Evelyn Glennie shows how to listen

What struck you?
What struck me was how without the sticks she could play the instrument, and do different sounds wit her hands and invent some to and also add her bracelet noise but what was the most striking thing is that she's death; and she can still add other sounds and make them sound good together and she doesn't need to hear nothing.

What did you notice?
I noticed that you could tell that she's really into music and although she can't hear what she's playing she feels it some how;and what I also noticed was that she could close her eyes and still be on track on what her next note or where ever shes putting her note is going to be. And also I noticed she has an accent which I thought it was nice:) although it sounded funny.

What did you enjoy about her performance?
What I enjoyed about her performance was how she played it, but that she was playing solo with nobody like a partner etc. And also I liked how she was explaining the instruments that if the "marimba" didn't have that space below it wouldn't sound the same or better.

Gaming in 2010

1. A brief summary of the topic. What is it? What field of research does it fall under?
They have invented a smart button that sends your character where you want him to go with the fewest button pushes, so then there will be no more getting stuck on a table or behind a crate, a quirk of older first-person games. It falls under technology.

2. What's the big deal with this topic? Why should you care about its developments and any new discoveries that are made?
That it will save you time when your playing. Because eventually it will sell and be a helpful thing, to the ones that are addicted.

3. What's going to happen to this topic in 2010?
It will get big and meager that they will start inventing other things like that.

4. What obstacles or setbacks are in the way of this topic's success?
I think nothing bad will happen but, they'll start getting tired of it and not use it and it will get old.

TV on the Go

1. A brief summary of the topic. What is it? What field of research does it fall under?
That they are sending TV live to cellphones, netbooks, and other mobile devices as well. It falls under entertainment.

2. What's the big deal with this topic? Why should you care about its developments and any new discoveries that are made?
That it you don't need to be at your house watching that big screen, if you need to be somewhere else you could watch your favorite show or whatever on your cellphone, or even on a netbook.

3. What's going to happen to this topic in 2010?
Many people are going to be crazy about this new thing and get it, then it'll get old and something better will come up.

4. What obstacles or setbacks are in the way of this topic's success?
I think a difficulty would be something wrong happening to the connection, when the company etc. already sold and it starts going wrong.
