Check out "The Silent City"

February 19, 2007 by Stefan Didak 1 Comment
The Silent City

Oscar nominated artist Ruairi Robinson has posted the full version of his live action short film, “The Silent City” for all to see. Ruairi wrote, directed, edited, and storyboarded the entire film and has done 95% of the visual effects (which, as usual, are stunning). The film stars Don Wycherley (from Batchelors Walk), Cillian Murphy (28 Days, Later, Sunshine, Batman Begins, Breakfast on Pluto), and Garvan McGrath. Besides the high definition video, make sure you check out some of the visual effects wizardry performed by Ruairi by checking out the before and after shots. And while you’re at it, check out the humorous FAQ that is featured on his website. A little word of warning… graphic detail not suitable for children and strong language will be found anywhere in the vicinity of anything remotely related to Ruairi. But that’s the way we know and like Ruairi and we hope he never changes that edge.

Battle of the Offices : Ballmer vs. Didak

February 8, 2007 by Stefan Didak 15 Comments
Steve Ballmer's Office

Someone just sent me a link explaining that over in Russia there is a competition going whereby my Home Office is being compared with that of Microsoft’s Steve Ballmer. Unfortunately I can’t read a single word of Russian so I’ve got no clue what the battle of the offices is about but I thought it was rather hillarious! See for yourself! There are, of course, other people who fell for the Russian joke and actually do think that this is Mr. Ballmer’s office. Unfortunately (for Steve!), he probably wouldn’t feel very much at home in my office… there are computers here that run Linux, you see. That might be too much to handle and cope with.

Surge in Traffic and Troops

February 3, 2007 by Stefan Didak 12 Comments
Web Statistics

Today I noticed, while looking at the web logs, that there has been a tremendous increase in traffic generated by the Home Office and FAQ pages. I knew that for some reason it has been linked to a lot and draws a steady number of visitors but the traffic over the past few days is off the scale. Just over a 24 hour period of Feb 01 to Feb 02 the logs show a total of 19.355MB got served. 19GB of traffic? Wow. Most of the traffic didn’t show its origins so I’m not clear on that. Two weeks ago some 4.5GB was served mostly to visitors from Poland (all the *.pl domains in the log) but as of the past two days traffic is coming from all over the globe. Maybe I should start a reverse tracking page that automatically keeps a list of all the incoming links.

Consolidating scattered Content

December 23, 2006 by Stefan Didak 2 Comments
Stefan Didak Home Office Version 6

I’ve decided to consolidate some of the old content into my new site. Over the years a lot of content has been in various places and it’s rather hard to keep track of it all. Links to the old material should still work as well, though you will get redirected to the new personal site.
