Would this be similar to HDR?

The basic (in photography) is that you can counter balance exposure time with the opening of the lens; the less light gets in, the longer it gets to take a well exposed picture (basically). But since it’s all digital you can also counterbalance higher and lower exposure zones to grab the details that would have been over or under exposed (hdr)… unsure of how these basic photography rules would work out in this case… could anyone elaborate ?

technically he lives in _America_ too

or some early net-art featured later on things like rhizome.org

While reading, i was thinking: either this person is my ch younger than me or we live in two parallel universe :)

The great thing is: i still seem to agree with fundamentals… :)

Would this be a long lasting problem if used once (or just a few times — as in not constantly for any cut or graze)? I’m thinking within the context of war for wounded soldier with little access to hospital/medics.

i rarely had the issue but using applescript helped a couple of time to force every single windows to a specific (reachable) position.

Hey that’s amazing; thanks.

My comments was more about the culturally idealised images we have in mind rather than criticising the work and the tech (far from it actually, but given the downvotes I might have not expressed myself really clearly -> apologies to anyone who felt bad/sad about what i wrote).

I really appreciate the small animation you pointed at 22min.

I find the whole thing amazing and captivating - yet the image is … huh … slightly underwhelming. It looks like some gaussian blurred random image. I wish it could be the kind of crisp image JWST ‘sent’.

It’s difficult to force oneself to not romanticise these un-visible things based on artists visualisation we got accustomed to.

just read an article about some incoming celebrations in Russia and went through more details on Wikipedia about this plane; unsurprisingly the US has a similar one.

The whole doom planning is somehow fascinating and scary, both at the same time.

I totally agree; search and community works on the discovery engine; it’s probably the most under rated feature but the one i use most nowadays and most certainly the feature that onboards most and create repeated-use. I only sometimes pin stuff on boards from the “outside” for very specific things, more like visual bookmarking.

I'm fascinated by the alternate ideas that didn't take enough hold to become dominant in our culture and tools.

If you start digging this way, you might be interested in the pyramidal book idea by Robert Darnton, in The Case for Books. He is an 18th century historian but reflected on how the electronic book could be designed/used.

Another interesting exploration (not digital) is Abby Warburg's Mnemosyne Atlas in which he agglomerates images to explain/demonstrate ideas he explores as an art historian.

“But we never see them because they’re highly secret — if you know how they work, you can counteract them.” followed by a picture of the inside made me think it’s not mysterious anymore.

Simple Efficient Fun

I’m a fan.

Love at first sight.

Ridiculous Pointless Sad

old click bait and i fell for it! thanks

couldn’t find a reference to laser in the article; where did you read this?

it feels like the core advantage over current information transportation is for inter planetary communication.

2 billion 6 months

Totally feels like the Dune’s Fremens!

It’s what the TLD stands for; nothing prescriptive nor to agree with. It’s a fact.

I was going to second that; it's the first thing that came to my mind—but then it doesn't work for books without barcodes (or does it now?). I worked with version 2 a while back, it was great. The iPhone app to scan books without the laptop nearby requires version 3 though. The Mac app could also check the price the book sells for online.

That was exactly my first thought; once hijacked, what can you do with this and for how long before it shows?

Your mention of attaching a device to draw the cut-lines made me think of Hektor, Viktor, Otto, Rita projects by Jürg Lehni http://juerglehni.com/works/hektor

Hey, we've been hard at work making Curator better and are launching Curator 3.0 today. It’s a major new version with Sharing & Collaboration, better Text Tools, Pinterest Import and more.

It does sound like you had great time! Your tool is really good-as I have been following and using it for a little while I can definitely vouch for its usefulness to quickly put down visual thought and present ideas.

How do you see the future without the big-return-investors kind of things?
