![]() ![]() Since then, the Pro Tools platform has continued to grow and cement itself as the most widely used DAW in professional Studios around the world. It was a great match-up, as Avid was already highly regarded for its professional video editing tools. At this point, the digital revolution was really starting to take off and Pro Tools became the DAW of choice for many professionals in the studio, replacing conventional recording hardware.ĭigidesign was acquired by Avid in 1995. The first version of Pro Tools was released in 2001, and offered a massive 4 tracks of audio! They soon added a sequencer and more tracks and by 1997 they had eventually reached 24-bit with 28 tracks. Over the years, both Pro Tools and Sibelius have won major accolades including a Grammy award. Avid's ethos is to create tools that help creators tell stories, whether in audio, video or on a score. ![]() They are still the same brand that has been building and nurturing 2 of the top music software packages, Pro Tools and Sibelius for many years.

The tuning forks correspond in the following way. Addiction and trauma can and does push one into alternate realities, and these tuning forks can be used to restore balance. So you can see from the 5/3 tuning fork, to the 34/21 tuning fork, there is not a large difference between the Hz frequency of the forks, and a visual inspection of the forks also shows you that the forks are not too different in size, and it is because the distance in a golden ration spiral quickly decreases.Įach tuning fork corresponds with a state of reality or being as well, which is why these tuning forks are so helpful in treating addiction and trauma. The Tuning Forks in the Fibonacci scale, based off of or starting with 256 Hz are as follows: Since the Fibonacci scale follows a spiral pattern, the interval between the fibonacci ratio and corresponding frequencies quickly decreases, just like the space in a shell or a golden ratio spiral quickly becomes smaller and smaller. The more common sets of Fibonacci tuners follow the ratio derived from the sequence. So that set or pair is an exception to what I am discussing here. You can see the Frequency and Ratio of each tuning fork in the commonly available Fibonacci sets in the picture above.Īs a side note, Biofield Tuning sells a set or pair of Fibonacci tuning forks that do not follow the frequency laid out in the illustration, but the pair instead matches the 11th and 12th position of the sequence. ![]() Most of the Fibonacci tuning fork sets available in the market today are based in or start with the 256 Hz Frequency, which is labeled 1/1. This sequence of frequency is aimed at healing trauma and addictions. The Fibonacci Tuning fork set is based off the mathematics of the golden ratio, Phi or spiral sequence.

To ensure your colors' vibrancy lasts, work on our acid-free watercolor paper. How do you do it so effortlessly? I’ve watched many of your videos and I can’t seem to get it. ![]() If I use a single colour, the outcome is better (still blotches) but not as unnatural as a mixture of colors. ![]() I’ve also tried on the stillman and birn beta series which is even worst as this book can’t take layers of water. I’m using the global arts sketchbook and Daniel smith paints. I’m trying to mix a few colors, for example in order from top to bottom new gamboge, perylene red and Payne’s grey for a sky. When I do directly on paper, I find that there are blotches and the paint is not cohesive. When doing wet on wet, I find the paper gets too wet and the paint is diluted too much and the paint when on paper looks grainy. I’ve tried wet on wet or directly on the paper. but each time I do the background, it looks blotchy and not integrated. I’m not sure whether it’s the paper, or the paint or the technique, probably the latter. I like how the colours turn out on the paper.Ĭan you please do a video on how to paint sky backgrounds. The paper absorbs water well enough but I do not recommend heavy washes because this is after all not 100% cotton. The sketchbook opens to quite wide and it will have an even wider format with the Pocket Panorama size.Ģ00GSM isn't exactly thick so there's definitely some warping when you apply lots of water. I'm used Daniel Smith watercolour paints for all these sketches. Granulating pigments work well with the paper. The white paper will make colours more striking. I finished the whole book during a 7-day vacation in Hanoi, Vietnam. That's the hand-book vs the travelogue watercolour sketchbook. The stitching is good and you can open the sketchbook flat. The coldpress paper has a slight texture that works well with watercolour. The pages are white as compared to their hand-book sketchbooks which is off-white creamy. ![]() It's almost similar in size to the popular 5x8.25in Moleskine watercolour album (72 pages). The travelogue watercolour sketchbook comes in five sizes: Right at the back cover is a plastic pocket that you can use to put stuff like namecards, paper, etc. I like that both surface are almost of similar texture which this means you can get consistent results for your washes when drawing across pages. There's no mention of the cotton content. Inside, there are 60 pages of white, acid-free, 200GSM coldpress watercolour paper. ![]() Mine had some stray strands coming out already, similar to my experience with the Hand-book sketchbook. The clothed rubber band holding the covers together is not very durable. It seems to only come in this light grey colour. The cover is bound in natural linen that feels much tougher compared to the cloth of their Hand-book sketchbooks. logue is the name you use when you don't want your travelogue sketchbook to be found when people search for "travelogue".logue series watercolor journal on the GAM website.It's called the Watercolor Book on Amazon, and the trav This is one of the several sketching books by Global Art Materials (GAM), a manufacturer who also makes a bunch of other art materials. ![]() ![]() ![]() Sure, it’s still $50 more expensive than the cheapest GTX 1660 cards, but there’s a chance you’ll find yourself itching to upgrade again in the near future if you opt for the 2019 card.īefore any entry-level players reach for their pitchforks, I’m not trying to dunk on the GTX 1660, nor am I saying it’s a bad GPU. The blue team’s debut card initially suffered from quirky drivers at launch, but the Alchemist has gone from strength to strength since it arrived last year. Price is undeniably a strong reason to still pick up a GTX 1660, but if it were me building a cheap rig in 2023, I’d consider an Intel Arc graphics card instead.įor $219.99, you can grab an Intel Arc A750 with 8GB VRAM on Amazon, and it should fare better at running upcoming games like Starfield. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying I think you pay $100 more for an RTX 3060, and while you can get an RTX 4060 for $299, it’s still a lot to spend on a budget build. I'm hesitant to advise against buying a GTX 1660 in 2023 outright, but I'd strongly suggest taking prices across the board into consideration. Then there is the one in 6-7 logbooks where you get a boss, and drop 25-35 Burial Medallions from it alone, and end up with several ex worth of profit.(Image credit: Asus) Should you buy a GTX 1660 in 2023? The chests are bait 95% of the time, and are only viable when when there are no Runic Monster Quantity buffs, and even then you should still try to get as many Runic Monsters as possible. ![]() Then you need to path directly towards all the quantity remnant and then get as many Runic Monsters afterwards as possible. When you set up the actual explosions, first look at the remnants for "+40% item quantity from Runic Monsters" or the very rare "Double Runic Monsters". You can also choose to split the logbook if it is a really good one. Then you need to alch/scour it until you get at least +70% quantity. The Burial Medallions from the Knight logbooks are worth 10-11c each in bulk.īut you can actually make even more from them if you use them yourself (this requires the untradeable Dannig currency)ĭue to this you need to use Blessed Orbs on your Logbooks to make the good mods the best they can get (increased amount of Runic Monsters is the best one). ![]() It is only the expedition reroll currency that matters.

