Anime Wallpaper Biography
Anime Wallpaper is the enigmatic onstage existence of Oakland music addict Eric Frederic. In another life, he fronts a prog-rock powerhouse (indie stalwarts Facing New York), but in this one, he's a pop-pushing kingpin as interested in art as artifice. The Wallpaper project began in early 2005 as tweaked satire, Frederic funneling his earliest influences (P-Funk, New Jack, East Bay rap) into two EPs of diced, digital beats and lyrics caricaturing the pop vernacular. But as the Hyphy hip-hop movement crested in Frederic's backyard, something changed. "I saw that classic Bay Area sound resurfacing," he says, "that same psychedelic, drippy, care-free, funky approach that reigned from Sly Stone to Digital Underground." He needed to pay tribute, and in a hail of house parties and homemade discs,Anime Wallpaper was reborn as Ricky Reed, Frederic's disco-smashing doppelganger. This glitz 'n' grit champion of the groove has since become a gilded name in the underground, wooing crowds with a computerized croon, live reinventions of R&B classics, and tales of excess in the Information Age. Live, Anime Wallpaper is joined by Arjun Singh on drums. They have blown spots alongside such notables as Subtle, Darondo, LA Riots, Electric Soft Parade, and Nino Moschella.
Ramanaidu Daggubati, more popular known as Rana, is a Telugu film actor. He is the son of popular producer D. Suresh Babu, the grandson of D. Ramanaidu and the nephew of actor Venkatesh. He is the nephew of Nagarjuna Akkineni, and his cousin is also a movie star known as Naga Chaitanya.
He made his film debut with Leader written and directed by Sekhar Kammula, which hit the theaters on 19th February 2010
Before embarking on an acting career, Rana was a successful Digital Post entrepreneur, accredited with having transformed the evolution of the postproduction landscape in South India. Having identified an emerging need for digital services he established DI and state-of-art postproduction technologies through his company, Spirit Media.
After the success of Spirit Media, Rana underwent intensive training in acting. After his uncle, Telugu superstar Venkatesh, Rana hopes to carry on the family legacy, not just behind the camera but in front of it as well. His debut performance in his current film ‘Leader’ directed by Sekhar Kammula established himself as an accomplished actor.
Remember the end of Michael Jackson's 1991 music video "Black or White" in which a series of different faces morph into one other? Now you can create the same effect at home with your own digital photo collection.
New software pulls all the photos of a specific person from a collection of tagged photos, analyses them for similarity of expression and head position, and links them in an animated movie. The final product can turn a smile into a frown or show how a person has aged over time.
"We can easily summarise a person's life in photos," says Ira Kemelmacher-Shlizerman, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Washington who led the study. One example shows a girl growing from birth to age 20 in 2 minutes.
For traditional morphing used in Jackson's music video, each photo needs to be carefully marked to ensure a smooth conversion. A mouth pixel on the first photo must remain a mouth pixel in the second. And the computer creates the moving transitions from one photo to the next.
This new software uses existing photos to transition between the two images. It chooses each photo in the animated sequence based on its similarity to the previous image, while moving incrementally toward the person's head position and facial expression in the final photo. With collection of several hundred or thousand images, there are to be plenty of shots that capture a range of expressions.
Kemelmacher-Shlizerman will present this work in a paper at SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group on Graphics and Interactive Techniques), a conference in Vancouver, Canada, next week.
A version of this software is now available in Picasa, a photo-hosting site run by Google, as a feature called Face Movie. This application is simplified to speed playback and doesn't display the photos chronologically.
