![]() In the early stretches, they may mislead some into thinking the whole thing will stay on the surface, a nonsensical shaggy-dog story. The antic attitude and seemingly impromptu facetiousness may not be to all tastes. The show is never so goal-oriented not to stop for a playful digression or interlude. "Peter and the Starcatcher" also shows a strong influence of English music hall in its punning wordplay and incidental ditties (the buoyant and reminiscent music is by Wayne Barker), with a touch of Monty Python foolery in such aspects as the toss-the-cat routine and the old-style travesty drag of pirates dressed as mermaids. While by its nature a much lighter entertainment, "Peter and the Starcatcher" is in the same literate and imaginative tradition of ensemble storytelling. It's enlightening to recall Rees starred in "The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby," the Royal Shakespeare Company's epic two-part Charles Dickens adaptation that became the greatest London and Broadway sensation of the early 1980s. Yet as directed with imaginative flair by Roger Rees and Alex Timbers, the show is predominantly driven by the sheer imaginative force of a dozen players creating this fantasy world with their acting skills, ingenious staging and a few simple props resourcefully employed. Part of the fun is discovering how the show will explain elements key to "Peter Pan" - Tinker Bell, the crocodile, how Hook loses his hand, which in this version has nothing to do with the croc. Barrie's "Peter Pan" that conjures a back story for that classic: how a no-name orphan became the ageless and airborne Peter, how he joined forces with a headstrong lass named Molly (later the mother of Wendy) and how he first crossed paths with notorious pirate Black Stache, who'll become his archenemy Captain Hook.

If you want additional cars, you can purchase the blue "Katal" and the red "Rho" for $69 each. These are not preprogrammed movements - all the AI needs are certain parameters in which it can move, such as the speed of the vehicle and how fast it can steer - and it'll think of the actions on its own.īy subscribing, you are agreeing to Engadget's Terms and Privacy Policy. With these factors in place, the cars are able to determine, often within a few thousandths of a second, whether to take over, nudge, pass or block their opponents depending on the prescribed objective. The iOS app is essentially the brains of the operation and not only lets you engage in gameplay by steering the vehicle and firing weapons, but also lets you build a "character" for each car, which we'll describe shortly. Each car has a tiny camera underneath that can read and translate that information along with a couple of motors that power the rear wheels, a 50Mhz microprocessor, a power button, a multicolor status LED on top, a rechargeable battery and a Bluetooth LE radio that communicates with the phone. Underneath the black exterior of the mat is a special ink that's embedded with a positional code that tells the car where it is in relation to the track and to other vehicles. Join us after the break as we give you a tour of how it works, share our brief hands-on impressions and tell you how you can get your hands on one yourself.Īs we detailed back in June, Anki Drive is primarily made up of three components: the track mat, the car and the iOS app. They've kept pretty quiet since then, but four months later, and they're ready to reveal the final Anki Drive product to the world. ![]() It impressed Apple so much that the Cupertino company invited the team to unveil the product on the world stage at the WWDC keynote this year. ![]() Their solution was Anki Drive, a slot car racing game that utilizes artificial intelligence and machine learning so that the vehicles actually adapt and learn how to best each other on the track. As lovers of cars and video games, the group decided that a way to do this was to focus on a way to make physical toys as adaptable and as challenging as video games. The primary barrier was cost, of course, but as the price of hardware kept getting lower and as smartphones became more powerful and ubiquitous, the trio figured that the time was ripe for consumer robotics. program at Carnegie Mellon University, they noticed that a vast majority of robotics and artificial intelligence research went into government and industrial sectors, with very little of it focusing on the consumer. ![]() Six years ago, when Boris Sofman, Mark Palatucci and Hanns Tappeiner were enrolled in the robotics Ph.D. ![]() But another piece is to say okay, we’re the Walt Disney company, and we’ve created intellectual property that has a following. ![]() So when I think about network value, there’s the IP layer - do we have an analytics system that lets us understand who the user is, and monetize them over time without violating privacy rules et cetera, so that’s one piece of it. And of course Apple’s really good about policing its ecosystem - they monitor that stuff, and they force people to dial it down if it really gets in the way of the user experience or the integrity of the app store. The other thing I’ve gotten more sophisticated about is: What does it mean when you’re building a network? A year ago, that was all about boot-up interstitial and push notifications - that sort of really aggressive cross-promotional stuff. ![]() We’ve gotten more nuanced about when you make something free and when you make it paid. For Where’s My Water, we have the bulk of the distribution on the paid side at a 99 cent price point. What happens is, the platforms have evolved and gotten more sophisticated, and our understanding of how you build a community and how you price apps for optimal distribution - that’s evolved. So this will be the 17th game that we will hopefully get to number one.

