Busy, Busy

     I'd post more if I could. 

     For now, if you don't like what you hear on NPR news, why not try rearranging it?  "Don't Play With Your News" is an art/game website that lets you assemble newscast snippets (choose your anchor) and then play them back.  Fascinating.

     This software uses a remarkably intuitive user interface that would make editing spoken-word programs a snap.  It relies on good speech-to-text software, which is only getting better.  It's a toy now, but you're looking at the future.

    I'm waiting for CGI to get so good that we don't need actors anymore.

    They've obviously considered the fact that many of us are twelve years old on the inside, certain words yield nothing in a search. (Not even "Uranus"!)
