How to extract, email, tweet, use an audio file sent via text or sms from an iphone

Ivan — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 13:00:00 +0000

I just figured out how to access an audio message received as an attachment via a text message or SMS on an iPhone.

while the text is visible in the Messages app, click “Edit” at the top right of the screen.
Select the text with the attached Memo
at the bottom of the screen you will now have the option to “Forward” the message.
Email it to yourself or post it to your chirbit account to audio tweet it.

The audio will be attached to your email as a .amr file [It is converted to .amr from .m4a, the messages' original format] .amr seems to be more compatible with most other phones.
I am going to test uploading the file to chirbit. I am guessing it should work. Instead of emailing it to the chirbit-post@chirbit.com address, you would email it to amr-post@chirbit.com with your 4 number pin in the beginning of the message body. I’ll update this post later with my test, and with some photos.

Building a better mouse trap in 3D – part 1

Ivan — Sat, 16 Oct 2010 15:50:01 +0000

I am building this for a demo video of the NeverMiss rat trap. I am building the trap in 3D Studio Max, and rendering in MetalRay. It is still in an early stage, but I wanted to track my progress.
These renders show the main mechanics of the trap, the loading cone is used to set the trap.

I am now working on the trap casing which is a very organic shape, so I am brushing up on my nurbs skillz.

Black Widow on my freakin’ porch!

Ivan — Fri, 15 Oct 2010 01:50:37 +0000

We found this Black Widow spider on our porch today!

I’ve never seen one so close, at least not without glass between us.

It was surprisingly beautiful.

I felt compelled to give it a death metal soundtrack.
