Another visitor? Stay a while... Stay... FOREVER!

I possibly smell a new hallowe'en song coming up.

Someone's bike parked outside of Cagibi while I was having an organic soda beverage.

I'm going to colour this poster, but it won't be done for a while.

A significantly higher quality video can be downloaded, or streamed here. (I recommend watching that rather than the Youtube version)

I made this video yesterday. It is the first time I've ever made a video.

Lesson learned: Thin black lines on a white background, and vice versa, do not show up well on Youtube.

Most of the footage is either from the 3DVCE or Critters software, both use Darwinian evolution to create virtual life forms.

The rest of the footage is either stock, or I stole it.

The mp3 can be downloaded here.

Virtual creature evolution!

Lately I'm obsessed with evolutionary biology, and the mechanisms of evolution in general. My interest got sparked by taking part in the debates on Youtube between creationists/intelligent design proponents and those who accept evolution.

I found this set of videos of creatures that were virtually evolved by Lee Graham, who attends the School of Computer Science, Carleton University in Ottawa.

I was inspired to help him out with his research, and donate some CPU time for evolving virtual creatures. This is the first one that I've evolved:

"Baile Funkish' or "A Perfect CBC Theme REMIX!"

Today I made this.

I sampled the horn line from this.
