Op 24 juli 2014 is de 32 duizend kilo zware magneet van een 7 Tesla scanner, de vierde in Nederland, op zijn plaats getakeld in de nieuwbouw van het Spinoza Centre for Neuroimaging in Amsterdam Zuidoost. De ultrahoog veld MRI-scanner, die vanaf november 2014 in gebruik wordt genomen, zal neurowetenschappers meer inzicht geven in de werking van de hersenen en hersenaandoeningen.

My new scanner: The Epson Perfection V600. It's an LED scanner, instead of lamp, so it is very fast... 10 seconds to scan a photo at ultra-high res. It scans from multiple angles, which allows the correction software to fix blemishes in old photos.
It can scan all sorts of negatives and slides, as well as medium format (large format can be done as long as you stitch them together post-process). No more mooching off MassArt or RISD for me... LOL

I get to do many odd things as a part of my job. Yesterday, I got to program a dozen race scanners for the NASCAR race at Texas Motor Speedway this weekend.

These images were all taken by Dan Reetz, the creator of this DIY portable book scanner, demonstrated 10/10/09 at the D is for Digitize conference at New York Law School.
At his request, I'm sharing them here. Check out his original blog post of these images, or visit his website.
Dan has dedicated the images to the public domain, but the least restrictive license Flickr allows is the CC-BY. As public domain images, you may do whatever you wish with these, and you do not need to credit anyone (and shouldn't credit me - Dan took these.)
How did I spend my weekend? Well, I took my old all-in-one scanner-printer to the local authority "recycling centre" this afternoon. A few yards from its entrance is a pleasing walk along the bank of one of the area's many man-made drainage channels. Evidently this one had lately been cleaned, for mounds of grey silt and heaps of waterweed were lying all along the bank. Amongst the debris I noticed the nacreous blue gleam of an empty shell. Some kind of mollusc had been dredged up in large quantities. I pocketed a couple of complete specimens to take home. I would look them up in my Oxford Book of Invertebrates. I ran them under the tap, cleaned them up a bit and took them outside to photograph them. In the book they looked like examples of the Swollen River Mollusc (Unio tumidus). I showed them to my lady wife. "Do you think they are still occupied?" she asked. This hadn't occurred to me. "Put them in the bath in shallow water and see what happens".
I did this. Ten minutes later my wife called out that the shells were "squirting". Sure enough, both creatures ...as I must now call them... were shooting out little cloudy puffs into the clear bath water. So what now? Alright, shellfish aren't cute, warm-blooded or cuddly, but somehow I couldn't just chuck them in the bin now that I'd used them to satisfy my curiosity. This meant, of course, a five mile drive to "return them to the wild". Mrs B, a tender-hearted soul, came with me this time and insisted that we search the mounds of silt for further potentially living specimens. We found a dozen or so and threw them back into the water.

What does a scanner see? Into the head? Down into the heart? Does it see into me, into us? Clearly or darkly? I hope it sees clearly, because I can't any longer see into myself. I see only murk. I hope for everyone's sake the scanners do better. Because if the scanner sees only darkly, the way I do, then I'm cursed and cursed again. I'll only wind up dead this way, knowing very little, and getting that little fragment wrong too.
