The series is a three-part experience covering black holes, the sounds of the cosmos, and our own pale-blue-dot of a planet. Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. Sometimes those stories are based on hard evidence other times, on our imagination. But it’s also significant as the kind of experience that could get younger students interested in STEM and related fields.Įvery discipline incorporates stories – in this case, compelling stories of the mysteries of the universe. SPHERES is a powerful example of storytelling in VR, and one of our favorite experiences. We got the answer today with its public release on the Oculus Rift HMD for $9.99. That distribution agreement had us all guessing when and where it would show up. “If VR takes off as a great way of telling narrative stories then I’m sure we’ll lean into it and that’ll be a format we embrace.The SPHERES VR experience made news in the spring when it scored the million-dollar-plus deal at the Sundance Film Festival. “I think Netflix is all about testing things and trying things and seeing what people use, and seeing what works and what doesn’t,” Whiteley told Trusted Reviews. During this early adopter phase, it’s hard to find ways to successfully monetise big budget productions in the same way as content being developed for TV shows and movies.Ĭouple that with the fact that VR content is much more difficult and costly to produce, and the unavoidable truth that file sizes balloon once you start filming in a 360-degree space, and it’s easy to see why Netflix is yet to pledge itself to the VR revolution. ![]() Viewers can be transported – using a virtual reality headset like the Oculus Rift – to a luxurious lodge or cinema, where they can watch the entire roster of Netflix content on an entirely virtual screen.īut Netflix is playing a cautious hand when it comes to actual virtual reality content, largely due to the fact that the number of people who own VR headsets globally is still very small. Netflix has already dipped its toe in the virtual reality waters, having released an early app for Oculus VR that allows subscribers to watch TV shows and movies in a virtual space. And somebody else in Netflix would be having that conversation on the product side and content side, and around commissioning and so on.” “If the Duffer brothers came to us and said ‘you know, Stranger Things season three has gotta be in VR’ then that would be a really interesting conversation. But there’s hope, according to the Netflix business chief: Whiteley repeated several times that Netflix is “not biased” against virtual reality in any way, but says that the company hasn’t “seen the really compelling creative ideas” needed to take VR mainstream. And if there’s demand there then it will grow.” He continued: “If we see consumer demand we see uptake for it, we’ll do more of it. What do we think will work? We’ve got great ideas, and then we’ll test them and the data will decide whether that’s something we lean into or not.” ![]() We go back to the fundamental culture within Netflix, around testing and learning. “It’s one of the things that, along with a myriad of other ideas, we will begin to test and see if there’s consumer uptake, and uptake in the creative industries. Speaking to Trusted Reviews at a Vodafone Passes event on the future of digital content, Christopher Whiteley, Director of Business Development for EMEA at Netflix, said the company will test VR content going forward. Today, however, a senior Netflix executive lifted the veil on the company’s views around VR content, and gave us a glimpse of what to expect from the company going forward. But the company has largely remained coy about the next generation of digital content: virtual reality. There’s no denying it: Netflix has mastered two-dimensional TV shows and movies, churning out hundreds of original productions to over 100 million paying subscribers globally. Netflix has revealed its take on virtual reality to Trusted Reviews, and suggested that Stranger Things season three being filmed in VR would be “a really interesting conversation”. ![]()

