On May 22nd of 2011 Joplin Missouri was devastated by a EF5 multi vortex tornado. This tornado is said to be the deadliest single twister since the weather service began keeping official records in 1950. Today as storms hit again in Missouri I came across this photo. I can only imagine what this must look like in person.

I just came across this pretty amazing video today. Some tech guru’s over at The Engineering Human-Computer Interaction (EHCI) Research Group have managed to use the front facing camera on the iPad 2 to track your head in 3D space creating a glasses-free monocular 3D display. Yeah… amazing!

I must say this would have to be the coolest piece of DJ equipment. Not only would it be fun to use but people would come out just to see you use it. It’s a visual display with out the VJ. I think a lot of people would pay some pretty big bucks for this setup. As far as I know this is only a prototype and is not for sale. I haven’t found any other information on the display. If you find out about anything new on this please leave a comment. It said to visit http://www.pablomartin.com/emulator/ for more info but I have yet to get the site to load. Interesting…
Update:
Looks like you can get in contact with someone about this product here: http://www.tokenexperience.com/, Thanks Yöyen.

Lagoa Multiphysics 1.0 – Teaser from Thiago Costa on Vimeo.
This is a new Multiphysics simulator by Lagoa Technologies Inc. As far as I know this is not available yet and my not be for sometime. As the title says, Teaser. Hopefully its not too far off. Either way its amazing to watch.
Thought this was worth showing. Not sure I would attempt this myself but they do make it looks easy. I wonder how they get it open in the very beginning when it opens like a car hood.
This is the archive for Jaw-Droppers. A group of amazing sites to remember and misc goodies.
