Do You Like Your Datasets Raw or Well Done?
There are people who love data in its purest form and who have the capacity to see the truth in the numbers alone. I’m not one of them. I need serious help with unwieldy and unyielding data. I prefer to digest it once transformed into images, animations and patterns. Tapping into… Continue

One morning in a fitness boot camp
I was driving along the San Francisco waterfront one morning when a sign on a white tent in the Marina Green parking lot caught my eye. It said Reactt: The Only Real Boot Camp in San Francisco. I was curious, so I googled it when I got home. Originally, the term "boot camp" referred to the training program military recruits go through before they're deployed. In the mid-2000s, boot camps for rehabilitating juveniles caused a media frenzy when a boy's tragic death was caught on camera. These days, it has become a popular title for extreme fitness programs that start really early in the morning and command lots of repetitive hard core exercise under the watch of really buff instructors. Reactt is one of them, and since I've always wondered what being at boot camp might be like, I decided to try it out....
The original 40-button mouse
In the thread about Warmouse's unauthorized and many-buttoned OpenOffice mouse, Don Simpson points to ProHance's illustrious original. 40 buttons! It requires DOS 2.0. [AtariMagazines] I have a 40-button mouse, the ProHance PowerMouse 100, from around 1990. ProHance Technologies in Sunnyvale, CA also made 3-, 12-, and 17-button mice. If you think "ProHance" is so silly a name that no-one else would have used it, just try Googling it by itself...Starlings swarming
Jeremy sez, "Video of a starlings swarming; rather amazing, and recalls for me many images from technology and nature." Bird Swarm (Thanks, Jeremy!)

I turned my Boing Boing post about Murdoch's mad pronouncements on the Internet into a column for the Guardian, called "For whom the net tolls." What, exactly, is Rupert Murdoch thinking? First, he announces that all of Newscorp's websites will erect paywalls like the one employed by the Wall Street Journal (however, Rupert managed to get the details of the WSJ's wall wrong - no matter, he's a "big picture" guy). Then, he announced that Google and other search engines were "plagiarists" who "rip off" Newscorp's content, and that once the paywalls are up (a date that keeps slipping farther into the future, almost as though the best IT people work for someone who's not Rupert "I Hate the Net" Murdoch!) he'll be blocking Google and the other "parasites" from his sites, making all of Newscorp's properties invisible to search engines. Then, as a kind of loonie cherry atop a banana split with extra crazy sauce, Rupert announces that "fair use is illegal" and he'll be abolishing it shortly. What is he thinking? We'll never know, of course, but I have a theory. For whom the net tolls...Panoramic view from a tongue
Dentistry in depth in Barcelona Jeffrey sez, "Nico Roig created this fantastic visualization of a mouth at the dentist. The image of the dentist is a real photo, and the mouth is Nico's creation. If you ever wanted to see what it's like sitting on the tongue like a piece of candy... here you go." Dentistry in depth (Thanks, Jeffrey!)

I run Animated Yorkshire - a regional network to support animation professionals
Just realised I've been busily posting messages all over the site - but never said hello to you!
I've just launched a new events programme and am keen to get any animation whippet people that I dont already know to hear about what we are up to
Also we've got a really buzzy group of people that are keen to collaborate on projects - we've got our eye out for new opportunities!
Thanks for the site - its proving really helpful!
Best wishes

cheers for getting back to me..
I am a placement/work experience hound,
so if there's anything going of that nature, I can send you my details and such to put myself forward for that?
best,
joe .
Great to hear from you again. Would be super if you could be involved in the Cultural Evolution Syposium in October (28th) and even facilitate a workshop on 4ip stuff? I will email you our draft ideas later today, and maybe we can have a chat about it,
Cheers
Heather
As it goes I'm now in Berlin developing solutions for Too Much Green. The pull for OS4B in Leeds has got me though so it looks like I'm going to be *co-working* @ nti in a few months time, it's good stuff, I was incredibly impressed when I visited the space last week.
I look forward to hearing from you on Tues. I will be able to start breathing again then - fingers crossed!
Best wishes - Steve
