Vimeo / Video anyone?

I thought you might like a video?

Whilst Youtube is the Internet Video Behemoth there are other video sharing sites out there - so here's a couple 'inspirational tech vids' that caught my eye recently, from Vimeo...

Giant Spiders - A 'cute' video projection method to give the illusion of real life giant spiders. I can't help but think how this would be if set up in a room with 100's of Spiders projected crawling out from the TV - sounds like a great game/art sequence to me [btw - If Capcom add this to future Resident Evil game remember where you heard it first ;-)]

Secondly a warning to us about out reliance upon computer tech'. Don't get me wrong - tech has so many applications, I'm not so much fearing what would happen if it was wiped out - For me it's more  a question of if we need to live our lives in a digital or analogue state? Can't we have both..? Anyway the vid's quite cool too. Enjoy!

4K TV anyone?

A while I mentioned Sony's 4K TV ['4x fullHD resolution - 3840x2160'] hitting the mass market.

While some might argue that the content isn't available yet - that's always going to be a 'chicken and egg issue' - The sooner the TV's are out the sooner prices can fall and content can be made available for all those hungry consumers...

Hence now we have Toshiba following up with the promise to release 3 new 4K TV's next year (upto 84"). Compare this with the introduction of the first LCD's and I'd say in 3-5 years 4K TV will be affordable for the mass-market. I guess we'll have to wait to see for sure - but personally I'm looking forward to 8/16K displays - it's not that I need a larger screen - it's more that I'd like to drop the notion of a TV completely and replace it with an interactive wall. A true window upon the world...

Oh and as far as lack of content goes rumours are flying around that the New Playstation(4) might support the format. LARGE screen immersion may be sooner that you think...

PS - I wonder when TV's get so big and the images so clear that we stop to think what we're looking at on them..?
