sunset view from the pier in Binz (vertorama)

It’s been a while since I posted the last ver­torama, but there weren’t really that many square motifs where I went. Enter the sun­set view from the See­brücke (pier) in Binz on Rügen! Even though it looks very roman­tic, it was freez­ing (well, not freez­ing but pretty darn) cold out there with a stiff breeze …

Inspiration II

Auss­chnitt aus der Ein­führung einer etwas jün­geren Dis­ser­ta­tion bei uns: … Anwen­dun­gen wie E-Mail, WWW sowie ins­beson­dere der Aus­tausch von dig­i­talen Musik­stücken und Fil­men aber auch Com­put­er­spiele führen dabei zu einem zunehmenden Bedarf an Band­bre­ite und stellen somit den ökonomis­chen Motor für die Weit­er­en­twick­lung beste­hen­der Kom­mu­nika­tion­snetze dar. … Ille­gales File­shar­ing ist also der ökonomis­che Motor …

JSOVT(MB): Strandpromenade Binz in b/w

So yeah, this looks a bit dif­fer­ent. But I’ve been to the Hel­mut New­ton – SUMO exhi­bi­tion today and felt inspired to try some­thing new, Newton-ish (the only thing miss­ing to make this indis­tin­guish­able from a real New­ton is prob­a­bly a healthy amount of ISO1600-like noise and the model being nude…) This was taken on …

the MATLAB diaries

I do a lot of tin­ker­ing in MATLAB. And some­times I’ll have to do a sim­i­lar sort of task again, after a few weeks or months – like maybe when new data wants to be visu­al­ized in the man­ner of old data. Now MATLAB has a built-in his­tory, a buffer of the last 20 kBytes of …

Colosseum panorama

This was the first glimpse of the Colos­seum we had dur­ing our stay in Rome ear­lier this year, just hav­ing exited the sub­way sta­tion. It was a Sun­day which I guess meant that there were no cars allowed in parts of the inner city. That’s why peo­ple are walk­ing all over the road – but …

Demokratieversagen

Ich kann’s nicht mehr hören. Alle [Poli­tiker] jam­mern rum, dass die Wahlbeteili­gung zur Europawahl so niedrig aus­fiel. Ist auch kein Wun­der, wenn es einem quasi unmöglich gemacht wird, seine Stimme abzugeben. Da wir let­zte Woche unter­wegs waren, aber trotz­dem mit­spie­len woll­ten, haben Julia und ich rechtzeitig (mehr als anderthalb Wochen vor der Wahl) unsere jew­eili­gen …
