A necessidade de fazer com que o ser humano se abstenha de uma forma básica de trabalho, no qual herdará problemas físicos, fez com que nossa produção não se limitasse e, que de forma alguma, limitasse o usuário quanto seu posicionamento e suas ações, movimentos e etc.

Utilizar o próprio corpo humano como armazenador e processador de dados é nosso foco de início para a criação de um sistema operacional, leia-se interface, que dará espaço, ou melhor dizendo, será representado por holografia e acessado por movimentos corporais básicos.

2. MOTIVAÇÃO

A necessidade de fazer com que o meio de trabalho e suas limitações não prejudiquem o corpo humano física e mentalmente, e também a admiração por holografia fez com que procurássemos propor um sistema comportado e acessado pelo corpo humano com imagens holográficas servindo como interface visual entre homem e computador.

Explicamos o uso da holografia pelo fato de que a visão é o sentido mais aguado do ser humano quanto a reconhecimento, e o uso do próprio corpo para acessar dados e demais necessidades porque desta maneira estamos possibilitando a não stagnação do mesmo e também a geração de energia, por mais que seja mínima, a cada movimento.

3. PROBLEMA

Pesquisas mostram que há um grande número de usuários de computadores com lesões por esforços repetitivos. Máquinas mal projetadas, espaço de trabalho reduzido, movimentos repetitivos e síncronos, dentre outras coisas, fazem com que o corpo humano se definhe e sofra lesões crônicas em certos membros.

Os problemas ergonômicos, normalmente, estão associados às reduzidas dimensões do acesso ao espaço confinado.

Não somente problemas físicos, as formas atuais e convencionais de trabalho podem gerar também problemas aos processos mentais. Para isso estuda-se a Ergonomia Cognitiva, que se refere a estes processos. A esse conjunto inclui-se a carga mental de trabalho, vigilância, tomada de decisão, desempenho de habilidades, erro humano, interação humano-computador e treinamento.

Propusemos uma solução ao problema procurando desenvolver um sistema que fosse alocado e acessado diretamente no corpo humano e pelo próprio corpo humano, por meio de toques e outras interações naturais, levando-se em conta pesquisas que mostram a grande capacidade do corpo humano em gerar energia.

Desta forma movimentos que possam prejudicar a saúde do ser, e a redução dos espaços convencionais de trabalho seriam eliminados.

4. METODOLOGIA

Embasamento em testes, publicações e pesquisas sobre hologramas e a capacidade do corpo humano em gerar e armazenar energia.

5. RESULTADOS ESPERADOS

Desenvolvimento de uma linha de pesquisa promovendo uma projeção futura de como poderíamos resolver os problemas ergonômicos na relação humano-computador, livrando o ser humano das limitações físicas que lhe são impostas, e também fazer uso da grande capacidade do corpo humano, a maior e mais complexa e fascinante máquina capaz de raciocinar e abstrair dados, a fim de chegar a um resultado qualitativo sobre os problemas a serem resolvidos.

From the maker of ETIM Clock - Sungho Lee, here another design that maybe can spice up your room spaces. Unlike most tables used for only one purpose and having just one appearance, this table is customized to function as both a tea table and work desk. The design provides different looks for each purpose. After lifting the ‘hidden table tops’ twice, the cute tea table is transformed into a convenient desk. The front drawer can store big magazines and newspapers.

When tiling a tie … if the image that has been tiled is too small for your liking .. go to ” edit ” top right of design tool .. select ” select all ”

then on the top box on the design tool that has your image .. use the maximize button and all the images will increase in size simultaneously .. alternatively you can also decrease the size

If you like the tie in the tutorial you can buy it

(Filed under 10-12 Region 1)

Looks a lot like Childerella's castle, if I say so myself :) Even though there are a ton of creative ones to choose from, I voted for them, duh.

I also love the K-3 Region 2  & the K-3 Region 3 one just cracks me up.

I have been relatively silent on my blog in the past month because my camera died and because I've been wrapped up in the procedure of moving where I was living temporarily in Whistler, BC down to a permanent home in Vancouver.  I am still in transition as I write this from my friend's computer in San Francisco, where I'm visiting while my husband packs up his things that we're moving up to Canada.  All this chaos doesn't mean that I haven't been creating, however!! I've got even more things on the go now than ever.

