Sword Art Online, Accel World, real life possibilities and controversy

If you watched Accel World (AW) and Sword Art Online (SAO) you must be familiar with terms like NerveGear, AMUSphere, Neuro Linker, Full Dive etc. This kind of concept is already started in real life like NeuroWear (a pair of wearable nekomimi twiches according to your mood) and brain-wave controlled robot as far as I know. In scientific view, this kind of concept devices is basically hacking into your brain; adding stimuli directly to your brain, phising data from your brain and also DDoS-ing (in other terms, blocking) your brain signal to your body. But the real current research still stuck only in one part that is receiving the data, not sending data to brain.

Before we go anywhere further, let's recap what AW and SAO is all about.

Malaysia's Bon Odori 2012

don, don, don!

With the event as listed before ends for this month, I want to highlight about one of the most anticipating event of the month which is Malaysia's Bon Odori 2012 organized by the Japan Club of  Kuala Lumpur and the Embassy of Japan in Malaysia in cooperation with the Alumni Look East Policy Society (Kelab Alumni Dasar Pandang ke Timur by UM I guess...), Japan Graduates Association of Kuala Lumpur, The Japanese Chamber of Trade and Industry Malaysia, Selangor State Investment Center Berhad and Tourism Malaysia. (Phew, that's a lot of sponsors!).

As this is the first Bon Odori I'm participating, I'm pretty much prepared for everything, from borrowing a DSLR, planning for transportation, financial budgeting to buying a second-hand Yukata to make sure that I will enjoy the first Bon Odori in my life. (Achievement Unlocked!)

Pepakura Weekend!

Yukkuri shite ne!

Have you ever wanted to have a figure but you can't because of the financial problems. Don't worry, you can make a  pepakura (paper craft). Basically pepakura is made from a hard paper (usually 230gsm) that later will be formed into a model.

Last weekend, I have made a Black★Rock Shooter pepakura (the pepakura template and instructions can be downloaded here)
Basic items that you'll need for doing any pepakura:

• Digital Paper of thickness of 230 gsm
• Craft Knife
• Cutting Mat
• PVA / white glue
