Breakdown To Breakthrough

Picture_8

 

"There has been much discussion about the value of the “creative pause” – a state described as “the shift from being fully engaged in a creative activity to being passively engaged, or the shift to being disengaged altogether.” This phenomenon is the seed of the break-through “a-ha!” moments that people so frequently report having in the shower. In these moments, you are completely isolated, and your mind is able to wander and churn big questions without interruption.

iPhone Directions From Space

<p>Homemade Spacecraft from Luke Geissbuhler on Vimeo.</p>


"This breathtaking video documents Brooklyn-based cinematographer Luke Geissbuhler’s quest with his son to launch an iPhone 4 and an HD video camera into space using a weather balloon. The mission was a success, and the footage is absolutely gorgeous.


Geussbuhler launched the balloon from Newburgh, New York, and it climbed at a rate of 25 feet per second to 19 miles above the surface of the earth just an hour later. The balloon burst and the package containing the iPhone and the camera fell back to the ground on a parachute.


The father-son team tracked the package using the iPhone’s GPS (go MobileMe (MobileMe)!) transmitter and found it in a tree 30 miles north of its launch location. They successfully extracted the video and edited it into what you see above."
