Here I am, bored with so much paperwork to do during the winter break that I decided to go back in time a little bit and work with hardware again. OK, it is not REALLY “working with hardware”, but at least I can remember good old times when I was riding a train for 2 [...]

Last weekend I was in Shanghai for the CISP’11 conference. A lot of people participating and the sessions were quite “OK”. I did my presentation on Sunday mornig about how people accept (or not) voices that were recreated from whispering. Too technical? I think so… Anyway, Shanghai didn’t change much. This time I didn’t go [...]

Although I have never gone further, my undergraduate [...]

Como todos já sabem, o Japão está passando por um mal bocado. E bota mal nisso. Mas como eu não sou jornalista e odeio ser repetitivo, não vou narrar tragédia aqui. Fiquem tranquilos que a familia está bem e BEM LONGE da bagunça. Pra vocês terem uma idéia: Eu estou no ponto A. As usinas [...]
