...longa, vita brevis,”—life is short, art long—runs the ancient proverb. Ask artist Peter Smuts, whose show “The Human Pixel Project” is currently showing at Mather’s Three Columns Gallery, and he might tell you that life is pixelated, and art even more so.Smuts has assembled eight color-themed panels out of hundreds of two-inch square tiles. Each tile, however, is a work of art in its own right. Smuts started the project by sending out blank tiles to artists around the country...
...disc feature that lets you burn straight from camcorder to DVD. Of course, the requirement is that your PC has a DVD burner. Also, you will lose the high-definition video resolution when you burn to DVD, but at least you?ll be starting with a very nice 1280x720 pixel picture...
Silicon Optix owns the fix. The firm, based in San Jose, Calif., has designed an advanced video-processing chip that cleans up video for all sorts of displays. The private company's secret sauce is its Realta chip, which enables real-time, pixel-by-pixel processing of HDTV, delivering Hollywood-quality video to consumers at a fraction of the cost. It's like having a "supercomputer on a chip," boasts Paul Russo, 62, Silicon Optix's fast-talking CEO. The Realta is truly industry changing because it's the first programmable video-chip processor. The video chips can be upgraded...

Video quality wasn't bad, but at times, especially in indoors in low light, I noticed far too much video noise-the dots that swirl like gnats inside solid colors. In addition to the MG30 and the 20GB MG20, there are the MG40 and MG50, which sport larger imaging sensors (1.33 megapixels) and are therefore set up to deliver better video quality. The MG40 and MG50...
...product's name is a dead giveaway that PalmOne is aiming this at people who, in fact, have lives. Drag pictures and movies into the LifeDrive Manager software, and it converts them to compatible formats, optimized to look good on the 320x480-pixel color screen. You can also load your MP3s using Windows Media Player or RealNetworks' Rhapsody software. We filled a test unit with 350 songs, more than 400 pictures and the entire feature film Garden State, and we still had more than 1 GB of space left. --By Wilson Rothman
