Sounds that go bump
07/15/2004 10:41 AMWe're sorry to inform the passengers of Flight 905 that
the situation is FUBAR
So our plane's wing hit the wing of another plane on the ground, so
we never left. I won't be back until late tomorrow, and I won't make
my panel, or anything, at AlwaysOn. Regrets and apologies, folks.
Major bummer.
And I don't have much more time than to thank Euan for the
bluetooth/cellphone bridge that's making this post possible. And the
fine company for one sleepy, grumpy passenger.
[Doc Searls]
Ouch - I hate it when my plane gets into an accident. I slept late
today - so I'm gonna miss Rob Glaser's keybote. I'm sure he won't
mind.
But then I'll get there in time to ask him about new business
models in media. Oh boy.
Maybe we can talk about the time when Rob was still at Microsoft
and he licensed the Director player - and then..... discovered our
real strategy (cross-platform functionality) and never shipped the
player with Windows 3.1.
It was supposed to be called .mmm.
The whole world would have had the Director player from Windows 3.1
on, but instead.... it never happened.

Cellular sounds
Cellular sounds
04/15/2004 01:10 PMWhat do cells sound like? Nanotech pioneer Jim Gimzewski and grad
student Andrew Pelling are using the tiny tip of an atomic force
microscope like the needle of a record player to pick up a cell's
sound-generating vibrations. Gimzewski has named the fieled
"sonocytology." From a Smithsonian Magazine article about the
research:
"The distance the cell wall moves determines the
amplitude, or volume, of the sound wave, and the speed of the
up-and-down movement is its frequency, or pitch. Though the volume of
the yeast cell sound was far too low to be heard, Gimzewski says its
frequency was theoretically within the range of human hearing. 'So all
we're doing is turning up the volume,' he adds."

This is a story about the unintended
consequences of a business decision. Siemens handed their phone
division over to BenQ, and now folks like Lite-On—who make just
about every optical drive in the entire world—and Quanta
Computer are stuck with dead orders, scrambling to make ends meet.
It's a trickle-down economy out there, folks.
Some of the smaller companies are even merging with each other just
to stay afloat. I'm wondering what happened when IBM sold out to
Lenovo. I'll bet an entire Pacific Rim island sank.

Perhaps because he's an opportunist (yeah, this is going to be a
left-handed compliment at best), he has absorbed the best messages
from the other candidates. I thought his rhetoric and the set of
issues he propounded were right on. (I wish the Internet and
innovation were on his radar screen, but that's my own little "special
interest.") I just hope that he hasn't peaked. All three Boston Globe
columnists today worry that his shallowness will be exposed over the
long term. Why is he running, other than to...
A Talking Robot that Sounds Human
A Talking Robot that Sounds Human
04/13/2005 11:17 AMRoland Piquepaille writes,
"The
Takanishi Laboratory, at Waseda University, Japan, is home for many
robotic projects, including a flutist robot. Today,
let's look at a talking robot, the Waseda
Talker No. 4, or WT-4. This anthropomorphic talking robot was built
to better understand how the human vocal mechanism creates speech. The
WT-4 has 19 degrees of freedom (DOF) for lungs, vocal cords, tongue,
lips, teeth, nasal cavity and soft palate. With its vocal cords, it
can
produce Japanese vowels that sound similar to human ones. The next
version, the WT-5, will have even more sophisticated vocal cords."
For more on the WT-4 and WT-5 robots see Roland's latest blog entry.

"Digital radio broadcasts that bring CD-quality sound to the

basically complaining that digital radio - whose whole claim to fame
is the quality of the sound - sounds too
