SHADOW – Community of Dreamers

Posted: 19 Sep 2013 05:30 PM PDT

shadow community of dreamers sm SHADOW   Community of Dreamers

The brain is a highly complex organ composed of neurons that generate electrical signals constantly, even while we sleep. And when we sleep, our minds are freed from the limits of reality. Sadly, once we wake up, 95% of those thoughts have faded and we are left with a faint reminder of those dreams.

SHADOW | Community of Dreamers believes that we as a society have the power to access our subconsciousness and harness that creativity for the greater good. Inspired by the concept of dreaming, Hunter Lee Soik and his team of developers have created a mobile phone app designed to help users record their dreams and share them with other users across the globe. Think of it as a dream database that functions to illuminate the interconnectedness of our subconscious minds.

At its core, the SHADOW app works like an alarm clock that wakes users up with an escalating sound to pull them out of their dreams. Once awake, users are prompted to record their dreams via voice, text, or questions. The whole process takes less than 5 minutes and is an ingenious way of processing the symbols and experiences from our dreams into profound insights about who we are as a people.

If you’d like to support this idea, click here to donate. After all, in the words of John Lennon, “A dream we dream alone is only a dream, but a dream we dream together can be a reality.”

blackberry z30 unveiled BlackBerry Z30   Officially Unveiled

In the face of increasingly dwindling market share, as well as reports that the company is “exploring strategic alternatives” (meaning the board is looking to sell off the company), BlackBerry has announced the launch of the Z30, the successor to the brand’s all-touch Z10. Measuring 140.7mm x 72mm x 9.4mm, the device packs a 5-inch 1,280 x 720 Super AMOLED display, stereo speakers, and the latest version the 10 operating system. Under the hood, one finds 1.7 GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro chip, 2GB RAM, Adreno 320 GPU and 16GB of storage. It’s all powered by a 2,880mAh battery, which is said to last 25 hours of “mixed use.” The Z30 will support 4G LTE, dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0 and NFC, with a Paratek Antenna for better reception in low-signal areas. The Z30 is set launch next week in the UK and the Middle East, with a wider release scheduled for the holiday season.

With its long body, fast-back rear, and 2393cc OHC inline-6 engine, the Nissan Safari Rally Z dominated not only the road, but also the rally races during it short, but sweet run in the early 1970′s. Ever since its founding in 2006, the Restoration Club has made it a habit to bring back classic cars back to life and this Fairlady Z (aka Datsun 240Z) is prime for the picking. Led by a 60-member strong volunteer army from ’s R&D department, this dedicated group’s sole mission is to use their free time to see ’s historic racecars fully operational again, with the Rally Z on-tap to be fully operational again by December 2013. This is just the latest in a long-line of successful projects, which includes the 1964 Skyline racecar and 1947 Tama electric vehicle. Until then see pictures of the Safari Rally Z as well as the 1972 Fairlady 240Z in all their original glory after the click.
