Class on a Saturday ... zzzzzzzz
Class today was the bomb! My eyes were closing and all but I had fun listening to what was going on :) My prof told us about this guy who's a genius. Pure genius and he writes his own codes and stuff but they are COOL and UNDERSTANDABLE. He came up with this programme for the Wii three years ago (before the Kinect) which would allow you to control your screen with a Wiimote which is cool like even a techno noob like me was impressed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5s5EvhHy7eQ shows how he turned a projector into a high tech whiteboard using just a wii remote. LIKE WHOA. IMPRESSIVE *NODS* ok maybe I'm easily impressed but seriously it's so cool! I wanna try it out with my wiiiiiii :DAnd my impression of him soared to a totally different level today like the respect went up one entire notch. We were discussing creativity and how if you dangle a carrot (or rather green bucks) in front of people to get them to be creative/innovative it usually backfires especially if you reduce the amount of money you pay them. Then he mentioned that Shakespeare's sonnets were initially commissioned to be written and he was paid for the first 17 sonnets (he says sonnets with French intonation like soh-nehs) and I was like o.O not many people even know Shakespeare's sonnets EXIST. Which got me thinking about creativity ... but that's another story. In short, this prof has my respect man.
Just got back from reunion dinner ... nomm nommm :)
