QR codes meet AR

Pretty neat, especially this bit- "In this manner we envision a cityscape unhindered by ubiquitous signage and also an improvement to the quality and accuracy of the information itself."
Thought:
This novel solution is already outdated as AR has now achieved the ability to accurately 'see' and identify physical structures.

Nerd Extrovert

An obsession with magic requires a particular personality type: the nerd extrovert. “When you go to a magic conference, and you spend time with 500 magician people, you start to realize … trends,” he says with an arched eyebrow. “It’s the coolest hobby in the world, but people tend to get into magic because no one would talk to them.”

Excerpt from an article on Neil Patrick Harris.

Seems like a fascinating sub-genre (selfishly), that I'd like to explore. I'd also argue that most of you are nerd extroverts....

Uncomfortable plot summaries

Some plot summaries of movies and TV shows that might make you feel uncomfortable. Among my favorites:

THE GOONIES: Physically abused, retarded man finds love with overweight preteen.
THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST: Mel Gibson fulfills fantasy of showing a Jew beaten to a bloody pulp and killed on-screen.
TITANIC: Crazy old widow disregards lifelong memories of husband, children, and grandchildren in favor of that one time she fucked a bum.
STAR WARS: Religious extremist terrorists destroy government installation, killing thousands.
LORD OF THE RINGS: Midget destroys stolen property.
DOCTOR WHO: Elderly man serially abducts young women.
BOOGIE NIGHTS: Deformed boy goaded into life of crime.

"Reptiles have a tremendous amount of patience," Snow says. "They can wait out harsh environmental conditions. They can go without eating for a long time. Then, all of a sudden, there's a phase shift, a trigger point.

The population starts to function as as population rather than a lone inoculation."

-pretty sure this is from a new yorker article. also pretty sure this describes the word Zeitgeist, it seems to tap into the same general sociological cloud consciousness.

The most interesting bit to me about this is its describing pattern behavior in reptiles. Ancient brains. This makes me think that pop psychology, intrinsic drivers towards trends ans fads, have some sort of genetic correlation- they are our way of recombining, of acting a community of one species to satisfy some trigger within our code that was laid to waste long before we were recognizable as humans.

Man Made Objects Abandoned to Nature


Or, maybe returned to nature in a different state (but that's just the hippie in me).

This site becomes more interesting as you click around and see the arresting photographs coupled with the stories of decayed societal progress, abandoned coastal plains and never-to-be countries.
The collective creative output of so many brought back down to the barriers of vegetation.
Reminds me of Ikiru. Actually, from the human perspective, this IS Ikiru.

a lot can happen in a month

Take this last thirty days, for example.
I've moved from fallon and minneapolis to pereira o'dell and san francisco.

Pretty sure y'all knew, but I just couldn't stand tom any longer.

This time it was personal.
Promise to post more in a bit, when the dust settles.

At least you now know your random clicks to this site, while intermittent, are not in vain.

All the best.
