Kevin's kid-sized Mega Man costume in-progress is looking impressive - in particular, the megabuster/gun light effects. -

The Mega Buster was another important part of the costume... I could have just done two gloves, but that would have been lame. Anyways, I liked Mr Wilsons idea of using tupperware for the construction, I just decided to take it to the next level. Read on for my steps and final product.

Sebastian's work interfacing with old Sega hardware for sound synthesis seems to be paying off - and the results sound quite nice -

In this video, the Sega Mega Drive II is controlled via the MIDI keyboard controller. Various parameters can be controlled from the keyboard, as one can hear in the video.

Defective Yeti (Matthew Baldwin, one of my favorite bloggers, funny and smart) has once again graced his faithful readers with a three part review of Halloween games - the first post is about zombie games. I think it's neat that one of them, Zombie in my Pocket, is a print-and-play.

Last Night on Earth: The Zombie Game: Though a relatively recent addition to the genre (it came out last year), the growing consensus is that this is the best zombie game on the market. LNoE puts some players in the role of Heroes and the rest as Zombies, fighting tooth and nail (and, of course, chainsaw) in the heart of a small town. The best thing about LNoE is it's replayability: the game comes with five different scenarios (with more available online), each of the playable Heroes is unique (the Hot Nurse can heal, the Sheriff always has a revolver, etc.), and the rulebook includes an "Advanced" section in case the basic game just doesn't include enough dynamite for your liking. Plus, an expansion was just released, ensuring enough variability for many Halloweens to come.

All three parts are up - zombies are here, vampires and witches here, and "miscellaneous malevolence" here.

"Interference Laser Games" is an interactive game that is controlled by a laser pointer and can be aimed at any surface that the game is projected on. Check out the video to see this working with games rannging from space invaders to pong. Pretty cool, although it's pretty much the same as using a mouse minus the tactile feedback.

Science writer (and science tattoo gallery curator) Carl Zimmer recently wrote an article for The New York Times about the science of Spore. He's also linked to this video from Seed of a conversation between astrobiologist Jill Tarter and Spore creator Will Wright. Here's a print version of the conversation.

CCTV's hit history program "Lecture Room" has helped Chinese culture find a shortcut to Rome in a way, says Lao Yu, a Beijing Youth Daily critic. The lecture room, originally a place to kill time, has now become a holy land for spreading the Chinese classics.

In famous writer Yu Qiuyu, Chinese culture has found its churchman. The churchman, in turn, has also discovered culture. Those who buy classical literary pieces tend to do it just for decoration. They would rather wait for the appearance of a "churchman" than read the novels themselves. Liu Xinwu is a good churchman for "A Dream of Red Mansions"," Yi Zhongtian for "Three Kingdoms" and Kong Qingdong for" Lu Xun."

"The emergence of cultural churchmen changes the way of spreading Chinese culture. I call those who give lectures the "cultural nursemaid".They have to eat the 'grass' of culture, then feed the students with their milk," said Lao Yu.

The reasons for "cultural nursemaid" can be concluded as follows.

1. The result of years of cultural faults. The storm-like revolutions in China has prevented inheriting Chinese culture directly.

2.Utilitarianism. In an English-dominant and money-valuing society, Chinese culture is neglected. When national culture characters are blurred,the instinct of needing Chinse culture rebounds.

3. Long-term seclusion from culture. The eroding interest in reading makes it hard to understand what our ancestors told us. It's necessary to popularize the classics again.

4. Lack of patience. In a fast-speed soceity, people have no time and patience to absorb old and new ideas.

The "cultural nursemaid" spead the glamor of Chinese culture in their own way. They have narrowed the gap between ordinary people and traditional Chinese culture.
