Time Lapse Photography ofYonge and Dundas

I have been playing around with CHDK, a firmware upgrade for my Canon PowerShot SD630. The firmware allows me to take photos at a certain interval to create a time lapse movie. So I set things up overlooking the intersection of Yonge and Dundas and then used Photoshop to render the pictures into a video.

Rock Band drums vs Real World(tm) drums

Kevin Pereira, from G4TV Attack of the Show, plays drums with Coheed and Cambria. Now what I don’t know is if he already knows how to play the drums. Either way, the drums are probably the only instrument from Rock Band that might translate into the real thing.

And now for something completely different…

Royal de Luxe Sultan’s Elephant

Why can’t we have cool mechanical elephants stomping around Toronto?

From wikipedia:

The Sultan’s Elephant is a show created by the Royal de Luxe theatre company, involving a huge moving mechanical elephant and other associated public art installations. In French it is called La visite du sultan des Indes sur son éléphant à voyager dans le temps (literally, “Visit From The Sultan Of The Indies On His Time-Traveling Elephant”).

The elephant is made mostly of wood, and is operated by over ten puppeteers using a mixture of hydraulics and motors. It weighs 42 tons, as much as 7 African elephants. A replica of the elephant was built in Nantes (France) in 2007, as part of the Machines of the Isle of Nantes permanent exhibition.

Life is hard when you’re Darth Vader’s less-talented, less-charismatic younger brother and you manage a grocery store.
