Augmented Reality: The Dragon Of San Fernando Valley

Here’s a rough example of an idea from an earlier post on why augmented reality excites me.
You could have communal art projects,  or art projects for the community. They could be dense and obscure  (hey, it’s art, nothing wrong with that!) or they could be simple and direct.  
You could have abstract projects,  such as a Mondrian-like [...]

Augmented Reality Alternate Interface – House Elf

Most interfaces to current augmented reality prototypes are pretty basic. Floating tags and other similar elements. They’re a lot like current desktop interfaces. Following the limitations of more or less static 2D environments.
But they don’t have to. Not on the platforms with more sophisticated graphics capabilities. Since there are real, live 3D environments [...]

Canon in CC

Say you had an idea for a group of characters and the universe in which you’d like to set them.
What would you do with that material?
The traditional method is to develop the stories yourself. Write prose, film screenplays, develop videogames, produce a TV series. Even in the most contemporary [...]

Project Euler, Problem 10, In Erlang – Sieveless Edition

Problem 10, more primes. Sum the all primes under 2,000,000.
Probably meant to force you out of brute force trial division.
Probably want you to use the Sieve Of Eratosthenes.
And I thought about it.
Then tried trial division for fun.
Exactly 1 minute run time.
Done!
Heh.
Looking at future [...]

Project Euler, Problem 9, in Erlang

Problem 9, and more brute-forcey goodness for the solution.
“A Pythagorean triplet is a set of three natural numbers, a < b < c, for which,
a^(2) + b^(2) = c^(2)
There exists exactly one Pythagorean triplet for which a + b + c = 1000.
Find the product abc.”
I’m not totally happy with this one. I’m positive [...]

Project Euler, Problem 8, in Erlang

Problem 8 is another one of those problems that’s pretty simple to approach. The only even minor twist is that it’s probably best to use a string in this one. But easily enough done.
Some on the P.E. discussion boards even did this one with no programming, just a visual scan of the number.
“Find [...]

Digital Companions – The Meaning Of Lionhead’s Milo Project

I recently posted an exploration of the elements of the infamous Milo demo from E3. That post primarily focused on what took place in the demo, and if all was as it was represented to be.
But let’s assume for a moment everything in the Milo demo was “real”, that it all was what [...]
