following up my drawing machine project proposal, I built a brush stroke in the first week to simulate what a brush should behave in my imagination. Basically I built it with the idea of simulating chinese calligraphy (without the splashing ink part) so first it should be used for writing, and it came out pretty [...]
Generative 3D Modeling paper: http://www.scribd.com/doc/279861/Generative-3D-Models Wikipedia entry of Generative Modeling Language: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generative_Modelling_Language Usual 3D file formats describe a virtual world in terms of geometric primitives. These may be cubes and spheres in a CSG tree, NURBS patches, a set of implicit functions, a consommé of triangles, or just a cloud of points. The term “generative [...]

seam carving for content-aware image resizing Effective resizing of images should not only use geometric constraints, but consider the image content as well. A seam is an optimal 8-connected path of pixels on a single image from top to bottom, or left to right, where optimality is defined by an image energy function. By repeatedly [...]

Gesture Studies on the street: Form Study:
Virtual reality is apparently not just about the vision, it’s always about using all possible help of the technology to trigger a similar (but altered) experience that is already stored in the human brain through all senses, including very subtle emotions. It’s a magic of bringing the memory to the present. It is not too [...]
1. Place one (large) drop of ink on a piece of paper; 2. Tilt the paper to push the ink towards the other corner of the paper but keep the ink from the edge of the paper; Contour Studies
Humon and Visualization of US Military Interventions are both in the show! You should come if you’re in New York at this time. Only one day left! Check it out on Monday, May 11, 2009 -9pm! http://itp.nyu.edu/show
