azo: full-body martial arts motion controller

I play a lot of video games on all gaming platforms. I was skeptical about the Kinect last year but the whole controller free full-body motion experience turned out to be enjoyable.

I also found out that good old fashion wired controllers already support fully-body motions. In fact these old controllers are pretty fun to play with, even if you don't own a console or a TV. (via kotaku)


mondo: a jubileumi, egyben ötvenedik szám tartalmából

A mai naptól a Relay, az In Medio és a Tesco újságárusainál kapható egy triplapresszó áráért (790) az új Mondo, erről havi szinten bővebb híradást fogtok kapni, mert a szerkesztőség promógremlinjeit elvitte a busójárás meg a sugárban bele a tízezer éves hamvvederbe. A május kimaradt, mert az én promógremlinjeimet is elvitte a, ellenben ez az ötvenedik számunk, úgyhogy vegyétek.

A tartalomvázlatot most nem olvasom fel, kattintsátok meg az éppen aktuálist, ott vannak screenshotok meg részletes tartalomjegyzék, amiből - mint hivatásos és nemkívánt orvosotok és ügyvédetek - személy szerint a Versus elemzést, a japán űrkutatást, a Witcher 2-t és a D, a vámpírvadászt javaslom mélyebb fogyasztásra. (Igen, mélyebb. Get over it.). Ellenben tényleg elérkeztünk az ötvenedik számhoz.

Mi lenne, ha...

...végre összevonnám az összes blogom és elkezdeném kiposztolni az összes anyagot, vért és savat, amit eddig a diplomatikus udvariasság jegyében kihagytam az életemből?


mater suspiria vision - seduction of the armageddon witches

-This new video is written and directed by Diego Barrera and takes the themes of Mater Suspiria Vision to an exciting new level. Two of my personal favorite directors, Parajanov and Jodorowsky come to mind as we move away from CdX’s appropriated cult-horror and into Barrera’s vision which delves into the realm of Transcendental Cinema.-

the backwater gospel

Bachelor film project 2011 from The Animation Workshop. As long as anyone can remember, the coming of The Undertaker has meant the coming of death. Until one day the grim promise fails and tension builds as the God fearing townsfolk of Backwater wait for someone to die. (Thx, dsila!)


aldious: little devil butterflies (yes, ageha-kei)

The members dig video games and were there to check out the game's co-op mode. Aldious is an up-and-coming girls rock band. That's not a first for Japan, but from first appearances, they'd look more at home in a hostess bar. Make no mistake, these gals rock.
Formed in Osaka in 2008, indie band Aldious began with Rami on vocals and Yoshi on guitar, but had fleshed out its current line-up by last year. The group released its first CD single themselves, self-recorded and distributed in Osaka music shops, where it quickly sold out. Last fall, the girls released their debut full-length album, Deep Exceed.

headhunterz: new monthly podcast "hard with style" breaks euphoria barrier

Last summer we found Qlimax and the sound of the summer (not just last summer but any summer, actually) was the 2009 set of Headhunterz. And if we thought it broke the euphoria barrier, we thought it wrong. This time there's another release Willem made that's gonna make you smile inside your pants, a monthly cast called Hard With Style showcasing all his latest favourites (and of course, a few of his own releases). Something to tune into every month - this one is gorgeously supported by jumpstyle4ever! (Oh yeah. Headhunterz on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, check out his things scattered all over the fantastic interwebs!)


damage's razor coated candies #08

Hello. This is another birthday. Apparently it's the end of another hexadecimal cycle. According to my friends, the very first one. And who am I to disagree with vanity. Hehe. Seriously. We're back with another Razor Coated Candies, a heartbreakingly versatile compilation of music you can make friends and enemies with. This week brings it's less goth and more hipster electro (nah, just kidding) and I've gone to lengths to cut off previous ties to anything morose, just because I didn't have the time to get down to the bottom of the well now. By the way, have a nice week.

