DigiCULT Thematic Issue 6 - Now Available
Resource Discovery Technologies for the Heritage Sector, June 2004

This sixth Thematic Issue concentrates on how resource discovery
technologies can ensure that the high value, authoritative information
of heritage institutions is effectively found, retrieved, and presented
to Internet users.

With a key focus on the user, the Issue looks into user-driven
approaches in interactive resource discovery. Expert opinion suggests
that offering easy to use services and tools able to integrate the
research and learning needs and behaviours of their users may form one
of the heritage institutions answers to the dominance of
general-purpose global search engines.

However, along with ensuring state-of-the-art interactive access and
presentation, the heritage sector will also need to raise the publics
awareness to, and visibility of, its online resources in a more profound
manner. Otherwise it faces the risk that the large investment required
in creating digital collections, rich descriptive metadata, study and
learning material, will fail to realise a high return  in terms of
interest and appreciation, discovery and valuable uses of heritage
resources.

I have several Taylor thermometers scattered around the house, garage, and outside. 
There's a Radio Shack I/O remote with the O (utdoor) thermometer on the inside of a 
post on a large deck. When 4 pm rolls around, the temperature it measures it sees is 
probably 8 degrees too high. I have a Taylor on the outside wall of a small building. 
  It's in the shade most of the day, but late afternoon gets into the sun. Anyway, 
for outdoor thermometers, what's a good way to get good readings. If I wall mount 
them, Probably some insulation is needed between the therm and the wall, and some 
mask to keep the sun from directly hitting the glass. Suggestions? Is there an ideal 
(scientific) apparatus that takes on all comers outside? That it is housed in some 
special device to measure the temp accurately all the time?

   A Stevenson screen is what the met man uses for his instruments, set 
about 2 meters high.
  This URL is a reasonable representation of such a screen: a louvered box, 
painted white
which will not allow direct sunlight when the louvered door is open.

Hello, everyone!
I have two questions:

#1:  Does anyone know of a source for getting Fruit Bats?

#2:  Does anyone know of a good way to make - or better yet fake a 
"rainforest-style" cabin (particularly the palm-frond thatch roof - without 
using palm fronds)

This all relates to a temporary exhibit we're building on the rainforest. 
 We're getting all of the permits for the critters we desire, but we don't 
have a definite source for obtaining fruit bats.  Ideally we would borrow 
the fruit bats January - May, although we might be willing to purchase them 
depending on the price - particularly if we could sell them back to the 
originators at some percent (so we would essentially rent them).

Thank you for all of your help.

-William

I love the topics that pop up on this list.
I would suggest you contact the AZA
about fruit bats. You may find a sister
institution that has contacts that might make
their procurement easier. The Bronx Zoo might
be a good place to contact if you haven't

I would suggest you contact the AZA=20

Hello all

I don't know about fruit bats elsewhere, but in Australia they are
responsible for spreading  a lassavirus by biting, so that may be a danger
if they're around people. As well they have fairly disgusting habits and
shit everywhere. However I know there's somebody around who has produced
models of them for the interpretive centres out at Kakadu and elsewhere. If
you wanted, I could follow this aspect up with a couple of phone calls.

Michael Michie

A recent article in Nature, I think, suggested that the Flying
Fox-lassavirus connection was really through a transgenic porcine vector.
The bats, immune to the virus, roosted in trees above a pig pen, their
excrement contaminated the pigs,  not immune, which then developed full
blown lassavirus. Of course, from pigs to humans was a quick and deadly
step. The article also suggested that while the bats come fully infected
with lassavirus as a matter of course, it is not of a variety that can go
directly to humans. Small comfort to an exhibit designer, one might guess.

Group,

I appologize for leaving the "request read receipt " switched on. I hate it
when others on a list do that to me. (See "Tools>Request Read Receipt" in
Outlook, look for the checkmark)

Aare Baumer,

I contacted you a few months back to inquire about sound exhibits.  I was 
wondering if you could tell me a bit more about the pitch & delay exhibit 
and the "Waterfall" sound-analyzing computer exhibit you have there. 
 Particularly I'm wondering how you did the pitch & delay exhibit - did you 
utilize a computer, an older studio editing machine, or did you create your 
own electronic board that did it from scratch using solid state voice 
recorder chips?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me on this!

-William

Does anyone out there know of a good source for piezoceramic transducers 
(discs, for repairing and building ultrasonic misters?).  

Thanks,

I'm pondering how to demonstrate the process of gases glowing upon being
excited with electrons (or other particles). I know that the classic
demonstration uses various gases in glass tubes with a high-voltage
source of electricity. I need to come up with something that could be
manipulated by a museum visitor his or herself (so it has to be safe).
Any ideas or leads?

This is all leading towards some demonstrations about upper-atmosphere
aurora activity. Most likely these will be demonstrations, not stand-
alone exhibits.

Then I want to be able to modify the effect with the interaction of a
magnet, but I expect this is asking too much...

thanks.

Yes!   The secret keyword you need is "mist maker."   This site lists the
replacement transducers for $5 each, $3.40ea for kit of 5

Flouroscent bulbs, neon signs, and NE-2 pilot lights all will light up
when exposed to an intense AC electric field such as that produced by a
Tesla coil like these:

  http://www.powerlabs.org/flybackdriver.htm
  http://tacashi.tripod.com/elctrncs/ssstc/ssstc.htm
  http://personal.inet.fi/atk/dncmrc/pglobe.htm
  http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Lab/5322/hv2.html

If you connect a small Tesla coil to a metal plate, cover the plate in
plexiglas for safety, then put NE-2 bulbs against it, they light up.  Or
even put a bunch of NE-2 bulbs in a plastic paddle with a security cable
to prevent theft.

This is much harder since it usually requires DC.   The typical classroom
demo uses the expensive Teltron e-beam tube:

However, I noticed that if you put a rare-earth supermagnet into an orange
glowing neon "plasma mug",  the plasma filaments will rotate rapidly.
Evidently there is some direct current going on inside the glass capsule.

  http://www.thinkgeek.com/cubegoodies/mugs/60c3/
  http://www.google.com/search?q=%22plasma+mug%22

Now that I mention it, the "electronic coaster" that comes with the plasma
mug is itself a Tesla coil, and will illuminate any NE-2 bulbs or neon
sign tubes held on top.

We manufacture these exhibits for science museum applications.  In this way
one doesn't have to re-invent the wheel.

Our units interact in a powerful and vivid manner to produce plasma-twisting
with the electron beam.

We furnish complete presentation scripts with our units and in many cases go
to the museum site to help with setup and initial training of museum
demonstrators so they are doing the demo in a safe manner.

A great resource and a lot of fun is Tim Hunkin's 1980s British TV series 
the Secret life of the Machine.
That 2 guys could do a TV show from their "shed" is amazing. The things 
they make are fodder for many a museum exhibit.

Hello all,  I enjoyed the tip about the Secret Life of Machines 
website and goodies.

In my summer reading I picked up David Macaulay's MOSQUE, another of 
his architecture books loosely based on a real 13th century 
architect.  Since the siting of the building is so important, so that 
worshippers face Mecca, how did people know which way Mecca was? 
They certainly knew more astronomy that I do!  Would they have had 
accurate enough maps at that time?  How does that work?

I also found a book about Macaulay's making of the first book 
Cathedral.  It celebrated the 25th anniversary of the first book and 
tells a fascinating story.  His original idea was to make a book of 
gargoyles, but his editor thought it should be a little broader!  Has 
many of his original drawings and redesigned pages with interesting 
vantage points.

Stay busy!  Jane

An intuitive approach to find the bearing to a distant Earthly location
uses a Globe: the bigger the better.
If the present and distant locations are located on the sphere, a
smooth line stretched between them is shortest when it describes a Great 
Circle.

A Great Circle has the property of using continuously varying compass bearings
unless it lies on a meridian or two equatorial positions.
  It is difficult, actually impossible, to faithfully represent all 
features of a
  globe on a flat chart. Still, either distances, sizes or bearings can be
presented - and so to find an initial heading of the kind needed to point 
to Mecca
a particular {"Gnomonic") map presentation is needed - or in the Arab 
tradition,
  an algorithm is used to find the initial bearing to al-Qiblah.
Here's a modern recipe. The dashes represent the 'divided by' symbol.

Bearing=

atan(sin(Long(JSC)-Long(aQ))
---------------------------------------------------------
(sin(Lat(JSC))*cos(Long(JSC)-Long(aQ))-tan(Lat(aQ))*cos(Lat(JSC))))

Where JSC means the latitude and longitude where Jane's
prospective mosque is to located.
aQ is the Latitude and Longitude of Mecca
sin, cos, tan are the customary transcendental ratios of the
sides of a plane triangle
atan is arctan or inverse tangent

All angles are specified in radians - where a radian is
360/(2*pi) degrees or about 57 deg.

Al-gorithm, now there's a good Islamic technology word.

Al-gebra, al-cohol, al-kali, al-manac, al-chemy. All pre-dating what we 
Westerners like to think of as the Renaissance.

Hi, Ian:

Thanks for "awakening my curiousity" about the etymology of algorithm
(though what word derivation has to do with insects is beyond
me)...anyway...

ALGORITHM
This word ... enshrines the name of a very early Arab mathematician -
Abu Ja'far Mohammed ibn-Musa al Khwarizmi who lived from 780 to 850. He
was literally the "man from Khwarizm" and his name was used to describe
the Arabic 10-based number system, going from "al-khwarizmi" to
"algorismus" in Latin and eventually "algorithm" in late 17th century
English by association with Greek "arithmos" number (hence
"arithmetic").

I have an evolving theory that I am outsourcing functions of my brain to
google.  I no longer have to remember things like this as long as I have
a high speed connection.

Its Monday morning...

Hello Everyone!

Is there anyone out there who has realized a sucessful design for an outdoor 
solar energy interactive exhibit?  

WonderLab, located in Bloomington, Indiana, is hoping to install such an 
exhibit in our garden.  We are committed to highly interactive exhibits.  Our 
goal for the solar interactive is to give visitors the ability to adjust one or 
all of the following: aperature or other mechanical means of blocking light to 
the panel, tilt of panel, rotational orientation of panel.  We want the power 
collected from the panel to drive a device (fountain? meter? motor? etc...) 
with enough sensitivity that people can really see the effects of the changes 
they are making to the panel.

Any and all thoughts on this are most welcome!


