Welcome back +Keith Cramer

Welcome back +Keith Cramer

My brother Keith has been on vacation with his fam in Orlando most of this week. It's cold here. He comes back tomorrow. Welcome back dude. Soak up what you can now. I know you're lurking out there on your Android. πŸ˜‰

Okay, so it's not cold like in the picture below and we live in land-locked Fort Wayne, Indiana, but the picture was cool. Literally.

Right Brain or Left Brain depending on which way the dancer turns

I originally saw the dancer going counter-clockwise, making me a left-brainer. However, after a minute or so I could make her go either direction, which was pretty cool. πŸ™‚ Periodically she would just change directions, but whenever I first look at it, by default it appears to be going counter-clockwise. Fun fun!

Thanks to +Sheighla Friel and +Susan Vollenweider for introducing me to this. Kudos!

Which one are you?

Warning: don't watch the dancer for too long or you may get a headache.

Amazing Camera by Lytro captures entire light field

Want want want!!!

From their website:

The Lytro camera captures the entire light field, which is all the light traveling in every direction in every point in space. By instantly capturing complete light field data, the Lytro gives you capabilities you've never had in a regular camera. Since you'll capture the color, intensity, and direction of all the light, you can experience the first major light field capability – focusing after the fact. Focus and re-focus, anywhere in the picture. You can refocus your pictures at anytime, after the fact. And focusing after the fact, means no auto-focus motor. No auto-focus motor means no shutter delay. So, capture the moment you meant to capture not the one a shutter-delayed camera captured for you.
Thanks to +Gabriel Kennedy for his original post; I could not share to public but he gets the kudos!

The Scientist Coldplay cover by Willie Nelson plus short film

It's not like I need something to make me want to eat Chipotle. Now I want Chipotle.

Coldplay's haunting classic "The Scientist" is performed by country music legend Willie Nelson for the soundtrack of the short film entitled "Back to the Start." The film, by film-maker Johnny Kelly, depicts the life of a farmer as he slowly turns his family farm into an industrial animal factory before seeing the errors of his ways and opting for a more sustainable future. Both the film and the soundtrack were commissioned by Chipotle to emphasize the importance of developing a sustainable food system.

Tattoo by Van Halen — after a 30 year wait

Want to be a fan. Want to like it. Not a fan. Don't like it. I don't hate it, but there are way too many interesting groups doing new and good stuff out there. I found this to be pretty simplistic and the video is shot and edited in such a way as to hide so many things… black and white, quick cuts, and constant motion. If I want to listen to Van Halen, I'll go back and break out the old CD's (read, MP3 collection). My first impression, you can't reanimate the dead. A zombie is never going to be the one you loved. πŸ™

Thanks to +Charles Samples for sending me the video earlier.

Teen brother sticks up for younger sibling over traditional gender roles

Very touching story that I originally read on Huffington Post. I went to the source to read the original post and any follow-ups, so here is a link to the original. I highly recommend reading more of her posts, especially the ones defending the authenticity of this story. I found it to be well worth a few minutes of my time.

Chimp Research Hopefully Coming to an End

It's a crazy world where we call corporations people and give them rights and then we experiment on and kill our closest living relatives. We share 99% of the same DNA. They have the capacity to form intense bonds. They feel pleasure and empathy. They also feel grief, depression, and anxiety. Oh yeah, and they're alive. None of the same can be said of corporations.
