We are running a torch relay as part of opening ceremony for Eyebeam’s MIXER: OLYMPIAD, and we want you to carry the torch for a leg of it! To be exact, we want you to print out the attached PDF with a color printer, attach it to something torch-like (a stick, handle, pole), and make [...]
Chipmunk and openFrameworks
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 [...]
Week 147
The past two weeks have been extremely hectic. Aaron and I are just finishing nailing down our plans to go to San Francisco for the TV of Tomorrow festival. After some initial confusion, we have decided that our presentation will be on March 4th at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, 701 Mission Street [...]
Week 145
A few weeks ago, I stumbled across the site weeknotes.com, and the concept struck to me as a great, low-commitment way of journaling without the pretense of pretending to have some super deep insights that need to be written down. Weeknotes are “about reflecting on your work, your achievements, and what’s on deck.“ Simple. It [...]

POP Magazine App launches
For the last few weeks, I have been hacking on OpenCV to put together a little web application for the new POP magazine App, and it finally got approved. Go out and buy yourself a POP magazine and get the app immediately! When combined, you unlock the power of HIDDEN CONTENT. I think.
WSo’T Blowing Up
Aaron and I will be presenting the World Series of ‘Tubing at the TV of Tomorrow conference on March 3-4th at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco. If you are in the area, let me know and I’ll see if I can get you a pass. While on the subject, Aaron [...]
Crowded – Episode 1 iminent
I am a bit behind schedule on the Crowded project because of several other projects that all hit me at the same time, but I finally realized that it would be downright foolish of me to edit a show about crowdsourcing myself. So if you are an audio editor and want to take a stab [...]
openCV planar object detection
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. This is building on some other stuff that I wrote just to do tempalte matching using a class I made: cvSURFImage. (cvSURFImage.h cvSURFImage.cpp) Most of this stuff comes from the [...]
