to train station. Closing my eyes bumping into trees, and God forbid, into children smoking spliffs on a bus stop. Can’t even ask them how old are they because it would imply the obvious, not my concern for their health, of course. It is like somebody decided: let’s make everybody hate children. The easiest and most “christian” way is to accuse ever single adult, or even make a rapist or at least soft child molester.

I wanted to make a children book, now I need to burn all the materials just in a case, one never knows where the enemy is coming from. I haven’t lost, children did. They have lost all our trust simply because of us. Absurd? Well not in a face of law and petrified devotees. Polanski fell into a trap, Tate soon may be closed… and the biggest ever evil is having a holiday. Everything is just fine. We just need to grow up a bit… and <a href=’http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/8256206.stm’>get registered.</a>

Nearness from timo on Vimeo.

One of the essential properties of Near Field Communication is nearness, but this is set against one of the paradoxes of touch-based interaction where, in fact, nothing needs to touch.

The ghetto witchdoctor superstar chef is here to make you forget about every cooking show you’ve ever heard. Get your tomatoes, your mozzarella, a little balsamic, and get your ass into that kitchen, baby.

Saw it! Finally and what? Moon. Well if you like rotten body for half of the experience then it is worth it. Anyway what strikes most is that I finally saw a light at the end of full-on-action tunnel. Sci-fi so far used to be about aliens, wars, defeating, attacking, surviving and everything else (forget Solaris, better read all his books) but people(well few odd movies, I bet you can find them, in a way, are actually confirming it). If this movie is supposed to be a fresh start for sci-fi cinema then I think it is the only way forward. What I am on about? Well, space, machines, and technology is not that important to make it a hero. Actual life in future/space is getting more down to earth, more fiction then science. Yes, that way, correct. I mean proper fiction, where everything has a reason, no forced ending with nuke-it-all happy end. Science is in a background: harvesters, genetics, spaceships etc. They are not fighting each other to rule the galactic nor go to another planet to discover dinosaurs.

Well, it may sound like boring sci-fi drama, or maybe it is the new genre, after a sci-fi office drama we could have a Gone with the Wind remake about him being miner on the moon and she being a mermaid on a posh spaceship.

We used the only material on the site (sand) and the core of a film museum , projection to introduce the new building to the world. After days of building and nights of testing the minister of culture ignited this augmented sandsculpture. This is the test version of the sculpture, 4-sept-2009