Land can't you do something to get him to finish ?” She replied, “Oh, it's the bane of my existence. Land was in the class of a graduate student, George Wheelwright, when Wheelwright called Land's wife asking, “Mrs. To try and ensure Land's success his professors suggested that his wife help type his lab reports at their house at 40 Linnean Street, so that Land would earn credit for the intriguing experiments he was doing. Once Land had solved a problem in his own head, he had no interest in writing it down or explaining it to others. After attending some classes at Columbia and experimenting in the field of polarized light, Land re-enrolled at Harvard, but maintaining his interest was difficult. Writing never satisfied his scientific passions, however, in New York he did meet Helen Maislen (known as Terre), the woman who was to be his wife for the next 61 years. ![]() Land asked for a leave of absence from Harvard, and moved to New York City to try his hand at writing the next great American novel. Those he saw around him did not share his passion, and his learning style was not conducive to the academic system. After only one semester, however, he became disillusioned with the academic process. Land came to Cambridge in 1927 to attend Harvard University, and quickly distinguished himself as a brilliant thinker. The impact of his work is immense, yet Edwin Land is perhaps best known for the company he created: Polaroid. Land played a formative role in the study of optics, chemistry, physics, electronics, educational policy, and military strategy during both the Second World War and the Cold War. As his biographer Victor McElheny explains, “Recounting his life is a meditation on the nature of innovation.” (1) He created internationally-known products, established two entire industries, and the company he founded became a household name. By focusing on Polaroid's " objectness " and its dialectical tension with the immateriality of digital photography, the paper highlights an increasingly common process of circulation between analogue and digital photographic environments and argues that this process of circulation can be conceived in terms of a " remediation " process between analogue and digital practices.Edwin Land (1909-1991) was an institution of innovation. The article is based on empirical data collected during a multi-sited ethnography conducted in Italy between 20. Drawing on STS literature on the mutual shaping of users and technology, and on anthropology and the history of photography, it adopts the concept of " photo-object " to discuss how the digitalization of photography stimulated a change in the cultural significance of materiality in the context of aspirational amateur photography, thus showing how this triggered a redefinition of instant photography as a more authentic form of aspirational practice. The article focuses on the reconfiguration of analogue instant photography (Polaroid-like) in the digital age. Consequently my research explores the development of the dark ride over the past century by presenting a prehistory of the dark ride technologies upon which the most recent twenty-first century rides are founded. The methodological approach that I have adopted is that of media archaeology as described by Wolfgang Ernst in Erkki Huhtamo and Jussi Parikka’s Media Archaeology: Approaches, Applications, and Implications. Grusin in their book Remediation, underpins my research. The phenomenon of media remediation, as defined by J. My discovery shows that while the principle dark ride concept has remained the same, that is, ride vehicles travel through darkened spaces, the development of new technologies has resulted in massive changes to the creative process and end product. ![]() The research herein examines how together they combine with new technologies to remediate and transform century old dark rides like the Old Mill Ride and Hales Tours of the World to create breathtaking new rides like Transformers: The Ride 3D. The three inventions are the Amusement Railway, the Combination Training Device for Student Aviators and Entertainment Apparatus and Polarizing Refracting Bodies. By revealing the connections of three major inventions from the early 1930s to today's dark rides, this thesis fills gaps in dark ride literature that might otherwise remain unstated, unrelated and unexplored. This research examines how for more than a hundred years creators of dark rides have used cutting-edge technologies to affect an assault on the body and minds of their patrons. ![]() ![]() ![]() Your symptoms may improve before the infection is completely cleared.

Oxenfree 's release was accompanied by development documentaries, an alternate reality game, and a collector's edition, and was met with generally positive reviews, with critics praising the presentation and characters, although some of them were left wanting more. ![]() Musician scntfc composed the game's soundtrack, which features digital music production techniques alongside the use of vintage analog tape recorders and receivers. Oxenfree 's visual presentation marries dark, organic, and analog elements with bright, geometric, and digital ones.

