day 3

another one with lost beads from a tibetan necklace. This one has 11 strands, they did not tie neatly in the back, managing many strands is a tricky matter, luckily the clasp hides most of my indiscretions. Here is a helpful video on using crimping beads: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3Hy5KjSPLw they are conductive, now that I can make [...]

The Incident: Sweded

Posted by Greg Borenstein on Friday, January 21st, 2011 - Link

Mike Cohen, David Phillips, Spike McCue, Liza Singer, and I spent all day yesterday building the props, shooting, doing the music, and editing “sweded” version of the iphone game The Incident. “Sweding” is a style of lo-fi recreation of movies that was invented by Michel Gondry for his film, Be Kind Rewind. Check out Gondry’s [...]

Shot a music video today for Twin Shadow.  Can’t really show much for obvious reasons… There is quite a bit of post production work to do now and that it going to round out my 4×4 week. I spent quite a few hours Wednesday night/Thursday morning struggling to get Cineform’s video codec to render alpha [...]

Expanded the interior garden area today by building a shelf and installing lighting for a new tray of seedlings. Just broccoli, cauliflower for outside and another tomato plant for the WindowFarm for now… Cut an extension cord and split it to two bulb sockets with 100 watt 5500k CFLs.

Cinder…ugh

Posted by Mike Cohen on Wednesday, January 19th, 2011 - Link

In what seemed to be a catalyst for Greg B’s post on what makes a programming language good, I ran into similar issues. After spending most of my day attempting to really understand what I was doing with Cinder and not just copying and pasting code here and there, I ran into a ridiculous roadblock. [...]

Maya

Posted by Mike Cohen on Wednesday, January 19th, 2011 - Link

3D modeling for me, goes way back to somewhere around 1990 with Lightwave 3D on an Amiga 2000. While that sounds like I’m some sort of pro, I didn’t say I was good at using it. I played around with it every so often, but I never really got anything good out of it. Most [...]

4×4 Day 1: EarthTainer

Posted by Matthew Rader on Tuesday, January 18th, 2011 - Link

Growing up in farmtown Ohio I was completely spoiled by having plenty of wide open space to garden in.  I remember meticulously planning my gardens on graph paper all winter waiting for that last frost to start a new growing season.  When I moved to the city I had to give all that up but last summer [...]

Flickr API – photo portfolio

Posted by Jeff Howard on Tuesday, January 18th, 2011 - Link

For day one I figured I’d get started on two things I’ve been wanting to spend more time on. One being to spend more time with the Flickr API. The other to start work on building a photography portfolio. I figured I wasn’t really into the idea of a polished professional looking portfolio with just a select [...]
