“The Internet could become more three-dimensional — allowing Net surfers to virtually step into a site, walk around and talk to others — if Adobe Systems has its way with a Web-authoring software tool to be unveiled Monday.

“Flash is plagued by several inherent usability issues.

Most obvious of these technical hurdles, however, was the issue of Flash’s display size limitations.”
“The Sony VPL-VW10HT video projector is an LCD projector designed for the home. It is relatively compact (compared to normal televisions, rear projection TV’s, or CRT projectors) and yet can project a very large image (Sony says up to 300″ diagonally). This projector is also remarkably easy to set up and you get a pretty darn good image right out of the box. That is to say that you don’t *have* to do any expensive modifications or buy additional hardware or do lots of tweaking to get an exciting image.”
“Once, when a reporter asked Picasso what he would do if locked in a cell without paint or crayons, he replied, ‘I would draw with my spit.’ I guess some people just have to make art. Jasmine is one of those gifted people who makes art from whatever tools are at hand. While still in art school, she was assigned the job of ’scanner monitor’. After a time, she began asking her fellow students if she might scan not only their art and photography, but their face as well. She eventually collected almost 200 portraits.” Background.
