Thought for the Dazed

I've had to give up that Distance Learning course as I was having trouble seeing the teacher.

Funky Kinect Camera Fun

SnapShot

So I’m playing around with the Kinect camera. What you see above is one of the more interesting effects you can get with it. I got this by mistake, but I’m so impressed with the effect that I’ve left it in the program. I think it shows off my sweater rather well..

B Grade Radio

Mystery

so - what is it?

Bought a “B Grade” radio today. Turned out that the ‘B’ stood for “Broken” in this case. Fortunately they had another one in stock to swap it with, for which the B seems to stand for “basically the same thing but a lot cheaper”.

The Lego Advent Calendar

Lego Advent Calendar Day 2

I’m now a Lego VIP. Perhaps the oldest one that they have. I’ve got a plastic card with a picture of a little Lego man on it and they send me frequent emails about bargain deals in plastic bricks.

Anyhoo, these are the first two day’s worth from the Lego Advent Calendar. Hope there is a Lego Death Star behind the door for the 24th….

VideoBash on December 12th

VideoBash

Christophe dropped into my first year lecture today to promote the upcoming Videobash at the university. It’s a co-production between ComSoc and the university film society. Movies, video games, fancy dress. Looks like fun. I think they still have some tickets left. You can buy them next week on the 7th, 8th and 9th in the union.

On a related note, you can get the Final Fantasy movie – The Spirits Within on Blu-ray for 6.49 on Amazon, which has got to be a bargain.

Nothing wrong with Cardiff

Somehow reed.co.uk seem to think I want another job. They keep sending me emails about jobs that “match” me. Today it is an “Assistant Manager in Cardiff”. Frankly I’m not convinced.
