Present city of the near future

This has such an organized and elegant touch. It also gives a warm future feel.

My sleep problem

My roomate is sleeping now. She snores. Its really funny to hear her sleep. She reminds me of my boyfriend . He snores a lot too. You can imagine how my sleep life is. I really only sleep in the middle of the day when everyone is gone and I'm by myself. Im getting used to it though. It definitely doesn't bother as much as it used to.

An article reinforcing my previous point about ipads. They are not hurting laptop sales at all, they are simply bought as an "additive"

nyc.

Maybe they happen everywhere. These little instants that could change the course of your life.

But nowhere, I imagine, are they more noticeable than in New York City.

Textures of Time 3- Slow Motion Missile

Moving from R.U.R, I got completely entranced in the coolness that is slow motion texture of time. Needless to say, the rest of these videos will be in that style; shown in this post is the launching of a missile in a more witnessable version.

What I'm listening to right now

Circuitry

So after last class I was given this circuit starter kit to mess around with. It comes with a book that teaches you all the basics about circuitry and also introduces you to the physics behind it. I don't know much about circuitry at all so I could have said some incorrect things in the video. This it looks pretty fun and can really teach you how to utilize these basic components to control many different things. The one thing I want to learn is how to use a transistor. The transistor is suppose to act as a circuit controller for analog devices such as a motor or a buzzer. The transistor I believe has an input for the electrical current for the analog device and an input for the digital electrical current (9v in this case) which acts as a trigger for the analog device. It looks pretty interesting and fun to mess around with, maybe we can utilize a transistor and other components to control something on stage.
