2:55 - "What's driving the future is, the human intellect." Ahh yes, the halcyon days of 2008 when you could still suggest such a thing with a straight face.
Please help! Where can I buy this documentary?! Please send me a link or a website where it works on syd meads website it does not work And this too: The techniques of syd mead 1-4 Please reply
@@DPJim thank you so much! the links i keep finding lead to a broken old page from Syd Mead's webpage where you can buy the DVD, i think, it was scattered and you can barely make up anything on it.
@@7uc4s maybe i'm not understanding correcly? could you explain? " log·a·rith·mic /ˌlôɡəˈriT͟Hmik,ˌläɡəˈriT͟Hmik/ Learn to pronounce adjective relating to or expressed in terms of logarithms. (of a scale) constructed so that successive points along an axis, or graduations which are an equal distance apart, represent values which are in an equal ratio. "the scale is logarithmic, so pH 2 is ten times more acidic than pH 3" (of a curve) forming a straight line when plotted on a logarithmic scale; exponential."
@@FPVREVIEWS Exponentiation is an operator that raises a "power to a number", as: 2^3 -> _it's two raised to the third power,_ 2*2*2 = 8, therefore 2^3 = 8. In the other hand, logarithm is an operator that *asks for the exponent* 'y' in which when the base 'b' is raised to the power 'y' produces the number 'x'. So, the logarithm of *x* in base *b* is equal to *y* --> logb(x)=y. To understand this, log2(8) = 3 --> logarithm base two of eight is three, i.e. the exponential needed to be raised to number 2 that produces the value 8 is the exponent 3, because 2^3 = 8 So... to find out log2(8) = ? ---> you need to ask 2^? = 8 "to which power number two needs to be raised in order to produce the value equals eight? The answer is three, thar is the answer for log2(8) [sorry my english I'm brazilian]
damn just found out about this guy and realised he's responsible for a lot of my taste in futuristic sci-fi aesthetics, which partially reflects back into music I make
RIP Syd. You were my visual guide into science fiction and fantasy. Watching "Blade Runner" was a transformative experience. You were were a large and essential part of why that was so. Your art, imagination and vision were gifts to all of us. My condolences to his family and friends.
Got a whole new respect for Syd after hearing him talk about this. Boy, I hope he makes it to "escape velocity." C'mon Syd! You show us how marvelous the future can be; stay in the game!