Thanks,

Don Marvel
Exhibits Director
WonderLab Museum of Science, Health and Technology

I have an Airguide altimeter that is not electronic. I don't know where the booklet 
is on how to set it. It's apparent that it is not working. The needle never moves 
despite elevation changes. There is a screw slot it the back that allows one to 
adjust it. What's up with this device? How do I get it working again? I set it to my 
elevation years ago, and that's where it stays. The analog dial goes from 0 to 16K feet.

Why not call Airguide?  It's always best to get the data from the direct
mfgr.

A coarse altimeter that does not reflect the change in elevation when 
carried up a mountain
is bust. The adjustment that sets the current elevation to its correct 
value has evidently
  not broken.
It is an aneroid capsule that provides the motivation to the needle, 
through clockwork.
The capsule extends at reduced atmospheric pressure, and vice versa.

Try some WD-40. Really. If it doesn't work after
that, chuck it and get a GPS.

Really, I'm not kidding about the WD-40.
Or about chucking the unit. I've had enough
experiences with various analogue devices,
both on the eastern seaboard and in Hawaii,
to have seen (and sometimes solved)
the nefarious problems of oxidation.
I've always liked to know how high I am...

I tried for about 30 minutes via Google to find any listing for them. I bought the 
unit about 3 years ago. Maybe they are gone or have a new name.

I've used it surprisingly little since I bought it 3 years ago. In fact, it's spent a 
lot of time in a drawer inside the house. I balked at the idea of attaching it to my 
dashboard with the adhesive backing provided. I believe it cost about $35.00. I sure 
didn't get my money's use out of it.

It measures about 3 by 3" and has two screws on the back that hold the assembly 
together. A ring around the front turns to adjust the altitude scale. The last inch 
setting for my altitude was 27". Maybe I can squirt the WD-40 in the front where the 
axle for the dial is located. If this doesn't work, it looks like I may get to open 
it up and see how it works.

If one does a Google search on "Airguide altimeter", a hit is made on Breckenridge as 
a replacement for it. An image is give of a look-a-like for the Airguide.

The rule of thumb near sea level is 1 inch Hg per thousand feet.
A standard day has a sea level pressure of 29.92 ins Hg and
temp 60 degF  (1013mB, 15degC)  so a setting for elevation
  of 27 inches, through 27.99 inches would
represent an elevation of about 2900 ft to 1900 ft.

Nevada City is at 2500 ft, and Wayne may be in the foothills,
so this "Kohlmann" setting is in the ball park.
Could be, the clockwork has frozen up.

I got quite a few unhappy responses when I suggested using
WD40 in a similar context on an instrument list, a while ago.
  It can leave a deposit. A very light oil would perhaps be better.
  Brass on steel is often unlubricated in older clock movements.

Hello all,

We currently have a low tech approach to measuring your pulse ( a large
clock with a second hand and instructions on how to take your pulse for
ten seconds and multiply it by six). We are looking for a robust version
of an automatic pulse monitor that has proven successful in an
exhibition context.

Thanks,

Kate Phillips

Just about all the exercise machines with which I dabble at the local gym., 
have electrodes
on the handles, and after a few seconds latency, they display heart rate, 
along with
watts/calories, distance/cycles etc.
This seems like the robust approach you need.
The machines are bomb-proof.

So much for Airguide. I found the booklet. They are Airguide Instrument Co. of 
Chicago, IL, and no longer seem to exist. There is nothing in the booklet that will 
help. I found an item via Google that suggests they may have moved to Mexico as 
something to do with NAFTA. When I unscrew the back plate to get inside, I cannot 
separate it from the dial on the front. The pointer blocks the removal as the inchy 
scale comes up the axis and hits the pointer. Rotating the altitude dial does nothing 
to get inside. Cute. Wastebasket time. For $35 that I paid for it, you would think 
they would have included a wastebasket. :-)

Incidentally, I bought it at a local RV store 3 yrs ago that also has gone out of 
business.

Actually I think the typical blood pressure cuff machines you find in the 
drug-store are the best ones for pulse measurement.  The hand pulse meters 
Brian suggests come in second place IMHO.

Just about all the exercise machines with which I dabble at the local gym., 
have electrodes
on the handles, and after a few seconds latency, they display heart rate,
along with
watts/calories, distance/cycles etc.
This seems like the robust approach you need.
The machines are bomb-proof.

Swimming interactive

I'm looking for inspiration for an interactive about swimming which does
not involve people getting into the water and yet is not purely
multimedia/screen based. Any suggestions welcome!

Thanks Kate

Welcome to the DigiCULT Online Consultation Forum:
Towards a Cultural Heritage RTD Roadmap.


Dear Expert

The DigiCULT project is currently preparing a roadmap on the challenges
and possible achievements in research and technological development
(RTD) over the next 10 to 15 years that are likely to lead to advanced
applications for the cultural heritage sector.

The roadmap is a navigation tool that will provide essential
understanding and direction in the strategic planning of research
agenda, guiding investment in and funding of innovative RTD.

We invite you to participate in this roadmapping exercise, helping
DigiCULT to define and qualify the challenges and approaches ahead. The
roadmap will be published in Thematic Issue 7 that will be available in
December 2004.

Starting from the current IST programme's vision of "anywhere, anytime,
natural and enjoyable access to IST services for all" the roadmap
concentrates on the following five themes:

       * Theme 1: Intelligent & Contextual [MEANING]
       * Theme 2: Natural & Enjoyable Interaction [EXPERIENCES]
       * Theme 3: Create / Re-create [3D/AR/VR]
       * Theme 4: Large Scale & Distributed [AUTOMATION]
       * Theme 5: Persistent & Perpetual Access [PRESERVATION]

My suggestion would involve a selection of battery-powered swimming toys, 
human swimmers, ducks, fishes etc. Remove the batteries from each of them 
and connect thin wires from each to an array of hands-on potentiometer 
knobs. Display the toys, floating in clean water, under transparent plastic 
domes and let people control them. In the background display graceful 
wildlife footage of real animals swimming, with suitably thought-provoking 
captions. For example: "Do fishes REALLY swim by wagging their tails?..."

While you're at it you might want to check out
Twiddlefish. They are great interactive low-cost
fish-shaped devices that swim. Kids love them.
I got some at the Boston Museum of Science a few
years ago. They really swim.

Does anybody know of a good resource for obtaining anti-venoms?  
Particularly we are looking for the Gaboon Viper anti-venom (don't worry I haven't just been bitten! ;)
We're in need of it prior to bringing in a Gaboon Viper, and the sources we used to have for it have dried up.

Has anyone out there ever tried to "industrialize" a Wimshurst machine and 
put it out on the floor (with appropriate protection)?

I've seen a Van-DeGraaf on the floor for standard use twice - once 
automated (Discovery Center) and once hand-cranked (Museum of Science).

I was thinking that hand-cranking a Wimshurst Machine would be much more 
effective for generating sparks and could work well into a set of exhibits 
on creating electricity.

We have had a large unit on our exhibit floor for several years. It 
stands about 2m high and is motor driven. A motor drives each of the 
counter rotating disks. There was never any intention to provide access 
to the output. It is enclosed in a solid case of  (it would be unsafe 
without it of course) but even so, the spark can be heard clearly even 
from adjoining galleries. It is push button operated and runs for around 
a minute.

Our VDG is around 2.5m tall and is one of our most popular exhibits. 
Participating visitors stand next to it within a fenced area and are 
always amused to see their hair stand on end. It is only operated by 
staff and if a visitor removes their hand it is stopped immediately by 
the operator. When it was first installed it would discharge to objects 
several meters away and it has been detuned for safety reasons. A long 
queue is common.

Unfortunately we are in a high humidity area and there are many days in 
summer when neither device works.

Hi folks--

I"m working with a group of three high school students in a senior-level
pre-engineering course.  They're great kids who want to build an interactive
exhibit as their course project.  As part of their coursework, they are to
document the need for their engineering project, which has a slightly different
context in our exhibit-world of course.

If you've got a minute, could you please fill out the short questionnaire below.

They want to design, prototype, and build some kind of interactive exhibit based
on binary as the basis for digital electronics;  but they want the binary part of
the exhibit to DO something.  Their proposal is to build three series of switches
to do the binary part (0-15), each connected to a digital-analog converter, to
control the intensity of three different light sources in red, green, and blue
that would then be mixed together onto a white surface. .

Thanks for your help-- these kids will appreciate any responses!!  They've also
surveyed their peers to find out how many know anything about binary (very few)
and are coming to the Sciencenter this weekend to talk with kids.

New Digital electronics Exhibit Survey
This survey is from a high school class interested in developing an interactive
display for digital electronics. Please respond to the following questions:

1) Do you have displays that have anything to do with digital electronics?
Yes / no

2) Do you think there may be a demand for these types of displays?
Yes / no

3) Does your science center have displays that focus on the properties of visual
light or color?
Yes / no

4) Do you think that there may be a demand for these types of displays?
Yes / no

5) Do you think that there may be a demand for displays that combine aspects of
digital electronics and light or visual displays of color?
Yes / no

6) Would you think that a display demonstrating the use of digital electronics in
relation to color and light projection would be beneficial to one or more science
centers nationwide?
Yes / no

7) Do you feel that people would benefit from learning about digital electronics
through an interactive display with an emphasis on the visual light and/or the
color spectrum?
Yes / no

8) How much space do you think your science center would be willing to allot for
such an exhibit?
Yes / no

9) Please add any comments, concerns, or ideas you may have pertaining to the
above questions.


Sincerely,
Pete Eschenbrenner  Engineering Design and Development  Mr. Peters  Ithaca
High School

Interesting project
 
We once built the world's slowest calculator, a water operated  binary 
calculator which performed basic binary computations with water channeled  through 
precisely sculpted glass vessels. Will fill out your questionnaire over  the 
weekend

I would reccomend a project from the Forest Mims Engineers Notebook series.
They are available at most Radio Shack stores.

Long ago, I went looking for Prof Walcott.
He was tracking pigeons by airplane.
He observed they diverted near Iron Mountain.
A geomagnetic sense was one of the avian sense
modalities being hunted at the time.

I walked in on him on Broadway -
he was helping with CTW or Sesame Street.
He suggested I go talk to a student of his
at Stoney Brook..

I wonder if IR Inc is an offspring of CTW?