negyedéves jegyzet, magánhangzó-harmóniák

Legendás vowel harmony jegyzet negyedévből, csak azért rakom ki ide, mert a Facebookon nem látszódik teljes méretben és semmi sem kiolvasható belőle. Szóval péntek délután öt, ELTE angolszak, ülünk a Polgárdi magánhangzó-harmónia óráján, amin olyanokat tanítanak nekünk, hogy absztrakt síkon (itt már elvesztettem az olvasóim felét) miért jó az pl. a magyar nyelvben, hogy asszonynak, de az már nem, hogy asszonynek (itt a többi olvasót is elvesztettem). Leosztja a táblát két félre, felírja ugyanazt a szót kétszer, azt mondja, szóval ha ezt a szabályrendszert vesszük alapul, akkor kinéz ennek a szónak a belső hangzóstruktúrája így, de egy másik szabályrendszerrel meg teljesen máshogy néz ki és akkor máshogy is tudnánk toldalékolni, ez hatalmas probléma. Egen, mondom, a probléma az inkább az, amikor lángol a ház, anyád bentég, te meg lentről nézed és nem tudsz segíteni, AZ probléma, a táblán az a szar az sehol nem közelít a problémához. (Tudod, idegeskedő olvasó, egészen addig, amíg valakinek nincs veszélyben az élete, addig nem éri meg rajta idegeskedni, akkor oda kell menni és meg kell oldani.) Filmes jelenet, mert a hirtelen beülő csendben minden jobban hangzik hetven decibellel. Ez is. Bill átment a félévin, én méteres karóval, mondom a tanárnak, ezt miért? Azt mondja, szerinted? A jegyzet a lelkiállapotunkat ábrázolja, a tisztelt tanárnőnek meg innen is, hogy a probléma még mindig ott kezdődik, ahol emberélet van kockán. Viszont megnyugtathatom, hogy nem lett belőlem nyelvész. Ennek a világ női hangosan és egyszerre örülnek mind. További kellemes napot a város szívéből mindenkinek.


Edgar Davey - Singularity (experimental video with Kattoo soundtrack)

The project started in the end of May 2011, when I contacted Kattoo, asking if I could use his music for my animation. After getting his approval , I was jumping and dancing around my laptop in joy. If only I knew how much trouble I just got myself into. I am kidding of course, however every step of creation was hard. First of all when I decided what I want to do considering animation, I had no clue how to approach my idea. But thanks to the internet and people out there I was slowly getting my answers. Another problem was in hardware. My old Macbook was working days and nights. I was taking me about 30-35 hours to render one scene. And if I found out that I made a mistake somewhere, I had to do everything all over again. (via vimeo)


Atari Teenage Riot's "Is This Hyperreal?" and the Budapest live

It's been eleven years since the collective anger persona of Atari Teenage Riot took the sonic equivalent of a violent blow to your head with a diamond drill. But they're back now with Is This Hyperreal? and through the exclusive stream on NME, the new album is basically everywhere. And Alec Empire has just retweeted this video compilation. Which is yet another reason to go out and buy this album when it comes out in June (June 7th, to be precise). It is loud, splintered and hysterically loud! Below - some 45 minutes of the Budapest gig. I'll need to get both my head and body around this album but thankfully half the office is down after getting to Codebreaker, so it officially qualifies as a sonic weapon.


Tron 3D light projection skateboarding

Thanks to everyone who headed down to the first night of our "TRON: Legacy" event yesterday. Here's the footage - V.cool. To see this in person you can head down to the IMAX entrance at the Melbourne Museum tonight or tomorrow night from 9-11pm. (via WaltDisneyStudiosAU)


so i bought myself an original sinred (yes, a bike)

Life begins outside your comfort zone. So I went out after years (decades, more like it) and bought myself an original Sinred. Which is a bike. Which was hand-crafted by a friend of mine who's also called Sinred, now there's a loop for you to get out of. Re-hacking my brain and dropping down shackles of a few years (decades, more like it) is fun. I should do this more often. Thanks to Sinred, Tlvlpierre, Miss Toyclouds and Amelia Arsenic. You helped hack the universe! Again! (Contact Sinred. He will make bikes of pleasure for you.)

Jaigen, csak hogy magyarul is kint legyen. Szóval, az élet nyilván a komfortzónádon kívül indul el igazán, a jó történetek, az igazán emberi és mosolykeltő és limitbréker (ezt most találtam ki egy kávé után, úgyhogy elnézed, nincs más esélyed) történetek akkor jönnek. Szóval évek (dehogy, évtizedek) után mentem és vettem magamnak egy eredeti Sinredet. Ami egy bringa. Amúgy. (Itt az ismerőseim elnyújtottan üvöltenek. Jól teszik. Én is azt tettem.) Amit egy régi barátom szerelt össze. Aki szintén Sinred. (Ugye itt nyilván ki kell kerülni a logikai hurokból. Hehe.) Úgyhogy újrahúroztam az agyam és ledobtam pár évnyi (évtizednyi) limitet. És imádtam. Gyakrabban kéne valóságot törni. Köszönet Sinrednek, Tlvlpierrenek, Miss Toycloudsnak és Amelia Arsenicnek, akikkel könnyebb volt meghackelni a világegyetemet. Megint. (Beszéljetek Sinreddel, szerel nektek vanderfult.)



Chromaroma: when locative looks really good, for a change


Chromaroma's a London-based locative game based around your daily travels by Tube and other notable means of transportation - similar to a Foursquare leaderboard, only with more missions and achievements and ways to get points. It also feature area capturing (so it obviously has competing groups signified by red, yellow, green and blue) and Pat Cadigan is also a major player. How better can this get? (Thx to Antal Solti for sending this over!)
