Al Hirschfeld's Portraits

The Hirschfeld Follies: A charming and generous
gallery of Al Hirschfeld's portraits from The New York Times,
spanning from 1928 to 2002 (
registration required),
indexed by
date,
person and
show. Are there any outstanding young
contemporary caricaturists out there who are doing good work (not
necessarily in the theatre) we old-timers should know about?
[
Be sure to accompany with plep's great post on American
cartoon and caricature and PeteyStock's January 2004 obituary post. And
while you're at it, if you'll excuse the immodesty, my own David Levine post, with
a (superb) still-working link.]
Portraits in carbonite brick
Portraits in carbonite brick
01/19/2004 01:55 PMOnline gallery of super-geeky sculpture, from artist Nathan Sawaya :
I decided to make Han
Solo frozen in carbonite. Life size. It took about 10,000 bricks,
almost all dark gray, and about three months of on and off building. I
built the sculpture so it can break down easily into smaller parts,
thus making it mobile. Because, like most people, I like to take large
sculptures of people frozen in carbonite with me whenever I travel.

Thanks, David!)

XXX: 30 P9RN STAR
PORTRAITS (a bit NSFW, obviously) by
photographer Timothy Greenfiel
d-
Sanders, is a
book that
features paired portraits (one clothed and one nude) of the top stars
in p6rn, straight and gay, from legends like (
best-

oirist)
Jenna Jameson,
Ron Jeremy and Nina Hartley to (ahem) rising stars like Sunrise
Adams, Belladonna, Chad Hunt. The
bo
ok includes short essays on the intersection of p6rnography and
culture by a wide range of writers, from
Salman Rushdie
to
AM
Homes. XXX is, essentially, about the much-dreaded
"p6rnif
ication" of the culture at large,
rec
ently featured in the New York Times.
As
Gore Vidal
writes in the book's introduction, “Doubtless, sex tales were told
about the Neanderthal campfire and perhaps instructive positions drawn
on cave walls. Meanwhile, the human race was busy establishing such
exciting institutions as slavery and its first cousin, marriage.”

Microsystems is releasing an early version of their Project
Looking Glass desktop environment into the GPL.
What if windows were translucent so that you could see the multiple
windows you're working on at the same time? What if you could tack a
note to yourself right on the Web page you're viewing? What if your CD
or movie database became a 3D jukebox, where titles were joined with
images to make finding what you want easier than ever? [...]
Sun Microsystems' latest innovations by its Advanced Software
Technology Team will make these "what-ifs" a reality for the desktop
of the near future. Code-named Project Looking Glass, these Java
technology-based developments will bring 3D windowing capabilities to
the desktop to offer a far richer user experience for work and play.
But, it's not only about looks, it's about creating an engaging user
experience, one that can make communications and collaboration even
easier.
It's basically Sun's spin on a 3D desktop environment. I remember
seeing early previews of this at a JavaOne keynote a few years ago,
and everyone definitely sat up and took notice. Even at that early
stage, they had video playing in real time on a 3D object. It would be
awesome to see some of this tech integrated into GNOME and KDE a few
versions from now.

Self-Cleaning Glass
Self-Cleaning Glass
06/08/2004 09:07 AM
They've been developing it
for years, so it's good news to see that the Pilkington Activ glass --
the self-cleaning "eco glass" coated with a film of titanium dioxide
-- is finally being put to use in commercial development. If you
hadn't see it before, the Activ glass has two advantages over normal
glass: the first is the photocatalytic effect that reacts to sunlight
to break down organic dirt, and the second is an enhanced hydrophilic
tendency of water running on the glass to form sheets instead of
droplets (like Rain-X, for instance). The combination of the two
effects means that every time it rains (as I hear it does a lot in UK,
where the technology was developed), the outside of the windows clean
themselves.

So you thought the upcoming
enhancements to iChat AV sounded cool? Wait until you see Facetop:
Facetop superimposes transparent images of a computer's
desktop over video images of the user to allow the user to look at the
video and desktop at the same time.
The video shows a ghostly mirror image of the user so that when he
points, his video reflection appears to touch objects on the screen.
The system tracks fingertip position in the video to allow the user to
control the mouse pointer.
Essentially it looks like two users are working with a pane of
glass containing the desktop between them. UNC is developing this
technology as part of their research into software to aid in pair
programming over a distance. Pretty cool. This is possible on OSX
right now, but Windows folks will apparently need to wait for Longhorn
for the neccesary support.

05/07/2004 03:28 AMLeonard pulled
the recent under the radar stuff about Pat Tillman into one nice
post. I was impressed with Tillman's resolve and unselfishness in
ditching sports for the military, but after reading the SFGate article he sounds like an interesting and
very human person to boot. The funeral sounded like a perfect send-off,
done the way he would have wanted it, and Ted
Rall is an asshole for making a dark cynical joke of the guy's
ultimate sacrifice.
This is why blogs are a good thing for the existing media - due to
the language used at the funeral, no media outlet in america can carry
it, and probably due to our religious sensibilities, the photo from
the funeral is only running on an overseas news wire. So you can only
get the rest of the story thanks to the millions of eyeballs scouring
the net for interesting angles on what would otherwise be
one-dimensional soundbites.

soapbox for this kind of thing, who wrote back:
“That's how I
feel about my life in general. I get in a car to go to work. Dumb,
and filthy. I use horrible cellular technologies that drop 5 times on
my way to work. I use airplanes that are 30 year old technology to
fly, for God's sake, to do a keynote where most
people can't see me, and to do 10 customer meetings I'd rather
do with a very high quality video conference. And then I use a laptop
whose UI hasn't advanced in, oh, 14 years.” I’m a bit more
cheery than my correspondent about user interfaces, but is that an
excellent wake-up call or what?

ADO.NET 2.0 Feature Matrix
07/13/2004 12:25 AMADO.NET 2.0 comes with a plethora of new features. This includes a new
base-class–based provider model and features that all providers can
take advantage of, as well as changes that are specific to
System.Data.SqlClient. Because the .NET Framework 2.0 is being
released in conjunction with SQL Server 2005, some of these features
require SQL Server 2005 to be usable. This article is meant to serve
as an overview and roadmap of the new features, give examples of their
use, and includes a chart of which features are provider-neutral and
which are SqlClient-specific. In future articles in this series, I'll
be going over some of the features in greater detail. In addition,
there are many new features of the DataSet and friends; these will be
covered in future articles.

Matrix reviews
11/05/2003 02:29 PMSTLtoday: "The Matrix Revolutions" is awful. It's
not merely hapless or disappointing - it's a total catastrophe, an
apocalyptic waste of money and talent that obliterates its very
purpose, which was to resolve the cosmological questions that were
posed by that misbegotten middle child, "The Matrix Reloaded."
Daily Trojan: "by the time the long awaited
denouement is delivered, which reveals the power behind the Machine
World, the "Deus Ex Machina," most viewers will already be looking
at their watches."
Tri-City Herald: "If this is
what big-budget freedom does to filmmakers, they should be kept in
chains. Louder, longer, more expensive and dumber than its
predecessors, "Revolutions" is a mediocrity that will provide escapism
only to those who head for the theater exits."
CBS News: "Revolutions" eats all of the goodwill built up by
"The Matrix," and then some. It isn't just bad moviemaking -- it's
a bizarrely self-destructive film."
BBC
NEWS: "No-one really expects sequels to be better than the
original, but Matrix Revolutions is a crushing disappointment in
almost every way."
More reviews.
Now that your expectations have been sufficiently lowered, feel
free to go see it. I certainly will.
