Deadcore

Deadcore refers to the distinct alias of Matt Timmer — an aspiring DJ from Mansfield, Ohio. After 14 years on this Earth, he has developed his own sense of style, and musical taste. Also a well adapted artist. He uses mediums such as digital art, abstract art, and graphical art. His tools of the trade also include Photoshop, Cinema4D, 3D Studio Max, and Elegant Algorithm. To complete the list of his hobbies, he recentally was a proud supporter of the annual Love Parade from Berlin, Germany. Though he could not attend, he support their efforts by designing 45% of the promotional artwork. He also enjoys traditional art, in which he is at least practicing.

His musical taste, influenced by his previous hobbies, are based largely in the DJing genre. Electronic, dance. trance, acid house, rave, hardstyle, and the groove of drum and bass. Working on his Stanton STR8-150 with a Dual Pioneer/Stanton SMX-D10 mixer in the middle. He mixes, remixes, and plays the popular, and personally popular music of ours time. Using all the famous power-horses of digital audio today, including SoundForge Pro 5, Sony ACID Pro, Fruityloops, and some smaller applications. Like Master-Zap's Stomper, and Micromans DrumSync II. You can also find him programming and developing in his free time.

An avid user of C++, Matt has been a contributor to a various number of projects. Including the Mozilla Foundation, Amigo OS, multiple linux distros, and many other smaller applications. He is also fluent in Java, Python, PHP, and Delphi. Once creating a Artificial Life simulator — using a modified algorithm from mathematician Mark Nelwon. An organic organism with a single cell, over a period of time developes and duplicates into multiple cells. You (the user) can control different elements in the environment. And move the cells into different locations. Aswell as place the threat of bacteria, disease, and virual threats. Written in Compact C# for Windows, OSX, Linux, Amigo SSX II, and BSD.

Interest

After learning the advance abilities of programming, Matt decided to try his skill at writing valued applications. Such as his 'Artificial Life Simulator' or ALS project. Using a popular sequence and intelligence algorithm, also used in Gene Pool, Bird, and spoken about in Khaled's Blog. The environment in this program, included a microscopic organism slide. Aswell as a African jungle scenario, meaning the environments in which to study where interchangeable. The user, had the status of, for lack of a better work, Godlike being. You can control the complete environment, to see the outcome of each organism. In the cellular slide you may change the temperature, bacteria count, and virual threats. Aswell as in the jungle scene, you can change the weather, season, animal inhabitants and predator-prey status and relationship. Giving you complete control of the environment, and all other effecting factors.

This project used a simple GUI to control the environment. The algorithm, created by Mark Nelwon required a powerful visual control. Because of the complexity of the artificial life, the graphical section of the software had to be well-suited. Using a advanced Direct Pack draw-to method, the possible movements, changes, and effects of each environment was mapped out visually. The amazing intelligence and realistic appeal of each organism is astounding. Mark Nelwon's algorithm was created to give the organisms very little help in their decisions, and actions. The basic rules of life where applied, gravity, each animals physical limits, and basic instincts where intergrated. But once you view the complexity of each animal, it is hard to believe that this was all the was pre-programmed. But yes, this proves the wonders and ability of so called artificial intelligence. And the genius of Mark Nelwon's creation, of which I have studied in-and-out.

With only the basic information, each animal, organism, cell, and virus soon developed their own style, and method of surviving. They may take a specific liking or fancy to one specific location. In the jungle scenario, certain animals would constantly pair with the same partner animal. When the process was restarted (virtual 'creation' date) — the same animal would change its prefrences. Showing that there was in fact, no pre-programming. Also another example of developed intelligence, was that some animals would be violent to specific others, of the same species, or differential species. This is one of the many projects of Matt Timmer. And one of his personal favorites. And one of the hardest.

Modern Media Musings

In mainstream media, the truth can be distorted, or changed. Easily fogging the facts into fiction, and vica versa. Sometimes, for the common wealth, and general innocents (if there is any) of the public, this is necsessary. Morbid details, and damaging facts would lead the moldable masses like teenagers, children, and the all around naïve citizens from being led into a frenzy of horrows which infect the world today. Though it is an opinion, that the hard facts should be avliable. To those who wish to know the cold truth, without a veil, without addition. Such persons as journalist, authors, and most other literaturary minds. The common man, or women who wishes to view these stories, however gruesome, should have the ability to. But there are some secrets, some mediums to vile for public viewing. Governments around the world moderate to some extent, but it is mostly opinion on this method. Should the public have unlimited access? Of course, the government and independent agencies have their rights to protect important information. Such as classified information, government plans, and detailed information on destructive and violent subjects. Because this world isn't perfect, there is some "evil" in this world. People who would see the rest of us rot, people who enjoy devastation. In a world of billions, it amazes me the order we can maintain as is. Our minds have expanded beyond the dreams of a hundred years ago. The human mind is the one ultimate literaturary device. You must learn to control yours, or you may lose it.

It is common knowledge, that not everyone agrees. Some may disagree with this statement itself, though I hope it doesn't reach that far. Certain opinions however, may have more factual information to back their claims. If I stated that "all people who live below the town of Capilo, Colorado are heroin addicts" — I would need some hard evidence, as to back up the claim, making my statement a valid arguement (and to prevent Southerns from whooping my ass), aswell as providing room for a debate. Not ever person has the ability of academic genius. Their skill to publish ideas, may be somewhat limited. Though through modern technologies, the Internet has made it much easier. Community ideas form structured groups. Similar ideas bond via communication, expanding groups, and inevitably ideas. Now what a shock to the modern powers. Since when could the common man spread his or her ideas? This is almost absurd. Now, now. The common man can change much, as history tells. It takes but one sole idea, one small group, to bloom a revolution. Viva la rebellion, victoria revolution! Che Guevara - Rebellion

I Encourage..

I encourage users to expand apon: Thomas S. Ray | Artificial Life | Homer Jacobsen | Cascada*

Before I joined the WikiPedia community, I had used WikiPedia for school reports, essays, and projects alike. I found it to be a wonderful resource — and thats when I looked into supporting the community itself. I then created my account, and began to edit topics that I found of interest. Aswell, I plugged the WikiPedia community to many of my friends. This is just a little blurb, on why I love and support the WikiPedia community. I hope to continue to help expand apon the resources myself, and with others alike.

I would like to throw out a quick update. I created the page for the team Cascada — a dance/trance trio of vocals, and two DJs. I love their music, but I quickly wrote the page with very little information. I am currently expanding the page, and ask any Cascada fans and fanatics alike to help out. More information on Cascada can be found at BallonRecords who also provided the images I used under their Use-For-Traffic licsense. And it would also be nice to find other Cascada fans. I still like Max B. Grant & Blutonium Boy a little more ;-) por q no ponen las paginas en español pirobos
