Leave it to my sister to discover a sustainable, environmentally-friendly urban farm in NYC this past weekend.

Okay, it was actually interesting to see plants that grow without soil, and it makes you think about how many Manhattan rooftops are going to waste …

Check out the the New York Sun Works site to find tour times.

Liquid Image? Carving/Resizing for the Content-Aware

Sunday, September 2nd, 2007

My friend Jeff pointed me out to this post on Seam Carving for Content-Aware Image Resizing by Ariel Shamir. Apparently, it was just shown at this year’s SIGGRAPH, and, to put it shortly, it’s a way to make images in HTML pages scale/adhere to liquid CSS layouts.

Overall, it’s pretty impressive, and I’m sure some use will come of it. Would I want my photographs being manipulated in such a manner, though? No way :)
