This handsome chap is a professor at NYU and he is going under the knife soon, not to get a new pair of boobs, but to have a camera attached to the back of his head via a piercing type system. The reason? To broadcast photos every 60 seconds to monitors at the Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art in Qatar. Gizmodo has more information on the weird yet wonderful experiment that brings to life the age old saying “Eyes on the back of my head!”

The Expendables take over Youtube with some explosions to shiver your timbers! Sly Stallone takes center stage for a really well executed Youtube take over to advertise the Expendables film. The quality of the text around the page is a little giveaway to the fact it isn’t a real Youtube video - but who cares, there are guns and explosions involved!!

The Muybridgizer app by Tate!
Check out this new app from the Tate, to coincide with their exhibition on the revolutionary photographer, Eadweard Muybridge.
“The Muybridgizer allows iPhone photographers to take pictures inspired by the iconic works of early photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The release of the app celebrates the opening of a major exhibition of Muybridge’s work at Tate Britain (8 September 2010 – 16 January 2011).”
It basically turns a series of your photos into the style of his famous ‘study series’ of moving animals/people. Try it here!

Ever dropped your phone down the toilet? Next time picking it out could give you a nasty surprise if your not careful.
Medical researchers are putting money into a new technology that could diagnose you with what nasty STD’s you may have picked up just by peeing on a simcard and inserting it back into your phone. A message would be sent to you within minutes and the device would work pretty similar to a pregnancy test. The aim is to encourage people to test themselves without any embarrassment, which i totally understand, however i don’t fancy walking around with my phone smelling like a urinal!

A 4D Projection Mapping Event with Ralph Lauren on New Yorks Madison Avenue. This event took projection mapping to the next level making the event 4D with blasts of perfume covering the crowds watching the event. Now they just need to invent 4D Macs so that the rest of us can smell it too!

A quick way to take video screengrabs and share them via Twitter. We have seen photo sharing on Twitter since (almost) day one but now we can share video too. And it is really simple too, so simple that we are sure that people will be sharing videos of things accidentally, or on purpose, of some naughty content your mother, and your followers, should really never see.

Projection Mapping into a Nike Trainer…this comes close to the best bit of projection mapping we have seen so far. We love this new tech that everyone is getting so excited about and this is a fantastic new example of how the tech can be used in an inventive way - onto a trainer instead of a building! And this is a pleasantly short projection too, so you won’t get bored!
