“The robot” is one of the world’s most recognizable novelty dances. Its distinctive popping and locking motions are simple enough concepts in themselves but the origins of the robot are little less straightforward.

Software allows you to control faces of people from videos

Tuesday, March 22, 2016


A research team at Stanford University have developed Face2Face, a software that allows users to control the facial expressions of people in YouTube videos in real-time, by only using a webcam.

We present a novel approach for real-time facial reenactment of a monocular target video sequence (e.g., Youtube video). The source sequence is also a monocular video stream, captured live with a commodity webcam. Our goal is to animate the facial expressions of the target video by a source actor and re-render the manipulated output video in a photo-realistic fashion. To this end, we first address the under-constrained problem of facial identity recovery from monocular video by non-rigid model-based bundling. At run time, we track facial expressions of both source and target video using a dense photometric consistency measure. Reenactment is then achieved by fast and efficient deformation transfer between source and target. The mouth interior that best matches the re-targeted expression is retrieved from the target sequence and warped to produce an accurate fit. Finally, we convincingly re-render the synthesized target face on top of the corresponding video stream such that it seamlessly blends with the real-world illumination.

Proof of evolution that you can find on your body

Friday, March 18, 2016

Vox takes a look at evidence of evolution that can still be observed on the body of the modern human.
Forty-two percent of Americans say that humans were created in their present form within the past 10,000 years — a percentage that hasn't changed much since 1982, when Gallup started polling views on evolution.

Several lines of evidence, from the fossil record, comparative anatomy, and genetics, tell another story. But you don't have to read all the research to find signs of our evolutionary history — you can see it in the vestigial structures in each of our bodies, like the third molars that no longer fit in our mouths.

The Chart of Cosmic Exploration

Monday, March 14, 2016

The latest print from Pop Chart Lab charts down every space mission that left our planet's orbit, with a visual representation of the spacecraft and its path around the solar system.
Probe the solar system from Mercury to Pluto with this stellar schematic of space exploration! From the Luna 2 in 1959 to the DSCOVR in 2015, this color-coded chart traces the trajectories of every orbiter, lander, rover, flyby, and impactor to ever slip the surly bonds of Earth’s orbit and successfully complete its mission—a truly astronomical array of over 100 exploratory instruments in all. Featuring hand-illustrated renderings of each spacecraft juxtaposed against the serried giants of our solar system, this galactic survey is a testament to man’s forays into the grand cosmic ballet.

10 actors who died during a movie's production

Friday, March 11, 2016

Screen Rant narrator Rob Flis shares a few noteworthy cases of actors who died during the production of a film they were working on.
Film production can be a dangerous business. As we discussed in our video about 10 Incredibly Hard to Shoot Movie Scenes, getting the perfect action shot can sometimes mean pulling off very risky stunts that have the potential to go disastrously wrong. Fortunately most productions will have plenty of precautions and safeguards in place, which means that on-set deaths are very rare, but there are still some famous cases of actors who died while filming, and others who died before they could finish their current projects.

Gostbusters 2016: Nostalgia profiteering

Friday, March 11, 2016

After the release of the first full-length trailer for the upcoming Ghosbusters movie, YouTube user RamsesThePigeon points out that it's going to be just like the old one, in a hilarious video that uses the audio from said trailer set to video from the original Ghostbusters film.
In early 2016, viewers got their first look at the trailer for the new "Ghostbusters" movie.

It immediately incited a storm of disapproval, with some accusing it of being an attempt at cashing in on changing social perspectives, others insisting that critics were misogynistic in some way, and still more claiming that it just didn't seem funny.

My own issue with the movie is that we've apparently already seen it.
