Dance, familiar. Dance... 12/11/2003 02:34 PM

An interesting line about the selves manufactured by spies (that seems to me to have currency for all people who have cause to narrativise their lives in one way or another) from John Le Carré's rather blandly-titled (but also rather good) new novel Absolute Friends:

But who is Mundy Three, when Mundys One and Two have gone to bed? Who is this third person who is neither one of the other two, who lies awake while they sleep, and listens for the chimes of country bells he doesn't hear? He is the silent spectator. he is the one member of the audience who doesn't applaud the performances of his two familiars. He is made up of all the odd bits of his life that are left over after he has given the rest away.

Bobby Fuller< /a> was a Texas based rock and roll singer best known for the immortal rebel anthem &quot;I Fought The Law,&quot;. Considered by many to be the heir to Buddy Holly as the king of Texas Rock, he built on Holly's style with songs like the aforementioned &quot;...Law,&quot; &quot;Jenny Lee,&quot; &quot;Love's Made A Fool Of You,&quot; and the 2 1/2 minute masterpiece &quot;Let Her Dance.&quot; And then it ended, at age 22, in very weird circumstances. Over the years, interest in Fuller and his work has ebbed and flowed, and plenty of archival material surfaced, but the mystery of his death remains unsolved, although many have speculated. Ann odd end for a footnote character in rick history, but who was bound for more

Kickass Kung Fu: Like Dance Dance
Revolution for martial artists
06/24/2005 06:25 PM
Cory Doctorow: Kickass Kung Fu is a video-game in which you use real martial-arts moves to control an on-screen kung-fu fighter in order to best both human and AI opponents.
The game takes place on a 5 meter cushioned playfield suitable for martial arts and acrobatics training. Using custom computer vision technology, you are taken inside an artificial reality where the normal laws of physics no longer apply. Your movements are exaggerated so that you can easily dodge your opponent's bullets by jumping five meters in the air and landing behind his back. Using the dual projected screens, one at each end of the playfield, you can also continue by counter-attacking your stupefied enemy from the behind.

Dance Dance Revolution

Cory Doctorow: American health insurers are working with obesity researchers to encourage children to play Dance Dance Revolution on home consoles with dance-mats as a way of reversing childhood obesity and the concomitant health costs later in life.
Jones is one of 85 children in an at-home study trying the popular Dance Dance Revolution video game to boost their activity. The study is being done by West Virginia's public employees insurance group in hopes it will lead to better health and lower costs.

Jones lost about 10 pounds by changing his diet. Now, after two weeks playing the game, he has lost another 10.

Play Dance Dance Revolution... Save On
Insurance
04/04/2005 01:54 PM
There have been discussions over the past few years about the problem of childhood obesity and how video games that force kids to be active may be at least part of the solution. While going outside and doing something is probably better, if they must be staring at a screen, they might as well be active about it. It appears that one insurance company has decided to test this out and is running a study by giving Dance, Dance Revolution to kids in an effort to make them lose some weight. While others have noted the aerobic nature of the game (and the game apparently has a calorie burning counter as an option), this appears to be the first insurance company promoting the game. Next thing you know, your car insurance rates will rise if you play Grand Theft Auto...

This CNN piece follows the tales of formerly supersized boy and girl geeks who shed *lots* of unwanted weight playing the wacky Japanese electronic game "Dance Dance Revolution." In DDR, players stomp around on a grid of brightly lit squares while hyperfast techno music blares at them from a video display unit. There's also a home version, which sells for under US$50.
As she cooled herself in front of a fan at a video arcade, two teenage boys danced on a machine nearby. Their sneakers pounded out a staccato rhythm at a pace so fast that "Lord of the Dance"'s Michael Flatley would be envious.

Not everyone sees dramatic results. Seventeen-year-old Justin Meeks says his body is more toned, but his weight hasn't changed. He's pleased to point out, though, that his dancing skills have helped him get girls. "Two. I'm guilty of that," Justin said with a grin as he watched friends play DDR.

Yoz has posted a great account of his encounter with a touring clade of pan-European Dance Dance Revolution obsessives:
"We're a group of DDR players in Norway." Do they play other bemani games? "No, just DDR." He points to the guy he was playing with, now off the machine and chatting to his girlfriend. "He's from Sweden, he has a DDR group there too." The machine is now in the control of the third chap, a large-ish bloke with shoulder-length hair. "He has a group in France, but they play all kinds of music games." Do you guys play competitively? "Sometimes... like tomorrow. It's why we're all here - there's a big contest at the Namco arcade in Westminster. There'll be players from four different countries. It's pretty big."

The Google Dance


The Google Dance 06/12/2002 06:22 AM
What is the Google Dance? LinkTree says: Once in a month Google calculates the pagerank of each page and changes the serp (search enigne result pages) for all keywords. The Google Dance is called the time between the start and the end of an update. In that time you get different results on www.google.com, www2.google.com and www3.google.com. Normally the Google Dance took about 4 days. The best time to put new pages online is during the Google-Dance. If you let too much time lapse between the completion of the update, and the publication of new content, you may reduce the amount of new content that will be included in the next update. Woz at WebmasterWorld offers this alternate explanation: They put some pages in, They take some pages out, They calculate the PageRank, Then they shake it all about, They wait until the full moon Then they mix the servers up, Thats what its all about. If you're really interested, WebmasterWorld keeps a chart of Google Update History.

The Dance of Death starts


The Dance of Death starts 03/19/2003 10:25 PM
I listened to Bush's speech tonight with increasing disgust. The lost opportunities, had he been more interested in disarming Hussein, and less interested in proving that the US can dominate everybody, sickened me. Made me want to send him a pretzel. More lies, repeated over and over again. And lest anyone take seriously his declaration that military action could be avoided if the Tyrant Hussein fled the country, American officials in the Middle East are already saying "Even if Saddam Hussein leaves Iraq within 48 hours, as President Bush demanded, allied forces plan to move north into Iraqi territory," Bush is determined to get his war, and Hussein is determined to give it to him. And, as Marine Major Chris Hughes, said, "The first image of this war will define the conflict," Now we have marines in charge of the most important part of the war, what America's image is, for George Bush's re-election campaign. So the dance of the death starts. For my image, one of the works of the great Mexican artist, Jose Posada, seemed particularly appropriate today. Click to see a larger version....
