It seems inevitable that a movie should be stored as a giant cube built with myraid 3D polygons ("polycube" for a working term), where the axises of the cube are X, Y, and time. There would be no need for frames or pixels, those are only things the end-user's display device will have to create based on its particular technology.

Converting it for display would be like rapid "slicing of the cheese". A given second can be sliced into 10 frames or a 1000, there is no limit, other than computer processing of the display device.

Frame interpolation for smoothing then wouldn't be needed because there are no frames. Older movies can be converted to a polycube using conversion and interpolation algorithms. It could indicate a "favored frame rate" to reduce interpolation anomalies, which would make nostalgic purists happy.

It should also make producers happier because it gives display devices less reason to have to guess.

I suspect they'll eventually end up being designed akin to tall buildings with corridors between adjacent buildings ever few floors. The coolant will run in between.

Okay, but "Very very very very dim matter" is not very catchy.

My fortune cookie said it did, dammit, and cookies have only been wrong once!

I hope everyone spoofs his shit, waters it down, changes the lyrics with AI, etc. eKarma!

the unwillingness of most people to accept that something could possibly exist unless it somehow interacts with the electromagnetic field.

But that makes proving its existence very difficult. Maybe "exist" is a continuum. We are all Schrodinger's Cats?

This was meant for the Amazon article, not Adobe. I apologize.

Fair enough, fancy white paint.

"White paint"

1. There are a lot of empty seats; a lot.

2. The demo wasn't live, likely due to the huge failure of an event that the Meta one was.

3. They noted that you do all of this 'hands-free', likely an intentional knock at Meta's offering.

4. The examples were...odd. Who the fuck is going to be using this to shop for a fucking rug? Come on; give some real-life examples that are IMPORTANT. None of these were.

5. The entire presentation's style, across multiple different presenters, was...exhausting...halting...jarring...and...really undergraduate level. It was almost as if they were being fed what to say in their earpieces, not from memory and not in a fluid and practiced way.

Personally? I love the idea of AR glasses that work well. I want to have live subtitles for humans talking to me as I'm hard of hearing and hearing aids do not work well for me, particularly in public spaces.

I want it to give me important information, respond to my environment in ways that are useful (telling me where I am really isn't that; I know where the fuck I am--tell me what I should be doing or where I should be going next, perhaps?)

I know these are early adopter level devices, but they're just fucking ugly due to their bulk.

I strongly prefer this option to Meta's simply because I don't have to do stupid fucking mime-style hand gestures, but I want this technology to be useful, now, not in 5 years. We're going to see this largely flop just like so many other AR/VR toys out there unless they make this something more than a gimmicky piece of shit.

Looks like they are using a paid service that serves open-source apps as a semi-unified "palette" of tools.
