Longitude (2000) TV - Jeremy Irons (Rupert Gould)
Jeremy Irons : Rupert Gould I only hope you enjoy this Video. The film's main story is that of craftsman John Harrison: he built a clock that would do the job, what we would now call a marine chronometer. But the Board of Longitude was biased against this approach and claiming the prize was no simple matter. Told in parallel is the 20th century story of Rupert Gould, for whom the restoration of Harrison's clocks to working order became first a hobby, then an obsession that threatened to wreck his life.

Tour the Original M*A*S*H TV Set in HD
As with many Generation Xers, I remember seeing MASH on CBS, and watching the reruns. In my case, it was usually after the 10 pm news that I tuned in to watch the show throughout the mid-80's. I happened to be by Malibu Creek State Park on a recent visit to the Los Angeles area and decided to take the 2.1 mile hike to the famous outside TV set and take some video. I hope you enjoy it. Of note, the indoor shots were filmed on Stage 9 at Twentieth Century Fox Studios in California. The park is located four miles south of Highway 101 on Las Virgenes / Malibu Canyon Road. Latitude/Longitude: 34.1033 / -118.7331 about 25 miles from LA The park is part of the Santa Monica mountains near Malibu in Calabasas. If you want to learn more about M*A*S*H and the site, I suggest the following links: Visiting the MASH Set and Malibu Creek State Park www.malibucreekstatepark.org www.hikespeak.com www.yelp.com Learning about M*A*S*H en.wikipedia.org www.imdb.com www.youtube.com

A History of the World in 100 Seconds
Many wikipedia articles have coordinates. Many have references to historic events. Me (@godawful) and Tom Martin (@heychinaski) cross referenced the two to create a dynamic visualization of Wikipedia's view of world history. Watch as empires fall, wars break out and continents are discovered.
This won "Best Visualization" at Matt Patterson's History Hackday in January, 2011. To make it, we parsed an xml dump of all wikipedia articles (30Gb) and pulled out 424,000 articles with coordinates and 35,000 references to events. Cross referencing these produced 15,500 events with locations. Then we mapped them over time.

Test HD-DSLR Canon EOS 5D MK II (1) - 720p
[Para leer con más detalle el texto de este mini-tutorial con sus imágenes y enlaces correspondientes visita http://juliogm.wordpress.com/2010/03/04/video-test-hd-dslr-canon-eos-5d-mk-ii-1-720p/]
Este es el primero de una serie de vídeos -necesariamente breves- en los que pruebo las capacidades más elementales y simples de grabación de vídeo en esta y otras DSLR de Canon.
En la primera entrega se pueden ver imágenes de las siguientes pruebas básicas:
* Aberturas de diafragma y sus efectos en la imagen.
* Velocidades de obturación y sus efectos en la imagen.
NOTA: Históricamente ha habido dos posibles explicaciones a la pregunta de por qué el ser humano puede ver imagen en movimiento:
1. La persistencia retiniana (una imagen permanece en la retina humana una décima de segundo antes de desaparecer completamente. Esto permite que veamos la realidad como una secuencia de imágenes ininterrumpida y que podamos calcular fácilmente la velocidad y dirección de un objeto que se desplaza).
Este fundamento ha sido puesto en tela de juicio por numerosos neurólogos, sobre todo a partir de los años 80 cuando se enunció la teoría del fenómeno phi.
2. El fenómeno phi (no existe retención sino incapacidad del ojo para distinguir rápidamente estímulos repetidos mas allá de cierto límite. Ese límite de la percepción en sí mismo no es otro que el del fenómeno del movimiento aparente, denominado efecto PHI. Esta teoría está ilustrada con un ejemplo muy sencillo:
Si se colocan dos luces, una junto a otra, que se encienden alternativamente, cuando los focos van a una velocidad que rebasa el límite, el espectador no ve dos luces, sino una que se mueve de un lado a otro.
El límite perceptual se refiere al tiempo mínimo que un estímulo visual debe durar para poder ser percibido. No es que nuestros ojos retengan esa imagen, sino que las separaciones entre una imagen y otra no duran lo suficiente para ser percibidas).
Ese límite, en cualquier caso, está entre las 43 y las 45 imágenes por segundo. Por eso la velocidad de obturación más cercana a la visión humana en estas cámaras es la de 1/50.
En las cámaras de cine (con emulsión fotoquímica) el cálculo se ha realizado siempre colocando el ángulo del obturador a 180º. Este es un estándar que asociamos al "look" cinematográfico, aunque, por supuesto, no se emplea constantemente ni en todas las escenas.
Para entendernos, la equivalencia de cualquier ángulo del obturador (en cámaras donde este sea mecánico) respecto a la velocidad de obturación (con obturación electrónica o no) se calcula multiplicando el número de imágenes por segundo por los grados de un ciclo completo (360º) y dividiéndolo por el ángulo de obturación que se quiere imitar.
Hasta hace poco en la EOS 5D MK II había que conformarse con emplear un número de fps fijo (30) pero desde que se ha actualizado el firmware de este modelo para admitir cadencias de 24 y 25p, lo ideal si se busca el look citado es grabar a 24 fps.
Es decir que si buscamos ese aspecto (propio del ángulo del obturador a 180º en las cámaras de cine) la operación a realizar sería la siguiente:
24 x 360 / 180 = 48 (o sea, 1/50 sería la velocidad más cercana).
Velocidades superiores producirán un efecto de "staccato", velocidades inferiores producirán un desenfoque de movimiento.
Estos efectos pueden buscarse a propósito (el "staccato" es fundamental , por ejemplo, en los primeros 15 minutos de "Salvad al soldado Ryan").
Si no es así, es conveniente exponer combinando ISO y abertura de diafragma y no modificar la velocidad de obturación.
En cualquier caso siempre y cuando se grabe en exteriores podemos movernos en la horquilla entre los 1/30 y los 1/125 segs. sin demasiadas consecuencias.
En interiores en cambio, es fundamental tener presente la frecuencia de la corriente eléctrica (si no es continua).
* Sensibilidades ISO y sus efectos en la imagen.
NOTA: El ruido electrónico, sobre todo debido a errores de cuantificación en las zonas más oscuras de la imagen, comienza a ser apreciable sólo en los pasos superiores a las siguientes sensibilidades ISO (en las cuales la imagen aún aparece totalmente limpia):
- Canon EOS 7D: entre 800 y 1000 ISO
(su ISO máximo es de 12800 en vídeo)
- Canon EOS 5D Mark II: 1600 ISO
(su ISO máximo es de 12800 en vídeo)
- Canon EOS 1D Mark IV: 3200 ISO
(su ISO máximo es de 102400 en vídeo)
Esto no significa que no se puedan usar sensibilidades mayores (cuando hay suficiente luz, el ruido presente en la imagen no es molesto hasta alcanzar sensibilidades aún superiores).
Con poca luz, es posible que la imagen del LCD muestre ruido de crominancia. En las fotos, el ruido de crominancia no se registra. Sin embargo, en los vídeos, el ruido de crominancia se registrará casi de la misma manera que se ve en la pantalla LCD.
* Estilos de imagen
- Monocromo (filtro rojo, para contrastar cielos).
- Monocromo (filtro verde

