A few photos of the Kide sculpture.

I'm a regular visitor to Niklas Sjöblom's photoblog as he takes nice pictures from around Helsinki every day and a few weeks ago a picture of the Kide sculpture took me by surprise as I hadn't seen that since August 2000 out behind Kiasma during the day and unlit. I found another photo of them in front of the Tuomiokirkko, too. I thought it would be a great excuse to trudge out in the -15C weather to try out a new tripod and take a few photos. I arrived well after darkness had fallen so the colours were bright, but the sky didn't have any colour to it at all. I went back for a few more shots at sunset and will add those when I have them developed.

The sculpture was to have been put into storage so I was somewhat surprised to see it had found a new home out on a Ruoholahti breakwater. It has seen better days as someone has taken a marker to the cubes, some of the lights are dead and there is moisture in 2 of them. Still, they are an interesting sight in the darkness. The breakwater didn't have a fence around it so I didn't get too bold with various angles since I didn't want to slip on the ice and fall 6 meters onto more ice and into the cold, cold water. You can see Lauttasaari and it's alien spaceship/mushroom water reservoir from the sculpture as well as lots of footprints in the snow across the ice. I'm glad to see it found a new home.

Crysta ls connecting nine Cities of Culture and European Cities of Culture for the Year 2000 [PDF] have a lot more information and background about the sculpture. The quick summary:

The sound and light sculpture Kide (Crystal), made of glass, symbolised the connection between people and cultures. 'Crystal' is the symbol project of the Helsinki City of Culture programme and a salute to the eight other Cities of Culture for 2000. In September 1999, a Crystal was installed in each of the Cities of Culture, providing a visual connection between them through a monitor near the sculpture itself. The Crystals will be returned to Helsinki before the New Year and assembled into an 18-metre tunnel of light on Senate Square; people may pass through this tunnel into the new millennium. The Crystal resembles an ice cube; it is made of laminated and reinforced glass elements. The middle one of the three glass layers is shattered; the broken glass crystals create reflections that shift as the viewer moves. The light source in the Crystal reacts to the touch of a human hand, and the light grows depending on how many people touch it. In the dark, the Crystal is lit. The colour and sound world of each Crystal reflect the city in which it is placed. The Crystal was designed by architects Kari Leppänen and Peter Ch. Butter. The visual design is by Dusan Jovanovic and the sound design by Jyrki Sandell. The glass construction is a patented Finnish invention.

Glowing Colons with Barium 06/21/2004 12:20 PM

« A mannequin in Talinn sporting a t-shirt that reminded me of Perl people with the added bonus that it would make a splash with the apostrophic jihad. »

Last week was YAPC::NA and I am sorry I missed Gnat's Lightning Talk entitled What the Perl Community Needs is a Good Enema. I've heard Gnat give this sort of talk before as repetition is often an effective learning tool, but this time he's getting closer to the truth. Mark Twain, a fellow Missourian and cynic, once said, "Familiarity breeds contempt...and children."

Perl has a seriously dysfunctional family at some levels; there are sacred cows; there are needless politics; people suffer sociopaths for their 'code' and other mystifying reasons. And, like any family with problems who don't want to be confrontational, they tend to focus on the abstract and far more benign symptoms of dysfunction instead which usually does little to fix the problems, but does succeed in shifting the uncomfortable point of focus elsewhere. CPAN is often a very popular target of this phenomenon since it's easy to do, generally vague and it carries little risk that anyone might actually force you to put your money where your mouth is. The problem is people, that's certain, but if there were any leadership in the community the problems would, if not disappear, would at least be far less destructive.

Let's return to July 2000, when TPC4 was in Monterey, CA and I was invited on short notice to attend what was billed as a meeting to attempt to draft something of a "Constitution" for the Perl community. I was intrigued since, at the time, the community was as bitter, ugly, and pissy as a crowd of open source nerds ever were. There were about 11 people in this meeting. After an hour or so of discussion about what could be done to effect some positive social change in the community, Jon Orwant showed up, tried to break the hotel stonewear mugs built to outlast puny humans and somehow the idea of Perl6 became the shining new light that would save Perl from stagnation and doom. I felt a bit betrayed since I had originally pitched up for something I felt was far more important and noone wanted to answer my question "Why?".

I told Jarkko and a few others on the way out of that meeting that they could count on P6 never coming to fruition until the deep and vast social problems in the community were addressed. It wasn't a popular comment, but I remained and still remain firm in my conviction. The P6 project, in spite of itself, turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to P5P since it drew most of the problem people to the 'community rewrite' and left the folks who actually wrote code to get things done. However, I don't think that was really the point of the exercise and it has taken what was a fractured community and simply added another gaping fissure which seems to belch sulphurous gases at regular intervals.

