yo yo yo yo yo so i just took a train to a taxi to the marina mac store to edit some trash crew video and oh yeah BUY MY NEW MACBOOK, AND THE WORLD SHAKES. I GOT 2.2 GHZ 160gb internal, 2 gig ram, and i got a minidvi-vga chord. and chinese new years was going off last night, and i think chris and sean should be on massive. and as for portland i want to make a chariot out of a shopping cart, who wants to help?? and we should get smurfs car over to the sweet to figure out just how many bikes we can fit on his little tin box. and yes we should bring one if not two projectors. we need to invest in a 700-1000 watt inverter (between here and PDX)? off to get some dinner and get back to the cruz

HD VIMEO vs masonic gugleplex vs HD VIMEO
hey hows it going just finished the vulcan edit its seconds less than 60mins.
obviously vimeo is better than youtube but doesn't get enough attention. still I'm going to be posting on there from now on because it accepts HD and has 5x the weekly storage allowment of youtube.
vimeo doesn't have a 10 minute/100mb file limit either, so I put up the whole vlogjellyfishaquarium in one peice, in HD on vimeo and it plays beautifully in both HD flash and SD flash! though I don't think the streamlinks work in HD, to see videos in fullHD requires viewing the video on the page.
you know heres a great example heres my video. you can watch an unnoticeably compressed version in the link below, or you can click on it to watch the HD version on vimeo. I suggest either way because the quality is phenomenally higher than youtubes. either way watch fullscreen, only this time press full screen, dont just zoom into the screen, because on vimeo, like you'll find out. fullscreen HD is the equivelent to watching a DVD, with the same hidden controller features.

notice that vimeo has embedding costomization as well, so I can change the colours, sizes, and information listed with the flash stream. vimeo is so much better than youtube, it would be decidedly foolish not to use it.

tubetv still rips vimeo files, but vimeo also lets you download your own files on other computers like google video, and yes in HD
vimeo has a higher success rate of "findability" compared to the difficulty of youtubes ever increasingly infinite maze of streaming videos...
vimeo has a OFFICIAL VJ CHANNEL and would probably flip out if we sent them some of our stuff..
which will be on youtube and vimeo soon by the way...
heres vimeos official vj channel:

der.
and the search bar is hidden until you click on it, its a lot prettier...
youtube is google, vimeo is better :)
all and all vimeo is for people who have shit they have high standards for, but dont care if millions see it or not, and its not like youtube is necessarily the place for that anymore, either...
but in case you didnt get it post on sites that will last forever, because streams are unreliable. this massive already has some dead links now because of copyright or whatever youtube took them down.
the more we create and back up on lasting sites the better, and while youtube has a higher percent lookup, vimeo is mroe aimed at planned video art. the difference between youtube, vimeo, veoh and bloggervideo is huge and each has its own purpose, veoh could be great for the vulcan project... people could download it after a 5 minute preview if they wanted...
der 2008 welkomen
AND WILL SOMEONE GET TRASH CREW CHRIS ON MASSIVE.

EXCERPTS FROM ARKAOS DEVELOPER CONVERSATION
EXCERPTS FROM A CONVERSATION WITH THE HEAD OF THE THE ARKAOS DEVELOPMENT TEAM:
ANDREAS NICHOLAS WROTE:
> ...I sometimes wonder if anybody really understands the true potential of this program.....
PIERRE GUILLUY WROTE:
> [IN TERMS OF AN AUDIO ENGINE] I know there's a lot to do with sound, and that's why we won't release a
half working feature.
ANDREAS NICHOLAS WROTE:
> I thought I'd mention that one thing I've been really thinking about
> is how much arkaos should be able to control actionscript games.
> having control of flash games, being able to set their controllers to
> different keys or controllers possibly. I don't know what that would
> entail, but being able to put swf games into arkaos would be HUGE.
> controlling live effects etc. the wii controller... think of the children!
>
PIERRE GUILLUY WROTE:
The flash support on mac will be enhanced in the next version coming in
a few weeks.
Because I like to experiment, I'm playing with the wiimote and my
computer at home, and indeed, there's a huge potential around that!
ANDREAS NICHOLAS WROTE:
> I do this with a video input now because I don't know how else to live
> effect games, but mashup is still young...
>
PIERRE GUILLUY WROTE:
The best will come ;-)
>
> keep up the good work!
