The Biggest Geek In The World

Skywalker Last Supper Painting Made With 69,550 Star Wars Frames



"This is what you get when you capture 69,550 full resolution frames from the six Star Wars movies and combine them with a version of DaVinci's Last Supper on a PC with mosaic-making software and a custom matlab-based algorithm. The 262-megapixel mosaic (24,168 x 10,864 pixels) took two weeks to complete, including 30 hours of computing power and manual retouching for the final version."

And he skipped college classes for two weeks to finish this.

Geek of the Year™? Me thinks so... ;)

How did he get away with skipping classes for two weeks?
If I miss any one class more than twice I fail the course and 2 weeks would be 4 classes. They even have me on the classes I have once a week. I can only miss one of those.
