Data mining/AI/robots/hackerspace meet-up this Thursday

This Thursday at 7pm our StrongSteam will run a friendly pub meet around: Data mining Artificial Intelligence (AI) Robots Hackerspaces The goal is to bring people together from StartupChile and the local community who are interested in the above subjects. The meeting is just a pub meetup, if there’s demand then I’ll organise speakers for […]

strongsteam – an “AppStore for A.I. and data mining tools”

Kyran and I are starting work on a new project – strongsteam offers a web API with artificial intelligence and data mining tools. The goal is to make it easy for you to do things like: get the text out of images using optical character recognition determine whether two images look the same and if […]

Closing The Screencasting Handbook’s email list

At the start of the year I published The Screencasting Handbook, my eBook on the art of screencasting gained whilst building ShowMeDo and ProCasts. Writing a 129 page book was an interesting challenge, I’m very happy with my early peer-review approach, the book retailed at $39 at first and later I dropped the price to […]

“A.I. in the real world” 2011 lecture at Sussex Uni

I’ve just given my yearly lecture at Sussex Uni talking about Artificial Intelligence in the real-world. It details some of my exploits over the last 10 years. The presentation is below, I’ve also linked to some of the videos below. A.I. in the Real World – Sussex Uni lecture March 2011 View more presentations from […]

And on with 2011

Earlier this year I switched back to my long-running artificial intelligence and CUDA high performance computing consultancy work through Mor Consulting. Having sold ProCasts earlier in the year and moved entirely away from screencasting (leaving ShowMeDo in Kyran’s capable hands) I wanted to get back to the nitty gritty of low level algorithms and implementations. […]

EuroPython 2010

I’m hugely looking forward to EuroPython in Birmingham from Monday. I’m driving up Monday very early (I wish I’d booked the hotel room for Sunday night too…). Browsing through the abstracts I’d say all the following look darned interesting! C++ integration concurrent sequential processes Arduino hacking javascript OpenData aerodynamics PyPy and Unladen Swallow game programming […]

Presenting A.I. at FlashBrighton (using Python!)

A couple of weeks back I presented an Artificial Intelligence evening at FlashBrighton with John Montgomery and Emily Toop. The night covered optical character recognition, face detection, robots and some futurology. A video link should follow. Optical Character Recognition to Read Plaques Recently I’ve been playing with OCR to read photos with text, a particular […]

Talking on Artificial Intelligence next Tuesday at FlashBrighton

I’ve been invited to speak with John Montgomery next Tuesday at FlashBrighton – 7pm at The Werks for 1.5-2 hours or so of demos. We’ll be covering: Head tracking robot (build your own in a few hours!) Skiff Privacy Invasion – what we can learn from data mining the SkiffCam (the Gov’t can do it […]
