Darwiin remote how to video

tested this today. it works to a fashion.
could be useful, although not for full motion control
as it only uses the accelerometers to judge direction, which at best is a bit poor.

make a single page site with multiple live feeds.

API (application programmer interface)

similar to this: http://wordle.net/

but from live feed.

like:

http://amaztype.tha.jp/US/Books/Title?q=labradoodle

search for things like Facebook API to get an idea what info you can use to create for visualization on own site.

Android-game development tool from google, for mobile/internet gaming, based on linux downloadable.

(idea)

maybe wordle style word map from live feed such as BBC news.

Ideas:

Flush system to remove rubbish content from a list of itunes style faveourite programmes.

window size tv

draw curtains

hang favourite shows from curtain hooks.

Motion Graphics.(unit)

see Saul Bass (intro’s for Alfred Hitchcock etc) stylized, lengthy, eventually used video in his motion graphics/movie intros.

Kinetic Type

Motion Typography eg

too be cont…

mat:.)

I think that the idea of making a kinetic type piece of motion graphics works best with songs, some that I am thinking of using include:

A Whole Child Ago-Biffy Clyro

Solution Devices- Biffy Clyro

Tautou- Brand New

Steadier Footing-Death Cab for Cutie

Attractive Today-Motion City Soundtrack

Don’t Call it a comeback- Motion City Soundtrack

Modern Chemistry-Motion City Soundtrack

Motion without meaning-thrice

Gone In the Morning-Newton Faulkner

A Modern Way of Letting Go- Idlewild

Meat Head- Story Of The Year

Food-The Zico Chain

War of the worlds-Get cape wear cape fly

Feeling Lucky- Jimmy Eat World

[Untitled Track]- Story Of the Year

Stationary Stationery- Anberlin

Godspeed- Anberlin

Prayer of the refugee- Rise Against

all of the above songs fit within three minutes quite nicely.