You expected someone to say this, so it might as well be me:
Is there a particular science-oriented interest in showing
this particular lethal animal?

Demonstrating an IR sensitivity perhaps?

William,

Here at PV Scientific Instruments, we have built a variety of 
Wimshurst static electrical generators for museums, including 
visitor-operated permanent installations, docent-operated exhibits, 
and travelling exhibits. They make spectacular displays, and very 
educational ones too. With the right ancillary experimental gear, a 
number of exciting classical  experiments can easily be demonstrated.

You can check our on-line catalog for some of our standard offerings, 
and we also do a lot of custom work to fit the needs of various 
museum exhibits.

	We have just installed a new exhibition and came across a 
curious problem. We have two interactive computer exhibits running on 
Mac G 5's and controlled by new style Happ track balls. On restart 
the track ball freezes and only works if we unplug it from the USB 
port and re plug it in to the USB port. A major nuisance. However 
Bradley Schuchardt of DC LLC discovered a work around. Plug the track 
ball into a Mac key board and plug the keyboard into the G 5 USB 
port. When rebooting the track ball works just fine.

Cheers,

Martin

Dear
Expert


FINAL REMINDER for those who wish to participate in the DigiCULT Online
Consultation Forum  Towards an RTD Roadmap for the Cultural Heritage
Sector.

**Deadline for input is Wednesday 10 November 2004.

We strongly encourage commentators to take advantage of this important
opportunity to contribute to a roadmap that will focus on the necessary
next steps in the planning of RTD for the digital heritage space.

Click here to start the online forum:
http://www.digicult.info/pages/drr_index.php

Please feel free to circulate this message amongst your colleagues as
we have a strong interest in obtaining reactions to the discussion
themes from as wide a community as possible.

In addition, we welcome any material you consider relevant for the
shaping of the Roadmap such as scenarios, case studies, articles/papers
you have authored.

DigiCULT will distribute the Roadmap extensively across the cultural
heritage sector, RTD community, and appropriate governmental and funding
bodies in Europe and beyond.

Thank you to all those who have already provided advice, opinion and
recommendations in the online consultation forum.

If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours Sincerely

You might want to give the sharware product "USB Overdrive" a try. 
It has lots of tweaks for various input devices (we use it to speed 
up old Happ trackballs on old iMacs running OS 8.5; without it, the 
mouse pointer moves excruciatingly slowly).  Not sure if it would 
solve this particular problem, but it's shareware, so it's free to 
try out!

Good luck,

Don's original message was posted 10-13.  I'm just beginning to catch up on
listserve messages... sigh...

Yes, we have a nice 12volt display in our outdoor Science Park;  the solar cell
housing faces south at the appropriate ~45degree tilt, and visitors can change the
tilt in the E-W direction and see how it affects the output.  The output is
connected to a display with a 12volt car radio, two small fans, and a small motor
with a spiral image on its axis so you can see how fast it is moving;  visitors can
switch on any 1-3 of these itmes.

Solar cells were from Digital Solar Technology in Boulder, Colorado. "Arco solar
module Model M25," donated to us in 1999;  I don't have any more information than
that from the volunteer who took on this project.

http://www.digitalsolar.com/

I"ll send Don a digital photo separately;  happy to do the same for anyone else
interested.

Our biggest problem is that Ithaca, NY is (truly) about as cloudy as Seattle... but
they do work in summer even on cloudy days.. winter is more problematic of
course...

Loupe?  The Peak brand loupes aren't bad for the price -- e.g.
http://www.pgiinc.com/10xpelo1.html

How about a hand lens? I used to buy their cheapie Coddingtons for my
taxonomy students, and they were quite useable:
http://www.forestry-suppliers.com/product_pages/view_catalog_page.asp?id=3194
but I prefer the hastings triplets for myself -- they've got a B&L 
hastings, but I haven't tried it:

We've bought a number of Carson loupes-- google search will turn up a number of sources,
as you can't buy them directly from Carson.

We got ours from a website www.magnifierplace.com and the invoice actually was from
"Practical Solutions" in Tonawanda, NY.

10X loupe:  $6.95
7X loupe:  $8.95
5X oversize loupe, maybe 3-4" across, is $10.95

The top black plastic part comes unscrewed from the clear plastic base, which is great if
you need to tether them-- we screwed them onto plexi disks (with some grinding off of the
black plastic) that we then tethered to the Magnification Tables in our traveling
exhibition "It's a NanoWorld" as our loupes went to Innoventions at Epcot Center for 6
months- where they informed us anything not tethered would walk away!

Thanks. I forgot how expensive the B&L one were. Close to $40. It's sometimes hard 
for me to believe I could have misplaced mine, but most likely I did. I recall that 
for months I couldn't find it, and then one day it popped up. I then put it in a 
place where I would have no trouble finding it. Ha! It even has a laynard on it, but 
apparently doesn't make it big enough for me to see. I'll find it yet, but I could 
use a backup, probably from the source you mention.

This is directed to those of you who have outdoor science parks at your
museums.
What kind of safety rules do you have posted in your park? It has been
called to our attention that we should post a list of safety guidelines. We
currently have a sign that alerts visitors that areas of the park are
slippery when wet, and that's it. I think we do want to remind adults to
supervise their children, but I would like to avoid having a long list of
rules. 

Any suggestions or advice will be appreciated.

Your best option is to have everyone purchasing tickets sign a brief
disclaimer form.

Posting signs with a long list of rules offers almost zero legal protection.
All they have to do is say they didn't see the sign or didn't read it, and
you have legal problems in the event of any type of accident.

As they say, "been there, done that".  Experience speaks here.

I would like to inform you about the new family of interactive multimedia
solutions for public spaces I have developed, thought particularly for
museums, exhibitions and showrooms.

People in such spaces can access digital media content in a simple and
intuitive way, through gestures (e.g. pointing at, walking, touching).

These solutions are depicted with images, descriptions and movies, on this
website:

http://www.naturalinteraction.org

In case you are interested in more information just drop me a line, I will
reply promptly.

Thanks for your attention.

Best Regards,

Eng. Alessandro Valli, PhD

DigiCULT Thematic Issue 7 - Now Available
The Future Digital Heritage Space. An Expedition Report,
December 2004

This report summarises the results of an expedition into the possible
future of digital heritage in the next 10-15 years.

It is based on contributions from researchers, heritage experts and
professionals to a DigiCULT online forum as well as the project's
ongoing research.

The report is intended as a navigation tool for boards and directors of
heritage organisations and research centres, IT project managers, and
curators of digital collections, virtual exhibitions and environments.
It cautions that the next waves of innovative ICT systems and
applications may significantly shape and re-shape the digital landscape
in which heritage organisations reside. For many organisations this
could result in becoming 'blind spots' in an emerging ambient
intelligence environment. As the places and roles of digital heritage in
this environment need to be discussed and prepared, the report also
gives recommendations which may be useful for ensuring the creation of a
thriving and inclusive future digital heritage space.

DigiCULT Thematic Issue 7 - Now Available
The Future Digital Heritage Space. An Expedition Report,
December 2004

This report summarises the results of an expedition into the possible
future of digital heritage in the next 10-15 years.

It is based on contributions from researchers, heritage experts and
professionals to a DigiCULT online forum as well as the project's
ongoing research.

The report is intended as a navigation tool for boards and directors of
heritage organisations and research centres, IT project managers, and
curators of digital collections, virtual exhibitions and environments.
It cautions that the next waves of innovative ICT systems and
applications may significantly shape and re-shape the digital landscape
in which heritage organisations reside. For many organisations this
could result in becoming 'blind spots' in an emerging ambient
intelligence environment. As the places and roles of digital heritage in
this environment need to be discussed and prepared, the report also
gives recommendations which may be useful for ensuring the creation of a
thriving and inclusive future digital heritage space.

Hello, all,

I'm interested in finding out what people are using nowadays for 
on-floor presentation of video material. I'd particularly like to know 
if anyone knows of a solid-state MPEG-2 player that uses removable 
_USB_ flash ROM for storage.

For those who want to stick around for the long-winded stuff, I'll 
describe some recent things we've used here, in historical order, with 
their advantages and disadvantages. Nothing has proven to be 100% good.

- Alcorn/McBride Digital Video Machine. Plays MPEG-2 video from a 
removable hard drive. Advantages are fast access time and the ability 
to control the playback of clips via contact closures or a serial port. 
Disadvantages are limited hard drive size (maybe they've fixed this), 
high cost, the fact that the video and audio have to be multiplexed 
into a single (.mpg file, not DVD-style) stream, and no fast way to 
load files to the hard drive from a Macintosh, on which I do all my 
editing, compressing, etc. (I use the Mac because I like it and because 
getting a PC to replace it and all the video editing and compressing 
software would be very, very expensive.)

- DVD player. Advantages are the standard, common video format, low 
cost (cheap consumer-grade machines work fine if you're just looping a 
video; you can wear out five or six of them in a row for the cost of 
one industrial-grade machine), and the relative ease of creating DVDs 
on a computer. Disadvantages are slow access time, non-durability of 
the media (which wears out and get scratched up, particularly in 
traveling exhibits), and rather higher expense if you need a machine 
that can be controlled by contact closures or serial commands.

- MedeaWiz MPEG-2 player (model DV-66). Plays video files from a 
removable compact flash ROM card. Advantages are fast access time, no 
moving parts, and low cost compared to hard-drive machines and 
industrial-grade DVD players. Disadvantages are that getting the data 
onto the compact flash card requires a separate reader/writer, the card 
uses a non-Mac-compatible format, and once again the video and audio 
have to be multiplexed into a single stream. I think this machine would 
be the ideal solution if only it used JumpDrive-style USB flash ROM, 
which is common, inexpensive, and can be read and written to from any 
computer with a USB port.

Any information on other machines that people have run across would be 
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

We are using Atec Edje's for our video. Seems to be OK though they 
have been running only for few weeks. I found this:

I've put together an abridged, illustrated version of Michael Faraday's 
1860 lecture for children at the Royal Institution, 'The Chemical History 
of a Candle'.

It is here http://www.interactives.co.uk/candle.htm

Happy Christmas.

I just knew I'd find my lost loupe one day. Last week I had the interior of my car 
thoroughly cleaned by an auto shop. They bundled *everyting* they found inside into a 
plastic bag before cleaning it: maps, screwdrivers, business cards, coins, ..., and 
of course my loupe! I guess it got buried in some compartment that avoided previous 
attempts to find it.

