“Day by day, however, the machines are gaining ground upon us; day by day we are becoming more subservient to them; more men are daily bound down as slaves to tend them, more men are daily devoting the energies of their whole lives to the development of mechanical life. The upshot is simply a question of time, but that the time will come when the machines will hold the real supremacy over the world and its inhabitants is what no person of a truly philosophic mind can for a moment question.”

- Samuel Butler, 1863, Darwin among the Machines.

FUTURE SELF studies human movement, mirroring interaction in dance, light and sound, while exploring the self, present and future. FUTURE SELF brought together a media artist collective, rAndom International, a choreographer, Wayne McGregor, and a composer, Max Richter in a unique interdisciplinary clash at MADE. The FUTURE SELF Project Film documents the creative working process, which began in London, England, continued in Berlin and culminated in three wonderful performances at MADE. Enjoy.

Impressive 4k demo scene from copypastaresearch:

As promised before, here’s the direct 1:1 JOGL2 port of my PC 4k intro competition entry for Revision 2012. Sure it got a little bigger while porting but the shader and control code remained more or less untouched.

The intro renders a fullscreen billboard using a single fragment shader. The shader basically encapsulates a sphere-tracing based raymarcher for a single fractal formula with camera handling. Additionally a second post-processing shader is applied to the render output from the raymarching shader. Post effects are god-rays, tv-lines and noise to make the overall look more interesting and less ‘sterile’. The different intro parts are all parameter and camera position variations of the same fractal. Anyway, code as always on Github: GL3_Hartverdrahtet_Port.java and the corresponding main+postprocessing shaders: main.fs post.fs

Village People's policeman lays down the law on his right to royalties

Thu, 10 May 2012 11:23:40 +1000

Village People's policeman lays down the law on his right to royalties:

“It all goes back to the 1978 amendments to the US Copyright Act. According to that law, songwriters have the right to unilaterally terminate their copyright deals with labels and publishers, 35 years after the contracts are inked, provided they give due notice to labels and publishers. It is under that law, which takes effect next year, that Willis is relcaiming his rights to the Village People’s hits.”
