Foo Camp Movies: Celebrity Death Aikido Match
Here’s a celebrity death aikido match between Paul “Schmoo” Holman and Jeremy Borenstein.
This was shot on October 12, 2003.
Jeremy was nice enough to provide me with a little explanation:

“Pablos and I originally met because we were both training in the same
aikido dojo. This movie shows us, out of shape and out of practice
but still having fun trying to maul each other. There’s a variety of
aikido techniques more-or-less demonstrated there. Pablos takes some
nice high falls (when he leaves the ground completely for a time) and
doesn’t get hurt, which is a testament to his skill.”

“Little Movies” From Foo Camp

These are just a few little clips from Foo Camp.
The first is aptly titled Goofing Off At Foo (Small – 9MB). It’s mainly Paul “Schmoo” Holman shooting me really quick and then, after I grab the camera back, asking me not to film him and my filming him anyway, because it was just too funny. (Yes, I did ask him later if it was okay for me to put this up, because I simply do not post footage that people don’t want me to post.)
The second movie is just of the Tent City (Small – 3 MB) that people had going on in O’Reilly‘s backyard.
This footage was shot on October 12, 2003.

Second Movie From Foo Camp: “GPS Tron”

5 Replies

This movie documents several Foo Folks demonstrating and observing Dan Egnor‘s GPS Tron game. This is a game that uses wireless technology and GPS devices to play a meat space two-player running game on a field of grass. I played it. It was totally cool. (The kind of thing I could have easily played all morning if I didn’t have important videoing to do 🙂
Part 1 explains the interface and shows some players in action (one player is the game’s creator, Dan Egnor, the other is Anselm Hook).
In Part 2, Brandon Wiley and Anselm Hook give us some first hand accounts of how the game is played.
Also included in the “All” movie is a partial interview with Dan Egnor about how he built the game, its current bugs, and how he plans on addressing them.
This is from October 12, 2003.