Isora
Español:
Avance del documental “Isora, historia de una manada de calderones”, que relata la vida de una manada de calderones residentes en las islas Canarias, de su espacio y de los habitantes que comparten ese espacio. Financiado por la Fundación Canaria Mapfre Guanarteme y realizado por Aquawork producciones, que se presentará a finales del 2012.
ISORA es la matriarca de uno de los grupos de calderones tropicales que residen y utilizan la costa oriental de la isla de Tenerife. Este sector de mar se haya al resguardo de los vientos alisios, dando lugar a aguas encalmadas la mayor parte del año.
Pese a su tamaño y apariencia, el calderón tropical (Globicephala macrorhynchus), es un delfín emparentado con las orcas. Los machos pueden alcanzar una longitud de 5 m, un metro más que las hembras, pero pesan el doble. Viven en grupos estrechamente emparentados y la mayoría de sus miembros permanecen juntos de por vida.

Preview of the documentary "Isora, story of a pod of pilot whales," in which it is narrated the life of a pod of pilot whales living in Canary Islands, as well as their space and the residents sharing that space. It is financed by the Canarian Foundation Mapfre Guanarteme and produced by Aquawork Productions, and it will be presented at the end of 2012.
Isora is the matriarch of one of the pods of tropical pilot whales living in the Eastern coast of the island of Tenerife. This area of the sea is sheltered from trade wind, and this cause the sea to become calm for the most part of the year.
Despite of its size and shape, the tropical pilot whale (Globicephala Macrorhynchus), is a dolphin related to killer whales. Males can reach five metres long, one metre more than females, but they weigh twice as heavy. They live in closely related pods and most of their members live together for life.

I'm teaching science now but my friend & colleague requested something to help students remember and understand how latitude and longitude work. There are references to Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, and Bob Dylan. Special thanks to my daughter for making the Dylanesque cards and to my son for loaning me his football jersey. Go Rams! Enjoy!

Aero-TV: GPS Data On Your iPAD - Guardian Avionics Bluetooth Aero 454
Ash Vij Expands The Capabilities Of His Product Line In An Imaginative (And Useful) Way Its one thing to come up with a unique product... say, like the amazing CO Guardian product line sold for a number of years by Ash Vij and his CO Guardian organization... but its something else entirely to take that same technology and repurpose it in new, useful and highly creative ways. Like he has with the Aero 454. Guardian Avionics' (by CO Guardian, LLC.) newest instrument for 21st century panels, the Aero 454, receives data from your airplane's Garmin GPS system (430, 530, 650750,G900, G1000) and transmits it simultaneously to as many as THREE iPad/tablet devices held by pilots or passengers. An FAA/TSO certified product, it can reference locations, maps, flight plans in the Panel Mounted GPS's, approaches, departures, etc. on your iPad/tablet. There is no GPS signal loss because of banking or a heated windshield and will delight your passengers with ETA through their iPad - eliminating those "Are we there yet?" questions, because it interfaces with 21st century iPads/tablets like nothing else can. The Aero 454 (with CO detector) mounts easily in most panels; though CO Guardian units are factory installed in all new Cessna 172, 182, 206, 350, 400, Cirrus SR20, SR22, Diamond DA40 and Skycrane helicopter models. Staying in touch with its roots, the Model 454 device is also designed to detect, measure, and provide alerts to the crew of reciprocating engine type aircraft before the <b>...</b>
