A Wall of 250 Canon Cameras Flashing Their Lights Is a Seizure Waiting to Happen

A Wall of 250 Canon Cameras Flashing Their Lights Is a Seizure Waiting to Happen Japan musicians Androp built a backdrop of 250 Canon cameras and programmed all their flashes to fire off in a sort of digital stop-motion screen. Watch it, though I can't guarantee the video won't blind you and give you a seizure.

They programmed the 250 Canon cameras with Arduino, openFrameworks and Flash. There wasn't any CG used in the video, what you see is exactly what happened: cameras flashing like a mother. There's a "making of" video that gives you a behind the scenes look at what they needed to do to get it prepared and Androp has a built a website that shows you the pictures the cameras took while they shot the video (nice backs guys!) and see a custom message displayed in the lights. Check that out here.

A Wall of 250 Canon Cameras Flashing Their Lights Is a Seizure Waiting to Happen Be warned though, the music ain't for everybody. [Androp.jp via Fast Company] You can keep up with Casey Chan, the author of this post, on Twitter or Facebook.

crazy use of cameras and flashes- awesome!

WoW Tycoon Gold Guide Addon Review | Make WoW Gold FAST! | World of Warcraft Guides

WoW TYCOON GOLD GUIDE Addon REVIEW

One of Manaview’s most recent creation is the WoW Tycoon Gold Guide Addon. It is an in-game addon that is designed to automate the most complex game strategies that produces at least a 500% increase in gold income.
For those WoW players who have been hurting for something better than Vanilla, your wish has been granted. Now, the way gold is made has been forever changed!

That’s a huge claim- but read on, and see why I am comfortable with making that statement! Let’s cut to the chase and come out with our verdict after a week of testing..

Q. Does ‘Tycoon Gold Guide Addon’ actually work?
A. Definitely! 100%!
Users have said that they made 230% more gold on the average when they used the Tycoon Gold Guide Addon. My personal experience established that this was a safe estimate. I actually used the addon for several days and when I did open my mailbox, there was around 500 to 700% more gold than the usual amount I make using the exact same strategies without the Tycoon Gold Guide Addon.

Q. How does the Tycoon Gold Guide Addon work?
A. The basic idea was simplistic but it made a lot of sense.
Manaview gathered the cream of the crop gold strategies available for the game and created an addon that automatically does the most difficult or time consuming parts of the strategy. Due to it’s automated feature, the strategy was optimized and streamlined thereby being more efficient in what it does. The result is 5 times more gold than what is usually made.

There are 5 strategies that were included in the addon and they are Crafting, Farming/Grinding, Auction House Playing, Gathering, and Dailies. Together they make up 95% of the gold making strategies currently being used by the WoW community.

Your server’s economy is analyzed in detail by the add-on and lets you know such things as:

  • Specific strategy that will generate the most revenue
  • Which item will earn the most
  • Best way to acquire that item by providing you information such as : hot farming locations or optimized gathering routes
  • It has the ability to sense if there are too many people using the same strategy and will then let you know which item has no or little competition but with very high demand. This translates to you as being the only one with that particular item since it has no or little competition. Then, due to it having a high demand, you can dictate the price you want to sell it at.

Q. Is it easy to learn?
A. Yes, it has a detailed set of instructions that is easy to comprehend!
The first thing you need to do when you start the Tycoon Gold Guide Addon, is to scan the Auction House to initiate Tycoon Gold Guide into learning your economy. One click of a button will usually get this done. You may have noticed it’s similarity to Auctioneer with the exception of having a quicker scan that takes no more than 30 seconds to complete.WoWTycoonGoldGuideAddon ManaCore Ring WoW Tycoon Gold Guide Addon Review

Upon completion of the scan, Tycoon Gold Guide will have enough information to work it’s magic. A window will pop up with a list of items. These items are arranged according to how much Tycoon Gold Guide calculates you will make, per hour, if you acquire that item. The first on the list will produce the most.WoWtycoongoldguide addon interface WoW Tycoon Gold Guide Addon Review

Tycoon Gold Guide’s accuracy in picking the items that will make the most money is most impressive. It is capable of processing enormous amounts of data in seconds that would take a human several hours to figure out. Most mistakes by users occur when they skip the learning of the economy part and go directly to picking the items that are highest on the list. They would soon discover that those items may not make the most gold per hour.

It has the ability to learn the market beyond that of a human and can analyze if the economy is inflated or if there is too much competition. Tycoon Gold Guide will also provide alternate choices if it calculates that conditions are not right for a particular item. You have more confidence in yourself and the strategy when you are making the most gold at any given time.

Tycoon Gold Guide does not only tell you, it shows you how! When Tycoon Gold Guide tells you to mine Obsidian ore, just click on the “Show me routes” button and it will give you highly optimized routes. Ant trails are then created to guide you to the mining node locations that are most populated. This allows you to double the amount of ore you get when mining by yourself. All 5 Strategy Modules have special features that aids in getting the most of an item in the quickest possible time.WoWTycoonGoldGuideGatheringRoutes WoW Tycoon Gold Guide Addon Review

Q. Is there anything I did not like about Tycoon Gold Guide?
A. There is only one thing I could make a comment on.
There are times when Tycoon Gold Guide will identify an item as the Most Profitable but is not really in high demand. Note that you should not acquire items with low demand as the objective is to sell items quickly unless you don’t mind waiting until you eventually sell it.

WoW TYCOON GOLD GUIDE Addon REVIEW Conclusion

As revolutionary as it is, Tycoon Gold Guide will be changing Gold Making from here on and playing without Tycoon Gold Guide will be an impossible task. It is a “cool” add-on and has a solid and stable run rate. Using it will be as easy as counting 123. Implementing the gold strategies and its different aspects is based on relevant data and the features will let you do it faster and better.

Finally, if you are serious about becoming a real Gold Tycoon, heed my advice and check out Tycoon Gold Guide. Make the most gold in no time!
