After taking ergonomics at work very seriously, I finally got around to fixing my home office. The last missing piece was a good chair. With my Aeron living at work and nothing solid at Staples, I broke down and got another Herman Miller. I wanted something smaller than the Aeron that would act as more of a lab chair and found the perfect solution with the Caper.

Eric and I put together a frame for the TouchKit FTIR multitouch screen last night. We used 80/20 and a few custom cut angle brackets. The favored vision system for use with it so far has been reacTIVision. Note, though, that it assumes the screen fills the whole camera view.

I had a blast collaborating with Eric Gradman last month on an interactive art installation named ArtFall. There’s a complete description here, and a downloadable iPhone encoded video here.
Update: Artfall was covered in Makezine, Hackaday, Matt Cutts blog and a French blog.
