May be you will immediately try getting their hands on iHologram app for your iPhone. Unfortunately, the video (posted above), as it’s author David O’Reilly admitted , was actually fake.
In reality it should work like this: the iHologram application for the iphone/ipod touch, gives the illusion of a 3D hologram jumping off the screen, reacting to the movement of the built-in gyroscope iphone is equipped with. Attached you can see a video of it in use, featuring the cat from David’s award-winning but unfinished cartoon. David admitted that the application wasn’t for real, making a public statement: “The iHologram was an illustration of an idea I had which I believe could work with the technology (combining anamorphosis and motion sensing) iPhone is equipped with.
Unfortunately I’m just an ideas person, and I can show how things should look, but I’m no hardcore programmer.”
Regarding our previous post, and my suggestion regarding Google web gadgets, I haven’t had much response. Wouldn’t you like me to mention your site in my upcoming articles? Can the gadget even be found through Blogger’s gadget tab? I’m eager to find out!

Pilobolus .Dancing and Magic

Pilobolus  emerged was a collaborative choreographic process and a unique weight-sharing approach to partnering that gave the young company a non-traditional but powerful new set of skills with which to make dances. The group was immediately acclaimed for its startling mix of humor and invention and Pilobolus soon became a self-sufficient organization, its members choreographing, dancing, managing, and publicizing their own programs.

Pilobolus has developed from this ad hoc dance collective into a unique American arts organization with three major branches of activity: Pilobolus Dance Theatre, our 7-person touring company; The Pilobolus Institute, an umbrella for all our educational programming; and Pilobolus Creative Services, an administrative structure allowing us to coordinate creative activity with both commercial and artistic organizations outside our own company.

Today Pilobolus is recognized as a major American dance company of international influence. It has not, however, forsaken its original impetus. The company remains a deeply collaborative effort with an executive director, three artistic directors and seven dancers contributing to one of the most popular and varied repertoires in the field. Its many decades of consistent artistic activity now stand as a testament to the group’s remarkable fruitfulness and longevity.

Is not convincing , but the bank did . They destroyed all bills and reprinted them with a slightly changed version.
