Fake pictures easily - Very impressive new tool

Some Asian researchers created and published a tool, PhotoSketch, which makes it very easy to create a photomontage with the desired content.


More information than what can be seen in the video is available on the researchers' website.

Slight Rain ;-)

Our ride to University today was abit more adventurous than other times... and the reason for it was that it was raining like hell. I took a short video and a picture to show what its like when there is a thunderstorm here in Singapore...

I couldn't see anything beyond the windshield, I hope the driver could.

Very clever and well made 3D facade projection

At the "Galerie der Gegenwart" in Hamburg, Germany, a team of artists has created a very nice, clever and astonishing wall projection. It seems almost real, an enhanced reality!

How to present and promote a product

Today I stumbled across a video where a designer of the new Tesla Sedan S and Tesla's founder Elon Musk talk about and explain the company's newest creation. I was fascinated how the video was able to transfer emotion about and dedication to the product.

[can be watched in HD]

While watching the Ad reminded me of Apple's video which made its rounds when the new Macbook Pro's were presented. In my honest opinion the Apple ad is even better than the Tesla one.

[can be watched in HQ]

Definitely two videos which can teach us something about how to present and promote a product. Enjoy the two Videos!
