My Husband! Apparently slightly bored with wandering around the Sunflower Maze with me two weeks running and catching up on some emails on his iPhone. He had no idea I had taken this image until today :o)
I have quite obviously run some filters though this image and smoothed out the clouds a little so as to make it more of a concept image.
A newborn baby fixates on human faces… but a newborn boy will turn his gaze to blinking lights.
Stereo equipment designers have exploited this innate attraction for years. =)
And in this full size photo, you can appreciate IBM’s pinnacle of geek bling-bling – an immersive widescreen of blinky bliss.
This IBM System/360 Model 91 was a scientific computer used at SLAC in 1968. It used Solid Logic Technology (modules of five to six transistors) during the transition period between discrete transistors and the IC.

Srinivasan Rajagopalan with hardware located at Brookhaven Lab used to support the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.
A rather large rangefinder from Petri, another lacklustre camera. Way too big for a an all auto camera with the usual 40/2,8 lens. No manual control, no self-timer, but we do get 3 leds, one for long exposure warning, another for OK exposure and one for testing the battery. They are visible in the viewfinder and on top of the camera, nice.
The biggest problem of this camera is the shutter. You just wouldn't believe how loud it is! It is as loud as an SLR, I kid you not! I have never seen a leaf shutter as noisy as this one and it is electronic! I think it was a house made shutter and Petri knew about this problem as the next model (based on this Computor) has a completely silent Seiko ESP.
Computing Sciences hosted 14 local high school students as part of an outreach program to introduce students to various career options in scientific computing and networking. The sessions include presentations, hands-on activities, and tours of facilities. The program was developed with input from computer science teachers at Berkeley High, Albany High, Richmond's Kennedy High, and Oakland Tech. Computing Staff present a wide range of topics including assembling a desktop computer, cyber security war stories, algorithms for combustion and astrophysics and the role of applied math.

This is an artsy special effects video that I made over a couple of days.
It's pretty basic, but I think the effect is very nice.
There was a lot of work that went into getting it just right.
For a while I was looking for another visual play on words to go along with the pokes at Apple I've been doing lately (e.g. EyeHell).
Since I work with computers a lot, there is a lot of talk about the Cloud and Cloud Computing.
I expanded my theme beyond Apple a bit since they don't own the Cloud exclusively.
(However, it could be argued that the glasses are for eyes, so it is a reference to the EyeCloud again...)

P.S. The jet plane flying over at the end was a complete random happenstance. Didn't plan that one at all, but I think it really adds to it.

Just what is cloud computing?
Cloud computing is a general term for the delivery of hosted services over the Internet.
Cloud computing enables companies to consume compute resources as an energy– much like electricity– rather than needing to build and also maintain computing...

...these were the 'dogs bollocks'. Found some old photos on them. Clicks and bangs for 20 seconds and magically a photo appears! Time to say..goodbye.
Cloud Computing is a term in computer science used specifically to refer to advances in client-server technology that have occurred in the last decade.The 1970's concept of a hard-wired server connected to a client by network cable, is seldom seen in today's world. Many computers are no longer clearly distinguishable as clients or servers. Fat clients have become servers, and thin clients have become handheld devices. 20th century computer installations and accompanying computer applications were mostly proprietary and employees usually only had access to a computer at the office. As more and more employees have more and more sophisticated equipment at home, companies have shifted towards using internet-based services. For example, employees may be instructed to consult Google maps rather than being offered route descriptions to offices via proprietary websites or intranets. The computer generating the map request may be running several applications for several different types of fat- and thin clients. The computer offering the map is called a server, while it may possibly only have a switching capability itself, retrieving its actual data from another server. The cloud therefore, can refer to a lack of wires or hardware ownership as well as to a lack of software ownership.

There’s something undeniably disconcerting about this youngster featured on the cover of the October 1981 issue of Interface Age magazine. Maybe she’s hacking into WOPR or something.

Leica M9
Summicron 35mm ASHP.
Petri Computor 35 ~1970
C.C. Petri 2.8/40
The Computor 35, fancy name in an era when that term meant novelty. It's a coupled rangefinder camera. It has CdS cell behind the filter ring. The exposure is automatic. There are two lights inside the viewfinder and on the top plate, by the hot shoe, green means shutter speed over 1/30, orange under. The exposure counter resets automatically and it's totally dependant of two LR44 batteries.
There is a younger sister Petri Computor II

The print edition just arrived… and the online version has already cycled through two entirely different headlines. Opening of article:
“Google owns a lot of computers—perhaps a million servers stitched together into the fastest, most powerful artificial intelligence on the planet. But last August, Google teamed up with NASA to acquire what may be the search giant’s most powerful piece of hardware yet. It’s certainly the strangest.
Optimization is a key part of Google’s seemingly magical facility with data, and Neven says the techniques the company uses are starting to peak. “They’re about as fast as they’ll ever be,” he says.
That leaves Google—and all of computer science, really—just two choices: Build ever bigger, more power-hungry silicon-based computers. Or find a new way out, a radical new approach to computation that can do in an instant what all those other million traditional machines, working together, could never pull off, even if they worked for years.
Unless it’s not a quantum computer at all. Quantum computing is so new and so weird that no one is entirely sure whether the D-Wave is a quantum computer or just a very quirky classical one. Not even the people who build it know exactly how it works and what it can do. That’s what Neven is trying to figure out, sitting in his Google lab, week in, week out, patiently learning to talk to the D-Wave. If he can figure out the puzzle—what this box can do that nothing else can, and how—then boom. “It’s what we call ‘quantum supremacy,’” he says. “Essentially, something that cannot be matched anymore by classical machines.” It would be, in short, a new computer age.”
And here is a video I took visiting the soul of the new machine…. and for the curious, D-Wave will be hosting a webinar on quantum computing on June 12.
