DIY kindle scanner from peter purgathofer on Vimeo.
Long ago, in the days of BBS there were 18 pages in the Internet world, and the average download speed was equivalent to 4G Live in downtown Rio was not simply seek information online and I had forgotten my work in the Perl . Needed to run a sort on a script, and the lack of command list, I decided to remember the old school and wrote a routine itself. It took hours to sort the list, but it worked.
The next day checked and the command to give a sort Perl was … SORT.
Still not felt playing time off was a good experiment programming, exercising muscles old. Already the case above, I have my doubts.
Citizen shielded design with the nickname of art. He says it’s an installation, not something practical. In theory it is a way to circumvent the DRM from Amazon, photographing each page of a book on Kindle, sending a service of OCR, scanning and repeating the process.
Cool, but circumvent the DRM in the most inefficient possible is a good message? Would not it be nice to show books “pirates” on Kindle, along with legitimate copies on paper, on the shelf, generating a discussion far more complex and productive?
If everyone pirateasse films going home after the session and making animated versions of stories or reenacted, the legal arm of the MPAA shut for lack of work.
This project instead of waking waking questioning “yeah, so what?” and I can only find that even as art, has failed.
