About Pink Floyd Animals

Animals is Pink Floyd's 10th Studio Album, released in 1977, loosely based on George Orwell's political fable Animal Farm, its lyrics described various classes in society as different kinds of animals; the combative dogs, despotic ruthless pigs, and the "mindless and unquestioning herd" of sheep.

The famous album cover is of the Battersea Power Station in Battersea, UK in southwest London. The inflated pig balloon over the power station is now an iconic image representing a critique of capitalism. Jim Hartley and Theron Kabrich (http://www.sfae.com/index.php?pg=110005) of the SFAE staff will be on-hand to chat with you about this exhibit

Vidality (http://www.vidality.com/)

------------------------

The seeds of Vidality were sown early in 2011 in a brainstorming session by a group of Stanford University engineering students pondering the future direction of video technology. The discussion transitioned from the actual engineering elements of video to social philosophy and, in particular, human interaction with the technology. Paul Campbell held fast to the idea that, regardless of the success experienced by the current wave of social media channels, the survivors to the next level will be those who integrate face-to-face interaction to satisfy the human needs of savvy users. At the same time, the evolution of the technology needed to be simple and mimic traditional human interaction to overcome "technophobe" hesitation. As proof, Paul cited the popularity of Skype and YouTube, as well as the integration of video into social networks such as Facebook and others.
