I’m really struggling with the Python scripting at the moment. Basically I have no idea where to start, what to do, when or why. The third years said they struggled too but ran out of time so they ended the project and moved on to the next one. I want to do that as I’m [...]

While perusing my usual plethora of RSS feeds I came across something that I see every now and again (thanks to The Register) which is a patent application from Apple. Normally when these come out it marks a milestone in the development of their technologies. For example I saw the patent for the iPod Touch’s [...]

I know everyone has been posting cool things on their blogs recently and I felt a little left out, but then I realised that I have been to some awesome sites and found some really cool stuff that other people might be interested in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-DqZ8jAmv0 Here is a link to a video of something called [...]

Get ready for many more pun-laden post titles as a new project begins. ‘Virtual Environments’ sounds like a lot of fun, using the CAVE 3D projector and imagining different ways to use the 3D landscape while trying to incorporate user interaction into the mix too. I wanted to use sound in my design so I [...]
