Infiniti Interactive Mirrors.

Alex

If you like our previous posts on the Multi-Touch Interaction Screen and Future Office Table, you'll love this interactive mirror:

The installation consists of three 8’ high by 3.5 ’ wide panes of mirrored glass placed side by side, each displaying rear-projected content from a high-lumen projector. A user standing in front of the mirrors has the unusual sensation of seeing their reflection and the projected content simultaneously.

Sensors embedded in the structure above each pane register when a user reaches out to a “hot spot,” allowing users to navigate the projected content without ever needing to touch the “screen” or press a “button.” This combined with scale of the system, and the projected image being captured on the inside surface of the glass creates a unique spatial experience where the content appears organically before the viewer. An additional sensor recognizes when a user approaches and automatically activates the mirror to welcome the visitor.

The interactive mirror is created by Nikolai Cornell of madein.la and Phil van Allen of Commotion New Media, with content by Designory and Mindflood. It was commissioned by The George P. Johnson Company.

Hooray for one of my favorite recurring topics.

If you liked Mushishi, you might like Mononoke. It's apparently a spinoff from another series, but that's as best as I can say. Even so, without watching the original, Mononoke was fantastic.

On the topic of supernatural anime, Re-Kan and Rin-Ne are two humorous supernatural anime that seem pretty good so far, with only two episodes to go by.

There's so many new shows this season I won't list them all. I'm also watching "Is It Wrong..." and "Food Wars". Another new one is "Plastic Memories" but it's still a bit of a mystery where it's going (think Blade Runner meets moe). And I just HAVE to mention "Show By Rock!!". The first episode was a total blast, but it's admittedly probably got limited appeal. Lots of CGI, idols and stuff like that.

Honestly, I haven't been keeping up with anime since 2005. I've only watched one anime show in the last ten years (Attack on Titan). I looked at the shows you listed and it seems Aldnoah.Zero is a good watch. Kinda reminds me of Gundam Seed.

Speaking of which, reading your description of Food Wars, I am reminded of the anime Yakitate Japan and Cooking Master Boy. In fact, it seems food animes/manga must be over-the-top to get anyone to watch them.

I suppose they would have to be over-the-top, or else they would just be cooking shows. Although some people like to watch cooking shows for reasons that escape me.

I think you should try watching Berserk, most underrated anime I've watch and read (manga). Also take time to watch Nagi no Asakara, visually stunning anime. You could try looking at new animes, but most of them are moe-centered and lacks so much in depth. But I've been recently following Arslan Senki and Owari no Seraph.
