Patterned by Nature

Patterned by Nature was commissioned by the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences (naturalsciences.org) for the newly built Nature Research Center in Raleigh, North Carolina. 10 feet wide and 90 feet in length, this sculptural ribbon winds through the five story atrium of the museum and is made of 3600 tiles of LCD glass. It runs on roughly 75 watts, less power than a laptop computer. Animations are created by independently varying the transparency of each piece of glass.

Google utvikler Internett-brille

«Project Glass» fra prosjektgruppen Google[x]. Brillen er fortsatt bare en prototyp, men består av en liten skjerm foran øyet som kan vise alt du i dag kan se på en smarttelefon, lagt oppå virkeligheten.

Funksjonene Google nå viser frem, er alt man er kjent med fra en smarttelefon: Klokke, kalender, værmelding, tekstmeldinger, (video-)samtaler, kart, reiseinformasjon, foto og stedsinformasjon.

En av Googles argeste rivaler, Apple, jobber også med teknologi man kan ha på kroppen, skriver New York Times.

“No digital natives but the devices themselves”

There are no digital natives but the devices themselves; no digital immigrants but the devices too, James Bridle writes. He extracted a history of 35,801 latitude/longitude codes from his iPhone after discovering in April 2011 that iPhones store location data without the users’ knowledge. He then plotted the geocodes onto a map for each day and published it as a book, Where the f**k was I.
