PolyArch is a personal research project that started off with a simple question; what is a 3D mesh? Greetings Hemesh, a beautiful library for Processing that enables you to generate 3D geometric form. The intricacies of programming the third dimension are well worth the effort if only like me you eventually come back to 2D with more confidence. You learn a lot about geometry and as Frieder Nake once said to me, "geometry is heaven, graphics is hell." I'm not in total agreement but I always love that quote. Here are some examples of the fruit of that research into the realm of polygons. I called it PolyArch because I'm intrigued too by architecture. Additional raytracing was rendered with SunFlow.
The Computation Center at Madrid University (CCUM) is an example of how computation centers, mathematicians and some private computer companies became generators of interaction between technology and other disciplines. In January 1966, Madrid University reached an agreement with IBM to set up a computation center which was, however, not officially opened to the public until March 1969 (so in 2019 we are celebrating the 50th anniversary of that event). IBM agreed to give an IBM 70904 and an IBM 14015 computer to Madrid University and contribute the equivalent of 18,000 euros per year for research scholarships. This center was the first computation center in Spain and these computers were two of the most advanced computers in Europe at that time. Before this center was opened in Madrid, there were only small computers in some departments of various Spanish universities. This is the reason why, although this center was integrated into the Madrid University structure, it was thought to be open to all research and education centers in Spain. Its initial purpose was to foster the use of new mathematic calculation techniques in research and education in Spain, and to support the calculation needs of the Spanish university community. Thus, CCUM’s initial activities were grouped in two main sections: calculation support for University departments, and computer and programming training for students and other professionals not only in Madrid, but all over Spain.

These result images are from the first homework assignment of my Computational Photography class at Columbia University. For each image I applied a number of face detectors to the images and determined the best rotation give the number of faces. I also classified the image as having being individuals or group shots.

Computational Information Design
The ability to collect and store data continues to increase, but our ability to understand it remains unchanged. Data visualization makes use of our evolutionary proclivity for decoding visual images and employs this ability as a high-bandwidth means of getting data into our heads. In this talk, I'll present work I've developed ranging from illustrations of data for magazines and journals to software tools used by geneticists to interactive applications for Fortune 10 companies.
Keywords: Design, Visualization, InformationDesign, Processing, Java, VisualWeb, JavaScript
Target Audience: Anyone interested in understanding the mess of data around us.

The YOW! 2010 Australia Software Developer Conference is a unique opportunity for you to listen to and talk with international software experts in a relaxed setting.
Here's why you should want to attend:
* concise, technically-rich talks and workshops delivered
without the usual vendor-hype and marketing spin
* broad exposure to the latests tools and technologies,
processes and practices in the software industry
* "invitation only" speakers selected by an independent
international program committee from a network
of over 400 authors and experts
* a relaxed conference setting where you get the rare opportunity
to meet and talk with world-reknowned speakers face-to-face
* an intimate workshop setting where you are able
to benefit from an in-depth learning experience
* a truly unique opportunity to make contacts and network
with other talented Australian software professionals
* you'll be supporting a great charity. Ten dollars from every registration will be donated to the Endeavour Foundation.

"I see the potential for multi-core computing being the ability to take the hard edges off technology. In my future technology will be less visible, more human and simply make our lives easier." Andrew Herbert

The Spring 2012 Student Hackathon brought in hundreds of students from dozens of universities to NYU's Courant Institute for 24 hours of creative coding using a variety of New York City startups' APIs.
Selected companies presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, and students formed groups to brainstorm and begin coding on their ideas. Many students worked into the night, foregoing sleep to fulfill their visions.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel, which selected the final winners.
hackNY hosts hackathons one each semester, as well as a Summer Fellows Program, which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment, a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student are expected to compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup.
For more information on hackNY's initiatives, please visit www.hackNY.org and follow us on twitter @hackNY

Description: The active contour method is a semi-automatic image segmentation process based on deformable models, i.e., closed parametric curves or surfaces with physical properties that, under the influence of external and internal mechanical forces, deform and coalesce adapting to image features. This figure exhibits the active contour evolution of a cervical spine, showing a transversal section of the segmented image data (left) and the corresponding 3-D evolution (right).

This video demonstrates some results of scientific research in the field of AI and Music being carried out at the Institute of Computational Perception at Johannes Kepler University Linz (Austria). Based on the latest advances in machine learning, our computers learn to “listen to” and “understand” music, recognizing beat and rhythm, instantly identifying music pieces from a few played notes, following pianists and whole orchestras live in the concert hall, and learning to read music directly from images. Demos are shown of autonomous drum robots and other kinds of musical companions that turn music pages for pianists, provide synchronized scores to concert audiences, and accompany soloists. In a final video, we use a MIDI theremin to control expressive aspects of a piano performance in real time.
