Markerless tracking using planar structures in the scene by Simon, G, Fitzgibbon, AW, Zisserman, A

“…We describe a markerless camera tracking system for augmented reality that operates in environments which contain one or more planes. This is a common special case, which we show significantly simplifies tracking. …”

Desire and disinterest in Dusklands by Hayes, P

“…Yet the need to which it points persists, as is evident from Coetzee’s discussion of ‘free play’ in his essay ‘Erasmus: Madness and Rivalry’ (1992), where a certain conception of aesthetic disinterest (a sought-for ‘evasive (non)position inside/outside the play’) is seen as being related to, rather than disavowing, the desire of writer and readers alike. …”
