Hello dear readers. I know... I know... It's been a month. Sorry. I've been busy. So where have you been, you ask? I'm going to divert you from that question. It brings up an interesting point. What if you could see where people have been? What if positions had history? What if when you see someone sitting in a chair, you also saw where they came from before they came to that chair? That would be pretty cool eh? I suppose slugs leave a trail when they slide along, but I was hoping for something a little less slimy. Thanks to the wonders of digital technology, we can create these trails.
Dennis Hiynsky, professor at the Rhode Island School of Design, has made a set of videos that are really cool. He set up a stationary camera and recorded as birds flew around. Then, in post processing, he was able to show the paths of the birds movements through the sky. I think it is brilliant and beautiful myself. I think we need to try this effect on everything that moves... So, where was I? Check it out.
