Pong Watch - DIY (!)
This one's incredible!
John Maushammer has built a selfmade PONG-Watch. I should work on something going in that direction as well. We've got a 3D milling cutter and a workshop for plastics at University. I was thinking about a binary watch but that's probably a bit boring since these watches are quite well known though they don't work binary. And soldering a selfmade SMD-LED Matrix looks good on the one hand but could be extremely tricky to solder.
I haven't thought about using these little screens in a wrist-watchy way yet. OLEDs (in case it is an OLED) are perfect for a use like that and they're compareably cheap. Let's see. I'll crack my old Sony Eriksson mobile open this week, maybe that one has a use.
That Pong watch looks so tempting… OLEDs here I come!

#10 Sprachlos
Man sitzt in einem Raum mit vielen, vielen anderen Menschen - alle so ziemlich von jedem Fleck der Erde. Australien, Thailand, Spanien, Albanien, 3x Niederlande, Japan… usw. Uns eint das Vorhaben eine Sprache zu lernen für die mich (fast) jeder hier im Verlag ausgelacht hat: Wir wollen Finnisch lernen. Und Finnisch macht Spass Sicherlich werde ich in einer Woche das absolute Gegenteil mit noch grösserer "Sisu" vertreten.
Aber es hilft: Der erste Monat, den man fern jeglichen finnischen Sprachverständnisses verbrachte, den verbrachte ich in dunkelster Isolation. Heute kann ich schon jeder finnischen Kassiererin ein "Moi" ins Gesicht schleudern und strahlend nach dem Kleingeld suchen, während sie mit mürrischem Blick einen debilen Anstaltsflüchtigen vermutet. Ich seh die WM mit finnischem Kommentar, futter Lakritzeis bis ich zur Enthaltsamkeit gezwungen bin und lauf mit blauem T-Shirt (Suomi-Aufdruck), Sandalen und kürzester Hose durch die Altstadt. Naseweiss halt ich jedem Fremdenführer korrektere Daten als seine ungefragt vors Gesicht, trinke Kaffee bis der Arzt mir den Tropf zwangsverordnet…
Sprachkurse können einem wahrlich Türen öffnen!
Stephen Wiltshire - Drawing Cities from Memory
During my last days in Helsinki we had a beer in the Korjaamo Bar. My ADs told me of a documentary about certain abilities autists would have. One of them was able to draw hugely detailled and complex pictures from memory.
Stephen Wiltshire has this ability. His Site features shorts documenting the process of drawing Tokyo, Hong Kong and Rome.
