Tomorrow Daily - 141: A 3D-printed violin... or alien weaponry?

2015-03-10
on today's show scientists show off a heart chip that responds to medication just like a real living human heart why watch sports like a normal human being when you could watch it through the eyes of the player himself or herself and we're gonna show you a 3d printed violin that looks mysteriously like a Klingon weapon do you know to speak Klingon I will translate that tomorrow daily greetings citizens of the internet welcome to tomorrow daily the best geek talk-show in the known universe I'm your host Ashley scale Jamie's always Kayle anonymous you didn't let me speak I was clearing my throat I was a well that is speaking Klingon is that's the joke that's the joke if anybody watching this show actually speaks Klingon I would be really curious to know how to say tomorrow daily in Klingon so record an mp3 and email it to us tomorrow at cnet.com just that's a real test that's like real family how intense our audience is how legit are you you speak Klingon you still no one worth it language that I do that is sure I you know almost two languages I barely can speak English merely string two words together we have some really fun stories today definitely so as always every day on the show let's talk about the headlines I thought this was a crazy example of future tech this is so cool is straight out of a science fiction book it also freaked me out a little bit that's health tech it is so it always seems a little like weird rays yeah weird so this is from UC Berkeley it's a research team at UC Berkeley which thumbs up guys cuz you you research team created a very special chip and what this chip does it's it's about an inch long and it's got a bit of cardiac muscle in the middle and it's embedded inside this like silicone body and the way it's designed it makes the little bit of muscle respond to medication like heart medication the exact same way a human heart would Oh trial and error yeah so so here it hard on a chip so here is heart cells beating normally and then they're gonna give it different medications to see how these heart cells respond otherwise so it's kind of Awesome for a few reasons number one being it could route this type of technology could replace animal testing yeah that would be fantastic which is great news and because you know first of all using animals is a little bit on that it's like some people argue it's unethical yeah and and of course like you know the animals probably don't like it is it more expensive it is more expensive I'll get into the price like there's a oh my the numbers on this there's some there are some statistics on this that are crazy but the other part of it is is that obviously animals are not us and they're not human so when you give them something we might react to it very differently meaning more trial and error so this is something that they're very excited about and Kevin Healy who is the professor in charge of the team who developed the chip was talking about it and he said that it takes about 5 billion with ABI dollars to develop one drug usually look on average about five billion dollars and a well-designed model of a human organ kind of like this could basically cut the traditional cost in time and and raise the efficiency and you know medicinal development I mean it would be so much easier if your knew you were developing specifically for human tissue and could see exactly how it reacted yeah so it could really change the way that we develop medication which is pretty awesome yeah that's pretty fantastic so it this is how they make these like muscles they don't just like open you up and take out some heart some parts okay they are do that or explain it so they take an adult stem cell and with stem cells you can sort of train them you can coax them into being different types of cells and so they they coax these adult stem cells into being heart cells like cardiac to muscle tissue so it's heart muscles grown in a lab and it's uh they place it inside the silicone chamber and the chamber itself is actually designed to mimic of blood vessels like the way that so to delivery the drugs is very similar to the way we get them in our hearts and so and the tissue remains functional for like a few weeks and you can test multiple drugs on it so which is great you can test multiple things you don't have to worry about like oh we have to wait for the scale system like Beauvoir and then the LAT the next step of this which I thought was totally insane if you think about this heart on a chip you can make an entire sort of computer of the human body with these like stem cells they want to make they want to try to move forward in building other organs on chips and then come and then actually connecting all of them as if it were a human like a little testing ground yeah all these differences because sometimes because sometimes when you take a medication you have a side effect so maybe or as we all know there are some medications that are let's say good your heart they help a specific condition but really bad for either your liver your kidneys yeah other organs yeah and so they're saying now you can domino is falling or whatever now you can see like with that type of technology built you could see exactly how your specific individual body would