TechCrunch wasn't too stoked on it, either. And those writers may have a point -- watching a bunch of people tap an iPad is nothing like watching a capable chamber ensemble or a full orchestra perform. Having the iPad simply replicate the part of a real instrument -- cheeky T-shirts or no -- is about the most conventional use of it imaginable. But iPad music-making is in its infancy. If this video doesn't show what the iPad may eventually be capable of musically, it at least gives us a starting point.]]> 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4041
panoptICONS is a project by Thomas voor 't Hekke and Bas van Oerle who work together by the name of 'Helden'.]]> 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4040 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4039 Projects are confronted with each other, magazine sections overlap. The changes reflect our attitude towards contemporary
editorial design in analogue and digital times. This “new order” is a homage to the visual and to design. Orientation,
information and sections still have their own right and place within the magazine‘s structure, but the changing of perspectives,
the relations and associations are definitely not an expression by the medium of information, rather of openness
and examination. It‘s a concept that doesn’t come under the hegemony of function, a feast of the visual.
With great pleasure we present the work of studio Moiré (Zurich/CH), the photographic essays “Images from the Dark
Side” by Martin Miller (Baltimore/USA) and “A Crude World” by Paolo Woods (Paris/FR) as well as contemporary typefaces,
illustrations and projects related to monospace and typewriters. Type essays by Alexander Negrelli (Berlin/DE), Rieke
Harmsen (Munich/DE) and Horst Wöhrle (Esslingen/DE) examine the aesthetics, history and connotations of typewriter
fonts, interviews with Yves Peters (Sint-Denijs-Westrem/BE), Richard Kegler (Buffalo/USA), Georg Seifert (Berlin/DE) as
well as a Tokyo report by Ian Lynam (Tokyo/JP) and a musical travelogue by DJ Frank Wiedemann (âme / INNERVISIONS,
Berlin/DE) round up the stuff to read.]]> 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4038
Also, very excitingly, every order placed before midnight on September 30th (the day before the official release) will receive a free screenprint by James Jarvis, commissioned especially for the issue. The print will be two colour, with a spot UV gloss, making it that little bit extra special and will come unfolded at 185 x 245mm."

And looking at the previous issues this one has got to be great!]]> 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4037 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4036 ]]> 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4035 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4034 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4033 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4032 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4030
Bij het derde nummer van het optreden van The Drums op Lowlands schieten ineens meer dan vijftien handen met iPhones de lucht in. Afgesproken werk: dit zijn testgebruikers van de Film It Yourself-app van de VPRO. De app, alleen voor de iPhone 3GS of 4, maakt het mogelijk om bijna geheel automatisch met een groep toeschouwers een concertregistratie te maken waarbij alle filmpjes precies worden gesynchroniseerd met het geluid, opgenomen op een harddiskrecorder op het podium.

De VPRO testte afgelopen weekend op Lowlands met 77 vrijwilligers de app. Daar werden zeventien concerten door de FIY-vrijwilligers gefilmd en later geüpload, vier minder dan vooraf gedacht. 'Ik hoopte op vijftien, tien was het minimum. We hadden van 21 shows de rechten geregeld, maar er valt altijd op het eind wel iets af', vertelt FIY-leider Ron van der Sterren in de VPRO-redactiecontainer backstage.

De beelden zijn terug te zien via de 3voor12 Lowlands-site

The Concept

Because of the increased commercial interest of paving public space with digital advertising screens the need for an accessibel intervention devices seemed obvious and necessary. The wish and habit to comment (tag) the surrounding world is also an ancient and still vivant phenomena we try to preserve. Our concept of VR/Urban aims for claiming back urban space and and give the inhabitants a tool for occupiing urban screens. People shall not
only remain as a passive audience, they must obtain the
privilege and beside that the right tools to create their
own multimedia content in the streets. The more and more
mushrooming media facades, LED supplied walls and huge
projections are interesting and worthy technical innovations
for the people, but in contrast to the old fashioned posters
in the streets, it is nearly impossible to create own content for these facades or even hang up your digital video.

The SMSlingshot is an autonom working device, equipped with an ultra-high frequency radio, hacked arduino board, laser and batteries. Text messages can be typed on a phone-sized wooden keypad which is integrated in the also wooden slingshot. After the message is finished, the user can aim on a media facade and send/shoot the message straight to the targeted point. It will then appear as a colored splash with the message written within. The text message will also be real-time twittered - just in case."]]> 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4028 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4027 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4026 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4025 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4024 2010-09-08T10:18:39+02:00 Algemeen http://www.ok-blog.nl/?itemID=4021 2010-09-08T10:18:40+02:00 Algemeen
