Entry #226
- Listening to:
- Neilsen, symphony no. 3 "Symphony espansiva".
It's raining and grey today. The sky is gradually rolling past my
window, and the trees are waving in the wind. In addition to the
trees, I can see a tall metal post on top of which sits a CCTV camera.
I don't know if the camera can swivel to look in my window; whenever I
look at it it's pointing in the same direction, parallel to the wall
in which my window is. Of course, when I'm not looking at it, who
knows where it might be looking. Even the pole the camera on is
occasionally swaying a little, making very slight juddery motions, in
the wind. With luck the wind will blow me back into town on my bike.
A couple of links that I found reading David Chess:
- Amusing
Tolkien sarcasm, clearly put together by people who really do
love the books, and all the more effective for it.
- David himself: very interesting on
the Loebner prize, a competition embodying a Turing Test
like idea. The standard of the competition is still very low.