respond to like specific kinds of medication so very personalized medicine like this this is something that could be really really cool a few years in the future and I just thought it was amazing they were able to sort of replicate the way the human heart works and responds the medication on a one inch chip so how long far along are they you said that they want to do like all different types of organs so they're only working on the heart right now they're working on heart right now and that was the thing that we saw in the video like you could see these like little heart like heart cells they're kind of beating a horrible little heart cells your cute little heart cells you look so adorable she wanna squeeze you um yeah so they're working on heart cells and then and then I think like one of the things they specifically mentioned was you know I kidney or liver which is you know cuz your body processes medication through those organs so it's like and a lot of other junk so they're saying that like that would be a logical next step is sort of like either that or you know maybe your lungs stuff like that so I I thought that was so cool yeah I'm scared again scare sighting that's very scary sighting but it's so like it's really impressive yeah that's fantastic yeah super good so nice job UC Berkeley we can save those animals for you know eating yeah wearing clothes yeah what okay okay please continue okay so this technology is much needed in the world of sports okay because you just watch sports you see it's a bunch of guys running around yeah they look so small there are little guys running around high-fiving each other hitting each other and but whatever it whatever it is they're doing over there wow this new technology lets you live the sport from the actual field or court or whatever so basically what this is this is called first vision one it's a Spanish startup club in it they basically mount a camera on the athlete so that you can see what it's like from their view and it sends it so that you can watch it in a low latency livestream you can actually see that's cool it live and even like if you're looking at the screen it also shows their heart rate yeah I was gonna ask show statistics for their mark right side of the screen you can see a like a heart beating and a number that's their heart rate as they're playing yeah so you can see how much they're getting into it now what's crazy about this is you know the technology of cameras and live streaming is got so far that this is 1080p HD footage oh yeah it's just this little tiny camera that they wear on them and it feeds back immediately lightweight imagine okay so this or this already made its debut they made its debut at a game a game featuring Spanish team a core Cordoba yeah yeah so which so so it was it was football football or soccer yeah it's also worn by refs and players in the Euroleague basketball games I think the great idea yes learn by rams can see the replay you could see so like sometimes maybe we'd be able to catch like refs cheating like if you could like well no no listen you hear a lot about people going oh the refs threw that game refs threw that game yeah but if the fans could see what the ref saw maybe there'd be a little bit like the Russian or that game is more or less a defensive mechanism for people that think I think it'd be cool though yeah it like any last minute things to see if someone did a foul or anything that's a like a false call so yeah so what we think this could raise the bar in terms of sports watching in the future I would definitely if it was like the Super Bowl I would love to get like into like see like a like a quarterback getting ready to like throw it and you see all these dudes running at it but it's I think the heart rate thing is especially cool that's cool you know like Usain Bolt like imagine watching him run and like watch his heart rate just spiked and then come back I oh man that would be so awesome or maybe it's already beating really fast before the before the gun goes off and then he's like he's because he's so pumped to run or he could be even crazier to see an athlete do crazy well and his heart rate isn't even going nuts yeah it's like cool under problem so yeah that's pretty cool that's awesome all right so hashtag of the day I like this TD first this first person yeah what activity would you want to see broadcast on television live in first person so please behave yourselves we all know what would more terrible people will go to immediately yeah what's yours uh I'm kind of weird as we have all figured out on the show yeah I'm a little bit weird I would say surgery like I love the idea of being able to watch surgeries like I dig that like I'm really into like the medical like I just I really like medical stuff and so to be able to see that in real life and that that's not dramatized like Oh like Grey's Anatomy like I want to see the real thing I want to watch that or UFC fighting cuz that's oh that seems intense yeah watching but where do you I mean for the guys like where do you just on their shorts but it's like I mean you can't attach it to them unless they like implants on a camera under their skin or whatever but once it gets punched it's over like that cameras rapping on their arm the camera be terrible I wouldn't mind seeing like