Busy days ahead for Quadratura. Off to vbites this morning to adjust some veg, London tonight, perhaps Bath at the end of the week. #
Vbites veg up and running (power cut?) Must install a big red reset button. Heading back to work on the new PatchBox boardroom demo. #
Two very interesting meetings in London. Doing a little people watching at Victoria before heading back to Lewes. Much to chew over. #
@StephenBrighton Oh, thanks for that. In t’diary! in reply to StephenBrighton #
Sitting in the beer garden of the Lion and Lamb in Bath. Just been to see the egg room. Serious geometry correction required. Go PatchBox! #
Pretty sure I’ve reached that important “bored of being hungover” stage of the break-up. Let the healing begin! #
@jimonlight Moon is really good, if you can find it. Just listening to the soundtrack now, which is also excellent. in reply to jimonlight #
@nicklevine Yeah, got my ticket online. Must remember to print that sucker out… in reply to nicklevine #
Ignoring the nice bank holiday weather for a few hours, instead working on video camera 3d re-projection… #
Very nice cream teas in Glynde, but the service is so slow as to be almost static (5 tables full constitutes a ‘rush’ apparently…) #
Reminded what Lewes can be on a Saturday night: trapped between worlds of “not want” and being told you have a moviestar face by strange men #

Little bit blind (temporarily, hopefully) after projecting video onto his eyes on purpose. Ah R&D, it’s sometimes a dangerous business… #
Possible to use modified pyramid image segmentation with canny edge detection to fill in the holes? Would depend on input quality, I guess.. #
Listening to Tower of Power and downloading my brain into FreeMind. #
Ouch, just got hit in the head by a falling Dell Axim 51v with large capacity battery. Better my head than the floor, I guess… #
Experimenting with MS Speech API by playing the audio from Dr Strangelove into the recogniser. Mildly amusing but ultimately useless results #
Just hit a large roll of graph paper with my fist. In your FACE graph paper! #
Deep into planning our first guerrilla video projection session in London on Monday night… Mwahaha… #
@vj_anomolee All will be revealed in good time, my friend… in reply to vj_anomolee #
Mmm, 2pm – must be time for breakfast, yay! #
@nicklevine Good find! See you there! in reply to nicklevine #
The team is prepped for Monday night. Four men, in a van, with advanced technology, and mischief in mind. #
@nicklevine Will do, chap! in reply to nicklevine #
@StephenBrighton Like the look of the Iydea photo exhibition – is there a private view/event? #
@StephenBrighton Very kind of you, thanks! in reply to StephenBrighton #
Heading to Brighton to check out new exhibition at Prescription Art, followed by racking up the uncomfortably weird dial to 11. #
Listening to the recording of the last Belle Atmos gig – shame we didn’t get footage of the visuals, says visuals man: http://bit.ly/18bXlq #
@nicklevine Haven’t been up so much of recent since last job was in Hove but we’ve meetings in town a plenty coming up. in reply to nicklevine #
Going to have to refactor a large chunk of PaintBox – needs a floating point drawing buffer to get the nuance I need! #
Oh, that was easier than I expected then! Just got to add a cursor on the streamed output and it’ll be ready to go… #
Dammit, seemed to have messed up my nice Bresenham implementation. Just can’t leave things alone, me… #
@StephenBrighton Lovely, thanks again. in reply to StephenBrighton #
With a couple of hints from Ramesh Raskar I’ve finally got augmented geometry alignment working in PatchBox. Super yay! #
Projective alignment and projection working, off shortly to Lighthouse to see work and talk by Tina Gonsalves in #Brighton #
