I understand this is not a popular opinion. But I have to say, I really don’t like hearing the voices from the audio book version of this series.

I completely agree that the voice actor deserves tons of credit. He’s one person voicing like 20 different characters. It’s impressive.

But when I read the books, I heard each character’s voice in my head. And they all sound different because the author did a great job of writing them with different voices. They didn’t all sound like one guy voicing 20 different characters.

For me, the audio book voices are all too much the same.

I dig this idea. I love using the few text-based UIs that I’ve interacted with.

The paper itself has a really well put together video explaining the situation. It also has a real-time shot of the ant being slung upwards very fast.

Thanks for the link.

Oh wow! I totally forgot about this! I found this gallery years ago. I took a shot at coding the “Substrate” family of images in Processing. It was super fun and the results were beautiful.

Thanks for sharing this!