circus performers anyway that does like extraordinary things that we wouldn't like I'll never be able to do like I can run down a soccer field and kick a ball or whatever yeah but like I cannot like be on a one of those trapeze artists I can you know like doing flips and stuff like that this reminded me it would be really neat to be able to buy a pay-per-view concert like like pink she does all the acrobatics and stuff yeah like a be cool to be able to see the show from her point of view all the time so she has like a little tiny unobtrusive camera on like all of her costumes or whatever or any artist like I think would be really cool to be able to see a show from their point of view it veers p.m. smart the office offer this is like a bonus package but they're gonna have to get though they're gonna have to get they're definitely gonna have to get the athletes to wear them and that's gonna be a whole headache extra money yeah especially if it's like a quarterback that makes sense so but I love it no I die really like it I think that's really fun so that's TD first CD first TD first T first just the whole activity f irst you don't do one st I don't want to confused anybody who's listening I can't actually see the hashtags so um I gotta tell you about this 3d printer violin first of all this is crazy-looking this violin is crazy like what's it okay producer Logan's gonna put it up on the screen it is unbelievably weird-looking it is super curved and beautiful it's part of this art exhibit it's it's gonna be part of so that this is a different instrument that you're right it doesn't that looks like a bat'leth so this is a different instrument so they have like a whole collection of instruments that they're showing off at this art exhibit it's called the 3d print design show in New York City Wow look at that thing it looks that looks like sharp it'll it does it looks like it could hurt somebody really bad if you someone tries to steal it just take them where the violin you're saying it sounds like yeah it's it's actually not just oh look at this cool 3d printed shell of a violin and but it works exactly the same as a normal violin no it works totally different than that it's only has two strings instead of four uh-huh and then it the curves amplify the acoustics of the sound in a totally new way so you can hear the way the violin has played in a completely different way than a standard violin which is pretty impressive all of these 3d printed instruments are gonna appear at the 3d print design show in New York City as part of this like exhibit where they're gonna show all of the different instruments and you can buy tickets you can go after your New York City I've seen that covering that uh you know I have a feeling someone's probably gonna go to that okay cool um it's uh I know that I mean we covered it on the site like the violin which is pretty cool and then but I don't know I don't know if they'll go to the go to the Art Show I think we're really fun to go sound off that's TD C net goes to the 3d art exhibit and that's your home so many characters you can yeah yeah it's just like the thumbs ever thumbs down because you literally have taken up 139 you have to do fault you have to do all of that Orsino serious you know today will go yeah future instruments super weird man like that super weird already I'm ready for some super instruments like see how instruments like some Final Fantasy there's this weird stuff there's this crazy keyboard I don't know if you've seen it or not but it's like maybe we'll show it on the show one of these days it's not brand new but it's it's so unreal looking like it just looks like it came from space like it looks like aliens designed it and it makes really weird sounds and it's very odd right no I don't think we did us okay we did aliens yeah yeah one base thing yeah it's you there's that one and then there's another it's like a keyboard it's like an electronic keyboard looks like it was made in outer space it's so cool anyway um we're gonna take a quick break we'll be right back it is Tuesday so we have new releases and then of course your user feedback which is gonna get pretty exciting because i doand YouTube comments and then and then of course we have our phone talker for today so don't click away it's tomorrow daily hey everyone welcome back to the show it's Tuesday and that means we are gonna talk about all the great things that are coming out this week that you may want to spend your hard-earned cash on all the things were really excited to see coming out whether it be video games movies television this is new releases okay so we there's some good games coming out this week I'm pretty excited okay we have AI really well there's one that you're gonna be really excited about but for me hotline Miami 2 is coming out today have your play Holi man yes I'm terrible at it I'm too I'm awful at it okay but it's a continuation of the first story they're saying that like it's gonna happen before and after the events of the first one which is pretty exciting and if you haven't played hotline Miami I don't know I just I recommend it because it it's great it is it's it's pretty good and and so that's available today on PlayStation 4 PlayStation 3 PlayStation Vita and PC you can get it but not on no Xbox one on the whole hole