El último vuelo

El último vuelo por Romain Hugault 4 estrellas: aviones, ¿qué más quieres? El último vuelo . Romain Hugault.


Teruo, Tom, Günther y Alain son cuatro pilotos que luchan en la segunda guerra mundial en distintos frentes, pero sus historias están entrelazadas aunque ellos no lo sepan y sólo Hugault y sus lectores participen de secreto.


Viñeta de el último vuelo


Como en El Gran Duque, del mismo autor, la atención al detalle de los dibujos no dejará frío a ningún aerotrastornado, y la historia tampoco está nada mal, adentrándose en las motivaciones que llevan a estos cuatro jóvenes a enfrentarse a su destino al último vuelo de cada uno de ellos, recordándonos que la imagen de glamour que normalmente se asocia a los pilotos de caza no siempre tiene mucho que ver con la realidad.

Vídeo: The Clockmakers


Una película de animación experimental de esas que tanto nos gustan aquí porque parecen clips de Barrio Sésamo adaptados al siglo XXI.


Es un trabajo de Renaud Hallée y resulta bastante hipnótico e incluso un poco escheriano (¡ah, si nuestro admirado artista hubiera podido hacer vídeo!).

Norway's Crown Prince And Princess Talk Startups And Try Out The Oculus Rift

royal couple norway

Norway’s Crown Prince Haakon and his wife Princess Mette-Marit were in Silicon Valley this week, and I asked them about their hopes to bring more startups and innovation to their home country.


I interviewed Haakon and Mette-Marit at Norway’s Innovation House Silicon Valley, a co-working space in Palo Alto for Norwegian startups looking to enter the US market. The couple saw demos from several startups — the prince even tried on some Oculus Rift virtual reality goggles — it was part of Making View‘s demo of its technology for capturing and exploring 360-degree video footage. (He said it was “pretty awesome.”)


Haakon actually lived in the Bay Area a decade ago, when he was attending UC Berkeley. He told me that he also attended the opening of the Innovation House 18 months earlier — since then, it has been used by more than 25 companies. Norway is “constantly trying to foster a culture of innovation,” he said.


When I asked what kind of relationship they would like to see between Norway and Silicon Valley, Mette-Marit said:



I think it’s important that we have this house as a starting point. But obviously, we also have examples of companies that have been doing very good here before this house came … I think that’s important that you have some companies that have done well and are willing to take on a sort of mentoring role for the other companies coming after.



I didn’t get a chance to go into too much depth with the couple, but I though it was interesting to see them discussing these issues at all. The video concludes with a short interview and demo of technology from Elliptic Labs, one of the companies at the Innovation House. It’s developing gesture-based controls, sort of like Leap Motion, but designed to integrate with tablets and smartphones.


By the way, you might notice that I usually refer to the crown prince and princess in the third person. That’s because I was told that’s the polite way to address royalty, though I suspect I still messed it up somehow.
