Head Tracking for Desktop VR Displays using the WiiRemote
Just think about how awesome games like Call of Duty, Time Crisis, Metroid, and Metal Gear Solid would be. Even those boring targets floating in the air were exciting to watch.

I’m usually one of those people who hates the feeling of being advertised to. Not because i hate ads or consumption, but because ads are just so uncomfortably pervasive in our culture. I’m never really sure if im looking at art or “art”. This commercial however is so creative, and the idea is perfectly executed, [...]

David Elsewhere Heineken Commercial

If you do a search for “infomercial” on YouTube, you will find hundreds of infomercial parody videos. Nearly all of these parodies, however, are totally witless, completely unfunny, and an utter waste of time.

About me, Adam Hitchcock

This is my little corner of the Internet, welcome to it. It is my sounding horn for my views on democracy, the environment, security, computers, and code which is beautiful.
