[thesis prototyping] :: techmmmology

So my new concept is geo-locative sensor tracking with a modular pack. Basically you pick and choose what you want to track (ie carbon monoxide, dust, noise pollution, alcohol[?], light pollution, or methane gas), and this data is recorded. Then you transfer it to an online database, and can watch a personal log of your own data collection over time. Last step is to connect individuals to each other via the database, so you can see how your friend in Beijing experiences his/her journey from home to work every day, and relate on a new level. more...

I ended up creating a world-wide collaborative drawing tool... read more

[pluto-festival] :: new friends

I returned from Belgium about 12 hours ago, but I still haven't gotten a chance to sleep for more than 4 hours since about 3 days ago. It has been an amazing adventure, and definitely an experience that I want to repeat, as soon as possible, again and again. I was invited to exhibit at the Pluto Festival in Opwijk, Belgium about 2 months ago, by Pieter Coussement who saw my spatialized Umbrella project on hack a day. more more more.
