To Infinity And Beyond... And then back to Oklahoma.
Some kids out at Oklahoma State University were trying out some new radiation-detector-thing-a-ma-bob. And they did. But they also attached a Pentax k10d and snapped some bangin' photos. Not bad for some Macggver style rigging.
Check out the entire slide show. It's a worthy distraction.

I think the description of the video says it best:
"Stanford artificial intelligence researchers have developed software that makes it easy to reach inside an existing video and place a photo on the wall so realistically that it looks like it was there from the beginning. The photo is not pasted on top of the existing video, but embedded in it It works for videos as well - you can play a video on a wall inside your video. The technology can cheaply do some of the tricks normally performed by expensive commercial editing systems."
Thank you Stanford.

Oh St. Louis, you're ability to air satyrical-PBS specials, amazes is me to no end. The guys who made this weren't on drugs, yes they know it's absurd, that was done on purpose. But the general managers aired it... twice.
Well played gentlemen.
Livescribe Pulse Pen
Why not. Why the eff not. Besides the musical functions, it's pretty cool. Not sure what kind of processor and audio capabilities it has, but it seems pretty sick. The voice sounds like the Text Edit speaker from the ol'Apple computer. It slices, it dices, and it can also speak Mandarin. And if you're feeling Bach-ish, play the piano.
Not my bag, but I see its uses.

Homeboy has way too much time on his hands. Or he's trying to become a D-List YouTube star. Either way, thanks guy.

They're still waiting for the Chuck Norris endorsement. Right now, it looks like they have a Ben Affleck.

Just think how dissappointed he's going to be next time he tries to make this happen.

Some roll for style, some roll for geek
This is a sweet compilation of geeky bumper stickers that this dude compiled. If there was ever a post to let people know of my geekiness, this would be it.
Holler out to my FUBAR Squad.

Holograms on CNN
Okay, when I saw this, I just about crapped myself. I mean this is aslmost as cool as the Star Wars chess game between Chewbacca and C3-PO. I don't want to go into and explain how this all works, because I'm celebrating a brighter future, but this is so epic.

You Can Vote However You Like
So many metaphors can be said when it comes to getting out to vote. I'm pleading to the few who read this, vote. I don't care if you go right or left, just vote.
You can't bitch if you can't vote. If you don't vote and want to complain about the leadership of the country, you can preach my foot right into your ass.
Vote.

Gear Heart
I don't care who you are, how dorky you are, how too cool you are to look at this stuff, fuck you and die. This is awesome. Take sixty seconds and marvel. Just think what it took to think this through. How many times they failed.
Now that's cool design.
Bee Sexy
A pulled quote: "Ooooohhh, my penis got stuck in her vagina. It will remain stuck in the female like a cork, preventing any other male from mating with her."
I can't wait to see the bird version, combine the two, and show it as afterschool special. Get'em.

Before They Taught Sex Ed....
For the gents:
And to think I thought masturbation was a bad thing.
Now when I think back to my sex ed, I had to go to some specialty class with 16 other unluck schmucks when I was 12. It was at Emory University and definietly sold to parents who feared the sexual freedom of the late 90s. Anyways, we had to sit through three hours of penis and vagina talk with our dads in the back. When kid had his mom there. Awwwkkwwwaaarrddd... I'm not going to lie though, when we were watching the video about insertion, yes insertion, I got a little excited. Had to do the tuck before leaving class.
I'm just glad I never met any of those kids ever again.

Ask And Ye Won't Receive
Zombies On The Playground
I remember a simpler time. When all my concerns were focused on how the best way to spend my play time before it got dark. Now it's all about defending my work against the dissenters. Along side me are my art director, account person, and creative director. Because in my future career, the onslaught will be never ending. Kind of like the unliving. They come in the form of lawyers, clients, and the dreaded wife of the CEO. She's the creepy white-haired one in the white dress.
But I'm okay with that. This is a chosen fight. And I'm going to defend my motherfuckin' playground like it's my job. Because it will be.
If more people choose to put themselves in the line of subjective fire, we'd probably have less undead. Hell, we could control them and turn them into farm animals. Anyways, I enjoy the task of fighting against the mindless drovel of most ads. That's why I like being a creative.
And by default, a zombie slayer.

The Archive
The Archive from Sean Dunne on Vimeo.
Meet Paul Mawhinney. He's a collector of records. 3 million to be precise. And I'm talkin' old school vinyl. That's not including the 300,00 CD's he's also got stored in a 16,000 sq. foot climate controlled warehouse. Due to several reasons he's got to sell it. All of it. Thinking you might be interested? Hope you got 50 million plus. Good luck.
Watch the documentary. It's worth it.
The Articulate Rap Battle
Now the question becomes, would these commentators ever actually show up at an open mic.

Disposable Earphones
Yup, that's right, they finally found a cheap way to make ear buds that are one time use for your listening needs. Or at least cheap enough to wear you'll buy them at the airport.
Use it then lose it. Reminds me of something vaguely familiar. Anyways, it's called Rind. could be noteworthy or a total bust. We'll have to wait and see.

BMW Presents: Kinetic Sculptures
Bringing to you more tech and easy-listening jams than Yani on the Enterprise, the brand new BMW Museum in Munich is bad ass. With tons of BMW history (obviously), this baby is the jewel of the crown.
Using 714 suspended balls, this piece is about as soothing as calm ocean water. With a bonus of elevator music. It's really cool, but there's something that ruins the illusion after the second minute. See if you can tell. I'm sorry for stringing this along.
The Image Fulgurator
Alrighty, here's new piece of tech that is fresh off the technological boat. Invented by Julius von Bismarck, this little toy uses available tech that this Che-looking gentleman conjured up.
Using a camera, some sensors, another camera's flash, a timed-projection, and a will to freak out other people, the potentials for this bad boy are pretty awesome. If you were to apply it to advertising, maybe it's a statue with gross teeth and it's an ad for toothpaste? Lame example, but you get the idea.
For more technical specs on the Image Fulgurator, take a peek.
