The Smart Book

By Andrew
The strength of any technology is modularisation and standardisation. The ability to swap out and redesign, giving anyone the opportunity to easily innovate on the original concept. It’s the very reason PCs overshadow Macs and it’s the reason the concept of open source is not just an ideal but an absolute necessity. Innovation, modularisation and open source, these are the concepts that define the California based startup; Always Innovating. They are known for the Touch Book which combines a tablet and netbook to create a remarkably adaptive mobile device. They have just released their latest product; the Smart Book, which sets a new level of versatility in mobile devices. Check the video:



This is definitely not for Apple fans, it requires a bit of tech savvy to really appreciate it's features but this really is something special. It is a little expensive but considering it's diverse "swiss army knife" feature set i'd say it's justifiable. Hats off to Always Innovating.

Quake3 in HD

By Andrew
Dust off the old PK3 files: Although it's over 10 years old, Quake 3 is still being played in offices around the world. Since id software has open sourced the Quake 3 engine; a community of developers has created an updated engine called ioquake3 and has recently also included a high resolution texture pack . ioquake3 is 100% compatable with Quake3 v1.32 so you will be able to join servers running the original Quake3 engine and vice versa. All you will need are the original pk3 files found in your Quake 3 baseq3 folder.

Die Antwoord Is Conceptual Art

By Andrew
“Corporate giants can’t fuck with the link between our art and our clients”, one of the many recycled phrases in Waddy Jones ’ arsenal. This middle class English-speaking white boy from Randburg has spent many years perfecting the art of rap but lyrical gymnastics alone won’t pay the bills. Keeping it real was ironically not his claim to fame, completely redefining his personality to a stereotypical white trash South African reflecting a prominent hardcore sub-culture was what got him there. “Ninja” is probably the only aspect of the zen loving individual that’s been carried through to Die Antwoord .

Understanding the Fourth Dimension

By Andrew
I was lying in bed contemplating existence when i had an epiphany (as one does :P). As the title suggests; i was exploring the fourth dimension, more specifically the fourth dimension of space rather than ‘time’ as a fourth dimension. While my profession is logic based, i’m not a mathematician. Certain areas of maths and physics deal with up to and beyond eleven dimensions but i was trying to get a layman's understanding of the fourth spacial dimension. Something to satisfy subconscious curiosity.
