The Virtual Autopsy Table
Have a look at the inside of a human being. In this installation, with the help of an easy to use multi touch interface, the user can freely interact with stunning volumetric 3D datasets of real scanned human bodies. The datasets in this demo have been created with state of the art techniques within medical imaging; Dual Energy Computed Tomography and by using new methods in the field of Magnetic Resonance Imaging. The data has been imported straight from the scanners and has not been edited or modified before rendering, what you see is not a 3D model, its a full volumetric description of a human body. The visualization techniques used in this table is already utilized successfully as a compliment to the conventional autopsy. Apart from avoiding cutting in the body the medical experts, such as coroners, can see things that are difficult to discover in a conventional autopsy. Furthermore, the technique opens up for new opportunities in countries where autopsies are not accepted due to cultural reasons. The technique will revolutionize the traditional health care in many areas. The technique can also, for educational purposes, be used in education environments and in public institutions such as museums, Science and Technology centers. The Virtual Autopsy Table is developed by Norrköping Visualization Centre in collaboration with CMIV cmiv.liu.se The installation is based on research results from CMIV, VITA at Linköping University, Sweden and Swedish National Board of …

Rush Subdivisions – Multi-Nation Virtual Band Cover/Collaboration
This is a cover of the opening track, Subdivisions, of the 1982 album, Signals. It was made by the co-ordinated effort of four musicians spread over four different countries, Canada, The Netherlands, Germany and the USA. The cover you hear has a backing track switched in (at a very low level) during the vocals only, we felt that without the vocals the overall effect of the video itself wasn’t as good as that with vocals. Although we realise we will never be able to completely emulate the fantastic music produced by the source of our inspiration (Rush), we sincerely hope you enjoy our cover and that it also inspires you to go out and buy the CD and/or pick up an instrument and learn the song for yourself. Anyone who is inspired by this video, please leave a comment and let the world know. Many thanks for taking the time to read this short notice. Please feel free to visit our YouTube channel by clicking on the VirtuallyRush name, and from there to visit our individual channels for more great videos related to instruction on how to play the individual instrument parts for many songs.

Sound Design Tutorial: Using Native Instruments’ Reaktor To Build Virtual Instruments
More info – bit.ly Dubspot Electronic Music Production and Sound Design Instructor Evan Sutton explains how to make basic connections and building a subtractive synthesizer using Native Instruments Reaktor’s Built In Modules in this new tutorial. There are many levels to Reaktor’s hierarchy. In the last tutorial, we spent most of our time on the Instrument level, making small changes and swapping out effects. If you missed the first tutorial, you can find it here: bit.ly In the second installment, we’ll go even deeper and build our own instrument from the ground up. We’ll be using Reaktor’s Built In Modules, which are tools that range from simple math to complex signal processors. Many of these modules are the basic tools used in modular synthesis. We’ll use these to build a simple synthesizer with one oscillator and an amplitude envelope. Remember to keep the volume down while you’re setting up your modules. It’s important to explore basic signal flow in Reaktor. There are infinite possibilities for experimentation, but these concepts are the starting point for building larger and more complex ensembles.
