![]() Josh's immediate supervisor is the head secretary, Marlina (Helen Shumaker), a half-sinister, half-seductive figure who seems like a distant cousin of Cruella DeVille. Josh goes to work as secretary to an infamously picayune tax attorney named Bob (Warren Keith), who stands around his office asking speakerphone questions like, "Can we depreciate the hole as it fills up over the years?" Kornbluth has been a longtime temp worker in real life, although he assures us, leaping from one foot to the other in a nervous prologue, that the temp named Josh who winds up at the law firm of Schuyler & Mitchell (check those initials) is not really him. Like Allen at his best, however, Kornbluth is capable of convincing you that his intense self-consciousness is a world sufficient unto itself. When the film ventures into the world outside the reverberating "haiku tunnel" of Kornbluth's own ego, its weaknesses become painfully obvious. Kornbluth can be a captivating performer but he isn't much of an actor he's much funnier trying to talk to a computer printer in its own language, or lost in reveries about his bed, than he is relating to other people. "Haiku Tunnel" may appear to be a fable about an aspiring novelist who is almost monastically devoted to his temp-worker status, but that's really just an excuse for showcasing Kornbluth's stammering, mugging, endlessly self-aware persona. But he's a distinctive comic talent, the kind who either irritates you beyond all measure or makes you giggle uncontrollably (or, not infrequently, both at once). I doubt that Josh Kornbluth, the co-writer, co-director and star of "Haiku Tunnel," is destined for a Hollywood career his appearance, which simultaneously suggests Woody Allen, Jacques Tati and the Buddha, is just too peculiar. It's basically a San Francisco underground theater production that somehow escaped onto the movie screen without losing any of its eccentric, insular qualities. ![]() ![]() Actually, the charm and the shoddiness of "Haiku Tunnel" stem from the same source. Need a calibration mechanism to ensure that all individual tiles have the same brightness and color settings.You might be in the mood for diversion right around now, and the ultra-low-budget office comedy "Haiku Tunnel," for all its limitations, has a mysterious power I found almost comforting.Are very flexible regarding size (number of individual displays).Need a video wall controller to get content on the screens.For example, a 4K video wall requires 4 Full HD screens in a 2 x 2 setup.Īlthough these different technologies have very distinct merits, answering specific needs of users, they have a number of things in common. The resolution is subject to the wall size. If watched from up close, the pixel density should be high enough to not see the individual pixels. The choice of the screen size depends on the typical content and the viewing distance. These display walls are available in a wide range of sizes, typically with a screen diameter between 46” and 80”. Today’s display wall solutions are generally using tiled LCD panels, rear-projection cubes, or direct-view LED tiles. Typical application areas include control rooms, meeting rooms, digital signage and other demanding environments. Therefore, new technologies were introduced to minimize the ‘dead pixel space’ between the different displays. This completely tore down the effect of a single canvas and ruined the visual performance. The problem however was the large frame (or bezel) that surrounded the useful display surface of each television. ![]() The objective was to make it seem as one large display surface. Originally, they consisted of multiple televisions or monitors that were put closely together. A video wall (also known as display wall) is a large visualization surface consisting of multiple displays.
