Around 2001 I interviewed Kenneth Kendall about the filming of "The World Tonight". He told me that Kubrick said he should have something to hold, maybe a fancy pen, he would sort something out. That did not really come about in time for Kendall's recording, but may have been the origin of the pen Heywood Floyd's floating pen sequence. Just thought this might interest you. Many thanks for taking this project out of hibernation in a safer manner than HAL achieved!

Yeah with the project relying on Flash in the past it was a double edged sword in a way, on one hand it allowed for pretty good quality animations and super small files but on the other it was a real pain to keep running properly, and now with Adobe ending its life, the screensaver is no more. Thank you so so much for your kind support of the project in the past, it really means so much to me. Now I do want to mention that the new version won't require a download or installation as it'll be released here on KZbin, so it should work on any KZbin compatible device. This should mean it is way more accessible than before. I need to investigate as to how that can translate to things like animated wallpaper and screensavers etc. but first I want to get it up and released. Thank you again!

A couple of years ago Master Replicas Group, formerly a (reputable) prop replica maker, got back in the game with a recreation of the HAL speaker module. An extra for the crowdfunding campaign was an attached screen that could play back animations and audio. A little later, another item available for purchase was a HAL 9000 screensaver, that, from images, was very similar to yours. At the time as the HAL project seemed to be dormant, I assumed it was due to licensing issues related to MR. It was about US$20 and I felt it was a rip off, because I was sure it was your work and never bought it. However, I may be mistaken in this regard as the firm said it was developed in-house. What I am not mistaken about is that MR eventually failed to deliver any speakers or consoles, declared bankruptcy after using more than US$500,000 in funding cash with nothing to show. Scammed.

So this won't be a traditional "screensaver" as before, so it won't require installation or Flash. Instead it'll all be released here on KZbin as videos (meaning any KZbin compatible device can display it (TV's, Tablets, Mobiles etc.) should be way more accessible. There may be some applications that can run it as a screensaver, I'll have to investigate, first step is to release!

Will there be any way to download the Manifold typeface? I've been working on animating an old presentation of mine on the mathematical modeling of oscillations in star formation regions. Basically, after staring at my screensaver for so long I started to wonder whether or not you could actually use this style to present and communicate actual science and math concepts. Long story short, my final project for my mathematical modeling course stole the show. It's not perfect, and I'm limited by the capabilities of PowerPoint (surprisingly capable), but I feel it absolutely captures the spirit. It would probably be even better if I had the Manifold typeface to use. I'd love to send you a copy of the presentation, but I couldn't find any way to do that. If you'd like to see it, just let me know how.

When do you expect to have the screensaver finished? Will there be a Mac version too? Thanks!

So I'm about 90% done so really not long at all, I do want to work on some new animations and have just released a video detailing the process. No specific @Mac@ version will be needed as it'll be released here on KZbin, but I;m sure there are Mac applications that can display videos as screensavers or maybe even desktop wallpaper.

So I looked into this... If you post the video, I can "download" it with my app. I then can strip the audio with my software. 1) On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Desktop & Screen Saver & then click Screen Saver. 2) Open the Screen Saver pane l. 3)Click a screen saver on the left, then set options for how it will look on the right. ... Set options for when to show the screen saver.
