STEVEN SODERBERGH RE-SCORED ‘RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK' AND MADE IT BLACK AND WHITE BECAUSE CINEMATOGRAPHY

As a huge cinematography buff, I’ve always been interested in the process of film-making and stuff like this fascinates the bajeezus out of me.

From Soderbergh’s blog:

So I want you to watch this movie and think only about staging, how the shots are built and laid out, what the rules of movement are, what the cutting patterns are. See if you can reproduce the thought process that resulted in these choices by asking yourself: why was each shot—whether short or long—held for that exact length of time and placed in that order? Sounds like fun, right? It actually is. To me. Oh, and I’ve removed all sound and color from the film, apart from a score designed to aid you in your quest to just study the visual staging aspect.

You can watch Steven Soderbergh’s entire re-cut and re-scored version of Raiders of the Lost Ark right here.

An incredible, mind-boggling performance art piece using projection mapping from GMUNK:

Box explores the synthesis of real and digital space through projection-mapping onto moving surfaces. The short film documents a live performance, captured entirely in camera.

Great video on the genesis of GitHub from @defunkt - it's not always what you think that will get you to success. Awesome, entertaining, and relevant.

I can't tell if this confirms the Cold War is over, or if it has just begun again in earnest. Well done. Amazing video for the ages. Wonder what Kissinger would say.

"The Future of Programming" by Brett Victor. I love watching his presentations, and this is an incredible (and wonderfully satirical) statement about current computing and how embedded habits in cultures cause shifts in single directions. Definitely one of my "must-watch" talks.

Probably the most succinct and awesome description of quantum computing I've seen to date - also tells you why quantum encryption would be a serious discovery if it was made to work in production. (via quantumfrontiers)

Bow down to Team New Zealand for recovering from this nose dive during Race 1 of the Louis Vuitton Cup Finals.

Whoa. 40-0 in a hurry!

Let's repeal current legislation that makes it legal to pass judgment in secret, and press for increased privacy protections to preserve checks and balances, and due process of law.

No one should have to fear their speech resulting in police action, arrest, or harassment. I am not willing to sacrifice liberty for security and this legalized practice sets a bad example for the rest of the world and for future generations.

NOTE: The above post does not in any way condone, endorse, or encourage any recent leak actions. Silly I feel I have to say it here.

Tough not to smile real wide when watching this video. Regardless of your thoughts on the race, how it's being handled, safety rules, etc it's incredible to see the limits being pushed like this. Beautiful work.

For years, the two things that most frustrated me to hear from product managers were "how hard would it be..." and "can't you just..." It took me quite a while to figure out why I had such a strong, visceral reaction to these phrases. The answer seems obvious now: The work of implementing a feature initially is often a tiny fraction of the work to support that feature over the lifetime of a product, and yes, we can "just" code any logic someone dreams up. What might take two weeks right now adds a marginal cost to every engineering project we'll take on in this product in the future. In fact, I'd argue that the initial time spent implementing a feature is one of the least interesting data points to consider when weighing the cost and benefit of a feature.