Oxenfree is a graphic adventure game developed and published by Night School Studio. ![]() ![]() ![]() The first two episodes are almost all introducing Alex and his background. He has, however, kept the TV show as an origin story and, as a result, Alex Rider spends a lot of time establishing its premise, establishing its premise and establishing its premise again. Since Stormbreaker was the first book in Horowitz’s series - 13 tomes and counting - writer Guy Burt ( The Bletchley Circle) has skipped ahead to the second novel, fittingly titled Point Blanc. Judge Judy Sheindlin Lands New Court Show on Amazon's IMDb TV But guess what? Point Blanc is harboring some dark secrets and although getting into the school might be reasonably simple, getting out surely will not be. Nestled in the remote reaches of the French Alps, Point Blanc takes the troubled spawn of the wealthy elite and trains them into becoming responsible members of society. Alex meets the head of the DSO (Stephen Dillane’s Alan Blunt) under tragic circumstances, and he’s soon enlisted into the family business because the DSO needs somebody capable of infiltrating a mysterious school called Point Blanc. Plus, maybe if people tune in for this launch, somebody will see fit to give the budget a necessary boost.įor those who don’t know, Alex Rider (Otto Farrant) is a normal London teen, bored by his banker uncle Ian (Andrew Buchan) and attentive housekeeper Jack (Ronkẹ Adékoluẹjo), but content to hang out with geeky buddy Tom (Brenock O’Connor), holding movie nights and sneaking out to parties.Īlex thinks his uncle is beyond dull even though Ian has taken him on trips around the globe, helped him get training in Krav Maga and taught him a strange assortment of skills that make sense when he discovers that Uncle Ian is part of an intelligence operation called Department of Special Operations. But it feels like a reasonable eight-episode set-up for a fun series. ![]() And as for the series itself? It’s fine! The decision was made to double down on exposition for this reintroduction to Alex Rider and his undercover world, which leads to long stretches of narrative clunkiness. ![]() The new TV series bearing the teenage spy’s name premieres on Friday on Amazon’s IMDb TV platform and it has already been renewed for a second season, meaning that audiences can feel some liberty to get invested. Welcome to the streaming revolution, Alex Rider. The feature adaptation of Anthony Horowitz’s well-liked espionage saga failed to make back even a modest budget and earned reviews that, at best, called the star-studded - Ewan McGregor! Damian Lewis! Alicia Silverstone! Mickey Rourke! Bill Nighy! - movie “forgettable.” By almost any standard, 2006’s Stormbreaker (or Alex Rider: Stormbreaker in the United States) was a disaster. ![]() ![]() ![]() This resets the sensor calibrations and all input/output to the factory state, giving a common starting point on which to build a map.

This not only upgrades the ECU to the newest release firmware but also blanks out all the settings so you can start with a fresh tune. If you have not already done so using a Stimulator the first step is to flash the newest firmware into the MS3X. Make sure you are reading the correct page for your ECU version.

In order to reach it you first must clear a small town on the road towards the objective - kill the AT soldiers first, then order your tanks to destroy the buildings the infantry hides in - that way your own infantry (if you bother with it) will have less casualties. Once you captured the nearby warehouse your next objective will be the city in the south-west. The third and last roadblock of the french is the toughest one since they positioned a proper light tank there - leave that to your tank hunters. In any event, fight your way south and then back into the north, following the path of the road. This will be an easy task as you can overwhelm each enemy position with sheer force (since there isn´t any room to maneuver I can´t really give much in tactical advice). You start the mission in the north-east corner of the map and are ordered to clear the main road in this sector from enemies. Dealing with that should pose no problem at all - I even managed to pull this first mission off without any casulties (that´s how easy it is).Īnother pretty easy mission and the last mission you will make real use of light tanks in this chapter. They still don´t know that we - the germans - have already overrun their defences on the east and defend their commanding officers just with a single AT-gun and a couple machine guns. Once you dealt with everything on the right side of the river cross the bridge and storm the weak defended enemy HQ. At this point in the mission I suggest sending one of your tanks to the north-west corner of the map near a small warehouse on the edge of the map - this will give you a HUGE reward: 2 free promotions on the chapter map! Anyways, move your army to the small village to your north-west and clear out the scout tanks and french infantry inside. What we see here is the successful use of the german "Blitzkrieg" tactic: the french still think they are controlling the town and the camp infront of it and are sending in these cannons to fortify the city you already took in a suprise attack. Once you captured the enemy town move your tanks down the road to the south and intercept some trucks that are towing some AT-guns. Quickly charge into the town as soon as the bombs have been dropped to intercept any surviving tanks with your tank hunter. ![]() After clearing out all enemy soldiers you need to hold positions for your bombers to make their run over the enemy city - several french tanks are parked there that would tear your weak Pz. To reduce your losses to a minimum you should call in a group of light tanks as reinforcements and have your whole tank group move to the small camp to your south - easy pickings. Quitting to the chapter map to assign a commander for your light tanks before doing this first mission is recommended, but not crucial. Definitly the fastest and most easy mission of the germans, which doesn´t require much tactical finesse. ![]() |