Well, this weekend the Science Channel broadcast about four hours of the old Mr. 
Wizard shows. I watched a few and found one intriguing. It was about the density of 
liquids. He constructed a tall container with plastic sides in which he poured equal 
amounts of several transparent liquids of various densities to form layers. He then 
dropped different types of small plastic samples into the liquid. They would settle 
out at near their density. Nice demo. How do you make a simple one for a museum that 
has minimum upkeep?

I figure getting a 4 foot 2" diameter tube for starters might be good. Getting the 
various liquids doesn't seem to be too difficult, but how does it operate so that 
anyone can try it without a docent having to remove previously used samples. I 
thought of attaching a piece of metal to the pieces of material dropped into it, then 
using a strong magnet to pull them to the side and then up and out. Of course, the 
metal is going to figure into the density, so what's a solution to this problem?

Simple is good.  My first reaction is each object has its own short 
fishing rod and line.   The rod as an object informs visitors how to 
hold it and what to do.

How about a strainer (basket sort of thing) that 
would be pulled up to the top, scooping all of 
the 'floaters' into it.

Dump the plastic pieces and lower the strainer 
basket back down to the bottom of the tube - 
ready for the next pieces to be dropped in.

Actually, that was my first reaction too, but I felt that even the light weight cord 
might somehow interfer with things; however, I suppose if the samples are heavy 
enough, it might work out. Worth exploring though.

What if all the different density "fish" were all on one line?  If the 
monofilament was flexible enough, each fish would seek it's own level.  
The advantage is the visitors only have to do one action to get a 
result.

Very good. Well, more to think about.

I suspect that another problem you will have to deal with is mixing of the 
layers.   The density columns that I have seen work well short term, but degrade 
quickly, especially if the layers are disturbed by moving things around in 
them.   Think about alcohol floating on oil, which is floating on water.   The 
nonpolar oil will not mix with the polar water or alcohol, but if the water and 
alcohol come in contact, they will mix easily.

Yes, that will need some attention. Perhaps the substances he used might work well.
I've forgotten exactly what they were. In some cases, I believe, it was a mixture of 
sugar and water, and salt and water. But he had some other common household chemical 
(something like alcohol) he used with water. The name escapes me at the moment. I 
video taped the 4-6 hours of show, so at some point I'll look. Perhaps there are some 
good substitutes that will work. I think I've seen some toys that have two somewhat 
viscous colored liquids that pass by on another when shaken, and then return to two 
separate layers afterwards.

For a novel "planetarium" exhibit I'm looking for 
inexpensive unobtrusive image inverters (that give 
180-degree rotation to a significant part of your 
central visual field), that can be worn like eyeglasses.
The optics, I assume, could be those of prism 
binoculars without their lenses but that's overkill 
in weight and expense.  Four small mirrors would 
work in place of the prisms but accurate assembly is 
daunting.  Does anybody make such a viewing device?

Gosh, one of these books on my shelf has a little section about an 
experiment conducted several decades back in which some researchers 
strapped a device onto some poor subjects' heads which flipped their 
field of vision upside down.  The subjects wore the devices for several 
days, trying their best to live life normally (no driving cars I 
presume).  After a few days of bumping into furniture and repeatedly 
missing the cereal bowl, the subjects' brains would actually start to 
compensate.  Some of the subjects reported that they actually started 
to see things right side up again!

Of course, the eye "sees" upside-down (the nature of the convex lens) 
and the brain rights the image.  The researchers wanted to see if the 
need for up to be up and down to be down would trump the ordinary 
neurological righting process.  And it did!

As for the upside-down-seeing device, they were bulky glasses with 
blinders, and they used prisms, not mirrors.  Those poor subjects 
probably reported stiff necks, too, but that's not mentioned in the 
book.

I'm not helping you much--I've never seen such a device commercially 
available--but I'd love to own a pair.  Some sadistic part of me would 
like to wear 'em around for a couple of days, see how it feels.  Woah.

An artist friend, Sarah Fontinel, suggests:
so why couldn' t you make the pieces out of different size magnets to match 
the density of each liquid and then do as you were saying pull them to the side 
and up and out kinda thing?

Sounds to me like she's on a good track. Make the magnets be as small
as possible, attached to significantly larger samples.  I guess that still 
contaminates the purity of the demo by adding a slight bias.  Magnets
would have to be strong enough to pull the heavier things through the
topmost liquid.

An inexpensive atomic clock?
Surely you jest, Mr. Watson. They run several thousand on up,still,
  if I recall.

Perhaps you have in mind the radio synchronized clock movements
which are indeed inexpensive at well under $20.
But these drive analog hands in the usual way.

The carrier for time signal broadcasts is indeed atomically slaved
at several national standards. As a notional example a 200kHz carrier
divided by 2000 would serve your purpose.
If not a commercial item, though it may well be, a pic controller,
  I remind myself, is well adapted to onesy-twosy applications of this kind.

Brian

Yes, I believe they synch by radio and then use a cheap crystal to keep

Without knowing the intended use, consider an old computer with Internet=20
access, linked to NIST servers.
- Set the display size as big as you want.
- A solution should be available for either accuracy to UTC time or just=20
accuracy of a time interval.  Various methods can be used to minimize the ef=
fects=20
of variable Internet delays.
-The cost? You can probably get someone to pay you to take their old compute=
r=20
and monitor!
- It would be an atomic clock- just with a very remote display subsystem. I=20
believe any form of useful display of atomic time would have accuracy issues=
=20
for many reasons. Such as persistence of vision and variable vision processi=
ng=20
on the viewer's side, without any display technology issues.



http://www.boulder.nist.gov/timefreq/service/its.htm
The NIST servers listen for a NTP request on port 123, and respond by sendin=
g=20
a udp/ip data packet in the NTP format. The data packet includes a 64-bit=20
timestamp containing the time in UTC seconds since January 1, 1900 with a=20
resolution of 200 ps.

But that cost may be changing- see the program below:

Depends on your connection.  I am often limited to using a satellite 
connection, my ping times can vary from about 570ms to 700ms.  Dialup gives me better 
latency but slow throughput.

If you have a reasonable Internet connection, add some code to round robin 
poll each of ten different time servers ten times each, discard extremes and 
average the rest, and I think it would be within 1/100 of a second repeatability. 
 This would give you a rather stable calculated delay, but I know of no easy 
way to measure that delay absolute offset.  Perhaps feed a radio time standard 
in as the radiowave delay is easier to approximate.

It's purely for show. I just like the thought of having something like that 
around. Looks reeeeal scientific. :-)
I like your idea, but I can't afford the connection to the internet. I have 
a modem connection to only one computer. I have lots of computers but only 
one gets a modem anywhere close to a lot.

Actually, I've been going a little nutty lately trying to get a reasonable 
[don't ask :-) ] time to one of my Linux boxes. I've concluded that for a 
machine without access to the internet that Chrony is good enough. If I 
want to get really accurate then I think GPS is the answer. I've been 
pondering a Motoroa Oncore (about $20) or a Garmin GPS25 (engine). Right 
now I'm experimenting with Linux's Chrony.

Our museum received a R-J Series 40 microscope some time ago. It's a real 
mystery how we got it. One day it just appeared on our operations managers 
desk with only an identification that shows that it is identified with our 
founding school system. It appears to be new. There was no booklet with it, 
and no one who should know something about it has a clue as to where it 
came from. In any case, can someone direct me to the R-J web site or some 
place on the web that will describe the microscope and give me some clue as 
to what it costs? I'd really like to see some specs and maybe a user's 
manual for it.

What has your experience been regarding water treatment for exhibits?

We have several exhibits that use water and we're exploring treatment
methods.

Our city water is very hard and leaves mineral deposits on surfaces, clogs
nozzles and is an appearance and maintenance headache.

For some situations, like our tornado and bubble exhibits, we purchase
distilled water. The two other larger volume water play areas are plumbed
and use tap water.

We are considering a reverse osmosis system or a water softener.

I would be interested in knowing how other museums deal with hard water.

Thanks.

Reverse osmosis is a good way to go Bruce
 
We ourselves produce an antigravity water fall and Fog Screen, and  have used

The most thorough, and impressive, water treatment system I've ever

an exhibit is at the new water area at the Children's Museum in San 
Jose.

The Director of Exhibits is Tom Lindsay  <tlindsay@cdm.org>

The cheaper method (at least short-term) is deionizing canisters.  I 
believe Reverse Osmosis is better (purer water), but deionizing canisters 
are much less expensive, and have different ratings.  check out Fischer or 
Frey...I believe we get our Deionizers from one of them (Ultrapure version 
if my memory serves).

DigiCULT Thematic Issue 7 - Now Available
The Future Digital Heritage Space. An Expedition Report,
December 2004

This report summarises the results of an expedition into the possible
future of digital heritage in the next 10-15 years.

It is based on contributions from researchers, heritage experts and
professionals to a DigiCULT online forum as well as the project's
ongoing research.

The report is intended as a navigation tool for boards and directors of
heritage organisations and research centres, IT project managers, and
curators of digital collections, virtual exhibitions and environments.
It cautions that the next waves of innovative ICT systems and
applications may significantly shape and re-shape the digital landscape
in which heritage organisations reside. For many organisations this
could result in becoming 'blind spots' in an emerging ambient
intelligence environment. As the places and roles of digital heritage in
this environment need to be discussed and prepared, the report also
gives recommendations which may be useful for ensuring the creation of a
thriving and inclusive future digital heritage space.

I believe it's in the Soc. Am. Science Scientific American magazine

build one with a reasonable effort and modest cost?

Apart from the copper fittings to solder with a propane torch,
  the scope to display the mass spectrogram, the vacuum pump, the one item
  that may be difficult to source any more is the magnetron magnet,
with a particular pole shape.   I am not quite sure that the ubiquitous
  microwave oven magnetron has a magnet of quite the desired shape.
  Still, as the magnetron tube and the MS ion path
have similar needs, I'd hope it would be doable still.

I'd like to use my 35mm Canon SLR (and dSLR) camera to photograph some
specimens. I looked in "Exploring the Microscope", and he recommends
rotatable microscope attachment tube, M-42 extension tubes, dovetail tube
ring, microscope adapter (with rotation), and camera T-ring adapter. This
all sounds like it should do the trick, but, since I'm a novice the cost
sounds formidable. Is there a less costly way to do this? I have a 40x R-J
specimen mscope, and access to a stereo zoom scope. Possibly to a Leica
single tube scope. The R-J scope has the eyepieces glued in place. It has
the advantage that I have continuous use of it. It's probably the place for
me to start.

