“One of the basic situationist practices is the dérive [literally: “drifting”], a technique of rapid passage through varied ambiances. Dérives involve playful-constructive behavior and awareness of psychogeographical effects, and are thus quite different from the classic notions of journey or stroll.” Theory of the Dérive by Guy-Ernest Debord One of many goals of the dérive is to attempt to look at the city as a special instance of repressed desires. By letting-go of habitual paths and relati

Subsequently, an attempt was made at projecting the observed land use land cover in the next 14 years.

Hey Everyone, Just a (pretty basic) q for any experienced mappers out there, as I am diving into my first map attempt for UT2004. I've got a concept nailed down, and it's pretty straight forward, but the catch is, it's all in one room, and because of the nature of the geometry involved, the entire map will be imported from max.

1st: There are two interesting posts on the use of video by SMBs (small and medium sized businesses) as way to gain better visibility and higher rankings in organic search results. The 1st post is Greg Sterling here and the 2nd on the Kelsey Group blog here. I am sure this is good news for the likes of Spot Runner and Spotzer. 2nd: Google maps has launched directions without addresses functionality - this is cool and very useful… Even works in the UK. Lastly: While digging around on Google m

Last November, Lee Xian Jie claimed that they have made the world’s largest mind map in Singapore. They did a good job. Here I want to show you the largest mind map in China - or the (ex) largest mind map in the world It was made in Shanghai, China, November 2006, it’s been over one year since then, I think it’s still worthwhile to mention it again, since as far as I know no one has mentioned it in the English world - I should have done it, I didn’t have a English blog at that time though I

Tonight is the first (annual? monthly?) UMI Code Jam. Tim, Nino and Ted have been blazing for the past six hours and Rebecca and Ian have been there for moral support. If Umibot drank coffee, he’d be chugging it about now. We’re closing in on a full-color RESTful API and hope to (formally) announce it very soon…

This info is hidden in the colors. Colors are described by three numbers, our space is too. So in a color map one can have all the information about a shape. All shapes? No. The shapes described here are only shapes which can be obtained by transforming a sphere. No holes are allowed, so a teacup, with a handle is imp

Tuesday’s writing tip Experienced authors recognize that constant daily progress is the key to writing success. Daily progress is necessary so you can avoid writer’s block, finish your book on time, and have time left to promote and profit from your book. Writing as little as 30 or 45 minutes a day is often enough to keep your brain engaged and your project moving forward. Daily progress is easy when you work with a mind map that displays the work that remains to be done as well as your daily

First Look: MindManager 7, mind mapping app Posted on 2008 under Uncategorized | Comments are off 28 Jan Images are typically easier to remember than words because people think in pictures. When organizing thoughts, some use a traditional outlining method to arrange concepts using words. Mind mapping is a more efficient way to categorize the thought process, allowing the user to design a physical layout of their ideas with colors, locations, and pictu... « Previous Entries

La pastella Gennaio 29th, 2008 La pastella per frittura è generalmente conosciuta da tutti, ma non tutti sanno darle quel carattere di leggerezza che deve essere la caratteristica di una pastella ben fatta. A seconda della quantità di pastella che dovrete fare, mettete in una scodella o in una terrinetta qualche cucchiaiata di farina e stemperatela, per mezzo di una piccola frusta o di una forchetta, con acqua sufficiente, così a ottenere un complesso liscio e non molto denso. Stemperando la f

Well You may not believe this but I have actually been mapping, I have been working on gms_atoll updated the spawn room, added 3d skybox which I am going to make bigger and also the biggest thing it is compiled in the ep2 engine. So the water should work on gmod unlike other gmod maps at the moment where when you go underwater you get this fucked up black flickering. There is one problem though I am getting a line with nothing in it between the 3d skybox and map so there is a gap in the water

The build-up of the Niner Air 9 was complete Friday afternoon. I picked it up at Blue Sky and Rob finished the bike fit. There are still some adjustments to be made (stem height, bar length) but the bike was ready to go by 6:00. The first official ride of the Mapping Project occurred late Saturday. The weather was warm for January, a bit windy but rideable. The trails at Rabbit Mountain were dry where they faced south and where they avoided the path of melting snow. The spur section was qui

Value Stream Mapping - Common Mistakes During many first time Value Stream Mapping exercises, we have noticed some common mistakes. Many times when the mistake is made, it is not recognized and the Value Stream Mapping tool is called into question. It’s like trying to use excel as a word processor, it kind of works but you just don’t quite get the results you were expecting. So here are some of our observations. 1. You start to follow the people doing the work. We all start out underst

There’s an interesting post at webmapper that’s probably worth reading, especially if you are a techy interested in real estate - Neighbo(u)rhood 2.0 The new services and products launched by Urban Mapping, Zillow, and the Dutch CBS in the first weeks of January may herald a new trend that affects online mapping: Neighbourhood 2.0. It does not only mark a shift from the global to the local, but also a further step in the democratisation of cartography: opening up neighbourhood data to both the

Clusterer klingt genau richtig für meine Surveillance Map die immer langsamer wird: This object is an add-on for the Google Maps API. It lets you handle large numbers of markers, thousands if you like, without the slow performance you’d get if you tried displaying them via the maps API directly. Clusterer uses two techniques to accomplish this: Only the markers currently visible actually get created. If too many markers would be visible, then they are grouped together into cluster markers.

Go2, with offices in Santa Ana, prides itself on providing “local information.” Just after announcing a mobile Web site for the Winter X Games in Aspen last week, it announced a Los Angeles local site built for the UCLA Bruins. The company’s mobile-friendly Web pages offer basic information on topics such as golf, movies or the university’s cross-town rival USC. The latest page is devoted to the UCLA Athletic Department, offering: ways to buy tickets, get updated scores and schedules, read UCL
