Giant Easter Egg

Giant Easter Egg 04/09/2004 04:08 PM
This giant Ukrainian Easter Egg (pysanka) was built in 1975 in Vegreville, Canada by (then) Univ. Utah Computer Science Professor Ronald Resch. Interesting egg factoids can be found here--including that it swivels like a weather vane. Vegreville has an annual festival. More images of egg here. The Vegreville Pysanka was the first physical structure completely designed with computer-aided geometric modeling software. There is a good description here of the complex geometry involved. It's based on a technique (PDF) he developed and patented for folding a flat material (i.e. sheet metal) into flexible surfaces. Ronald Resch has had an interesting career.

Lift and Reach and Hold That Pose, and Advance to the Next Level

"Ever greater weight loss - rather than a chance to battle bigger monsters - is one goal for players of Yourself!Fitness, a video game under development for Microsoft's Xbox. The new title, aimed at women, features a computer-generated personal trainer who guides users through a customized set of exercises and diets.

Players must reach certain goals to advance to the next level. The program creates a fitness plan for each person based on height, weight and other characteristics. The game's virtual coach, Maya, then guides users through a subset of 600 possible exercises, congratulating and encouraging them when they achieve their goals.

The creators of Yourself!Fitness at ResponDesign, a game developer based in Portland, Ore., think their new title is a natural successor to exercise videos and DVD's, which continue to sell more than 30 million units a year, the company's co-founder, Ted Spooner, said....

After the game's release this fall, the company expects to make a Sony Playstation version available at the end of the year, and to sell an Xbox Live version in 2005 that will let participants use a wireless headset to talk to each other during the game.

'Users will be able to create an online community to discuss each other's accomplishments and chat while working out,' Mr. Spooner said. 'This will be a virtual gym.'

Company executives expect the game, which cost millions to develop, to sell several hundred thousand units. Assuming that happens, ResponDesign is ready to create spinoff titles focusing on Pilates and Yoga." [New York Times: Technology]

I'm surprised it's taken this long to happen, although I suppose I'm most surprised that the company didn't start with the Playstation for its EyeToy accessory. Hey, you could be right there in the video with Richard Simmons or Jane Fonda!

It's the most awful thing that can happen. And what is a toy? A toy is to have fun with, to amuse yourself. Why are we telling our children that you can have fun with war?. . ."

Artist arrested on Easter Island

Artist arrested on Easter Island 04/19/2005 11:05 AM
David Pescovitz: Canadian sculptor Bill Vazan, 71, is accused by Easter Island authorities of moving small rocks from archaeologically-significant sites to construct land artworks. The island's head of criminal investigations, Carlos Soto, says that Vazan is not under arrest but must stay put while under investigation. He could be penalized $520 or up to three years in jail. From Reuters:

Soto said Vazan had volunteered to pay $1,000 for the damage. The sculptor paid 20-year-old Genaro Gatica, an Easter Island resident, $25 a day to help carry stones.

Vazan, in interviews with local media, said that Gatica was supposed to help him identify sacred stones so he could avoid using them.

"He went in front of me saying this rock yes, these others no. ... Now it appears that two of the rocks I used had value, but it was never my intention to cause harm," he told La Tercera newspaper.
