CLOCK IT!!



This is weirdly lovely. The Last Clock is a software timepiece, with three rings composed of a video taken from a live feed. The outer ring is the second ring; the middle one is the minutes, and the innermost the hours. The clock is thus, as the creators explain, "a record of its own history." More:

As the hands rotate around the face of the clock they leave a trace of what has been happening in front of the camera. Once Last has been running for 12 hours, you end up with an easy-to read mandala of archived time.
That clock above was composed of images from a building in Taichung, Taiwan. Not terribly practical, but, like the Clock of the Long Now, a neat way refiguring how we think about time and our relationship to it.

San Lin Fai Lok!!!

Wait. Did I get a bigger role because of my acting?

Tay: It looks just like I remember it. I've found the same thing as Beck (thanks to my handy dandy Crossover office), that it only works in IE. I'm wary about having to write something completely new to write it (particularly since, as I've found out in the past few months, people are wary about installing new browsers (speaking of which, when are you switching to Firefox?).) I think it would be easier, given your well-documented code (which I haven't had time to read yet) to just figure out how to make it work in all browsers. Worst case, we could always learn and use DHTML, a la Google Maps. I won't be able to touch this for a while, though, I'm pretty swamped project wise (too many ideas, not enough implementations.)

Ngz: 'Zoright (as that modern stone-age family might say). I figure I'll still go, and anyone who wants to join me may do so.

go to page 4 of this pdf... it's too funny: Personality test by chocolate...

This may be very sacreligious... But if you like Baby Got Back and you are Christian then this link is for you.

baby got book

Well for all my asian brothers and not so asian brothers... Gung Hey Fat Choi! There I said it now leave me alone.

Hey Tay, I dunno if this helps you at all, but it works for the IE on the Mac OS X, but again, does not work for Firefox or Safari for OS X. I presume that's because they're netscape browsers, but still, awesome job, it looks friggin awesome.

Hey Tay,
it works in IE, but not in firefox.
For me anyway.
