Q***** A wonderful news, Thanks and Best regards,lady!
More about it here: http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/cndy/2012-11/03/content_15871515.htm
A technology show in Beijing makes it fun to turn blue. Zhang Zixuan walks the aisles for the latest flights of fancy.
A woman in the audience stands in front of a screen, which has captured her face. In a few seconds, the face gradually turns blue with a new-grown leopard print. Her nose widens and her eyes become golden.
For a moment, a human has transformed into an avatar.
The scene unfolded at the 3rd Art and Science International Exhibition that opened on Nov 1 at China Science and Technology Museum. Some 112 exhibits from 22 countries and regions that combine the charm of art and science will wow the audience until the end of the month.
Initiated by renowned physicist Tsung-dao Lee and late art master Wu Guanzhong (1919-2010), the exhibition has been held previously in 2001 and 2006. This year the theme focuses on "Information, Ecology and Wisdom".
The Avatar Morphing Station catches a lot of attention. People surround the TV-like electronic device, queuing to have an avatar look of their own.
Shi Danqing, designer of the device, holds his camera beside the crowd to take photos of transformations that intrigue him.
"Every avatar face the machine creates is unique," he says.

The machine utilizes the automatic face identification system, which is commonly used for security purposes, Shi explains. It then follows a specific algorithm to analyze the captured faces, stretch the muscles, add color and fur patterns, and then replace the eyes.
The previous version of the design was selected in 2009 by 20th Century Fox to be the outdoor interaction game to promote the movie Avatar, the designer says, who worked in the US at that time.
Now he's showing the upgraded version, "which is full of possibilities and imagination," says Shi, who now teaches at the Beijing-based Academy of Art and Design, Tsinghua University.
At another corner of the exhibition hall, designer Huang Shi is trying to make the butterfly on the screen fly to the top of the tree by using brain waves. A leaf falls down every time he blinks.
"Through a headband, the screen monitors my degree of relaxation, concentration and blink," says Huang. "When my relaxation reaches 70, the butterfly flies. The higher the score is, the higher the butterfly flies."
Huang believes all interaction between humans and machines will eventually be conducted by brain waves.
"Therefore, the work is my tribute to the future, through which I hope to arouse the audience's interest in technology," he says. Making people more relaxed is another reason he designed the technology, he adds.
At the same time, foreign designers also make their statements about art and science in various fun ways.
Dutch designer Daan Roosegaarde brings a hi-tech dress named Intimacy. The dress is made of opaque smart e-foils that can become increasingly transparent based on closeness and personal encounters with people.
The other item he presents is called Lotus, which is made of aluminum foil. When the human hand gets close to the object, the light bulb inside the foil lights up through induction. Then the bulb's light and heat will trigger the foil to unfold like a lotus blossom.
"My works connect technology with emotion, so that the creations will not be that cold," Roosegaarde says.
Another Dutch artist Theo Jansen also bears such human interest in mind. He has been obsessed with walking sculptures for 22 years.
Composed of plastic pipes and driven by wind, the sculptures with multiple feet can walk like real living beings.
Named Strandbeests - meaning sand beasts - these creatures are designed to walk on the beach. They are also able to store air pressure and use it to drive in the absence of wind. They can even change their walking path if the sand is too wet or too dry. And one species of "beast" can anchor itself into the earth if it senses a storm approaching.
"The exhibition is so vivid, which makes abstract science ap-proachable," says Liu Lu, a university student.
"The exhibition aims at revealing the inner relationship between art and science, and tries to explore the possibility of using scientific methods to express an artistic way of thinking and human interest," says Lu Xiaobo, curator of the exhibition and director of Academy of Art and Design of Tsinghua University.
