jrwrenlol, art.13:42
shakes808apparently there is a 2 hour version of that13:44
shakes808:|13:44
jrwreni do not want to watch it. I do want to know what it is, where it was performed, who wrote it, how much is improvised, and probably some ohter questions13:45
cmaloneyI want to know where they got their medical supplies and how I can get a cane that turns into a wind instrument13:47
jrwreni'd guess it is custom made.13:48
jrwrenyou know those artists, so creative!13:49
cmaloneyheh13:50
shakes808haha, a lot of unanswered that will remain unanswered :) ;)14:02
cmaloneyAll I have to say is if this is the sort of thing that gets you into a theater to watch performer then more power to you.14:06
cmaloneyI won't impede your progress one iota, especially not by taking up valuable seats.14:06
jrwrenlol14:07
jrwrenyeah, don't read the comments. It seems many people have never seen modern dance.14:07
cmaloneyYeah, I know my limits on modern dance14:08
cmaloneymuch like Opera and most vocal music (choirs, musicals, etc)14:08
cmaloneyI just hope the guy with the tubes in front of him never trips, or he's going to have a very bad day14:09

shakes808PDT not EST :)17:26
jrwrenit started. the audio is out of sync.17:37
jrwrenvideo delayed by a fractino of ssecond. ~150ms is my guess.17:37
greg-gsync for me17:38
greg-gsync'd17:38
jrwrenlooks like it synced up.17:38
jrwrenwas funny at first.17:38
greg-g:)17:38
greg-gwhat is NAB?17:39
greg-gNAB Show is an annual trade show produced by the National Association of Broadcasters. It takes place in April at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada17:39
greg-gThanks wikipedia17:39
greg-gugh, I'm goign to close this, too much marketing bs for me17:39
greg-gthe fuck that little camera will help you probe deeper into the mysteries of space17:40
greg-gmarketing bs17:40
jrwrenyeah, pretty bad.17:41
jrwrenooh.. it does look good.17:42
jrwreni'm only on 2.5k display right now.17:42
jrwrenthe delay is pretty cool.17:44
cmaloneyBlergh17:45
greg-gpublic/private partnerships are all about ads, apparently :)17:47
rick_hugh17:47
rick_hpretty picture17:47
jrwrenthe intro is terrible. now that it is interview, it is fun to watch17:48
rick_htook a sec to get pulling full bandwidth I guess17:48
cmaloneySo basically this is NASA acting as a commercial for 4K broadcasts17:48
jrwrenyes, I thought they got lots of money for it.17:49
rick_hhopefully17:49
jrwreni wonder if they are using h.265 :17:50
jrwren:)17:50
cmaloneyThat's why it's no fun to play hide and seek with scientists17:50
cmaloneyall you need to do is drop a handful of change in the room and they all come out of hiding17:51
rick_houch17:51
rick_hwell, if only we valued progress like we think we do :P17:51
cmaloneyWe value marketability17:51
rick_hhave you seen the bill nye show? I cringe!17:52
cmaloneyworst question a scientist can hear is "waht's the practical application of this"?17:52
cmaloneyrick_h: We're too old for that show17:52
rick_hbut I mean it's brutal17:52
cmaloneyBill Nye was for JoDee's sister's generation17:52
rick_hmy wife's watched a couple more but I walked out through half of one17:52
jrwrenthe new one? right?17:53
cmaloneyWe tried the first episode. JoDee said "I do this for my Physical Science students"17:53
cmaloneySo it didn't have the same "whiz-bang" that it could have had17:53
jrwrenthe old one is pretty funny to see now. It was on a b-broadcast channel a while back, 4.2, I think, and i watched some with the kiddo.17:53
cmaloneyand then they went into the skits and I was pretty much done17:53
rick_hjrwren: yea, the new one17:55
jrwrennow I want to watch bill nye and see how bad it is.17:55
rick_hjrwren: drink first :)17:55
jrwrenha!17:55
cmaloneyagain, it's not for our generation17:55
cmaloneyit's for the generation that grew up watching him17:56
rick_hI pity the generation it is for17:56
cmaloneyNot everyone could have grown up with Mr. Wizard and his harsh but fair criticism of children17:56
jrwrenMr. Wizard was fun!17:57
cmaloneymr. Wizard was a dick17:57
rick_hlol17:57
jrwrenwas he?17:57
