Steve Jobs on the iTunes Music Store: The Unpublished Interview

A candid talk with Apple's CEO on a landmark day in its history. By Laura Locke | Wednesday, December 7, 2011 at 1:15 am Steve Jobs announces the iTunes Music Store. On April 28th, 2003, moments before I was about to interview Steve Jobs at San Francisco’s Moscone Center, I was jittery. Anticipation? Nerves? Excitement? You bet. All of those visceral emotions were firing. Knowing Jobs’ storied reputation as an irascible and exacting Silicon Valley CEO had me on edge. But I had prepared a tight set of questions. Secretly, I was hoping he might enjoy the line of inquiry. In turn, I would have a lively and candid report for my editors at TIME. What I didn’t know was that the interview was taking place on what would turn out to be one of the most important days in Apple’s history: The launch of the iTunes Music Store. Once again, Ste...

“真假难辨”的效果图如何打造，以一只笔为例（下）——渲染篇

原文地址独家教程 | “真假难辨”的效果图如何打造，以一只笔为例（下）——渲染篇上期独家教程，康石石带大家用Rhino完成了 COPIC MULTILINER 针管笔建模（复习请戳：独家教程 | “真假难辨”的效果图如何打造，以一只笔为例（上）——建模篇），下面我们把它丢进Keyshot渲染器里，看看究竟Keyshot究竟能不能打造真实照片一般的既视感。 Keyshot虽为各家晚辈，但近年来突飞猛进。有的同学说Keyshot渲染效果不如V-Ray，但我们可以看下本期独家教程内容再作判断。基础材质赋予首先我们打开 Keyshot 基本导入参数导入后由于我们事先在Rhino中，对各个部件分过色，所以我们可以直接，尽情把左边各种需要的材质球直接拖到需要的部件上。初步赋予材质后效果特写效果环境光赋予 Keyshot预设的材质显然不能够完全适合所需情况，且物体上的光线并不是很正确。因此同学们需要将环境光换成更加接近真实摄影棚的灯光场景。选用 3 Panels Tilted 2k 作为的基本环境光，将环境光拖入环境里之后，效果如下：模型各部材质赋予由于光影的变化，整个模型已更加真实。接下来各部的材质还需根据实际的视觉情况手工调整。以下是这次模型各部材质的参数：笔身主要的金属材质黑色塑料件部分以及笔头的黑色笔夹与笔头所使用的金属材质 Tip：金属材质是将Keyshot预设的钢材质的粗糙度调整为0.01而成。握柄处的塑料材质 Tip：因为塑料的视觉特点，此处特地选用了半透明属性的材质做调整，除了表面颜色的参数之外，剩余的三个颜色区域均使用了 R255，G255，B255的纯白。笔身标签渲染在给各部赋予了材质之后，产品很重要的一个环节就是印刷于产品之上的各种商标与说明，在Keyshot中，这些效果可以很轻松的通过标签功能来实现。首先对实物上的印刷效果进行观察，可以看出实物上的印刷效果其实是比较立体的。 Tip：细节，往往是产品品质的一种体现。在效果图的渲染中，也应该...

BIM江湖演义——ArchiCAD vs Revit

原文地址江湖中历来不缺乏传奇。在建筑软件的这片江湖中，风云变幻，豪杰辈出，有两大世家始终屹立不倒——一个来自欧罗巴，名字低调：“图形软件”（Graphisoft），却继承了一身的艺术家气质，手握长剑白衣胜雪；一个来自美利坚，人称“自动桌子”（Autodesk），性格豪放不羁，七种武器样样精通。本文所说的，就是这两大世家的代表人物：ArchiCAD与Revit之间的较量。这个论题本是老生常谈了，谈到BIM绕不过的就是Revit与ArchiCAD。两者的对比许多帖子都讨论过，但往往大而化之，原则性的东西多，细节的东西少，因此我想再作一次比较，希望能深入一点，具体一点，力争较为全面地反映两者的真实面貌。但这种对比往往两面都不讨好，你懂的，因此本文也多用戏说的语气，我姑妄说之，列位看官也就姑妄听之吧，有不当之处还请多多包涵！先介绍一下本人对这两个软件的熟悉程度。我用ArchiCAD有4年了，出过几套施工图，都已竣工，编过一系列向日葵图库，颇受好评，对ArchiCAD的认识偏重于施工图；用Revit一年半，出过四个工程的土建及MEP模型，也用其API编了若干插件，对Revit的认识偏重于建模（包括结构及MEP建模）。应该说对ArchiCAD与Revit的认识都算深入了。当然两者的深度比较是一个庞大的工程，而且个人看法难免有偏见，技术上也多有误解之处，因此希望各位能指正与补充。 1 软件的思想、架构对比从软件的历史来说，无疑是ArchiCAD悠久得多，Revit是Autodesk在2002年才收购回来的，但Revit有一个强有力的东家，马上推出“BIM”这个很炫的口号，一下把ArchiCAD沿用多年的“虚拟建筑”这个老老实实的口号给打败了，于是ArchiCAD也只好宣称自己是个BIM软件，搞得在外人看来，倒像是Revit占了先机。从软件设计的角度来看，两者也是差别巨大的。ArchiCAD从20多年前就致力于三维建筑设计，在这方面积累了足够多的经验，多年来也是沿用其架构做一些小更新、小完善、小整合。从我接触的7.0到最新的14.0，感觉比较大的变动就是10.0版整合PlotMaker、12版支持多核计算提升速度、12版新增幕墙工具、13版团队工作大幅改进。在界面上、使用习惯上一直差别不大，这也在一个侧面反映了ArchiCAD软件设计的一个“精英思路”——我本来就...

