Jan Leonardo Wollert and Jorg Miedza (LAPP)
Die Light Art Performance Photography ist noch ziemlich jung. Vor ungefähr einem Jahr habe haben zwei Bremer Lichtkunstfotografen begonnen sie zu entwickeln. Alles fing damit an, dass einer der beiden über Nacht in einem alten Speicher im Bremer Hafen eingeschlossen wurde. An diesem Abend probierte er das erste mal zwei Flächenlampen aus, die er einmal bei Ebay gekauft, aber nie ausprobiert hatte. Das Resultat war das erste LAPP Foto und der Anfang einer neuen Herangehensweise (die Technik war noch nicht definiert).

The World Premiere of the Stage Version of Tom Robbins' Even Cowgirls Get the Blues
The new Seattle production of Even Cowgirls Gets the Blues hits the same cosmic gong of enlightenment the book did, making you laugh and think in equal proportions. It's out of the ballpark, never less than outrageously entertaining while remaining extremely faithful to the anarchic spirit of the original book. This was especially true of the world premiere at the Seattle Center, right there under the Space Needle, next to the 60's amusement park that stands as an everlasting tribute to amusement technology gone by. The attendance of Tom Robbins, inserted into the play - very much as he inserted himself into his novel - brought the whole thing into startling 4D perspective.

Japan To Get 1Gbps Home Fiber Connections
KDDI has announced that they will be launching a 1Gbps Internet service to single-family home and condo users in October. The service is supposedly synchronous, with 1Gbps in both directions, although the article implies that speeds will vary with location. Cost will be 5,985 yen/month (about US$56.50) for the basic Internet and IP phone service. This is intended to compete with NTT, who currently control over 70% of the Japanese FTTH market.

Metal plates send messages to airport x-ray screeners
One of my favorite artists, Evan Roth, is working on a project that will be released soon - the pictures say it all, it's a "carry on" communication system.
