An Informal Catalogue of Slit-Scan Video Artworks and Research - Golan Levin and Collaborators
by karlcow
Slitscan imaging techniques are used to create static images of time-based phenomena. In traditional film photography, slit scan images are created by exposing film as it slides past a slit-shaped aperture. In the digital realm, thin slices are extracted from a sequence of video frames, and concatenated into a new image.
Bart's Preinstalled Environment (BartPE) bootable live windows CD/DVD
by m.meixide
& 30 others
Bart's PE Builder helps you build a "BartPE" (Bart Preinstalled Environment) bootable Windows CD-Rom or DVD from the original Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 installation/setup CD, very suitable for PC maintenance tasks.
It will give you a complete Win32 environment with network support, a graphical user interface (800x600) and FAT/NTFS/CDFS filesystem support. Very handy for burn-in testing systems with no OS, rescuing files to a network share, virus scan and so on.
This will replace any Dos bootdisk in no time!

De rien! Vous devez juste avoir installé le dernier pack Xlobby. Pour plus de transparence, voici ce qu'il contient pour les films: -Xlobby bien entendu avec un skin FR compatible (Xmedia2+games) -Ant movie Catalog et son fichier movies.amc contenant votre base de donnée. Ce dernier se trouve dans C:\Program Files\Ant Movie Catalog\Catalogs\movies.amc -Xparameter pour l'import massif de films dans amc

by decembre
Il s’agit de proposer aux usagers des machines permettant de scanner puis de s’envoyer des documents par mail, les télécharger sur une clé USB ou encore se les envoyer par ftp. En France, L’entreprise i2s, où travaille un des meilleurs spécialistes de l’édition numérique, j’ai nommé Alain Pierrot (qu’on supplie tous de réouvrir un blog, après la fermeture d’APSED) propose aujourd’hui le e-scan (sorti en février 2009) : Première station de numérisation compacte et autonome destinée à un usage du libre service, parfaitement adaptée aux besoins grand public, Bibliothèques. Doté d’une interface graphique particulièrement intuitive et conviviale, il regroupe sur un écran tactile 15″ toutes ses commandes, la prévisualisation en temps réel et l'affichage des scans effectués. Il permet ainsi d'obtenir instantanément l’accès aux services « scan to web », « scan to USB », « scan to network », « scan to print », de livres ou documents reliés (épaisseur 10 cm maximum, jusquau format A3++).

Linkoder (QRCode) - Cool Greasemonkey Script adds Barcodes for each link on a web page
by decembre
Linkoder (QRCode) - Cool Greasemonkey Script adds Barcodes for each link on a web page I just found a cool greasemonkey script on userscripts.org by a person called Vorn. The script is called Linkoder (QRCode) - it can basically add Barcodes for each link on any web page. Its really useful for mobile phone users, with barcode reader applications on their phones, such as the N95 which comes with a barcode reader app as standard, as it saves them typing in long URLs, instead they can just scan the barcode on their PC screen, and then browse directly to the link with their phones web browser. you can get the script here: Install scripthttp://userscripts.org/scripts/show/24580

OilCan: Greasemonkey on steroids for Android
by karlcow
OilCan inserts some powerful buttons into normal websites, and that power comes from Android intents. We didn't write a barcode scanner or the radar app into OilCan, but using intents we can launch those apps with parameters. We can request the Barcode Scanner app to scan something and return the code to us, or launch the Radar app with a specific lat/lon.
