I’m listening to Eurovision recaps, because of course I am, and in 1957, Belgium sent Ian Chesteron with Jimmy Neutron hair.
Augmented Reality Sandbox with Real-Time Water Flow Simulation
“Video of a sandbox equipped with a Kinect 3D camera and a projector to project a real-time colored topographic map with contour lines onto the sand surface. The sandbox lets virtual water flow over the surface using a GPU-based simulation of the Saint-Venant set of shallow water equations.”

Anonymous asked: Okay, no problem, I totally understand (; OH AND THANKS FOR THE SECOND ONE. YOU ARE AMAZING
Anonymous asked: hello there! you made that cover of the "old guys from star trek" magazine right? IT'S BRILLIANT. Think you could make a TOS edition? That would be amazing!
Ha ha, thank you!
I made two of them, even! The second one has Leonard Nimoy on it, but that’s as close as we have as of yet. I don’t make a lot of TOS stuff just because there’s already SO MUCH of it and I’d rather focus on my favorite neglected Trek, DS9. Plus, a big hunk of the principle cast of TOS is no longer living and I wasn’t sure how I felt about Photoshopping their heads onto a fake teen mag. It might be fun to do a series someday focusing on each Trek, but for now, there are no plans to do TOS-only.
Thanks for the message, though!
“Female Star Trek fans [are] among the most active in engaging their sci-fi hobby in creative ways, cosplaying, writing fan-fiction, and producing artwork generally more than their male counterparts,” sociologists Maria and John Jose-Tenuto wrote earlier this year, describing the findings of an international, 8,000-fan survey they conducted back in 2006 to study fandom subcultures. “The strong connection with Star Trek by female fans has its roots in the initial days of fandom when pioneers like Bjo Trimble, Eileen Becker, Elyse Pines, Shirley Maiewski, Devra and Deborah Langsam, and Jacqueline Lichtenberg helped pave the way for many of the same fan activities in existence today.”
