A facebook warning animation
Everytime the [loveMachine] runs over my profile, it takes a screenshot of the page when it’s done. At first, it was a way for me to see if it was really doing its job and to catch the Facebook warning messages that might have appeared during the process. But since a couple months now, I’ve…

Vidéomaton de la Zinneke
Afin d’enregistrer les préparatifs de la Zinneke et de jouer avec le thème “Tentation / Bekoring” de cette année, Olivier Meunier et moi-même avons proposé de mettre en place ce qu’on a joyeusement appelé un vidéomaton. Le principe est simple: il s’agit d’un ordinateur avec une webcam, un écran et deux boutons, un “record” et…

15 sunsets and sunrises per day
What is weighting 400 tons, measures 100m wide and flies at 27,000 km/hour just 400 km above our head? The 14 year old, 150 billion dollars, human build, habitable satellite we call International Space Station, or ISS, or call name: Alpha. Well, this spacecraft has fascinated me since its beginnings. I’m not sure I would…

Ring My Bell #CoverTuesday
The number 1 fan of my cover Tuesdays rang my bell yesterday night, complaining that I didn’t publish anything this Tuesday, and the Tuesday before that and that I wasn’t really consistent anymore. And it’s true. I have a responsibility before you. I started this a year ago. And I never thought I’d run dry.…

Slides of the presentation @RecyclartBXL
Presentation of the [loveMachine] is in a couple hours at Recyclart and I thought it would be great to use the Facebook itself as presentation tool. So the obvious choice was to create a set of pictures and upload them as an album. Once the first picture of the album is shown, I could even…

100 views of summertime
Is George Gershwin’s “Summertime” the Mount Fuji of music covers? Looking for a cover I heard on the radio this morning, I stumbled on this blog that lists a hundred versions of the song. Apart from Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald, Mahalia Jackson or Ray Charles, I didn’t expect to find the Doors, R.E.M. or Morcheeba…

Finally Facebook implements the “dislike”… but it’s complicated
Since all my likes are handled by the [loveMachine], I found myself looking for other things to do on Facebook. That’s when I stumbled on the (hidden) “dislike” function. Since it’s a long awaited feature, I must warn you that it’s not as easy as the “like”. It requires at least 3 clicks, works only…
