A First Drive
Fully autonomous driving has always been the goal of our project, because we think this could improve road safety and help lots of people who can’t drive.
We’re now developing prototypes of vehicles that have been designed from the ground up to drive themselves—just push a button and they’ll take you where you want to go! We’ll use these vehicles to test our software and learn what it will really take to bring this technology into the world.

Dupa ce ani de zile a adaptat vehicule Toyota si Lexus pentru a testa masinile capabile sa se conduca singure, Google a ales sa prezinte propriul model, un prototip cu doua locuri care va fi testat in oras. Masinuta nu are volan, acceleratie sau frana, are locuri pentru doua persoane si viteza maxima va fi limitata la 40 km/h. Un constructor auto al carui nume nu a fost comunicat va asambla o flota de 100 de vehicule ce vor fi testate in SUA.

Nu stiu de ce dar am impresia ca materialul de mai jos o sa vi se para oarecum atipic. 🙂 Daca pana astazi erati obisnuiti sa vedeti campanii impotriva violentei asupra femeilor, astazi vom afla ca barbatii din UK sufera extrem de mult. Peste 40% sunt batuti zilnic de neveste. Wtf?

Chiar astazi vorbeam cu niste prieteni la o cafea si ne delectam cu un subiect despre diferenta dintre nemti, ca societate, si romani. Daca de mic tu nu esti invatat de catre parintii tai sa respecti pe cei din jur, sa nu arunci gunoaie pe jos, sa nu minti, sa nu faci una sau alta, atunci cu siguranta toate acestea se vor reflecta asupra ta cand vei fi deja matur. Stiti cum se zice, totul tine de educatia primita in cei sapte ani de acasa, insa daca aceasta lipseste atunci e de rau pentru ca daca gandim la scara larga, valoarea unei societati este data de calitatea oamenilor ce o formeaza. Corect?

Mi s-a parut oarecum relevanta si campania de mai jos:

An amazing smartphone app turns common people into powerful hackers and hidden cameras record their reaction as they unwillingly hack a street of Los Angeles. You won’t believe what they do when the police show up!
Experience the power of hacking in Watch Dogs on May 27, 2014.

Cei de la Ubisoft au lansat zilele trecute un clip pe Youtube in care putem observa cum au reusit sa convinga niste cetateni cum ca pe piata a aparut o aplicatie de smartpone cu ajutorul careia pot controla lumea din jurul lor. Farsa este extrem de reusita si la cum e creata presupun ca s-a investit ceva buget acolo. Toate astea pentru a promova jocul “Watch Dogs” ce iese pe piata chair maine – 27 Mai 2014. Super tare:

Travelogue showing the delights of Rumania.
London exhibition. Two teenage girls (twins) look at some of the Rumanian Craftware on display at the exhibition. Rumanian women demonstrate weaving techniques.
Rumania – countryside. Farmer and his herd of cows. Scenic shots of the countryside. Carpathian Mountains. Narrator details some of Rumania’s history. Scenes at a racecourse. The tote. Bookmakers. Trotting race. Narrator makes jokes about the Rumanians being capitalists. Chairlift at the skiing resort of Poianna Brasov. Various shots of the countryside – some views from the moving chairlift. “Sport Hotel” with holidaymakers drinking cocktails. Museum opens its gates – ornate architecture. Churches and monastery in Moldavia.
Narrator speaks of how Rumania is reaching westwards for new ideas and inspiration. New buildings and roadways. An oil rig – a sightseeing attraction in Bucharest’s permanent industrial exhibition. Tourists arrive aboard a Caravelle aircraft with the word “Sabena” on the side. Landmarks of Bucharest seen from a car. Traffic warden is seen. High angle shot of a street market. Woman chooses some flowers to buy.
Housing – blocks of flats. The new concert hall and the home of the circus – Big Top Deluxe. People lounging beside a hotel swimming pool – it has a wave machine. Mamaia Rumania’s summer beach resort is featured. Nice shots of people on the beach then holidaymakers relaxing beside their tents in a campsite. Man uses a chest expander whilst his friend laughs. Girl feeds a foal with a bottle.
Fruit stall with a display to commemorate the August revolution of 1944. Various shots of hotels and bright lights at night. Narrator gives the hard sell: “Suspicious, sullen Rumania is really a vivacious young girl, flirting with Western ideas and beckoning the tourist to come just a little further afield in the search for fun and bright lights. For some it could be love at first sight.” Cuts exist – see separate record.

Michael Jackson – Slave To The Rhythm
Optimum Productions & Pulse Evolution

“Slave to the Rhythm”a fost inregistrata acum aproape 15 ani, iar prin 2010 a aparut pe Internet fara a se face insa buzz foarte mare (cantecul a fost lansat dupa moartea artistului, pe albumul Xscape, pe care s-au regasit si alte piese inregistrate de Jackson dar care nu au fost publicate in timpul vietii sale).  Zilele trecute, la Billboard Awards 2014, Michael Jackson a prins viata cu ajutorul tehnologiei, sub forma unei holograme. Din cate am inteles, pentru realizarea acestui proiect a fost nevoie de aproape o jumatate de an de planificare, coregrafie si filmare plus dezvoltare si adaptarea de noi tehnologii privind proiectul (nu am gasit informatii despre costuri, presupun ca nu au fost mici).
Nu stiu de ce dar dupa ce am vizionat materialul de mai jos am devenit extrem de nostalgic. Voi?
