Added 2 new A* pages:Was passed an interesting video on G+ today: video on Youtube So that's basically high-volume laser imaging, with the results being correlated together by fancy computer stuff to create a simulated video of light moving over/through objects at about 1 trillion frames per second, which is slow (fast) enough to show light pulses "moving" from one end of a soda bottle to another, for instance. Pretty neat idea. And because the computer keeps track of the time each bit of light takes to come back to the camera, it knows how far it traveled, which lets it do 3D reconstructions, even (blurrily) using light reflecting around a corner, as shown in the video. ~~~~~~~ The author of the webcomic Athra, a black and white Conan-ish adventure drawn in a neat digital scribbly style that I linked yesterday, saw that people were visiting the comic from my comic, and wrote up a nice link back. Gosh! Isn't it nice how the internet works sometimes. :) Thanks to them and of course to you lovely readers for actually following the silly links I put in this here news blog thingy. ~~~~~~~~ Various sketches from today--the big top one is from the back of page 63, because I screwed up the first attempt I made at it, and had some blank space left over on the page before I flipped it over to try the page again :p:
