so what to do in between programming, fiddling around with milk and basic nutrition? Yes, doing fun things!
Last week i had the amazing opportunity to play the Wii for the first time (after the huge disappointment that my DELL Bluetooth stack doesn't support non-encrypted connections...) and i was...mildly fascinated. Golf it is! The game i will get one for. Golf. But the better one, that comes out in March.
Still, it was a fun thing to do on an awesome weekend where things really came together. Pleasure to work with people that way. Next time i'll take pictures of everyone...
But now for the photographic evidence of people enjoying themselves...
And just when i got back home i felt the need to do some more advanced research in terms of new and fun interfaces. Did you know that the Guitar Controller has a sensor built in that measures its rotation? I think it's an inertia sensor or something. Anyway, we found out that you can engage Starpower when turning the guitar vertical!
And now it's back to work. Things need to be written, sketches are to be made, (virtual) Guitars have to be built and a Camera has to be tracked smoothly. Can anyone explain to me (not just tell me how, but really explain) how to convert an Integer into two Bytes? I mean, i know it works, but i'm kinda stuck with this whole Bitshifting thing...

The Milkscanner is finally finished enough to see some results. You can go have a look at the moviesandbox website.
Please let me know what you think, or if you have any nice Action figures to be scanned in. Now there's just a thousand others things i should attend to...
After a somewhat disoriented start into the year i slowly get settled. There's tons to do, so it's about time.
Though, guitar hero still calls me - as do the second season of Avatar and the episodes of Battlestar Galactica that i missed from the third season...
Here are some impressions of Life in Ramsau over new year's
and some happy friends doing fun things with a playstation whose power adapter had been forgotten at first...
