Tilt-Shift + Neat Music = Goodness

r3dux | September 15, 2009

Was looking for some tilt-shift stuff to show in class a couple of weeks back and stumbled across this video, with a catchy little song (which you’ll find yourself humming!) by Megan Washington.

Alan Turing FTW

r3dux | September 13, 2009

British mathematician, crypto-analyst and founder of computer science Alan Turing (he of Turing Test fame) has been given an official apology by the British Government for his persecution for being gay.

AlanTuring

Great, great bloke who did an incredible amount for the Allies in WW2 with his work on breaking German cyphers – all respect is due.

From the Number 10 response:

“Thousands of people have come together to demand justice for Alan Turing and recognition of the appalling way he was treated. While Turing was dealt with under the law of the time and we can’t put the clock back, his treatment was of course utterly unfair and I am pleased to have the chance to say how deeply sorry I and we all are for what happened to him. So on behalf of the British government, and all those who live freely thanks to Alan’s work I am very proud to say: we’re sorry, you deserved so much better.”

Hear, hear.

Imperial Lord Vader Says…

r3dux |

I saw this image over on 9gag and thought it was awesome! Only, mild garlic tabasco? Shurely shome mishtake? Decided to get my GIMP on and modify it accordingly…

LackOfSauce-small

The GIMP .xcf original is available here, with a couple of layers worth of other things I tried (James Squire Golden Ale, a photo of a tabasco sauce bottle [as opposed to a painting]). The version I settled on for the bottle was pulled from this (link dead so removed) painting (more here), to try to blend in a little more than a photo would with the cartoon Vader.

Props to the French bloke who did the painting, and whoever created the original Vader cartoon. All copyrights are owned by their respective overlords etc.
