Tyler, Dan, dad and I exhibited our laser maze (for the first time to the public!) last night at the February Mindshare. The object was to traverse the room without breaking any of the beams, ring a bell, and then navigate back to the start. Attendees pretended to be [take your pick of cinema's security-breaching thieves] employing everything from commando crawls to acrobatics to get across. Thanks to Seth Margolin for an excellent filming and editing job on the video!
Had a great time at BIL in Long Beach this past weekend. The presentations were on a very broad range of topics… open source architecture to cyborgs, politics to consciousness, a girl even presented on blow jobs. A contingent of Mindshare labs (Dougie, Eric and I) setup an installation in the interactive room and gave a talk Saturday afternoon titled “Interactive Spaces”. I highly recommend BIL as an alternative to TED (seriously).
The Interactive Display Conference in San Jose 4/21-4/23 is coming up fast. It was announced today that Jeff Han will be keynoting! See my slot and the rest of the line up here.