Literally as we were moving, and on the road,  I was unravelling this lusciously soft and furry sweater, and dyeing it was the first project I did in my new apartment.  This soft puffy cap is the result.  It is knit on the round in diagonal brioche stitch, I'll post the 'pattern' later.  With the yarn dyeing I was going for a much more even turquoise or aqua, but because there was so much yarn in the pot, and I added more dye as the bath progressed, it turned out quite variegated, which disappointed me.  Knitting up in this kind of stitch, however, helps to even out the color, and avoid the obvious pooling that happens with stockinette stitch and space dyed yarns.  I have a bunch more of the same - this cap only used part of one of the 5 or 6 skeins I've got.  So I'm considering overdyeing some of it, and I may make some more of these caps as gifts, because it was an ultra-fast knit.

Now, on vacation, I've got various unfinished projects with me, and to add to that I've started another - a lace shrug, which I'm hoping to finish in time to wear it to a wedding this coming Saturday.  Good luck.... I also have to finish sewing the skirt and top that I am planning to wear, and buy a pair of shoes!!  I definitely go overboard... from time to time!  Whatever comes together I will post after the event, but this is the beginning of the shrug, which is made of a recycled rayon/angora blend yarn held doubled.

Some time ago I told myself that after my first day in the Hague I was going to take a swim in the sea. This, I am now going to do. If you shouldnt' hear from me again, the shark problem in the North Sea is clearly more prevalent than people had sofar imagined...

Jordan Times says:

"...Also yesterday, the Monarch laid the foundation stone of the multimillion-dinar King Abdullah Park, which is expected to serve one million residents of Muqablain and the surrounding areas, providing inhabitants of east Amman with breathing space.

Designed by the office of Danish landscape architect Jeppe Aagard Andersen, the project will include sports fields, IT and social services centres, in addition to pedestrian paths and restaurants.

Construction work on the 505-dunum park has already started, with the first phase of the project expected to be ready by mid-2009, and the rest scheduled for completion in 2011.

The park is part of the ambitious master plan, which focuses on upgrading infrastructure and services in areas recently added to the Greater Amman Municipality (GAM)..."

Jeppe has been working on this project for some time and I want to congratulate him and Amman for this project. I think it will be truly innovative and give people a new experience in the way of creating a public recreational area with the use of high-tech. From the plans and sketches I have seen this has the potential of becoming a landmark in Amman. But its success of course depends on its daily users and their desire to exploit the park to the maximum while keeping it nice, clean and presentable. I will look forward to take the whole family biking in the Park.

Look around and you will find that gold rings or silver rings with many colored gemstones are very popular. The eariliest jewelry designs for rings with multiple gemstones were mainly an effort to combine sparkling diamonds with larger sized gemstones. The diamonds were included to add accent and glitter to the gemstone.

However the current trend is to combine various colored gemstones into one ring. There are a few reasons why jewelry lovers choose to wear such multi colored gemstone rings:

(1) The first and foremost reason is the beauty and attractiveness of rings with multiple gemstones. The color combinations are unlimited and you can let your fancy run wild. Your imagination and the size of your budget are the only known limitations.

(2) Rings with many gem stones also match well with garments of different colors. Put simply, a ring with a deep red garnet and a citrine gemstone would go well with a dress that is red or off white, or yellow etc. This is a major consideration especially in these days of limp and staggering world economies. This is like getting extra mileage for the dollars you spend.

(3) Another concept that is getting to be popular in recent times is about 'family birthstone' rings. In this multi gemstone ring designs, the birthstones of the family members is combined into a ring. So the father, mother and the daughter would all wear rings that consisted of birthstones for three of them. For example, the emerald birthstone for the mother and the ruby birthstone for the father would be combined with the garnet birthstone of the son. It is not necessary for all the family members to wear the same multi gemstone ring design. The theme is to include all birthstones in each of the rings they wear and the ring designs could be different.

(4) For many centuries man has believed in the healing powers of gemstones. Different gemstones are believed to have different powers and a combination of the gemstones is supposed to yield the best results. The Asian Navratan ring or the 9 Gemstone ring from Thailand are classic examples. This is also one reason for wearing multigemstone rings.

(5) Adding significance to wedding and engagement rings. Marriage signifies a life long bond between two people, it is a tying up of destinies and personalities. Each year, numerous couples seek to make special multiple gemstone rings with the birthstones of each other set in the rings. It is expected that this trend will grow in the next few years. It is an attempt to highlight the importance and sanctity of marriage as a commitment rather than, a casual attempt to live together without thought for the future.
