As the title suggests, my blog has content from many sources. Being a professional nerd, there is a strong techy vibe here but my interests are varied and some will hopefully be of interest to the non-tech also.

Canyon Ride
Kelly McGarry flips a 72-foot-long canyon gap at the Red Bull Rampage 2013 to earn a 2nd place finish. All I can really add is "Wow".

PowerUp 3.0
Turn your self-made paper airplane into a smartphone-controlled flying machine with PowerUp. This needs to happen because I want one.

Water Fun
For my birthday I got a gift of an underwater camera. The other day I got my first chance to try it out when some of went for a Kayak training session in a pool. Hopefully I'll be able to post more videos as my degree progresses.

In Saturn's Rings
This is the newest teaser for "In Saturn's Rings", a giant screen space film for IMAX® and other big screens, coming summer 2014. This DIY, not-for-profit all-volunteer film is from Greensboro, NC, USA filmmaker Stephen van Vuuren with tons of help from volunteer image processors around the world.
Created entirely from real photographs using photoanimation and multiplane photoanimation. No computer-generated images, painting, cloning, tweening, morphing, texture maps, camera projection or 3D models used.
The film is 100% created using only flat 2D photographs (often hundreds or thousands per frame) stitched together for massive hundred megapixel+ resolutions that are scaled and zoomed using techniques developed by the filmmaker.
Go full screen and enjoy!

Sombodies
Do you remember Somebody That I Used To Know by Gotye? How could you forget it, it was all over the radio and TV. It also spawned so many covers, tributes and parodies that were all over YouTube. Well it seems that Gotye himself loved all of these and edited together his own mashup-mix of the best. Enjoy Somebodies - A YouTube Orchestra.

Big Hail
We often have hailstorms in the UK but nothing like this. This one was potentially lethal surely. Filmed in Australia where it seems its not just the wildlife that is out to get you.
