Torch Videos

By admin | Published: March 5, 2010
We are still collecting videos for our torch relay for the Mixer Olympiad, but we’ve made it easier to get involved.  You no longer need to print out anything.  Just make a video of yourself carrying something vaguely torch-like and submit it using this form, or email it to me (info on the ‘contact’ page).  [...]

Week 149

By admin | Published: March 1, 2010
I realized that I never explained the new version of Earthify that uses Google Maps.  In this version, rather than having to install Google Earth and all of that crap, you can just use it right in your browser.  It still scrapes Craigslist and plots the posts for geographical consumption.  It is now also AJAX-ified, [...]

By admin | Published: February 24, 2010
Tonight I was playing around with some code that I found in this thread about natural marker AR made with SURF. It’s pretty neat stuff.

Chipmunk and openFrameworks

By admin | Published: February 19, 2010
Chipmunk is a great physics engine for use with openFrameworks because it isn’t weighed down with any graphics support.  The documentation is pretty sparse, but I am starting on a little wrapper working and incorporated the ofxDelaunay addon by plong0.  There are still a lot of things missing, like springs and joints and stuff.  But [...]
