The UNITY GAIN series is a multiple award winning collection of seven poetry/video/art works by early video artist and Poetry Video pioneer Arturo Cubacub. Featuring dancer/choreographer Jan Heyn-Cubacub, who was a collaborator on most of work. Created between March 1981 and October 1986, the series includes: *BETWEEN DOTS*, 1981: An abstract dance around unity and duality."I was playing with the idea of taking the visual branch of the concrete poetry movement further by stripping the poem of its words and letters and not just of its syntax. "Between Dots" uses only abstract symbols, allowing interpretation to be as private and personal as possible. *RE-ORIENTING TRIANGLES*, 1981: More explorations in concrete poetry video. *TURNING BREATH*, 1981: video art/dance choreographed and performed by Jan Heyn-Cubacub. The Sandin Image Processor, one of the first video synthesizers, was used in real-time performance with the dance as it was being recorded. *60 FLOWERS, 70 CAPSULES, 80 DIGITS*, 1982: A personal retrospective of three decades beginning with the revolutionary fecund 60s. "I started making videos as a way to integrate the different creative disciplines I practiced - painting, photography, performance art, music, and poetry. This was the first time I used spoken poetry in my video work." *AHLUVYALIKE*, 1981: A poetic dramatization of certain emotional spaces manifested by intense love relationships. This work is considered by some historians to be the first piece produced in the Poetry Video genre. *LA CI DAREM LA MANO*, 1985: A poetic metaphor of the humorous and absurd situations brought about by peoples misinterpretation of ones idiosyncrasies. *ORBIT*, 1986: Poetry, dance, computer animation, and digital video effects are used to juxtapose constructive possibilities within our destructive tendencies. "The most important challenge of our time is to create on the same scale as we can destroy." -Gene Youngblood /// DIGITALLY RE-MASTERED AND RESTORED.

This wall-mountable salon hair steamer is CE-certified and loaded with professional functions and features. It has 750 watts of heating power and a stainless steel coil for superb steam production. It includes a tank-style, heavy-duty water reservoir with a capacity of 30 ounces on top of the steamer. The water is drawn from the reservoir into the internal heating chamber. A drain valve under the unit allows internal chamber to be emptied and flushed (only drain when unit is cool). Thermal overload circuitry turns off steamer if water level drops too low, however never allow any steamer to run dry or be operated while unattended. The controls and digital display allow easy presetting of session lengths and adjustment of power and steam level. Steamer hood is made from durable tinted acrylic and measures 11-3/4" in diameter at its opening by 11" deep. A 17" long diffuser located inside of the hood works to direct steam flow around the contours of the hood for even distribution of vapor. Three vent holes with an adjustable control provide further refinement of the steam level. Condensation is collected by the rolled lip at the lower edge of the hood; the condensate is deposited into a removable collection jar at the base of the hood. The unit is adjustable and wall-mountable. The balanced swing-arm allows the hood to extend up to 64" from the wall. Bonnet may be tilted up or down, and the hood swivels on the mounting arm so it can be positioned as desired. Due to the cantilever design of this item, professional installation by a contractor is recommended; they can determine the type of walls in your salon, what reinforcement and anchors are needed, and ensure the unit is securely connected to the swing-arm, and that the swing-arm is correctly and permanently secured to the wall bracket. Includes complete CE-certified hair steamer, grounded power cord (120 volt use only), wall-mounting bracket with swing arm, hardware package, and instructions.

Sure, Mindstorms NXT is a toy, but it is an important toy, like a piano or a chemistry set. It's one of those items that engages an imagination and possibly opens doors to new interests. Since our future is surely to be shared with robots--it's already started happening, just look at Roomba--those robots will need, at least initially, humans to program and maintain them. Those people, years from now, will likely remember their experiences with Lego Mindstorms. Out of the Box The main part of the kit is the NXT itself. It's about the size of an iPod (though a bit thicker) with a a loudspeaker, a monochrome LCD, and navigation keys on the front. This is the controller for the robot--it's brain, if you will. It has three ports on top for connecting to the servo motors and four ports on the bottom for connecting to four different sensors: Touch, Light, Sound, and Ultrasonic (see detail below). The NXT: the computer-controlled brain of the Mindstorms robot Touch Sensor: enables the robot to feel and react to its environment Sound Sensor: enables the robot to react to sound Light Sensor: can detect light and color Ultrasonic Sensor: allows the robot to measure distance and react to movement Servo Motors: ensures the robot moves with precision The set includes Ethernet-like wires for connecting all of these to the NXT, as well as software and a basic USB cable for downloading programs from your computer. Then there are all the Lego parts, hundreds of them, and most are very small. It would be a good idea to get a plastic organizer for the different parts--it would not only make construction and storage easier but also part loss less likely. Hitting the Bricks The instructions for MNXT are simple, illustrated, and they gently take the new user on an introductory path through the system. The quick start guide promises a 30-minute robot building and programing intro, though for me it was closer to 50 (I'm a little old and slow). It starts with a simple diagnostic routine which shows you how to test the function of all sensors, then proceeds to step-by-step picture instructions for building a basic first robot. It's about as complex as building a piece of Ikea furniture. Programming is the real gem in this system. It has a drag-and-drop interface using pre-programmed objects that you pull from a palette and snap to other objects. Next, I installed the software. Be sure to check the system requirements (below). The software is well-designed and very intuitive. It comes with built-in video instructions on how to create your first simple program and download it to your NXT. Bringing It To Life Programming is the real gem in this system. It has a drag-and-drop interface using pre-programmed objects that you pull from a palette and snap to other objects. Each object is configurable. For example, the Sound object brings up a sub-window that allows you to choose between a tone and a list of sound files, set the volume, set duration, and so on. Little Lego bricks between the objects reinforce the idea that building a NXT program is like building a Lego model. Programming this way is much easier than, say, creating a web page from scratch. Lego even offers a software development kit for getting deeper into the programming. Mindstorms NXT "challenges" from top: Tribot, RoboArm, and Spike. There comes a genuine thrill from seeing something you've created--even something simple and silly as my first program--come to life in a robot. It's akin to seeing yourself on TV for the first time. I played that program a dozen times. The software contains "challenges," which are similar step-by-step instructions for creating and programming more complex models, such as a robotic arm that can "perform simple tasks and react to different colors." Each challenge is divided into smaller tasks with step-by-step building, programming, and testing guides for each task. Accessing your latest program once it's downloaded to the NXT is pretty easy. Lego has set it up so that you can execute it by pressing the big orange center button four times in a row after start-up. I was surprised to find out that you don't need a computer to program the NXT. You can program directly into the NXT Program submenu. Bluetooth Ready The NXT also has built-in Bluetooth wireless technology. If your computer has Bluetooth, you can test and download programs to the NXT without connecting the USB cable--a really handy feature if you're programming a complicated dance routine and you don't want your robot getting tripped up in cables. If your phone or PDA has Bluetooth, you might be able to use your device to control the robot. Best of all, Bluetooth allows you to create a network of up to three NXT devices. Think of the possibilities: three NXTs plus three sets of blocks and sensors equals bigger, more complex robots. My one and only complaint is that I wish the sensors had more "studs," those little round parts that allows Lego bricks to interlock. --Porter B. Hall
