Use Quicktime to make screen recording like Fraps

Fraps will be used to make PC Time Lapse animation

Download Fraps here

Fyre UK rocks!

Elijah is inspired by Fyre Uk's time lapse animation, and is going to make his own time lapse animation sequence in Mine Craft for the opening credits of 'World of PieCraft'.......possibly building a large pie!

elijah thought that the group could do an abridged

How to Make a $5 Mobile Phone Projector

Exploring Senses has a new member to its tech, Louis D'Aboville has a few tricks up his wizard sleeve in terms, and will be helping Hannah and myself deliver lots of DIY Cultures activities at the mighty BYC night starting Friday 8th February 2013.

The picture above of the $5 dollar mobile, was noted by Louis, who agrees these kind of  steps are in the right direction, cheap simple solutions, for all to enjoy!

ES would like to invite all you budding young creatives to rock up to DIY Cultures, to play with technology, mixing the lo-fi, with the hi-tech to make some fun!!: )

Big thanks to 'Make:' website for the image, check their site out its amazing......so many fun things to try out.........add them to your permanent list if things to do, and continue to do...! : )