Then there's the MS toy scope for Win, which may or may not be available
now. Last I heard it was selling for about $30.

If you think about it, the two jobs those expensive adapters do are: 
supporting the camera, and shielding the optical path from external light.

You can do projection photography fairly cheaply with a temporary setup:
Remove the lens from your SLR and suspend it above the microscope 
eyepiece using whatever you have on hand: lab clamps, a tripod or 
whatever. Then darken the room, and shield the camera from any direct 
light coming from the scope's light source.

You will be able to experiment with this technique for virtually no 
money outlay.

This is true, but I have a couple of concerns. One is that the camera 
interior will be entirely open and allow dust into it. The other is 
suspending the camera above the microscope eyepiece. Holding the camera in 
place could be a problem. However, a little experimentation might prove 
fruitful.

I'm looking for some simple motion detection software that will allow me to 
catch nature in action with my Supercircuits B/W PC23C video camera. We 
have enough wild animals around here to make this interesting.

I've scoured the web sith Google and pulled down several hopefuls, but they 
just don't cut it so far. Here's a short list:

Hawkvideo: registering the current trial version seems a bit tedious. I 
tried an earlier version last year, and got nowhere with it trying to use 
the pc23c. $50 I think.

Watcher: Seems promising, but haven't quite figured out how to schedule it. 
$40. At least I can detect motion and it works the pc23c.

i-Cathcer: A bit expensive at $80. They seem to want to bundle it with 
their cameras.

This seemed like an interesting avenue to explore. Though I suspect that 
the method
has its commercial uses, Wayne's nature capture is more inviting.

I noticed that one of his picks, the Watcher, has a free download offering, 
and this
  easily hooked to my web cam sitting on the display, and then captured motion
  without much fussing onto .dgw files. The freebee crippling which instituted
  a  30 minute limit, and a red screen legend were not overwhelming.

So I had confirmed Wayne's first step.
But motion sequences of birds and squirrels would be more appetizing by far
than mug-shots,  so I wondered, how do I stretch this cam on its USB cable
  out the window and into the yard?

A wireless link would be one way, but that would cost some money.
I expect the cam cable could be extended - but I am unsure how far a
  USB line can drive. Any ideas?

Actually, I have two or three tasks. Another one is to catch someone who 
has been stealing our neighbor's newspapers. We live in a rural area and I 
have a view of our neighborhood mailbox, which is about 500-700' away. 
Another is to catch meteors. I already have some very good equipment for it 
that covers the entire sky, but looking for sky movement in selected areas 
would be useful.

Yes, Digi-Watcher was pretty easy to get started.
I found the explanation for scheduling the operation of the camera a little 
weird though. It appears that one schdules its activity with the Win (or 
possibly Apple) scheduler. How many people know how to use that? The 
descriptions in general are terse. It does work with a variety of graphics 
cards, and works with my cheap Hauppauge, $50.

With VideoHawk, I finally just pushed ahead as though all was OK, and 
suddenly I was able to use the program. Unlike previous versions, it works 
with my video card. It's a pretty spartan interface. It looks like one has 
to write scripts to use the motion detection. It has maybe 30 or more 
commands. I haven't found any expamples.

I don't know about USB, but I bought a 100' cable from Supercircuits in 
Texas that works with my camera. I think the cable was $30, and includes a 
signal cable, power cable, and 6v power supply. My trick will be to keep 
animals, rabbits in particular, from eating through the cable. So far so 
good with other similar cables I have strung on the ground outside. I just 
haven't been able to bury them because of our almost continuous wet weather 
for almost 5 months.

I got a fail message when I attempted to schedule 2 minutes out.
So I consulted the on-line help. It warned me like this:

remember to set Watcher's <settings_general.htm#AUTO_START>auto start 
options before the scheduling,
  so that Watcher can automatically start Recording, Monitoring,
  Listening or Broadcasting upon it is started by the scheduler .

So from the top left anonymous button,  in the settings/general/autostart,
  I selected an autostart,scheduled 2 minutes ahead again.
Turned the watcher OFF and waited.
It seemed to work for me at this point.

Yes, I was trying to schedule just a few minutes out too. I don't see the 
help you are refering to below. For example, I go to on-line help and see 
help on Schedule Watcher. On the right is a list like Part 1, ..., 
-Scheduling. I clicked scheduling, and got to a single page with a 
pull-sideways menu. Oh, I suspect you are referring to the underlined auto 
start option text. Clicking on it gives me a page with the auto-start 
dialog showing two boxes checked.

I find the documentation lacking. For example, they assume the reader knows 
what the Win scheduler is. I've never used it. I found it odd that they 
(Win) don't give a start and stop time. Instead it's start time and then on 
a completely different tab, a place to enter the duration (which isn't 
called duration). They (Watcher) has what I call circular definitions. 
Auto-start is, well, auto-start. My guess is that the product is made 
outside the US. The sky is blue because it's blue. I think I  saw the web 
page start to come up in Chinese. Somehow software documentation has gotten 
to the point where the produces think it's all self-explanatory.

Nevertheless, it does work, and looks like what I need. I'm still looking 
at Hawkeye. They spend a good bit of text on their commands but I haven't 
found any examples. In fairness, I've only spent about 15 minutes on their 
product.

More on setting Watcher...

I forgot to mention: I had to check which user account I wanted the program
  to be scheduled in.
I found we had not put a password on the user = owner, so I did.

I think the scheduling idea is this:
the scheduler can start an executable at a given time, but then the .exe
can run  to completion in its own sweet time - so the duration setting
  elsewhere is to limit the executable, rather than to get a scheduler to
  execute a kill  command or some such.

I think....

I also took more careful note of setting the thing up to come alive and
either record, or check for movement.

This was the pathway:

Anonymous button top left of watcher window
Settings
General Settings
Autostart
then... either
Autostart recording when watcher autostarts
or
Autostart monitoring when watcher autostarts

Apply All
Close

After setting the scheduler out a couple of minutes,
and waiting, I had to
search for the file, cos I didn't see it in the log window.

I found that there is a default directory for autostart files namely
c:\Program Files
\Digi-watcher.com   (!)
\Watcher 2.22
\Recorded
\20050220231304.dgw    This is the datestamped file name
for feb 20 2005, 23:13.04

And you can change the directory path used for the log files window.

Regards

Brian

I would think the exe would just keep running and creating files as motion 
is detected, and the Win scheduler would finally say time's up, you've 
exceeded the duration, so stop. Well, I'll try this a little later. I have 
to run back and forth buildings, and we continue to have our California rain.

My impression is that monitoring cannot be coupled with watcher detection.
 From the help file:
Note - Watcher can do the following tasks simultaneously: monitoring and 
broadcasting, or monitoring and listening, or recording and broadcasting. 
All these operations can be auto-started when Watcher is auto-started by 
Scheduler, or NT service or Windows.

I believe recording just means record everyting regardless of motion, while 
monitor means only record when motion is detected. Certainly the 
documentation is not clear on this point. I just looked at it, and I cannot 
see the difference. Just different words to say the same thing. They seem 
to have trouble saying two plus three is five. They would respond it is 
three plus two. However, as I mentioned, the program seems to work. It's $40.

I'll be on the lookout for that default item. I noticed something odd like 
that playing around with scheduler.

Off in the land of Hawkvideo, they confirmed that they do not have any 
example scripts, but are willing to provide some in a few days. This one is 
$50. It's beginning to remind me more and more of DOS.

I came across another one some weeks ago that might have some appeal, 
astrosnap. It's really meant for astronomy webcams, but has motion 
detection. Or so it says. I tried it and my camera wouldn't work with it. I 
wrote the author, and he said he's making a change that should help. My 
general impression of the overall program is that it has way too many 
features. It looks like someone pasted 100 functions on a bulletin board. I 
guess it's all what one is used to.

A recent NASA out reach bulletin suggested that it might be easy and 
inexpensive to make lenticular images. After a few exchanges with NASA, I'm 
beginning to think this is not true. Has anyone tried it? Lenticular 
material is thin transparent sheets with groves in it. An image is placed 
behind the sheet, and, when viewed from the front, the object seems to move 
when you move your view.

The problem isn't so much the lenticular overlay as the image -- it has to consist of several images broken into thin vertical strips less than the width of the grooves and registered with each other so when you move you see different images magnified by the lenses. Creating that image is probably the tricky part. I don't know if, for example, PhotoShop could do it. NASA may have the software to automatically merge a series of images. The other consideration is that each image has to be in color, too. Printing such a combination would require VERY tight register.

A recent NASA out reach bulletin suggested that it might be easy and 
inexpensive to make lenticular images. After a few exchanges with NASA, I'm 
beginning to think this is not true. Has anyone tried it? Lenticular 
material is thin transparent sheets with groves in it. An image is placed 
behind the sheet, and, when viewed from the front, the object seems to move 
when you move your view.

Here's a site with some software <http://www.3dz.co.uk/>. It looks like a 
somewhat expensive propositon, maybe several hundred dollars. The article 
made it sound like someone might be able to easily do this at home at very 
low costs. Oh, well. Sounded good.

Panasonic had some PC-only software a few years ago that would slice 
and piece together your images for you.  I think they sold a special 
printer for the job, too.  I'm not sure if these things are still in 
production--because it doesn't seem like the home lenticulagrapher 
market exploded quite like they may have hoped.
It still seems to me that the interlacing could be done with Photoshop, 
but I haven't tried it.  One first needs a good supply of the lens 
material.

Depthography sells a "starter kit" for only $2000.  Whew.

I know there are a number of companies that will produce lenticular 
images for you, but short runs will probably cost a minor fortune.

Hmmm...

Y'know, on a similar note, I've had this back-burner project for a 
little while now, trying to figure out how to easily make a catoptric 
image using computer software.  A catoptric image is anamorphic unless 
viewed as a reflection on a mirrored cylinder or cone.  A friend has 
promised to look into using 3D modeling software for the project.
Any ideas?

Yes, that takes my breath away. I'm going to have to look more closely at 
the NASA article. Maybe they were just tooting their horn that they could 
cheaply produce such images. There is a place in WI that sells the material.

