Are you ready for reading? Sherlock fans I just found a great website for you.





http://221bakerstreet.org/ this website brings you 48 out of the 60 stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. If you are bored of reading you can hear the stories by sound files.

There are also a couple of links to other websites. Even a podcast can be found. Not all the links are working tho. If you want to know if there is a society in your country simply go to http://221bakerstreet.org/holmes_list.html and there is a list.

Oculus Rift experience?


What could you get if you put an Oculus Rift to experience the Game of Thrones?
Laura Hudson from WIRED did. It is a demo for SXSW and part of the exhibition for the Game of Thrones (HBO). http://www.wired.com/underwire/2014/03/game-of-thrones-oculus-rift/


When I read the article it sounded to me that maybe in the future we would have those in different areas or aspects of live. We could experience much more, make a change in learning, travel, gaming, film and books.

What would it feel like if we could fly on dragons? How is it to raid with Vikings? How is it to step into the elevator of Dr. Who? Would you have the same feelings as if you where flying. Is it the same as if you are in a plane?

Landscapes would come to live. We could have more fun just put everything aside and go to Middle Earth. It would be more realistic.

You could choose to go to different places at one day. Sound is the ultimate thing here.  What if we where in a room and you watch a film you could actually feel, hear and experience the whole film. Like you were there.
