Most game interfaces restrict the player to a place in front of the computer screen. In mixed reality applications the point of interaction seems to be moving away from technical devices towards a more natural user interface. Actions of players are no longer indirect and mediated by devices: i.e. a jump is a jump. A mixed reality enhanced game is presented, where the traditional interface is re...

In unicellular flagellates, growing evidence suggests control over a complex repertoire of swimming gaits is conferred intracellularly by ultrastructural components, resulting in motion that depends on flagella number and configuration. We report the discovery of a novel, tripartite motility in an octoflagellate alga, comprising a forward gait (run), a fast knee-jerk response with dramatic reve...