Don't forget that "cheaply" at NASA is "only" a few hundred million dollars! ;-)

Yes, that takes my breath away. I'm going to have to look more closely at 
the NASA article. Maybe they were just tooting their horn that they could 
cheaply produce such images. There is a place in WI that sells the material.

Any suggestions for field microscopes where one might not have only battery 
power for illumination (or only the Sun)? Maybe 20 to 60x. Some simple 
platform to hold it steady.

Photography might be of interest, but I think for field work one would be 
talking about extension tubes on a camera. It's been a long time since I've 
used them. I have some here, but where is anyone's guess at the moment?

I have used graphic software that offers the cylinder projection - and it
was either a freebee, or certainly cheap...

At last, success! I was able to schedule motion detection, the Monitor facility, 
with Digi-Watcher. I ran into one problem that kept me wondering. I would set up 
the scheduler and when it came to fire up the program, I would get a message 
that another instance of the program was running. the motion detection monitor 
would then fail to start. I finally realized that the instance it was referring 
to was the one I had open at the time. I was waiting to watch the progress via 
Watcher. One cannot do that. I'll likely buy this package rather than Hawkvideo. 
The later is a bit more primitive and $10 more. However, I'll continue to look 
both of them over in the next week to get a better comparison. It's too bad the 
Watcher trial version displays such a large bit of red text over the area it is 
capturing. Putting it an the bottom would have been as effective. Maybe they 
figure someone would edit it out. Another annoyance of the trial version is the 
30 minute use limit. I found myself exceeding that as I tried various schedules.

DigiCULT: Technology Watch Report 3 - Now Available
"Core Technologies for the Cultural and Scientific Heritage Sector",
January 2005

As in previous TWRs, this volume examines six core technologies. Those
covered here underlie a wide range of future applications, and include:
Open Source Software, Natural Language Processing, Information Retrieval
technologies, Location Based Systems (especially GIS and GPS),
Visualisation of Data, and Telepresence, Haptics and Robotics.

This report builds on our earlier two reports: TWR1 (2003) examined
Customer Relationship Management Systems, Digital Asset Management
Systems, Virtual Reality, Human Computer Interface technologies, Smart
Tags and Labels, and Games. TWR2 (2004) examined Application Service
Models, the XML family of technologies, Cultural Agents and Avatars,
Mobile Access technologies, Rights Management and Payment technologies,
and Collaborative Mechanisms and Technologies.

I hereby declare Digi-Watcher and Hawkvideo duds. Watchdog offers some promise 
that it might be useful. I haven't tried the trial version, but will in the next 
several days. It has the following going for it, it won PC Magazine's Editor's 
Award among five packages reviewed in 2002, the download is 11M (unlike the 1/2M 
for the other two programs), and the company that produces it has improved on it 
since 2002.

One (fairly rare) source of zero-cost lenticular plastic panels is old
rear-projection television consoles made by Philips.  The plastic
rear-projection screen was not a frosted screen, but instead was ten or
twenty cylinder lenses per inch.  By using lenses, they could beam the
light at the people standing directly in front of the screen (and the
image of course goes dark if you move too far off center.)

Years ago I bought from American Science Surplus some yellow acrylic
"lenticular diffusers" about a foot across with four or five lenses per
inch density.


And check out the first entry of my toys site:

   http://amasci.com/amateur/toys1.html

Archie McPhee is selling footstools which has vinyl lenticular fabric.





This shower curtain has the same pattern, so it *might* be lenticular:

Well, crude ones aren't difficult.  Back in 1983 while goofing off at my
software engineering job, I made a lenticular image by hand.  The "lens"
was a series of transparent slits in an opaque square (drawn with magic
marker on transparency film), and the "image" was two sliced-up
interleaved views of the letters "3D"... a left view and a right view.
When taped to either side of a piece of 1/8" acrylic and brightly
illuminated, the effect actually worked!  You had to hold your head in
exactly the right position so your left and right eyes would see only the
left and right images.  Being a "pinhole camera" version, it had to be
illuminated extremely brightly in order to barely be seen it at all.  And
if the angle was wrong, the image turned inside-out.


Then in 1989 I finally had a chance to do it right.  I built an
interactive lenticular panel for "3D: a look in depth," the travelling
exhibit from the MOS.  The device had a sliding lenticular panel and two
adjacent images, both images being the characters "3D"  surrounded by a
black square.  As I recall, in one image the "3D" floats in front of the
black square, and in the other it floats down behind it.  The lenticular
panel was built on a linear bearing so it could be moved over either
image, or slid out of the way so the bare images could be viewed directly.
I remember that there were about six or eight cylinder lenses per inch in
the panel we used.

I calculated those images and drew them one pixel at a time by hand using
the Paint program that came with an Amiga I, then printed them out on a
dot matrix printer.  I really wasn't that difficult once I figured it out.
I recall that the dot matrix did not line up to an even multiple of
pixels-per-lens with the lenticular panel, so I shrunk the images slightly
using the zoom on a photocopier.


It shouldn't be impossible to make a crude "stereo" lenticular panel with
color images.  Use msPaint, etc., and hand-edit a left and right stereo
image as follows. In each of the stereo pair, delete every two vertical
columns of pixels while preserving the third, so each column of pixels has
two white columns between.  Drag one image to superimpose it on the other
(with the white color being background/transparent.)  You'll end up with a
composite left-right image where each white pixel column separates the
paired/adjacent left and right image pixel columns.  Then print out the
single image with "zoom" adjusted so the pixel column spacing is the same
or very slightly larger than the spacing of your plastic lenticular panel.


Artists have made fully 3D lenticular images by building a custom optical
bench containing a copy lens, a rotating turntable to carry a 3D object,
and a lenticular panel in front of the film.  As the object on the
turntable rotates, the lenticular panel moves slightly, so the various
viewpoints of the illuminated 3D object are "painted" as vertical pixel
columns onto the film.  Besides the "giant pixel" version with the sliding
lens panel, we also had one of these professionally-made "custom
lenticulars" in the MOS exhibit "A Look In Depth".  Contact Doug Smith at

Does anyone have any recommendations of companies to buy inexpensive (but 
capable) class II or class IIIa lasers from?  We're looking for a red, 
green and possibly a blue laser capable of projecting a distance of 14 
feet, (with a spread of maybe 3 feet)  using a combination of gal-2 
scanners and mirrors on motors.  Essentially we are creating user 
controlled laser shows (simple lissajous figures).  I've bought from MWK 
quite a while ago, but I'm curious if there are others people have had 
positive dealings with.

Thanks in advance!

Okay, here's another question...
We are looking for some sources of good flexible foams.  More specifically 
we are looking for a source of soft foam balls (something that might fit 
inside 1" PVC) and various other semi-rigid foam shapes.  The foam shapes 
are for fins & nose-cones on an indoor "build & launch your own rocket" 
exhibit we are building.  The foam balls are for a really small project 
like the ball floaters in Airplay (unfortunately their foam balls were an 
overstock item they bought out).  I've found some really soft larger foam 
balls from Oriental Trading, and some foam shapes (assorted) from kid's 
play magazines, but no place where I can choose my shapes.  So, I'm looking 
for other sources.

Also, if anyone has sources for thin plastic tubing (thinner than schedule 
20 PVC but smaller in diameter and thicker than the polycarbonate 
flourescent tube protectors), than I would appreciate that source as well. 

Thanks in advance.

And I have used them before (and will likely again), but does anyone know of others they've used and liked?

I have a microscope, a Leica BF 200, that has a singular occular mounted on a 
tube about 6" long that protrudes from a turret. See 
<http://www.imillermicroscopes.com/bf.shtml>. The turret allows the viewer to 
work from any azimuth to look through the occular. The occular is held in place 
by a screw, and the barrel has an indention for the screw about 1/2" from the 
top of the tube. The occular's (eyepiece) outer diameter is 1.25", and the tube 
over which it fits has an OD of about 1.2". I would like to make a camera 
adapter for my 35mm Canon SLR out of some plastic that connects the viewing tube 
to the camera. I expect to use a lathe to do this. I've found ABS solid rods in 
McMaster-Carr. The price is a bit steep, 1.5" diameter for about $12.00/foot. 1' 
or 4' lengths. I probably need 18". Here's what I'm up to. There are two cases.

Case 1: If I mount my camera (without a camera lens, using a camera to telescope 
eyepiece adapter (outside diameter 1.25")) on a tripod and shoot down the tube, 
I need to be several inches away from the occular. To gain focus, I need to move 
the focus up and down while the camera is in a fixed position. It would be good 
to build an adapter that fit over the tube/occular and connected to the camera. 
It would be need to be two tubes, one of which fits inside the other. The upper 
tube attached to the camera could then be slid up and down for focus and then 
the tube tightened to the other with a screw.

Case 2: If I use the microscope without an occular and a camera without a lens, 
then I can achieve focus by bring the camera up to the end of the tube to focus. 
In fact, I have to move the tube inside the camera's body. To get this to work, 
I need to remove the microscope tube and replace it with a shorter tube.

Here are the questions. Where do I get cheaper plastic for either case than 
cited above? I've tried common PVC tube (both schedule 80 and 40). The OD's and 
ID's just don't work for the tube and occular sizes mentioned above. How do I 
get the tube out of the turret for case 2? I can remove the hemispherical turret 
easily, but the viewing tube sticking out of it doesn't want to twist out or 
come out at all.

	I wish to measure humidity and i grabbed a Vernier LabPro 
from our education department and ordered a humidity probe from 
Vernier. It, along with a temperature probe gives me very constant 
readings. If I breath heavily on the probe I get a spike. However, 
when I check the Vernier probe humidity reading with a sling 
psychrometer I get very different readings (app 16 % (Vernier) vs app 
25% (psychrometer).

	 The wet/dry bulb is said to be the gold standard. When I 
call Vernier the tech called back and verified the difference but had 
no explanation.

	Anyone understand what is going on and what is the true reading?

A plot of readings from the sling-p versus the probe  over a range of humidity
and temperature in the same room would give a better feeling for the transfer
  function of the probe.
Precision measures of humidity are not easy.

Martin,

I've been puttering around with dew point instruments of late, and finally 
thermometers. I happened to stop in at the LabPro in Sunnyvale this weekend. It 
may or may not be related to the one you mentioned. I got the impression from 
one of the sales people one would have to pay a pretty penny to get even an 
accurate thermometer, > $100. In the case of thermometers, it might be useful to 
calibrate them yourself with ice water and boiling water. Here's what seems like 
a good source on dew point instruments, and perhaps humidity instruments too <>.

