RIP: Irvin Kershner
More sad news today, director Irvin Kershner has died. In many ways he's a little known director, but to every chimp he is the man responsible for lifting the Star Wars saga from 'blockbuster' to 'epic'. His fantastic touch on The Empire Strikes Back elevated Star Wars into a totally different league, with classy assured direction and some beautifully storyboarded scenes - particularly those light on effects. A true master.

Google Googles
Ever since Shazam wowed the world with their call-this-premium-number-to-ID-some-music trick, I've been wondering when the concept will expand to other searches - such as faces, book covers, posters and more. Google goggles does that through their Google App.
Only problem is, if it's a book cover you can probably already tell what it is, by the power of eyes. Check out two tests below of stuff in my office. Goggles ID'd Jennifer Aniston OK, but for some reason they think the Chimpomatic logo belongs to The Misfits...

v interesting photography blog: guess the lighting
"Armed with only a wacom tablet, less-than-mediocre drawing skills and an acute sense of smell, professional photographer Ted Sabarese guesses how individual images were lit by other photographers and then sketches corresponding lighting diagrams. It's what you always wanted to know but didn't know who to ask."
