カツタタカシごっこ | Ubuntu LinuxをSDHCにインストールする
Ubuntu LinuxをSDカードやUSBメモリ等のフラッシュディスクにインストールする場合、LiveCD内のinstall_usb.shを使うのが一般的ですが、４GB以上のフラッシュディスクを持っているならば、HDDへインストールするように、フラッシュディスクへUbuntuをインストールできます。普通にインストールすると2.5GBのディスクを使用します。インストール時の注意点としては、フラッシュディスク単体でシステムを完結させるために、ブートローダのインストール先をフラッシュディスクにしてやります。そうすることによりフラッシュディスク単体でシステムを構築できます。

Experiential Typography | One Day Poem Pavilion | Jiyeon Song
The results of an extensive exploration with shadows, the One Day Poem Pavilion demonstrates the poetic, transitory, site-sensitive and time-based nature of light and shadow.
Using a complex array of perforations, the pavilion’s surface allows light to pass through creating shifting patterns, which–during specific times of the year–transform into the legible text of a poem. The specific arrangements of the perforations reveal different shadow-poems according to the solar calendar: a theme of new-life during the summer solstice, a reflection on the passing of time at the period of the winter solstice. The time-based nature of the poem–and the visitor’s time-based encounters with it–allow viewers to have different experiences either seeing a stanza of the poem or getting the whole poem. All of these possible experiences are equally valuable and have meanings unique to the individual. This technique has the potential for producing particular effects and meanings within an architectural environment. Without the use of a source of power other than the sun, this project uses light and shadow to push the boundaries of communication and experiential delight.
John Resig - Processing.js
As a sort-of reverse birthday present I've decided to release one of my largest projects, in recent memory. This is the project that I've been alluding to for quite some time now:
I've ported the Processing visualization language to JavaScript, using the Canvas element.
I've been working on this project, off-and-on now, for the past 7 months - it's been a fun, and quite rewarding, challenge. The full scope of the project can be broken down into two portions:

TIBSOFT - (StepTree v1.8)
StepTree is a 3D file system visualizer. It draws on ideas from the last 15 or so years of research on a type of space filling visualization called Tree-Maps (first introduced in the early nineties by Ben Shneiderman). StepTree is basically a Tree-Map extended into three dimensions where the size of files and directories is mapped to area in the visualization. Thus the area of a directory in the visualization is an aggregate of the sizes of all its descendants (subdirectories and files).
Technische Universiteit Eindhoven: Info
by 1 other Standard treemaps often lead to thin rectangles. We have developed a new method to display files : Squarified treemaps. The screen is subdivided such that rectangles approach squares as closely as possible. The screenshot gives an example.
