I use primarily open-source apps, but I still use Windows because I think Linux is way too far behind to be reasonably cost-effective for personal use. This is a pretty good summary of my gripes against Linux, and also against open-source development in general. I’ll add that this is one of my primary problems: This is how open-source developers’ poor understanding of UI design and user experience are embedded into Linux design. To get a taste of this, install GIMP on Mac or Windows, and notice how the dialog boxes (particularly the open/save dialogs) are different from what you’re used to. In fact, GIMP open/save dialogs are vastly inferior to Windows WIN32 API open/save dialogs. I’m not willing to take such a major hit in usability just to save $100 on my operating system. |

You’re Not My Father is going to be installed at the MCA Denver, show opening this Tuesday. I got one more submission to the project since I finished it, so the version at the museum will be 20 seconds longer with the new footage. Here’s the AVISynth script that I used to edit the raw footage into the exact same cuts as the original clip:

Expensive, but I doubt there’s any other way to capture processor-intensive stuff at 1280×1024/30fps: VGA2USB |

It looks like it’s possible to play video files within programs that use the SDL library: http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=348340 |

There are two new media teaching positions opening at University of North Texas in Denton, which is basically a suburb of Dallas. The positions require an MFA. I like Denton, and UNT has notable arts and music programs. I would consider applying if I had an MFA. If anyone is interested in this, contact me and I’ll give you more information. As an incentive, my gallery brings a lot of new media to Dallas. In the three years we’ve been open we’ve had Tom Moody, Paper Rad, Cory Arcangel, Michael Bell-Smith, Artificiel, John Michael Boling and Javier Morales, JODI, Arcangel Constantini, Kevin Bewersdorf, Guthrie Lonergan, Kristin Lucas, Marisa Olson, Olia Lialina and Dragan Espenschied, and Petra Cortright. Most of those artists came to Dallas for the show. |
