I read about the new Gorillaz album this morning. Being a Jamie Hewlett fan and watching the YouTube clips it had me hooked in a whim.
On the official site it turned out that it’s a much richer act than just an album as it comes with an opera and a short film also.
So if you love animation, progressive music, Chinese culture and well.. opera, see you in London at the evening show on the 22nd of November!
(And you can get the album for 8 EUR without DRM.)
London restaurant tips are welcome!
I was upgrading my posted Silverlight projects when I ran into my oldest one.
One and a half year ago Füles was with us in the living room, wagging his tail just like in the animation I was showing to my family.
It was a great thing as he had just recovered from a serious stroke endured last summer.
Since then he passed away but the time we had with him was a true gift.
You can watch the animation titled ‘Sunrise’ here.
Today I toyed around a bit with Photosynth and my Laputa robot form my Japan trip this summer.
Check out the results:
Photosynth using the given set of photos (right) automatically creates a panorama-like 3D environment.
Moving around you can discover the details of the place pictured by the uploaded images (middle).
The coolest feature is unfortunately hidden: pressing the control button Photosynth shows the recognized 3D structure of the place (left). It works unbelievably well.
Imagine this on a mobile device with a GPS, internet connection and real-time.
It could be an interesting medium.
