Re: motion capture lab was exhausting

"are you from a macromedia flash based group?"

I am almost alone, except, not anymore! When, after 17 years,
I got my Ph.D. in theoretical physics, I reveled in the fact
I could read whole textbooks I pleased without some professor
saying I wouldn't get a Ph.D. just doing that.

What fun I had without fear of never getting a Ph.D.

I have been interested in virtual reality with solo study of Interactive 
Computer
Graphics, the whole textbook, trying to solve every problem
(one chapter was a royal bummer and would have consumed a lifetime,
so I didn't tackle that).

I also studied Maya PLE and went to siggraph San Antonio and had a blast.

Now I am studying a course by Americo.

Look for DMU, it's doable. He writes a Portuguese blog,
but I don't give a darn whether his English is terrible.

I might even insist that I learn Portuguese from streamripper Brazil
internet channel to iPod so I can keep up with a totally
Portuguese language company that uses supercomputers
to change the paradyme of advertising based on preprogrammed
programming to interactive gaming sets as the front end of this
multicell supercomputer.

Right now, for me, its Brazil DMU course and an article about
what I imagine to be decohering black hole horizons, but
I also love to fool with music interface and this wonderful new book,
"I am a Strange Loop" by Hofstadter who wrote GEB around 1980.

That's who I am, that's what I do.

Thanks for asking Janet.

Oh, I can't skip the old gag of Daniel Friedman, Institute of Advanced 
Studies,
"It doesn't take a Ph.D. in theoretical physics to understand..." Americo!
I got gimp2 and blender working on a mac with Darwin portfiles
(I have a mac Americo teaches for pc's unless Steve Jobs gets into
one laptop per child too).

;-)

Thanks again for asking who I was, I'm still trying to figure that out
and I love when people ask now!
