“We used a high quality projector and semi-matt foil from the hardware store to project the eyes to the window. They are rendered by a WebGL frontend using a shader sphere effect. The detection is performed by OpenFrameworks and the Kinect.

Films I Saw 2012 #1
This year,I promised myself to track films I saw and books I read more carefully, I think I mentioned that already when I made my Norwegian Wood post. So here it is, Tree of Life is just visually stunning. I like the non linear narrative, it is a very ambitious film, yet the story is humbling. Melancholia made me wonder how I’d be like when the world is about to end. Also, men are...

Halves
I don’t know you anymore, and you don’t know me anymore either. Glass half empty or half full? There’s a yearning, not the physical, not the romantic, but some kind of yearning. This is not where I want to be, but I cannot run away without feeling guilty. It’s suffocating. Restricting. And all of these makes me sad, but I try my best to pretend that it is OK. But if I...

Norwegian Wood
by Haruki Murakami

The First Day of the Year
The first day of 2012. What do I feel? Such a simple question, but the answer fails to register on my brain. How do I answer? As far as resolutions are concerned, I would rather not go that route. How may times did all of us prepare that list, year after year? promises of big changes, only to abandon them, and return to our old ways? I don’t like that anymore. Grand declarations or big...

2012
I have to admit that the effin movie freaked me out. What ifs surround my over analytical brain. But never mind, the end of the world will not stop me from making my life change for the better.
Yes, I have been thinking about New Year’s resolutions, and NO going on a diet is not part of my list! In fact I plan to eat my heart out.
Things I think I should focus on,hmmm. Definitely my...