which is kind of a bummer but it looks slow it's super graphic and violent and it's very old-style Smash TV very smash man it's it's got a lot of personality the music is great if nobody's recommend what for hotline miami like you can get a soundtrack like usually come by the san fran they're so good so it's pretty cool i I recommend at least checking out a twitch stream for it so you can you can get a feel for it but it's a it's not this is one of those games there's nothing like playing it it's very like Smash TV it's it can be very hyper violent but you know I'm it's definitely hyper violent as an adult I get to play hyper violent games so going from that to the complete opposite end of the spectrum of other things that I like which are whimsy and amazing artwork and just gloriousness tell me more Ori and the blind forest okay which I played at e3 it comes out for Xbox one and there be an Xbox 360 version they're working on if it'll be later this year this is gameplay and Windows so they're gonna window so this is um this is actually the intro of the game this is like the cutscene so oh my god that's adorable this game is unbelievably gorgeous it looks like um god there's just so many games that it's it reminds me of like in my heart like it's it's very reminiscent like that's gameplay that's at the actual game okay it's so it's a side scroller three like a side-scrolling venture they said that like methylate and Raymond were - they're like that's they want the heart of those types of games so very a side-scrolling a kind of platforming adventure game it's a very coming-of-age story the intro to this game literally almost made me cry at when I was on the show floor at e3 last year it was the only thing that like hit me emotionally right in the feels like gut punch to your feels guys I have to buy this it's do you think this is gonna be like a candidate for any any particular categories for like Game of the Year I think I think it definitely might win some awards that's all I'm sorry all right stunning I haven't played the full game but I will say that one of the things that I really loved about the development of this game is as far as I'm aware and when I talked to the guy at e3 a whole bunch of the guys who developed it they don't live in the same country cool developed the entire game like from different countries there were like nine guys and they developed it and they they had just gotten to sort of meet some of them got to meet each other for the first time ever at e3 to come show the game which I thought was so cool again technology coming together but none of these none of these will interest Logan producer Logan more than as much as our next one which is true grand theft auto 5 heists which isn't a new game no it's basically they now the much promised so long ago heist highly involving player so now I guess a lot of people are gonna start loading up their robbery some bank it's right by the way if you have grand theft auto it's free this is how you know say yeah yeah so you get to you get to hang around your friends group up and do heists I haven't got a chance to try it out I know how many heists there are go rob some banks get to Robert Chuy banks I gotta wait for the PC version to come out I've got an Xbox 360 but who cares yes so this is much anticipated this is another one you can expect to see a lot of on Twitch if you want to check it out and see these heists going on you can go download it today actually on PlayStation Network and Xbox Live if you're so inclined it's on all of okay cool yeah with you PC I think it's what next month yeah yeah next month so um and then lastly and in theaters this weekend of interest to me oh if only because AI love Cate Blanchet and she looks like she is like chewing the scenery in this which I adore and then but Cinderella is coming out with me a live-action Disney to two things on this go ahead I liked Maleficent I thought it was good yeah so I'm curious if this is gonna be it looks decent it looks like a good kind of live action fairy tale does look too cheesy that's the first time I'm seeing the trailer for this I don't think did they promote this well and they've been providing this like crazy and that and but I just heard today like speaking of live-action Disney movies I don't know if you heard this or not but Tim Burton's gonna do Dumbo a live-action Dumbo yeah what you're silent yep now that I think that's exactly my response actually what what okay yeah cuz we we have we have buting the beasts coming yes now we have the bard from The Hobbit playing guest on okay and then we have Dumbo yeah what's left I was hoping that Tim Burton mutton right I was hoping they're gonna do Pinocchio that seems like wood even they go to pleasure really don't know what pleasure island and they do it like they're all they the cigars and something they turn into donkeys and it's terrifying that seems like a Tim Burton see you know what do you remember that scene in Dumbo where it's all the like heffalumps yeah the pink elephants on parade that seems gonna be nightmarish I listen it could be really good that's the only part of it I think is very Tim Burton but everything else rather do don't know Dumbo I don't think Dumbo needs to be live-action let's not let's not even all that it's a class it doesn't need