A suspect this one might last a while
I want to know what this building is/contains not simply the location, if you know the location you should be able to find what this is, although you might not find a photo from this angle
Clues:
4 February 20:59 - Clue 1: the tellytubbies don't live here
clues from guesses:
This in Oxfordshire
It is a new building/construction

It could be described as an office as defined as
'Office:(noun) a room, set of rooms, or building used as a place of business for non-manual work'
however this building has a very specific use.
---
This building is linked to sport, but the sport does not take place
This is part of a larger Complex
This is not the front entrance to this building
there is a motorsport connection
A Formula 1 racing team is based in this complex
a wind tunnel is fairly close to what this building is, but is not a wind tunnel exactly
Incorrect Guesses:
Sittingbourne
Duxford
Croyde
Archaeolink Visitor Centre, Aberdeenshire
a former railway tunnel
a visitor centre
this is not a military base or associated with the military
a science park
Swimming Pool
an educational establishment (ie school, college)
not golf related

[pano- panorama, -morphosis variation of form]
Shooting on smartphone in panorama mode isn’t new, what here makes the difference is the instrument use. Instead of pivoting around a point, the photographer and the subject slide along parallel planes.
The instrument software duly stitches together a sequence of vertical images, but in Panomorphosis moments are added in the process. The two margins of the image happened several seconds apart.
Each image time span is different, depending on smartphone RAM and acquired data.
Tricking the software has unintended, but positive, consequences: works have strong creative and aesthetic power.

The Bulbous Bow of the Carnival Splendor.
When I was a kid I always thought (and all my plastic models reinforced the idea) that the bow of ship should be sharp so it can cut through the water with the least resistance. Kind of like a knife, eh?
It turns out that a much bigger drag on a ship is determined by how the water flows around the hull. Shaping the underwater bow of the ship like a bulb can reduce the drag by changing the bow waves, and thus increasing the efficiency, speed, range, and stability of the vessel. A 12% to 15% increase in fuel efficiency makes this bulb even more beautiful.
Don't you think this looks like a heart? almost? It's my late Valentine to the Flickr community. :)
The Combustion Research Computation and Visualization (CRCV) laboratory at the Combustion Research Facility (CRF) was dedicated Jan. 19, 2011. The 8,400-square-foot building provides additional resources and collaboration space to develop new sophisticated models and predictive capabilities that are critical to the development of future efficient engines and reduced pollutants. It was cofunded by two Department of Energy offices—Science and Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy. The CRCV provides interactive data visualization and collaborative workspaces as well as a 2,000-square-foot machine room for dedicated computational capability.

Spectral Clustering of Urban Networks
Based on the map of Venice this is the plot of the network spectrum in three dimensions divided into six clusters.
Spectral clustering is particularly useful for analyzing data where where topological links outweigh convex boundaries, that is, when connections a more significant than simple proximity. This makes it an interesting method for the analysis of urban networks where cul-de-sacs, dead ends, physical barriers, or topographic distance can separate two points that are otherwise quite proximate.
Cluster centrality is shown on this plot by distance from the center point of each cluster the distribution of cluster centrality in the plot at left (with box plot around quartiles). Network links are not represented in this plot but comparing to the map view, one can quite easily intuit the relationship of nodes to their spatial location.
The final network comprises over 11,300 nodes and 12,500 edges.
We will be conducting a workshop at the Singapore pavilion of the Venice Biennale engaging this topic and will hopefully find modifications to this network and to the methods.

Computational neuroscientist Frances Chance is revealing insights into how dragonflies intercept their prey in flight, which might be useful for missile defense. The Sandia research is examining whether dragonfly-inspired computing could improve missile defense systems, which have the similar task of intercepting an object in flight, by making on-board computers smaller without sacrificing speed or accuracy. Dragonflies catch 95% of their prey, crowning them one of the top predators in the world.
In recent computer simulations, faux dragonflies in a simplified virtual environment successfully caught their prey using computer algorithms designed to mimic the way a dragonfly processes visual information while hunting. The positive test results show the programming is fundamentally a sound model.

Computational Consciousness
Can be defined as a fully functional computational equivalent of the human mind in its higher cognitive abilities
Two approaches: piece-by-piece versus grow.
Sidenote:
Human brain is the last and grandest biological frontier,
the most complex thing we have yet discovered in our universe.

Technical Session II: Architecture of AGI Systems at the The First Conference on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI-08)
This room is The Zone, at the FedEx Institute of Technology, University of Memphis. It was a very good venue for this conference.
Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) research focuses on the original and ultimate goal of AI -- to create intelligence as a whole, by exploring all available paths, including theoretical and experimental computer science, cognitive science, neuroscience, and innovative interdisciplinary methodologies. AGI is also called Strong AI in the AI community.
Another good reference is Artificial General Intelligence : A Gentle Introduction by Pei Wang

About
We went to the design museum in Munich and changed upon this OLED display where walking in front of it would cause it to light up. This is the front of the circuit board, and the security guard was really nervous when I got really close to the display to take this photograph.
toomanytribbles, she of the bokehlicious shots and one of my favourite flickrites, took a similar shot here. I had that in back of my mind when I spotted this.
This is part II of this
I'm now adding 9 in the 9th position from the left (the rightmost position, the ones position). This is done in 2 steps: add 10, subtract 1. In this step I subtract 1.
This completes the computation. The result can be read off as 246913578.
Sitting in the doctor’s office, Catherine Rosenberg, of Little Egg Harbor Township, noticed something on a medical report that most patients wouldn’t—the mathematical formula used to calculate the volume of fluid in her swollen leg.
Rosenberg, who was diagnosed with synovial sarcoma at 8 years old, conquered cancer, but the radiation treatments led to her developing lymphedema, a condition that causes severe swelling in the limbs.
Immediately after seeing the formula, her knowledge of numerical analysis told her that there are much more accurate ways to calculate the volume of fluid buildup. Two Stockton degrees, an undergraduate degree in Mathematics and a master’s in Computational Science, and a dedication to advance the field of medicine led her to develop a patent-pending method of measuring fluid in lymphedema patients with help from a number of professors at Stockton and her doctor, Eric Chang.
