IKEA adds AR to 2013 Print Catalog – Meh!

GeoMagnetic Location Awareness – IndoorAtlas
by Fred Abler I’ve long suspected I may have a kind of magnetic sixth sense. I seem to ‘feel space’ more acutely than others. And at the key moments in my life, I am overcome by a feeling I can … Continue reading

Marauder’s Map.. 3D Holograms from your SketchUp Models
by Fred Abler As the saying goes, any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. And it’s this dichotomy that, for me, makes the Harry Potter series so charming. By flipping the context, much of today’s internet technology still looks… … Continue reading

DiWIRE – 3D Wireforms..from your SketchUp files
by Fred Abler I’ve always loved Alexander Calder. He was shabby, irascible, and brilliant in almost any media. The prolific American artist expressed himself effortlessly in sheet metal, wire, plywood, string, free-carving, and paint. And quite often, a combination of … Continue reading