There's an interesting kit sold by RadioShack on the subject of the atmosphere, 
$29. I looked at the contents in a store yesterday. It was created by Forrest 
Mimms. He's quite good. He now does work for SAS, Soc. Amatuer Sci, and they 
well it for a little less <www.sas.org>. I'd buy it from them before RS to keep 
SAS thriving.

P.S. I actually went to the LHS (Lawrence Hall of Sci) last weekend to check out 
their GEM books as part of a larger trip to SF. The book on evolution was quite 
good (we had an exchange on this on the ASTC list), but probably beyond the age 
group that typically attends our museum. I did get a chance to re-acquaint 
myself with the GEM series. It's really quite good, and I will recommend it to 
some of our museum support people and some of the science teachers (K-12) I 
occasionally have contact with. Note Amazon sells these books for 35% off. At 
least that seems to hold with the small sample I made.

	To continue. We are having problems that we are told is due 
to our lack of humidty controls in our new building. I am measuring 
humidity at approximately 24 % . Now that is not terribly low but I 
am curious about how many of your institutions (which are not 
collections based) have humidity controls as part of  your heating 
ventilating and air conditioning systems? I don't need elaborate 
descriptions just if you do or not. This is but one explanation for 
the problems we are having with some of our panels but I am curious 
about your systems. Thanks.

I have not gotten back to the question i pose earlier as I broken the 
wet bulb thermometer on my sling psychrometer and I am awaiting a 
replacement.

Hello everyone!
I'm just wondering if anyone out there had a particular model regenerative 
blower that they liked using for Bernoulli-type exhibits.  It would be even 
better if the blower had a variable speed control or could be easily 
modified to have one.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hello Everyone,

WonderLab is shopping around for a traveling exhibit to rent for Spring '06.  
We are a small museum - at max we can accommodate about 1,500 feet.  We've 
hosted OMSI's Brain Teasers and they've worked well, but now we're looking for 
something a bit different.  Some desired themes are sports science or robots, 
but any excellent interactive themed exhibit that will meet our space 
requirements will be considered.  We are especially interested in more physical 
interactives to contrast with the cerebral, puzzle-solving nature of the Brain 
Teasers exhibits.  I'm aware of ASTC Teams 'Team Up!' though as far as I know 
it's not available next Spring.  I'm also currently looking into ASTC Teams 
'Cool Moves' and Northwest Invention Center's 'Robot Rodeo'.

Long term, we are considering other strategies for meeting the goal of 
providing at least one major (for us) themed exhibit each year.  We're looking 
into creating our own themed clusters by purchasing individual exhibits around 
a theme from different suppliers.  We have some local design/build capability 
toward this end as well.  

I haven't had any luck finding a business or organization that will rent 
individual exhibits but I might not be looking in the right places. 

Any thoughts or advice you could offer would be extremely helpful.  Thanks for  
taking time out of your busy schedules to share your thoughts with us.

ecsite Annual Conference, 10-12 June
Heureka, the Finnish Science Centre, Helsinki-Vantaa

One conference theme for 2005 is 'Towards the future of science centres'.
The Lisbon Strategy - Europe as the most competitive knowledge based economy
in the world - implies a key role for science centres and museums as
vehicles in the process of improving public engagement with science and

I walk into a hardware store (this is not a guy-walks-into-a-bar 
joke) and search around for this THANG that has a particular shape 
and is exactly what I need  for my garden fences if I could find 300 
of them at a nickel each.  But I don't know that it's really a 
warpertweeternanoheterodynecoil or I would have known which aisle to 
search.  Some of you know what I mean.

In this case, I want to to build a cylindrical drum with a hole in 
one drumhead.  Mounted with heads perpendicular to the floor, you can 
send a puff of air out the hole by whacking the intact drumhead. 
Prop for a sound/waves assembly program.

Does this device have a name?  Any hints for construction?  Is 
cardboard concrete form tubing a good choice?  How do I keep the 
"holey end" from ripping out?  I do know it's not in Cheapbook 1 or 2 
and that volume 3 is out.  Congratulations, Paul!

I'm also building garden fences, but that's beyond the scope of this 
course.  This is exactly the day the oak leaves are the size of 
squirrels' ears at 45 degrees N lat, 93.5 W long

Here's another "what is it?" question.  One of my students has a 
magic wand made of metal wire maybe 1/8 inch in diameter.  It has a 
straight handle and is bent into an open five-pointed star at the 
"business end."  Very pretty, but the best part is that is rings very 
sweetly when rapped on something solid.

Am I looking for stiff, dense, high modulus?  It's clearly not copper 
or gold.  I'm working on a bunch of sound activities for a library 
program (yes, really).  We're trying to avoid mouth and ear-canal 
contact, but noise is fine.  I'm working on xylophone concepts with 
tubes or bars of various materials.    Thanks as always, Jane

You can buy them now...
I believe Arbor Scientific, Carolina Scientific and Edmund scientific sell 
them.
I've normallly heard them called Air Cannons.
https://www2.carolina.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?membe  
rId=-1002&productId=46275&langId=-1&storeId=10151&catalogId=10101
is one source.  Of course youc an make your own out of cardboard boxes, or 
whatever.  AirPlay from Montshire Museum of science also featured one of 
them.
I've seen a few different membranes used...each seems to have different 
advantages & disadvantages.

You can do a web search using the words air cannon and vortex if you want 
some "recipes" for creating them.

Has anyone out there used materials such as vinyl siding within an exhibit? 
 We are creating a new exhibit caleld Energy Avenue...and I was thinking 
that it would really be cool if we could make it look like like places you 
go to on a street...so vinyl siding and other building "finishes" would be 
cool to use.  I'm wondering how problematic thses surfaces would be within 
a permanent exhibit though...

I'm looking forward to your responses!

You wouldn't need a "drumhead" at the end with the opening -- a disc of plywood or other material with the hole in it should be as good or better. I'd use a piece of truck innertube for the drumhead and a disc of Sintra or such-like for the opening end. Maybe a short piece of large PVC pipe such as I see discarded on big construction sites (12" or larger diameter) would do? (You can tell I'm into "cheap"!) I guess it would be mounted on a pipe that would be the conduit for smoke from a smoke generator inside the base cabinet.

My suggestion:
A Flex-A-Tone, which is a hand-held percussion instrument with a blade of hard
steel and wodden balls on spring steel on each side. You shake it and the balls
impact the blade. You then squeeze the blade to vary the pitch, which is similar
to hitting a sawblade with a wooden mallet. Kids love it.

That's an air cannon.

You can build really durable ones from 5 gallon plastic pails. The pails are
usually either free, or $2 to $3 new. You can use plastic sheeting material for
the membrane, and either clamp it, or cut away the snap lid, leaving only a
ring, and use that for a retaining ring. Then cut a 5 inch or so diameter hole
in the bottom of the pail.

My website has instructions for making the cardboard-box kind.

For my sins. I received a dish of pastel colored glass on a stand,
containing sequenced colored LEDs and emitting a waterfall of
mist from an ultrasonic transducer.
I was surprised how long the dish of water lasts - the mist
has very small water particles indeed.

But the quantity of mist is small, no doubt.

An electric kettle can produce condensed steam in volume, if its water
level can be replenished - though if the water is at all hard, the kettle
will certainly let you know, soon enough.

I fancy Dr Resonance's suggestion best for short term use:
the CO2 ice is not hard to find, and not too expensive.

For longer term use, I can imagine that an evaporative cooler
to load the air, and a window air conditioner to blow  the evaporator
  with cooled air, could make a semi-permanent fogger.

Some flight simulators have used fogging oils which are said to be
relatively innocuous - this would be a simple approach - it needs
only a heater coil, and an oil feed, apparently.

Asthma has different triggers in different people.  Ordinary H2O will 
trigger my mom's asthma almost immediately.  Dry ice and water is pretty 
effective fog, but you may run into problems with either asthmatics or
folks who breathe on 02 trigger, rather than CO2.  If this is going to 
be a large, uncontained area of fog, I'd talk it over with a 
pulmonologist first.

I own a standard fog machine and haven't had any trouble with asthma
(although it hasn't been used that much).  The literature from the fog
company claims that the fog does not induce asthma and that it is often the
effect of just seeing the fog that causes some people to have a reaction.
Not having asthma myself, I have no idea if there are mental triggers.  I
don't completely trust the fog company's "it's-all-in-your-head" approach to
safety, but it's what they claimed.  I'd definitely check with a medical
professional.

A little fact:  Xyla (xylo?) in greek means wood so it's only a 
xylophone if it has wood keys.  Good fact for the library!
Now what's the definition of donging?  I think I hear bells ringing.... 
but I have to plead ignorance.  ;-)

I don't think there is a foolproof method.  It really depends on the type
of installation you want.  The typical foggers use an oily substance
(similar to mineral oil), a hazer (used in rock concerts) uses a slightly
different mix that results in a less dense fog.  Either of these will
eventually leave oily deposits on lenses and will put particulates in the
air (the hazer less so).  Theaters recommend using these style foggers
instead of dry-ice h20 foggers for safety (water fog can make surfaces
slippery, and a dry ice water fogger also puts out good amounts of CO2). 
Water-based fogs have been achieved two other ways as well (and are what
we use).  Using your ultrasonic transducer (available from many sources
including mainlandmart.com - they are used for giving ponds that foggy
look), or for larger installations by forcing water through special
misting spouts (I think I do have information on these somewhere if you
need it).
However as someone else already mentioned, even that can induce asthma. 
Why?  I'm not sure.  Certainly if you are putting any fog out into a room
you may want to let people know - particularly if it's not a water fog.

UltraSonic misters USED to be sold as 'humidifiers'.

That technique is NOT currently used because ALL of the minerals in 
the water end up suspended in the air!!!!  (NOT good for lungs in 
general)

Use distilled water for ultrasonics misters.

All the minerals that you see deposited in the steam kettle are put 
into the air by the misters. A fine white dust will settle to the 
floor if the hardness of the water is very high.

lithophone, cuprophone, polymerophone?

Anyway, the sound is very sweet and resonant, totally unexpected for 
tapping a piece of wire on a table top.  And louder than a tuning 
fork sounds at the same distance from one's ear.  Maybe it IS a magic 
wand!  Jane

Remember, too, that Legionella is known to have been spread by 
ultrasonic nebulizers.  So if you go this route, meticulous sanitation 
is needed.

