PhoneBook is a nice concept from Mobile Art Lab in Japan. Its such a simple idea, to combine a Iphone with a childs picture book. You put the phone inside the book itself, with a window to the screen acting as a little portal within the book. Then whilst flipping through the pages to match the scene on the screen, you can use the touchscreen & tilt sensors to interact with the animations. (via pixelsumo)

“The ambition of CIA’s newest signing, the Pirates, is to create the largest most breathtaking creations ever seen, the mystical and often hidden world of graffiti and street art is about to be turned on its head by this new team of creative talent.” (via fff)

“The system works by calculating the Delaunay tetrahedralisation of a point cloud obtained from on-line structure from motion estimation which is then carved using a recursive and probabilistic algorithm to rapidly obtain the surface mesh.”

CYOA [samizdat.cc], short for Choose your Own Adventure, is a beautiful and sophisticated website devoted on revealing the twists and turns one takes when reading interactive fiction. A typical CYOA book is a collection of numbered pages of a few different types. Most pages tell a portion of the story, then finish by allowing the reader to jump to another page. A smaller number of pages tell a conclusion to the story and represent an endpoint with no further jumps…Next to the detailed descriptions, the website allows you to read a book (“Zork: the Cavern of Doom” by Steve Meretzky) for yourself, or to check out the beautiful animations.

Unreal Engine 3, by way of the Unreal Development Kit, is now available free for non-commercial use. That means that not only are its capabilities for games accessible, but all sorts of other possibilities for art, visualization, and, yes, live visuals.

Since 2006, NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) has been orbiting Mars, currently circling approximately 300 km (187 mi) above the Martian surface. On board the MRO is HiRISE, the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment camera, which has been photographing the planet for several years now at resolutions as fine as mere inches per pixel. Collected here is a group of images from HiRISE over the past few years, in either false color or grayscale, showing intricate details of landscapes both familiar and alien, from the surface of our neighboring planet, Mars.

We’ve seen mixtures of Roomba and Pac-Man before, but nothing like this. A team of developers have hacked five floor-cleaning bots to create a sort of OCD version of the game, with the Pac-Man bot sucking up little white rectangles whilst being chased by robot incarnations of Inky, Pinky, Blinky, and Clyde. But, when the Pac-Man vacuum finds a power pellet those ghostly rovers turn blue and start fleeing. (via engadget)
