A very interested graduation project by Karim Amrani. He started with the question “How can we design virtuel experiences. To physically interact with elements that we usually never can or dare to touch”.
The Answer on the question, came out as a interactive installation, called Phirtual Bees.

Unity Spring 2010 Highlight Reel from Unity3D on Vimeo.

Unity3D de applicatie die al lang op de plank licht om er mee te beginnen. Maar waar begin je. Welke tutorial pas het beste bij mijn wens. Ik heb redelijk wat ervaring in Cinema4D en hoe kan Unity3D hierin een rol gaan spellen. Gelukkig zijn er een altijd goede resource beschikbaar online. Eerste ben ik gaan kijken welke boeken er beschikbaar zijn voor Unity3D. Zo kwam op het boek Unity Game Development Essentials. Maar om wat geld te besparen en eerste maar te kijken of Unity3D de uitkomt kan geven, zocht ik verder. Zo kwam ik uit op een reeks files van VTC. Waarin de in duidelijk stappen Unity3D wordt uitgelegd door middel van video.
Deze zijn hier te downloaden.. Let wel op dat de part 1 en 2 enz hebt gedownload voor dat je ze uitpakt. Tijdens het uitpakken wordt er gevraagd naar part 2 enz. Om toch wat specifieker te zijn hoe cinema4D en Unity3D samen werken, vond ik een zeer geschikten video tutorial die uit 6 delen bestaat. Hierin wordt duidelijk dat cinema4D en Unity3D uitstekend met elkaar samen werken.De tutorial is er een van een reeks van 5 die wordt aangeboden door LearnUnity3D en gepresenteerd wordt door Will Goldstone.

Met als deze info kan je een heel eind komen om Cinema4D en Unity3D te combineren tot een geweldige Applicatie voor verschillende platforms. Zo is het ook mogelijk om je game naar ipad of iphone te exporteren. Hiervoor heb wel wat meer tools nodig. Zoals X-code en een developer license van apple. Tevens is er hiervoor ook een mooie tutorial geschreven (learn Unity3D iphone lessons) waarin stap voor stap wordt uitgelegd hoe je dit moet aan pakken, met dank aan Gregory Pierce. Het enige wat je zelf nog moet aanleveren in een stuk creativiteit.

While Apple’s iPhone has notably been left out of Adobe’s new initiative with Flash Player 10.1 to bring an integrated Flash experience to browsers on smartphones and other platforms, TechCrunch notes that Adobe has also been using its Adobe MAX 2009 conference to show off capabilities found in the company’s forthcoming Flash Professional CS5 that will allow developers to build Flash-based applications and then export them to the standard .ipa format used for native iPhone applications. The new support for iPhone applications in the Flash Platform tooling will not allow iPhone users to browse web content built with Flash technology on iPhone, but it may allow developers to repackage existing web content as applications for iPhone if they choose to do so.

Flash Player uses a just-in-time compiler and virtual machine within a browser plug-in to play back content on websites. Those technologies are not allowed on the iPhone at this time, so a Flash Player for iPhone is not being made available today. Flash Professional CS5 will enable developers to build applications for iPhone that are installed as native applications. Users will be able to access the apps after downloading them from Apple’s App Store and installing them on iPhone or iPod touch Applications created using Flash Professional CS5 meet all iPhone .ipa and SDK requirements, allowing them to be included in Apple’s App Store via the standard iPhone Developer Program. Adobe has even featured seven current App Store applications that were built using a pre-release version of Flash Professional CS5.

Finally, it’s there. The Dropbox iphone app.
Dropbox is a storage application and service operated by Evenflow, Inc. The service enables users to store and sync files online and between computers. Dropbox has a cross-platform client (Linux for x86 and x86_64, Mac, Windows and now the iPhone) that enables users to drop any file into a Dropbox folder that is then synced to the web and the users’ other computers with the Dropbox client. Files in the Dropbox folder may then be shared with other Dropbox users or accessed from the web. Users may also upload files manually through a web browser.

Dropbox is for me the best way to share and store files in very quick way. It’s fast and easy. If you use you iphone in combination with a me account you get a 2oGb Stores with idisk. I have play with it, but is sucks. Idisk is just to slow to work with. Maybe there will be time, that dropbox can be used with apple’s ical and contacts.
That will be alsom.

