FocusRight – For 3D Illusions

Back in my glory days at SPU, my senior software engineering project was a great experience for me. I was on
a four person team of fellow students in my Computer Science major. We basically had one quarter to make a full version software product.
We decided to make FocusRight, a program for making Single Image Random Dot Sterograms. Most people would better know them
as ‘Magic Eye’ illusions. I thought I’d share it out so that people
could download it and try it for themselves. It runs on windows. Enjoy!

To Do List for this Weekend

This is going to be the busiest weekend ever!

1.) Attend my Dad in law’s wedding rehearsal. I’m an usher (no, not THE Usher) in the wedding.
2.) Pick up the family van at my brother Kevin’s house in Lake Stevens Friday night.
3.) Go to the wedding Saturday morning, and immediately after the ceremony drive my brother and his family to Vancouver, BC to catch their flight to Scotland.
4.) Come back from Canada the same day (Saturday) and return the van to my brother.
5.) Saturday night, pack up our stuff to get ready for the move.
6.) Sunday is moving day! Moving from our apartment in Issaquah to our new (to us) house in Puyallup.
7.) Collapse. (mr)

Wallpapers

I’m going to start adding some wallpapers that I’ve created to the gallery. I have quite a few to upload and I just need to find them on my hard drive. 😉 My first one is of the Christmas variety.

SNES Music

Man, this guy has achieved ultimate geekness. I thought I was a geek until I read this page. This guy figured out how to connect to the SNES music processor. That’s so ~~nerdy~~ cool to me. Maybe just the fact that I think that is cool makes me a geek enough.

In other news: tonight I am going to the AMD tech tour to see all that the Athlon 64 has to offer. Should be fun, could be dumb.

Andrew Platter’s New Record

For those that don’t know, Andrew Platter has been my best friend since the fourth grade. He’s a worship leader at Alderwood Manor Community Church. I made a fun little flash player that lets you preview three of Andrew’s new songs. Hopefully the full album will be released soon but we thought it’d be cool to get some of them out there for people to hear. My favorite is ‘What I See’. Click here to listen! (you’re gonna want a broadband connection) 😀

Death Cab For Cutie

I’ve been really diggin’ Death Cab For Cutie’s album ‘Transatlanticism’. They’re kinda emo, but more happy. So I guess that’s called ‘hapmo’. They’re from the northwest so I’m excited to catch a show of theirs sometime soon. Here’s a link to a free mp3 of ‘A Movie Script Ending’, one of my favorite songs that they do. Rock, rock on!