Perl6 presaged what I have come to call "the age of the press release" in the timeline of perl. People not only are legends in their own minds and believe their own press releases, but many projects since have been more concerned with the press release than the actual project itself. It is a culture that has seriously lost sight of what brought us all together in the first place. A culture so incredibly pleased with itself that it forgets that volunteering for a job used to mean that you did the work first without talking it to death. The Perl Foundation is the only place I've EVER gotten bitched out for pressing the issue of sending thank-you notes to donors. ALWAYS thank your donors and volunteers, I don't care if you are some hopped up nerd king who claims Asperger ate your social cortex. I'll admit that I was a real PITA about it, but after 3 years and little improvement it wasn't entirely unwarranted. I think the person behind that particular clusterfuck is on both of our lists of what Nathan calls "Oldbies" and I call "sociopathic MFs". This is the part where I start waving my arms, cussing wildly and ranting about TPF but it, too, is just a victim of the symptoms of a far larger problem.

I was on the White Camel Awards committee Gnat mentions and, with a few other folks, subscribed to the list late but arrived just in time to see the tail end of a rant followed by 2 or 3 people sending "I quit!" messages. I wondered what in the hell was going on, got the lowdown from someone in a private email and thought how typical for perl people to make painful that which could be so easy and possibly even pleasant. I had been prepared to stump for and debate over candidates when I agreed to participate, but the enthusisam was gone after that. I have, for many years, argued that the recipients of the awards should be selected by the people in the community instead of an awards cabal since they are touted as awards for service in the community. The awards are important and they should reflect the opinion of more than 4 or so people in a small cabal of friends who bothered to vote. However, I'm not entirely certain that the community at large could be bothered to care or vote these days. HJ gets it even though he identifies the absence of the inner onion entourage as a symptom in spite of the fact that the YAPC::EU conferences rarely get the 'names' and are the conferences to be at for the active developers in the past few years. He has noted well the necrosis.

While I think Gnat needs to repeat his talk more often and in a more pointed fashion, it needs to focus on the one thing that many of us have pointed at for a long while; Perl needs some strong leadership. It needs leaders who are less concerned about playing politics and making nice to everyone while quietly bitching in the corner and leaders who are willing to defile the sacred cows and who won't be left twisting in the wind alone. Just inviting people to rewrite web pages and join committees sounds a lot like the Perl6 "community rewrite of Perl" call to glory which did little to solve any of the social problems which are the soul of the malaise. Nothing will change until those who enjoy all the benefits of being leaders without actually leading, lead.

When we are young we generally estimate an opinion by the size of the person that holds it, but later we find that is an uncertain rule, for we realize that there are times when a hornet's opinion disturbs us more than an emperor's. -- Mark Twain

Green, Glowing Mouse Brains

Green, Glowing Mouse Brains 07/17/2004 06:08 PM
A recent CMU press release describes a breakthrough in the study of neurons in living animals. Alison Barth, a CMU neuroscientist, has developed a method to directly identify activated neurons in a living creature, genetically modified with a glowing green flourescent protein (GFP) and a gene called c-fos which turns on when a nerve cell is activated. Past methods such as MRI have allowed scientists to see only the general area of the brain in which activity was taking place but this new method shows precisely which neurons are active. The new method has been used to reverse-engineer the neural paths and activity in sensory data processing of mouse whiskers. This data could lead to better computer simulations of neural processes, among other things.

Well, it's kinda obvious if you look at it, isn't it? This particular ball is outside the MIT campus area in Boston, Massachusetts (USA), and for some unfathomable reason it looks like a really, really early version of a steam engine - you know, after they figured out how to make steam, but before they thought of pistons and chambers, and were just experimenting with putting different things on top of the steam.

Boston seems like a reasonably nice city: the centre is small enough to walk around, there is a wealth of restaurants, and while the architecture is sometimes horrendous, there is still enough 19th century stuff lying around to keep a traveler slightly amused.

(Whee, I just noticed that boston-online.com is run by Movable Type. That's a nice use for weblogging software: it does not look like a blog, or feel like a blog, but it has all the power of a good blog engine - like comments and trackbacks.)

Ernie Ball's strings are as ubiquitous in rock and roll as Fender guitars. According to the Associated Press, Ball developed his first strings in 1962 after "complaints from customers (at his guitar shop) that they couldn't find lighter-gauge, flexible strings for their rock 'n' roll instruments." Shortly after, the Slinkys were born. And, well, the guitar solo has never been the same. Link (Thanks, Vann)
