    How Mickey Mouse and Mr. Q Manufactured Emotion

    Former Disney audio experience engineer, Mr. Q, reveals how he assisted in developing a complex algorithm to arrange over 15,000 speakers around the Disney World theme park. All to achieve the ideal ambient music for "manufacturing emotion." More »

    Dubai's Technosphere Concept Would Fit Right Into a Disney Park

    I think they ran out of weird building designs, because the centerpiece of Dubai's Technopark looks like it was copied from Epcot's Spaceship Earth. Whatever happened to architecture proposals for Dubai being completely nuts? More »

    Tilt-Shift Photography Turns Disney World Into Epic Toy Set

    Disney World is essentially one big toy model, so in many cases, its miniaturization through the magic of tilt-shift photography ironically looks more natural than actually being there. As as pile of trinkets, Disney World actually seems pretty normal. [TechEBlog]

    Steve Jobs Whips Disney Stores Into Shape: High-Tech, Interactive, iPhone-Controlled

    Disney retail stores, like many other venerable chains, have been suffering in recent years. But Disney's got an ace in the hole (or, accurately, on their board): Steve Jobs. Think Apple Store meets Zac Efron. Weird, I know. Updated: More »

    An (Animatronic) Eye Is Upon You

    Disney's newest animatronic eye should give you the williest willies ever. It uses electromagnets for the most realistic eyes motions yet, despite having no actual moving parts, meaning it can be creepier for longer before wearing out. [Disney via BoingBong]

    Disney Brings Ebooks To Kids Without A Standalone Reader

    This is where I want a bright colored Kiddie Kindle with a color E-Ink screen. Disney has launched its Digital Books site. For $8.95 a month kids can access over 500 ebooks, including Winnie the Pooh and Hannah Montana stories. More »

    Buzz Lightyear Back From 468 Days In Spaaace

    How did I miss this? The Toy Story action figure returned on the space shuttle Discovery last Friday, after first launching aboard STS-124 on May 31st 2008. Here's a video of his time on the International Space Station: More »

    Robo-Lincoln Wants to Terminate John Wilkes Booth with Extreme Prejudice

    The D23 Expo is a Disney fan event, apparently, and at it was displayed a robotic Honest Abe from the Hall of Presidents. And man, without his clothes he looks intimidating as hell. [Paul Scheer]

    Comcast Could Be Quietly Preparing Plan to Control Pipes and Content

    Tea leaf-reading analysts are speculating this afternoon that Comcast is currently hoarding cash as part of an effort to revisit its 2003 spending spree days. You remember 2003, right? That was the year Comcast made a brash $54 billion bid for Disney. More »

    Disney Using Serious Science to Determine When You'll Look at Banner Ads

    Disney is spending millions on a research facility in Austin to see just what, physiologically speaking, makes us look at certain types of ads over others. More »

    Pixar's Animatronic Luxo Jr. Melts Our Hearts in Live Action

    Luxo Jr., the mascot of possibly the world's greatest film studio, Pixar, has been turned into an animatronic, real-life version that's remarkably smooth and lifelike. Well, as lifelike as a formerly-animated robot based on an old-school desk lamp can be. More »

    Buzz Lightyear Robot Responds to Voice Commands, Requires Little Imagination

    I checked out the new Buzz Lightyear robot today, which is selling this Fall for $130-$150, and it proved that robot toys still have a bit to go before they're really awesome. More »

    Disney Partners With Asus On Netpal Eee Netbook For Kids

    In what seems like a natural partnership, Asus and Disney have teamed up to develop the Disney Netpal—a netbook designed specifically for kids that's "fun, web-safe and easy to use." More »

    'Robobama' Gets Prepped for July 4th Debut at Disney World

    Disney technicians are hard at work on an incredibly-lifelike robotic version of President Obama. Dick Cheney is reportedly working on a virus to cause the robot to fail. More »

    Way More Boobs About to Make Disneyland Rollercoasters Exciting Again

    On many Disneyland coasters, there's a camera set up to automatically take your picture as you go down the biggest drop. They then try to sell you said picture at the end of the ride. Of course, this is a great opportunity to flash your boobs and have a bunch of kids see it, so Disney has always kept employees on hand dedicated to weeding out such salacious images before they hit the screens that visitors can see. No more! More »

    Hulu Wins TV on the Internet: Disney Officially Joins, Bringing ABC and Classic Movies

    Disney has finally, officially joined Hulu as equity partner, meaning you'll be able to watch ABC shows like Lost, Grey's Anatomy, The View and lots more. Movies are part of the package too. More »

    Disney Hulu Deal Coming Any Day Now, Really

    AllThingsD's Peter Kafka say the Hulu/Disney deal is really "ready for primetime" and should be announced in the next few days. That means ABC on Hulu—hello Lost—in addition to some Disney movies. Hulu wins. [AllThingsD]