They won’t let developers get users’ email addresses, and they like to manage that relationship. It’s one example of connective tissue between apps - we’re trying to connect those apps in a variety of ways. What we did there is we have a fanbase for Where’s My Water, we have a huge fanbase that follows Phineas and Ferb, probably just about the most popular television show on the air. We’re sitting at number one and number four with Where’s My Perry and Where’s My Water. Number two: build a network, or at least connective tissue between the apps. Tonight, Disney released the first new version of this preposterously successful app, Tap Tap Revenge: Tour.Įvolver.fm caught up with Tapulous and Flock founder (now Disney Mobile senior vice president and general manager) Bart Decrem to find out what we can expect from this game what it’s like working on rock ‘n roll apps within the Disney corporation and how he thinks Tap Tap Revenge will stay relevant, even as Guitar Hero and Rock Band no longer capture the public’s imagination the way they once did (interview edited for length and clarity).Įliot Van Buskirk, Evolver.fm: For starters, what have you been up to for the last couple of years at Disney, since it acquired Tapulous?īart Decrem, Disney Mobile senior vice president and general manager: Number one: build high-quality games. Despite not releasing a single game in 2011, the Tap Tap Revenge franchise remained exceedingly popular, with the number four game in iTunes. Meanwhile Tapulous was acquired by Disney.

(Remember, the iOS app store itself had only just launched during the previous month). Over 1.2 million iPhone users installed it in the first month it was available, back when that was still a ridiculously big number.

We are all at risk for developing skin cancer, and according to the American Academy of Dermatology, cases of melanoma have doubled in the past 25 to 30 years. “Our skin knows no difference between hot and cold temperatures, and UV light comes through on cloudy or overcast days,” explains Birmingham-based dermatologist, Dr. It’s important to have a sunscreen wardrobe that suits your needs for all four seasons. “Sun damage, aging, and skin cancer are never on vacation, so your SPF routine shouldn’t be either,” says Beverly Hills dermatologist, Dr. It’s true, all the amazing lotions and potions that we use won’t do much to promote healthy skin without good sun protection. ![]() A tinted sunscreen provides far more benefits than just sun protection the color base helps to even out skin tone and imparts a dewy (not greasy) finish.

No matter how much your rub it in, it never seems to absorb fully. Here’s the problem, though: Anyone who isn’t white understands the struggle of finding a sunscreen that doesn’t leave behind that ashy, ghostly finish. That means something as simple as a bug bite, pimple, or excessive sun exposure, for example, can turn on those melanocytes and set pigment production into overdrive, leading to dark spots and uneven skin tone, says Dr. the cells that produce melanin, which makes your skin tone darker).

Gone are the days when hospital systems and insurance companies were in control of the available health care options. A push from consumers for more points of access into the health care system has triggered that shift. ![]() ![]() He recalls that when he began, the clinics all operated with different names, yielding few clues “that we were all connected.” Familiar names were Five Rivers in Junction City, Atlas Physical Therapy in Eugene, and Eugene Urgent Care among them.Ī shift in the health care industry has been one of the driving forces behind the decision for Nova Health to unify its various offerings under one brand. “A nova is two stars coming together to make a brighter star,” says Nova Health’s CEO Bill Clendenen, “and so, for us, bringing primary care and urgent care together to serve our various communities - for either scheduled care or for unscheduled urgent care - those were the two lines of service coming together to provide a better solution for our patients.”Ĭlendenen has been at the helm of this local medical care company, which serves Douglas and Lane counties, for a little more than two years.