no Pinocchio seems like someone of us feel like outcasts because we have something different about it I just don't want to see Johnny Depp play the leader of that group of Papa Johnny Depp as Dumbo as the leader of the crows like it's gonna because he is a too big I don't know what to do with them where's all the room oh no oh you're the super racist crows like he's gonna do that role like he already played Tonto and lone ranger it's not a real stretch for it be slightly racist come on Johnny Depp don't do it I'm begging you all right um every everyday we like to talk about what you guys think of the show and so it is now time for your feedback all right we asked everybody last week we did the the $30,000 doghouse of the future and we had TD house yeah unfortunately none of you on Twitter looking at you Twitter nobody responded so guess what I did it's hard on Thurs my scuba diving suit and I dove into the depths of YouTube comments I went in with my nose plugged and I jumped I try to keep my welcome back thank you I'm alive still have all your you know facial pieces it's true elbows and fingers I may also have just been I may be liquid metal and I've rebuilt myself as a robot like informaiton yeah pretty cool um okay so I took some of your youtube comments which actually we're surprisingly adorable and great you can't always talk crap on the YouTube commenters there's a lot of cool people out there I was really impressed with you guys just FYI um okay so things in the rough first comment gaming TV wrote to us and said what would be awesome is if eventually we have entire simulated wildlife parks where all the wildlife a robotic so we could explore and observe their behavior of current species animals and extinct species as well like dinosaurs and hunt them and hunt a most dangerous game yeah that's cool and that was about the plural bot the salamander robot so they were saying like if we had these like zoos where there were robotic animals where they basically acted exactly like real animals we could study them without actually having to like capture them uh handy Randy wrote if you really read the comments on YouTube you would mention my name since I'm the biggest fan of all time handy Randy well guess what I do read the comments and I'm mentioning you handy Randy biggest fan of all time biggest fan of all time that's why somebody step up to handy Randy thank someone to challenge you for that title show that they're a bigger fan someone's got a challenge handy Randy for the baddie Randy watch your back now for me I'm not gonna everybody just gonna sit here we're just yeah we're fine okay edit Hulk wrote contra is easier than Ghosts'n goblins no it's not ha no it's not edit Hulk agree no and then Robert wrote about the TD schooled where he said with the lightsabers and we were like why would you pick paintball when you could have a full-on like war you could do like wargames like came back he has a response and he's like sorry for being such a d-bag and TD schooled here's my explanation I agree with guys with you guys that using real blasters spaceships and lightsabers would be much more awesome but my logic was for having a paintball fight with them was because if I have blasters shooting real lasers those people would get injured and Luke would probably get sued from the parents who go who have a kid with his or her arm chopped off or a hole or a hole burning through them loved the show watch you guys every day you guys are the best sometimes I have to stop because I'm laughing so hard hashtag tomorrow daily hashtag best geek talk show hashtag pizza forevermore Pizza Pizza Pizza Pizza Pizza Pizza thing why do you think about lawsuits like nobody's everything you got to keep it safe imagine if like Luke Skywalker got a lot of egos no you could have sued Darth Vader for cutting off his hands oh yeah the lawsuit is strong in this like Saul Goodman shows up in Return of the Jedi and he's like you're being served that would be the best crossover I said Darth Vader what we should totally do that we support Saul Goodman shows up in other franchises to like serve people like paper that would be an amazing we should do that don't steal that idea anybody on the inner Shh don't tell anybody Kayla and I are gonna do it it's gonna be great all right guys it's time for our very last piece of user feedback which is of course our phone talker for the day all right so our phone time for the day today is you got to do that I know I do that let's get Bob Odenkirk on the phone after we're done with chef if anybody knows Bob Odenkirk or related to Bobby he's watching he's watching yeah huge fan of the show call us all right Molly wrote in and I'm saying I loved this picture she says I took this picture of my iPhone 4s back in November at my friend's sweet 16 birthday party Atwater Sound Beach Florida I love the show my family all watches it together I love this bonfire with the beach it's like it's super artistic I really like it what would make this picture like just just I can't really get much better than this but what could what's the one thing that would make it better Jeff Goldblum off in the back Blazers in the water but he's got floaties on his arm I would say left shark would make this picture I'm just saying no this is beautiful yeah gorgeous I want wait
