The Shaun White effect…

by on Feb.19, 2010, under Tech

It took me a little while to work it out but I think Shaun White has made my site stats go mad…

Normally I get anything from 50-100 hits a day.

A few days ago things started spiking a bit…

Google seems to like my photos as this has happened a few times before but my Shaun White double cork images from the NZ Open feature really high in any search…

Avatar in 3D

by on Feb.14, 2010, under Animation, ART!, Tech

I know I’m a little late on this as it is now the highest grossing film of all time by a long way, but finally got round to seeing Avatar.

I took Flo to the Imax in Sydney to see it in 3D (biggest Imax screen in the world) and we were both pretty blown away by it.

The size of the screen plus the slightly ridiculous 3D glasses left us a bit spun out at times, but after hearing all the hype from people I was preparing to be disappointed. I wasnt.

If you havent seen this film you need to, partly because its a David Vs Goliath film and we all love the underdog, and partly because it has now set a pretty significant bench mark for the future of cinema… There is also gonna be a sequel apparently.

On the way through Darling Harbour to the IMAX we passed a pretty odd sight: An English man with a strapped on microphone on a BMX suspended 20ft up in the air telling everyone how he was going to juggle with fire…random.

We also stopped by to see the Year of the Tiger exhibit at Customs house.

Brighton Beach (the Sydney version)

Here is the trailer, just in case you need a reason to go see the movie.

Interesting concept… Anyone in the US? I’d like to know what this is like when you actually play around with it…
