Robots On Strike
Ah college, to be a part of something bigger than you are…. like robots striking due to union difficulties…. ah college. Great pics of the striking robots, server bot and others. Classic stuff… even school maskot being beaten up… ah, college…. I should probably go sleep.
Deep Sea Glowing Furniture
“The Symbiotic Bacterial Light Project (SBLP), a University of New South Wales-based arts/science collaboration, was formed to research and develop the functional capabilities of the natural process of bioluminescence with respect to its creative application towards visual media and interactive technology.” In other words, they are trying to use deep sea, glowing organisms to make cool/hip things. :D
3D Virtual Church
ShipOfFools.com has created the first ever virtual church in 3D. This 3D church exists with the help of MacroMedia’s shockwave plugin – which you need to visit it. Once there, you are given control a 3D person that can move around, sit down, pray, cross themselves and of course do a hallelujah move. If too many people are there you are given a ghosted out character that can move around and listen but not talk or be seen by anyone else (due to bandwidth resrictions), otherwise you can talk and apparently (i’ve only been a ghost so far) select the avatar of your choice to represent you.
In their first week of being live, there were quite a few abuses of system and so further restrictions were put into place to keep one or two people from ruining it for (or at least distracting) everyone else. They have actual sermons on Sundays but it is open 24/7. When a sermon is not going on you can discuss things with fellow parishioners or practice doing the wave in the pews. While the stuff you can do is somewhat limited… it is still quite cool that they were able to pull off an interactive 3D environment in shockwave.