Another option (instead of using distilled water) is to filter (via
reverse osmosis or DI canisters) the water prior to using a
transducer...of course the real question is...what type of fog do you want
to generate and how permanent of an installation do you want?  And which
problems do you want to tackle?

Mist from an ultrasonic mister looks more like fog (cause that's what it
is) unless it's heated (and even then IMHO).  Oil based fogs look more
like fire smoke unless they're cooled (and sometimes even then IMHO).

"Mee fog" is the company that does high-volume fog installations using tap
water. http://www.meefog.com Maybe experiment with making your own?  I'd
try putting very clean water in a pressure washer, and replace the sprayer
tip some sort of hydraulic fitting with a very tiny orfice.  The Mee fog
website shows their fogger heads as an orfice, with a sharp pointed thingy
aimed towards it.  Perhaps it fires a tiny high-velocity water jet towards
a solid object?  The impact would make a spray of micro-droplets, same as
firing a water jet at a solid wall.  The sharp cone shape as opposed to a
flat "target" is probably there to prevent a layer of water from building
up on the solid surface and disrupting the jet-to-solid impact effect.

Welcome to the DigiCULT Forum Market Survey

Dear user,

At the end of 2004, European Commission funding for the DigiCULT Forum
initiative came to an end. Given past experience, however, we sense a
great demand for the kind of contents and services DigiCULT Forum provides.

Therefore, we are currently working on a business plan to transform
DigiCULT into a self-sustaining service. This market survey is to better
understand the match between the market demand for our products and
services, and the willingness to pay for them.

We would like to ask you to fill out the enclosed questionnaire, which
takes about 5-10 minutes (we kept the market survey as straightforward
as possible). Your opinion is very important to us!

Only through wide participation in this survey, will it be possible to
conclude whether there is a paying market for future DigiCULT services.

We also encourage you to circulate this survey to other interested persons.

Please take the time to send us your opinion, and help us better serve
the needs of the European Cultural Heritage Community.

Welcome to the DigiCULT Online Consultation Forum:
Towards a Cultural Heritage RTD Roadmap.


Dear Expert,

the DigiCULT project is currently preparing a roadmap on the challenges
and possible achievements in research and technological development
(RTD) over the next 10 to 15 years that are likely to lead to advanced
applications for the cultural heritage sector.

The roadmap is a navigation tool that will provide essential
understanding and direction in the strategic planning of research
agenda, guiding investment in and funding of innovative RTD.

We invite you to participate in this roadmapping exercise, helping
DigiCULT to define and qualify the challenges and approaches ahead. The
roadmap will be published in Thematic Issue 7 that will be available in
December 2004.

Starting from the current IST programme's vision of "anywhere, anytime,
natural and enjoyable access to IST services for all" the roadmap
concentrates on the following five themes:

       * Theme 1: Intelligent & Contextual [MEANING]
       * Theme 2: Natural & Enjoyable Interaction [EXPERIENCES]
       * Theme 3: Create / Re-create [3D/AR/VR]
       * Theme 4: Large Scale & Distributed [AUTOMATION]
       * Theme 5: Persistent & Perpetual Access [PRESERVATION]

LAST REMINDER for participation in the DigiCULT Forum Market Survey.

Many thanks to all those that have already contributed.

At the end of 2004, European Commission funding for the DigiCULT Forum
initiative came to an end. Given past experience, however, we sense a
great demand for the kind of contents and services DigiCULT Forum provides.

Therefore, we are currently working on a business plan to transform
DigiCULT into a self-sustaining service. This market survey is to better
understand the match between the market demand for our products and
services, and the willingness to pay for them.

We would like to ask you to fill out the enclosed questionnaire, which
takes about 5-10 minutes (we kept the market survey as straightforward
as possible). Your opinion is very important to us!

Only through wide participation in this survey, will it be possible to
conclude whether there is a paying market for future DigiCULT services.

We also encourage you to circulate this survey to other interested persons.

Please take the time to send us your opinion, and help us better serve
the needs of the European Cultural Heritage Community.

A New Scientist Report...

EVOLUTION is once more under
attack in Kansas schools from
what pro-science groups have
branded a creationist "show trial".
Six conservative Christians on
the state's 10-member board of
education want state school
standards to admit alternatives
to evolution. This week public
hearings in Topeka are being
concluded, at which advocates of
"intelligent design" argued that
life is too complex to have arisen
entirely by natural processes, and
so requires a designer.
The US prohibits teaching
certain religions in state schools,
but supporters of intelligent
design claim it is science. Even so,
a witness in Topeka admitted that
the Judeo-Christian God is the
intelligent designer. And lawyer
John Calvert for the witnesses
charged that science is itself
"Endorsing an ideology" - atheism.
The Kansas Academy of
Science and other pro-science
groups boycotted what they called
"Show-trial hearings, whose
purpose is to make it appear that
intelligent-design creationism
and the well-established science
of evolution are on equal footing."
Pedro Irigonegaray,  a lawyer for
scientists at the hearings, says,
"We should not allow the minority
to hijack education and send it
back to the 16th century".
In 1999 the Kansas board of
education adopted standards for
schools that called for children to
be taught alternatives to evolution.
These were reversed in 2001 after
a new board was elected.

I was wondering what medium most people out there used for embedding 
magnets in.  Specifically, I want to have neodymium (rare earth) magnets 
pull  items around on the opposite side of a pane of tempered glass &/or 
acrylic.  So I was going to imbed the magnets in a casting of a urethane, 
epoxy or some style plastic cast that would allow its use but wouldn't 
scratch up the glass.  (You might think of the typical flow tunnel 
magnets).  So...what casting mediums have people out there used with 
success for this endeavor.  Information on where to get your favorite 
mediums would be appreciated as well.

I've never tried embedding magnets-- but I used one product from Polytek 
to make a rubbing plate that has lasted for over 6 years.  They make all 
kinds of mold and casting products;  you can choose color and many other 
properties.  I cast the 2-part product I used (poly 15-3) in a baking 
sheet (greased with vaseline) and then used a Dremel tool to put the 
pattern in it (Aztecs counted in base 20 using symbols like finger, 
flag, and feather); you can machine this as well.

You can order smaller quantities to try out.  610-559-8620.  As I 
recall, they were pretty helpful on the phone.

PS I got this information originally by calling another museum- one of 
our volunteers had seen a rubbing plate in another museum.. so the cycle 
repeats itself!

Hmmm...I have this horrible prejudice that soft surfaces will embed grit
  before long and start scratching the glass surface.

I recalled seeing teflon furniture castors which I suspect might do quite
well despite this concern.
Gluing things to teflon is not the easiest thing, but a mechanical fastening
might serve the purpose. Otherwise, a two part epoxy resin would cast a
relatively hard puck or a polyester resin plus catalyst would make a
softer puck.  Wax also comes to mind....   Then there is the tool embedding 
resin
which is used for transporting steel tools. This is a rather soft, pliable 
material.

A reference librarian on another list, asked this question:

"I'm looking for the museum from which the Wyatt Earp saddle was stolen.  I
know of the whereabouts of the saddle, but don't know which museum it was
stolen from.  I believe that it was a very small museum.  That's all I
know."

I would be glad to pass on information about that museum.

Sincerely

Has anyone figured out the perfect flooring for a bubble area? We tried rubber
tiles with grit, and the grit came off after 2 years and the rubber looked
yellow; other rubber ones we've tested are slippery with soap on them.  ??????

Boat-owners are ambivalent about the use of floor-paint loaded with sharp sand.
They acknowledge its anti-slip properties however.
You might find it is a cost-effective cover over concrete etc.

Hey Guys!

I've got the goods on this one - or rather, I know exactly where to send you on this. Call the
Children's Museum in Houston and ask for the exhibits department. The current head is Chad Gerry
(sp) but when I talked to them almost 2 years ago the lead was Eric Spana. He told me that they
had gone round and round on the flooring issue because of insurance reasons as well as use
problems and that they found a solution that satisfied both to a T. Actually, the insurance
company liked it so much they were recommending it their other institutional clients.

The solution, from what I can remember, were mats from commercial refrigerators, but talk to Chad
to get the straight skinny.

Good luck!

Cecelia Ottenweller

Ken has a functional APRS VHF rig aboard his bike in the "Tour to
Cure" for  Diabetes today and tomorrow.  Today they go from
  Columbia, SC, to St George, SC on their way to Charleston.
They'll camp in St George,  tonight,
then proceed through Charleston to James Island County Park, the
finish  line.

Ken's APRS station is a walkie talkie and GPS receiver transmitting
... 5 watts to a small antenna, so you will only be able to see his last
APRS   automatic reporting transmission, now 5 hours old as I
  type this, near  Lake Marion.
   The internet links get data from repeater stations that
receive   Ken's transmitter and relay it to a much wider area,
so he must be in range   of those stations.
Just follow the link and you can see what other hams have done
withthe APRS to Internet link.
  There is a map showing, now, Ken's bike in
someone's yard, probably a rest stop.  Just below the map, the
findu.com  software also shows his bike's exact location along side
some farmer's  driveway in an aerial photograph of the area!
...wouldn't it be nice if the family you left at home could go to
findu.com with your ham station on the boat and see your last
transmission   showing exactly where your GPS puts you, your
speed and course,  reassuring  them that you are OK and
  moving along nicely (or at anchor in some
exotic place, making them green with envy)?"

Seeing this AI implementation note on Theory-edge list,
suggested to me that it might possibly make an amusing
conversation-piece at a science museum or physics class.

Warning: I have not yet tried these downloads, and I will
  certainly have anti-virus code active when the moment
  comes....

From: "AT Murray" <mentifex at scn dot org>...

Mentifex Mind.Forth AI has recently made a lot of progress towards
becoming an AI brain or AI engine. Mind.Forth has long been plagued
with a problem of making spurious associations from concept to
concept during the generation of a thought in natural language. Now
recently in 2005, the user option of cycling through Normal, Tutorial
and Diagnostic display modes has been added. As such, Mind.Forth is
an excellent vehicle for teaching about AI to students from high
school on up. You just press the "Tab" key, and the AI lets you see
deep (Tutorial) and deeper (Diagnostic) into its own thought
processes. It is an eerie feeling, to see a computer mind stripped
naked while thinking.
