Stardust Movie Aug. 10th

Stardust Movie

Just saw the preview for Stardust when I went to see Next. Based on Neil Gaiman’s novel of the same name and stars Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer. It’s been a while since I read that novel but the plot of the movie seems to be the same as that of the book. However, the trailer is portraying Stardust as an action flick, which is not at all the way I remember it. Well, neither is Harry Potter, but that is the Hollywood formula. Maybe if this works out, the Sandman movie will become more than a pipe dream.

What is the sound of Pi?

Pi played on the piano via Digg

The keys on a piano are assigned values of 0 – 9 correspond to the digits in the number Pi. The piano is then programmed to play Pi and since Pi is an irrational number, there is no repeating pattern. Sounds like a retro 8-bit video game tune. There’s no rythym and the music is played in a major key.
