Dominic.
Curses; you have found the secret objective for all the BRRE research. We
had tried to avoid involving the Antipodes due to the thin nature of the
amber nectar as BRRs are excessive and almost too fast to measure.
For those who read the article in the Sydney Morning Herald it will be
understood that the entire project is for the purposes of animation. What
better way to get animated than consume vast quantities of beer for
experimental purposes.
I suppose there may be some new TIG'ers here so just to explain. BRRE =
Bubble Rise Rate Experiments. This is a very serious project to determine
the difference in bubble vertical transit times through beer. It involves
Quantum uncertainty theory. The more you experiment. the less easy it
becomes to determine the results.
At the IBC bar this year BRREs were well progressed and we hope for reports
from those individuals who persevered well beyond the call of nature; one
in particular, you know who you are, no names mentioned, but an ardent
promoter of shooting digitally and has been known to promote Quantel.
Our first Beer Swigging certificate (BSc) graduate from The Telecine
Internet Group University, who completed the course, Gaseous Voids in Beer,
was at IBC and may report as part of a MSc project.
New course lectures are planned for next year, including;
Monochrome Cineon files. What is so difficult? Is beer monochromatic, does
bubble diffraction change the color?
Dust & Telecines. A great combination, soon the only way to distinguish
between film and digital acquisition.
Sony HDSDI interfaces. Searching for the Holy Grail. As rare as a decent
pint of Speckled Hen.
Enrol now, the only required qualifications are a daily intake of
sufficient beer to prevent you remembering to enrol.
I wish everyone well in performing BRREs and await reports
Cheers
Peter Swinson
