The One Motorcycle Show 2014 - nice stop motion video

"We’re particularly excited about this years show. It has been our simple and always challenging goal to make each show twice as good as the year before. With that in mind, we listened to the comments and suggestions from last year. The overwhelming consideration was that we had outgrown the space. Over 120 custom motorcycles + 6-8,000 attendees a day... we need a bigger space. We’re very excited to announce that we have a new location about a 1⁄2 mile away with twice the amount of space. It’s the building of One Show Dreams. We are very pleased to announce once again that the show is FREE to exhibit and to attend. This show is the culmination of the hard work volunteered from everyone involved, and the sponsorship from brands and companies who see the value in an event like this.

The One Motorcycle Show 2014 Dates: Feb 7th-8th-9th

JLR and Intel collaborate on new infotainment facility.

• Collaboration with Intel enhances Jaguar Land Rover’s research into future vehicle infotainment
• Jaguar Land Rover to further strengthen its technology focus with new R&D centre in Portland, Oregon
• The new centre has been located to enhance collaboration on research and product development with Intel and other leading IT businesses

Jaguar Land Rover will enhance its research and product development on future vehicle infotainment technologies through a new collaboration with Intel and the opening of a new Technology R&D centre in Portland, Oregon.

Jaguar Land Rover’s new research facility on the West Coast will help lead the development of future vehicle infotainment systems and will be responsible for collaborative work with a number of technology partners. The location of the centre has been chosen for its proximity to the technology industry hubs in Silicon Valley and Seattle, where Jaguar Land Rover has been developing collaborative partnerships with the world’s leading IT businesses and creative and technical talent.

Jaguar Land Rover and Intel have already begun work on multiple levels across engineering, research and marketing as Jaguar Land Rover progresses its ambitions to deliver the best in-car infotainment experience. The close proximity of Jaguar Land Rover’s new research facility to Intel Labs is enabling a collaborative relationship on research projects.  Multiple programs are underway to explore and develop next-generation digital vehicle prototypes with in-vehicle cockpit experiences that connect car, device and cloud.  The insights gained from the research programs along with alignment on engineering efforts will speed development on new innovative in-vehicle experiences.

Dr Wolfgang Ziebart, Jaguar Land Rover Engineering Director, said: “Our aim is to innovate and develop the ultimate user experience for our customers and by taking a collaborative approach with both technology start-ups and large organisations such as Intel, we will push the boundaries of future infotainment technology.

“Working with Intel will help both partners define and develop platforms and systems appropriate for premium global brands like Jaguar and Land Rover. This will ultimately develop unique and innovative technologies that will continue to drive the appeal of our products. Our research and the partnerships we are developing in the US will help us ensure our new products remain innovative and globally competitive.”

Elliot Garbus, vice president and general manager, Automotive Solutions Division, Intel Corporation, said: “Consumers expect their in-vehicle experiences to be an integrated part of their digitally connected lifestyle; this requires enhanced levels of connectivity and intelligence in the car.  As part of our work with Jaguar Land Rover, we are exploring innovative ways to inform, entertain and assist drivers and passengers in a safe way; speeding development of unique experiences from the car to the cloud.  Our goal is to accelerate opportunities for new types of in-vehicle services and applications in the Internet of Things.”

Creating the new technology centre in Portland and the collaborative partnerships it supports will accelerate the creation of the next generation of in-car technologies, features and software for future Jaguar and Land Rover models. The Portland facility will be Jaguar Land Rover’s first dedicated software R&D operation and will lead the optimisation for automotive applications of a range of new advanced technologies that are currently being developed on the West Coast.

The new ‘Open Software Technology Centre’ in Portland, which will open in 2014, will complement the established Jaguar Land Rover infotainment team based at the company’s product creation facility in Gaydon, UK. It will employ a team of around 30 infotainment specialists, including 16 highly experienced software engineers. Facilities will include a multimedia creative suite, innovation spaces, development laboratory and a six-bay vehicle workshop.

In the future, the Portland technology centre will also complement the long-term research projects that will be undertaken by the Jaguar Land Rover R&D team at the National Automotive Innovation Campus (NAIC) at the University of Warwick when it opens in 2016. These research projects include electrification, smart & connected cars and Human Machine Interface.

The Build

Bubble Mail:

"Hi lennard!

I wanted to share one of our latest projects, a labor of love. The Build (thebuildfilm.com) is a new interactive short film that looks at storytelling in a different way, by combining film with emerging web technologies. The story captures the values and culture of the motorcycle builder community in Portland, from the perspective of three independent bike builders.

Instrument’s goal with The Build was to blend design and technology in groundbreaking ways. It pairs traditional filmmaking with new school interactive and social experiences that push the envelope of browser technologies like webGL and HTML5 video. In short, we crafted a site that plays web video and includes heaps of animation without using any Flash.

Hope you enjoy the film experience!"

Thanks Thor!

Just watched it all(I think)
This is very cool! Great video experience. Watched it on a 24 inch screen. Brilliant. What a nice footage. That last shot with the traffic going true the hills ending with the stars lighting up in the sky is probably one of the most beautiful shots I've seen in a long time. I was WOWing out loud, ha.
 
Click here to see this next level film, and if you can, take your time and watch it on a very big screen.
I promise you, you wont regret it.

The One Motorcycle Show Book

Please help Thor Drake and friends with this book project.

What book project you might ask?
Well, non other than The One Motorcycle Books. It is a photo history of every bike that has every been displayed at Portland's own One Motorcycle Show.

What is the show may be your next question?

Its a show highlighting custom, rare, original motorcycles. The show was originally started 4 years ago in an old industrial building to serve the wishes of a few local builders. 4 years later they just wrapped on our latest Portland event where more than 75 builders from all over the greater USA, even Canada, displayed their fine works of art for more than 15,000 attendees. That seems like a good chunk of people in and out of our free event. But still smaller than the global influence the show has had. They set a goal to create something for the people who are interested in motorcycles, "its a motorcycle show for motorcyclist by motorcyclist."