    My First Album

    Who the hell is Richard Marx? Being another baby of Gizmodo, I'm sure I've still got a lot to learn about music, especially since I'm one of those kids who's completely brainwashed by The Mouse. More »

    Hulu and Disney Deal "Could Be Struck Any Day" Now

    Disney's talks with Hulu are wrapping up and a deal could come any day now, according to All Things D. Three of the four major networks will be on Hulu. So what's Disney bringing to Hulu? More »

    Mickey Mouse Autobot is More Than Meets the Eye

    I love Transformers and I love Disney, but it never occurred to me that they'd go together. Luckily for us, Japanese toy makers are much better than I at coming up with cross-promotional products. More »

    USB Stitch Belches to Keep You Moist

    Humidifiers can be a big help in the cold winter months, but spending $117 on a 'Lilo and Stitch'-themed version seems a little excessive if you ask me. On the plus side, it is USB powered, and kids would surely love the Disney vibe and the endless variety of juvenile jokes that it inspires. [GeekStuff4U via The Raw Feed]

    Wall-E on Blu-Ray Arrives November 18th

    WALL-E is set to land on Blu-Ray (and DVD) on November 18th, and will probably become the go-to showoff movie for high-end entertainment systems. The newest Pixar movie is a big favorite here at Gizmodo, and the 3-disc set looks like a must-have for Blu-Ray owners, with all kinds of great extras. More details after the jump. More »

    DIY Magic Mirror Makes Disney's Look Positively Low Tech

    This is for those of you who got a shiver when the magic mirror spoke to the witch in Snow White... or rather, it's the sort of thing that'll give your kids a shiver in this electronic age. A guy called Al has hooked up an old PC, an LCD screen, an Arduino board and a slew of sensors to give his daughters their very own interactive digital magic mirror. More »

    Disney Sucks the Magic Out of Films With 120 Pages of Blu-Ray Legalese

    Sleeping Beauty is Disney's first classic animated film to make its way to Blu-ray, and it's loaded with legitimately compelling BD-Live extra features. Format War Central tried to check these out, but got smacked with a 57 page EULA followed by a 63 page Privacy Policy before they could view any of them. Also upsetting: the new ending, in which Princess Aurora, upon waking up from Phillip's kiss resolves to become a copyright lawyer for a large electronics company. [Format War Central]

    Goofy's How to Hook Up Your Home Theater Guide

    I like the 1940s Disney animation shorts. They may not get to the hilarity level of Chuck Jones and Tex Avery's work at Warner, but some of them are really good. This How to Hook Up Your Home Theater short is new, but it feels like one of them and summarizes perfectly the dangers and absurd complexity of modern big home theaters, from impossible-to-open audio cable boxes to the sound system—with "center channel, left and right speakers, bit more to the left and bit more to the right speakers, surround speakers, surrounding surround speakers"— to huge screens.

    Netflix Fires Shots Across Traditional TV's Bow by Signing Deals with CBS, Disney

    Netflix has just inked deals with CBS and Disney to start adding shows to its streaming service the day after they air. The shows will include crime dramas your parents like such as CSI and NCIS as well as shows your younger cousins like such as Hannah Montana and The Suite Life of Zack & Cody. But more exciting than the specific shows is the precedent this sets: yet another reason to cancel cable. More »

    Remote Controlled "Ultimate Wall-E" Available For Pre-Order at $250

    Maybe it was a miscalculation, or perhaps it is Disney trying to capitalize on the success of the film, but the Ultimate Wall-E remote controlled robot is now available for pre-order at $250—about $60 more than originally expected. Not a big deal, though—this toy is so feature-packed, it is almost like having the real thing. [Disney]

    PS3 Gets Video Store and Rentals Tonight

    Unveiling the new Home, Sony revealed that video rentals and purchases are finally coming to the PS3. Video will be fully integrated into the PlayStation Store, which will have a new video section. And you can transfer them to your PSP via USB, and have them on multiple devices at once! Standard and high def, with rentals running $3-$6 and $10-$15 for purchases. It takes about an hour to download a two-hour movie. Most of the major studios are on board (Kotaku has a partial list in their liveblog), and it goes live tonight!

    Disney's Mickey Digital Camera Unintentionally Gives Toddlers a Goatse Facial

    Careful what kind of digital camera you give your kids from the Disney Store these days, otherwise the spawn of your loins could end up putting a goatse right up against their chubby cherubic faces. Then, their virgin innocence robbed from them, they'll probably go around leaving this 8MB camera in the darker places of your house, hoping to catch a few nether region images of their own (of poor quality, btw, this is actually a pretty poor camera to begin with). You've been warned. — Thanks, Chris, we think? [The Disney Store]
