Here is the first of my “10 things I learned” posts that I will attempt to post roughly 12 times a year.

Rihanna’s video ‘Umbrella’ is actually a satanic fuelled symbolic journey of selling her soul to the Devil. Some of the evidence of this is a bit of a leap but I can’t help feeling that there is some truth to it be it just artistry or part of some “New World Order” (nod nod wink wink). See this highly [...]

Arthur C Clarkes Quotes

admin — Wed, 11 Aug 2010 19:21:00 +0000

Arthur C Clarke has long since been my favourite author. In all of his works contains such huge ideas and vivid storytelling. As well as an author, he was also a keen scientist and even suggested the idea of geo-synchronous orbit satellites widely used in communications. Similar to his fictional work his quotes were often filled with wisdom, humour and intelligence. Arthur C Clarke passed away on 19 March 2008. Here are some of my favourites: I can never look now at the Milky Way without wondering from which of those banked clouds of stars the emissaries are coming. If you will pardon so commonplace a simile, we have set off the fire alarm and have nothing to do but to wait. I do not think we will have to wait for long There is hopeful symbolism in the fact that flags do not wave in a vacuum. It has yet to be proven that intelligence has any survival value. Our lifetime may be the last that will be lived out in a technological society.

Headtracking demo

admin — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 18:27:05 +0000

Headtracking has interested me for a long time since they almost included it in Steven Spielberg’s Wii game BlocBuster. The theory is that your mind determines distance based upon not solely your binocular vision (hence why many people can perceive depth perfectly with only one functional eye).

It is due to be featured in the upcoming Gran Turismo 5 for the Playstation 3. The other day I came across the below online demo that uses face recognition to achieve the same [...]