Het was te verwachten, dat hij er zou komen, de 3voor12 iphone app.
Na veel veel ontwikkelen is het dan toch door iemand gelukt om een iphone app te kunnen maken voor de 3voor12 luisterpaal. Er zijn nu 10 beta version beschikbaar.
Je moet er alleen wel iets voor doen.
De release zal niet lang op zich laten wachten.

Ik weet nog goed dat ik er zelf in 2006 een widget prototype probeerde te maken.
Helaas lukt mij het niet om binnen een widget een audioplayer te maken.
Dit vanwege de bron die niet beschikbaar was.
De widget is uiteindelijk een simpele widget geworden waarmee je de laatste albums kon bekijken.
Download 3voor12 luisterpaal widget 2006

Het prototype heb ik in 2006 naar de vpro gestuurd, waarna ik een enthousiaste reactie terug kreeg.
3voor12 hou het opnemen in hun nieuws brief, helaas deze ik nooit gezien. Maar goed.
In 2008 bracht 3voor12 zelf hun eigen dashboard widget voor de luisterpaal.
Hierin zit een audioplay verwerkt dit het mogelijk maakt om direct van je dashboard de audio files te beluisteren.
Dit lag natuurlijk voor de hand, vanwege de bron van audio waar ik nooit bij kon.
Het idee was geboren in 2006 en werd gelukkig gerealiseerd in 2008.
En nu is het tijd voor een iphone app.
Het doet me goed om te zien dat er op schillende platforms wordt ontwikkeld voor de luisterpaal.
Want de vpro luisterpaal blijft een wereld concept.

Google krijgt geen toestemming om in het Duitse plaatsje Molfsee foto’s te maken voor het online project Streetview. De Gemeenteraadsvoorzitter van het plaatsje wil Google dringen toestemming te vragen om het plaatjes te mogen fotograferen, dat 4500 inwoners telt.

Robert Hodgin (flight404) ; “My main uses for Processing are in the realm of audio visualization. I have made many videos using only Processing with no post production or editing after the fact. This is a bragging point only… it would certainly be more effective to render out a bunch of shorter videos and then piece them together in AE or something similar. But I get great joy out of knowing that I can hit PLAY, walk away for a bit, play some GTA IV, then come back to find a finished piece that has enough randomness built in that when I view it, I feel I am viewing something totally unique and were I to press PLAY again, the next version would be different.”

Robert Hodgin is using Processing for personal entertainment, but he was also involved in the interactive projection wall NextFest Grass Wall by The Barbarian Group and flight404. see this video

The purpose of the installation was to promote the new Saturn hybrid cars. The concept was simple enough: 45 feet of grass swaying in a virtual breeze. Visitors to the installation can make the grass sway just by walking in front of it. Additionally, visitors can input text from either of the two kiosks positioned in front of the screen. This text appears in the projection attached to its own grass blade and sways along with the rest of the scene.

The Lemur is a top of the range control surface for audio and media applications, that breaks from the prior art on several grounds. Its major innovation consists in its brilliant modular graphic interface concept.

The Lemur Input Device is a highly-customizable multi-touch device from French company JazzMutant which serves as a controller for musical devices such as synthesizers and mixing consoles as well as for other media applications such as video performances. As an audio tool, the Lemur’s role is equivalent to that of a MIDI controller in a MIDI studio setup, except that the Lemur uses the Open Sound Control (OSC) protocol, a proposed high-speed networking replacement for MIDI. The controller is especially well-suited for use with Reaktor and Max/MSP, tools for building custom software synthesizers.

Rf id mon amour 1.0 is a kit for designers, artists and architects, which allows the realization of interactive exhibitions in a very simple manner, without any specific knowledge of programming or electronics. With RF-ID mon amour you can “map” each rfid tag to a video (any QuickTime readable format is allowed) just by placing them on the reader and selecting a file.

Starbucks with tequila, i have look for it but no succes at all. The idea that we can order drinks like that, by using are phone would be great. Genoco had the same idea. Take A look at this interactive iphone app for starbucks

Radiohead just released a new video for its song “House of Cards” from the album “In Rainbows”. No cameras or lights were used. Instead two technologies were used to capture 3D images: Geometric Informatics and Velodyne LIDAR. Geometric Informatics scanning systems produce structured light to capture 3D images at close proximity, while a Velodyne Lidar system that uses multiple lasers is used to capture large environments such as landscapes. In this video, 64 lasers rotating and shooting in a 360 degree radius 900 times per minute produced all the exterior scenes. The engine to make the video is a opensource app made in processing.

Just take a look at it and play around with it
