The intricacy and attention to detail are incredible as are the number of “tours”.

60 seconds of user submitted footage to the “The Beauty of a Second” film contest. It’s surprising how much emotion can be capture in a single second of footage. Enjoy.

Kinect Effect

What started life as a gaming peripheral has been subject to some incredible “hacks” since it’s release. With Microsoft set to release the first commercial iteration of the Kinect SDK, the possibilities are quite literally limitless. Here’s just a few of the things in the hypothetical pipeline. Needless to say, some of these ideas shouldn’t be too difficult for third party commercial operators to implement when they get their sweaty palms on the SDK.

Apple acquires C3 Technologies

October 29th, 2011 No comments

In August, Apple acquired C3 Technologies, the company responsible for the incredible demonstration shown in the above video. With relationships becoming increasingly tense between Apple and Google, despite Apple renewing its commitment to Google Maps with iOS 5, you’d be blind not to see what Apple has up its sleeve.

iOS 6 is likely to launch at some point in 2012 and if they can pull off anything resembling the above, they look set to blow the competition out of the water.

There’s no way of appreciating how incredible this is until you’ve seen the video, and for a little extra (double deck levitation and obstacles) see the video below. Enjoy! Read more…

How I knew Steve Jobs

I didn’t, but rather than repeat many of the things that have already been and will be written I wanted to share my impressions and thoughts on the man and his legacy.

We all knew, but didn’t want to admit that time was short and that yesterday’s news was inevitable. That didn’t make the truth any less shocking. Firstly, Steve Jobs was a father and a husband and whilst many people will be saddened by his death, his family’s loss, having suffered with him for so many years is unthinkable.

For everybody else, Steve was the man who stood in front of us a couple of times each year and announced Apple’s newest innovations. His white trainers, blue jeans, black turtle neck and glasses combo broke free of it’s cult appreciation shackles, he personified Apple, so much so that his name and the brand became synonymous not only to the few, but to the masses.