Stuart Russell is professor of computer science at the University of California, and was a sponsor of the 2017 film, which has now been viewed more than 75 million times. Slaughterbots, of course, is not a documentary. ![]() Pretty terrifying: a small, inexpensive drone using facial recognition to select and kill a target, free from any direct human control.Ī still from the short film, showing a human target in the crosshairs of the fictional microdroneĬredit: Slaughterbots/The Future of Life Institute “That little bang,” we are told, “is enough to penetrate the skull and destroy the contents.” He throws it into the air, whereupon it swiftly recovers its orientation and charges like a bolt of lightning at a nearby mannequin, blowing a small hole in its forehead. He then reveals that inside the tiny four-rotored drone, which has by now landed gently in his hand, is three grams of “shaped” explosive. He goes on: “Just like any mobile device these days, it has cameras and sensors, and just like your phones and social media apps, it does facial recognition.” “Its processor can react 100 times faster than a human.” In other words, it controls itself. The best part? “It’s all AI,” the presenter says smugly, in the film. Even when he didn’t try, it seemed to dance in the air, apparently displaying its “stochastic motion” anti-sniper function. The audience laughed and clapped as the machine playfully dodged the presenter’s attempts to grab it. ![]() Slaughterbots – an award-winning short film from the Future of Life Institute – portrayed a fictionalised slick, Steve Jobs-style tech presentation introducing a microdrone small enough to fit in the palm of your hand. In 2017 a short film was premiered at a United Nations diplomatic conference in Geneva which, to put it mildly, ruffled some feathers. In short, it cannot think for itself and it cannot kill. Why? Because it ignores the fact that the Hornet still requires a soldier to put him or herself in danger by getting close enough to the enemy (less than 2km) to pilot it into position, and that once there the drone can only act passively, as a reconnaissance tool. But even a lowly computer science graduate student would roll their eyes at that. To illustrate the point, it is worth understanding what systems like Black Hornet cannot do.Īnnouncing the UK’s aid package, Defence Secretary Ben Wallace described them as “cutting-edge”. And if the machines can help technologically advanced nations like the West and its allies win battles while sparing their troops, what’s not to like? In short, drones are having a very good war. ![]() The invaders feel hunted, spending as much time looking up as forward. Intelligence suggests this has been somewhat bad for morale. It is now commonplace to go onto Twitter and see footage of an adapted drone, which last year might have filmed your wedding, dropping a grenade onto a bivouac of sleeping Russian infantry, or through the hatch of a tank. The first major war to be played out in real-time on social media, the conflict has sparked a small revolution in drone innovation, with commercial and domestic models – many of them donated by the West – hacked and modified to deliver lethal force. Ukraine in particular offers a very public demonstration of their versatility – and a glimpse of the future. Just as in civilian life we will shortly be using small drones to deliver our packages, militaries are now finding uses for them that a few short decades ago would have been written off as science fiction. “That might have been selecting the best helicopter drop-off points for soldiers assaulting a position, or talking other assets on to potential threats.” “The drones I worked with allowed us to make decisions based on the best available real-time information,” he says.

Special bandages are used by food preparation workers. Some bandages, especially those designed for children, may come in a wide variety of colors or may feature cartoon characters. This has led to greater support for pharmaceutical companies that manufacture these bandages in a variety of skin tones.

The absorbent pad is often made of cotton, and there is sometimes a thin, porous-polymer coating over the pad, to keep it from sticking to the wound.