Steve Jobs: Rolling Stone’s 2003 Interview

When Steve Jobs cruises into the airy reception area on the Apple Computer campus in Cupertino, California, on a recent morning, nobody pays much attention to him, even though he’s the company’s CEO. He’s wearing shorts, a black T-shirt and running shoes. Tall and a little gawky, Jobs has a fast, loping walk, like a wolf in a hurry. These days Jobs seems eager to distance himself from his barefoot youth – who was that crazy kid who once called the computer “a bicycle for the mind”? – and driven to prove himself as a clear-thinking Silicon Valley capitalist. Jobs punches the elevator button to the fourth floor, where his small office is located. For a man who is as responsible as anyone for the wonder and chaos of Silicon Valley, Jobs’ view of it all is surprisingly modest: shrubby treetops extending out toward San Francisco Bay, the distant whoosh of the freeway below. There is nothing modest, however, about Apple’s recent accomplishments. In the past few months,...

Steve Jobs talks about the difference between art and technology

When asked by Time magazine about the difference between art and technology, Jobs said, “I’ve never believed that they’re separate. Leonardo da Vinci was a great artist and a great scientist. Michelangelo knew a tremendous amount about how to cut stone at the quarry. The finest dozen computer scientists I know are all musicians. Some are better than others, but they all consider that an important part of their life. I don’t believe that the best people in any of these fields see themselves as one branch of a forked tree. I just don’t see that. People bring these things together a lot. Dr. Land at Polaroid said, ‘I want Polaroid to stand at the intersection of art and science,’ and I’ve never forgotten that. I think that that’s possible, and I think a lot of people have tried.”

Laurene’s own remarks about Steve

Steve and I met here, at Stanford, the second week I lived in California. He came here to give a talk, and afterwards we found each other in the parking lot. We talked until four in the morning. He proposed with a fistful of freshly picked wildflowers on a rainy New Year’s Day. I said yes. Of course I said yes. We built our lives together. He shaped how I came to view the world. We were both strong-minded, but he had a fully formed aesthetic and I did not. It is hard enough to see what is already there, to remove the many impediments to a clear view of reality, but Steve’s gift was even greater: he saw clearly what was not there, what could be there, what had to be there. His mind was never a captive of reality. Quite the contrary. He imagined what reality lacked, and he set out to remedy it. His ideas were not arguments but intuitions, born of a true inner freedom. For this reason, he possessed an uncannily large sense of possibility—an epic sense of possibility. Steve’s love of beaut...

产品随想 | 周刊第117期：He saw the intersection of art and science and business and built an organization to reflect that.

He disliked biography attempts. “I regard my scientific papers as my essential biography,’’ Land said. “I pour my whole life into the scientific project I’m investigating. I leave behind the things I’ve done in the past to do the work in the present.’’ “The purpose of inventing instant photography was essentially aesthetic,’’ Land said in 1947, announcing the process’s invention. “We live in a world changing so rapidly that what we mean frequently by common sense is doing the thing that would have been right last year.” — Edwin Land, Statement to Polaroid Corporation employees (25 June 1958) The worldview he was describing perfectly echoed Land’s: “Market research is what you do when your product isn’t any good.” And his sense of innovation: “Every significant invention,” Land once said, “must be startling, unexpected, and must come into a world that is not prepared for it. If the world were prepared for it, it would not be much of an invention.” Thirty years later, when a reporter ask...
