“Cessez le travail à la chaîne! Enchaînez les idées, les images et le mouvement! Artisans des médias de partout dans le monde, un moment historique est advenu: du temps reculé des scribes jusqu’aux blogueurs, du cinématographe des Lumière jusqu’au dernier cri des cellulaires-caméra, les moyens de production et de distribution sont de nouveau à portée de tous! “

“An abstraction layer (or abstraction level) is a way of hiding the implementation details of a particular set of functionality. Software models that use layers of abstraction include the OSI 7 Layer model for computer network protocols, the OpenGL graphics drawing library, and the byte stream input/output (I/O) model originated by Unix and adopted by MSDOS, Linux, and most other modern operating systems.”

Kenny Goldsmith: “poetry has been exploring… marginalized to the point of invisibility … our immersive digital environment demands new responses from writers: what does it mean to be a poet in the digital age?…identity for one is up for grabs, why use your own words when u can express yrself just as well using someone else’s. And if your identity is not your own, then sincerity must be tossed out as well… ”

“The Global Consciousness Project, also called the EGG Project, is an international, multidisciplinary collaboration of scientists, engineers, artists and others. We collect data continuously from a global network of physical random number generators located in 65 host sites around the world. The archive contains more than 10 years of random data in parallel sequences of synchronized 200-bit trials every second. “

“Bart Hess is working for himself exploring several fields that straddle textile, fashion and animation, these fall within the commercial and art world.”
“A typographic experiment playing with the “Parallax Effect”, light-perspective distortion and shadow. The final piece was an intallation in a cubed room, combining a rotating light source and dispersed, hanging pixel-blocks in order to project words on the surrounding walls.”

“…consciously perceived words were accompanied by long-lasting effects (>200 ms) across a great variety of cortical sites, with a special involvement of the prefrontal lobes. This sustained pattern of neural activity was characterized by a specific increase of coherence between distant areas, suggesting conscious perception is broadcasted widely across the cortex.”

First, if you’re not yet familiar with kinetic type, it’s a newish term for something that’s been around for a while (animated typography). It pays special attention to syncing directly with dialogue and typographically reflecting the emotion of the script or lyrics. “
To Do or Not to Do: The Neural Signature of Self-Control:
“Our results suggest that the human brain network for intentional action includes a control structure for self-initiated inhibition or withholding of intended actions. The mental control of action has an enduring scientific interest, linked to the philosophical concept of “free will.” Our results identify a candidate brain area that reflects the crucial decision to do or not to do.”

“The ultimate lesson of psychoanalyst is that…emotions as such are deceiving. There are no specifically fake emotions because as Freud puts it literally: the only emotion that does not deceive is anxiety. All other emotions are a fake.”
