Adam, Scott and I have been bashing away at getting our XBee friends talking. They do! Sometimes. Occasionally. When they feel like [...]

Sustainable Final - Continuing the DoorCharger

I’ve been looking in depth into the ideas we’d been discussing this semester in Sustainable Energy, thinking a bit more about the essays from The Bottomless Well, and considering my past projects in this class — and above all, I’ve been thinking about what I can do for a final that would have the biggest [...]

Pong!

My pong paddle (and housing), by doryexmachina.
Right, so I should have written this up EONS ago, but I got caught up in doing everything else, then going to SXSW, [...]

DfC/NetObjects progress!

So, I may have blogged about this a little before spring break — but since so much has changed in that time, let’s pretend I didn’t and start all over again. Sheesh, I’ve been bad about documenting this semester. New leaf begins: NOW!
I’m working with Adam and Scott on creating a game [...]

Back from SXSW

So I’ve been back for a little over a week now, and I’m so far behind in my blogging of SXSW events (let alone ITP work in general) that it’s embarassing. Let me do the quick version and say that my Flickr shots are all here, and thankfully, Summer did a way better write-up [...]

MAKE showed us some love with a post about our NetObject pong projects (with a photo from yours truly), story here.
Erm.  I should probably do a writeup of that project now…

Sustainable Finals

It’s something of a painful reminder that the semester is nearing its end, but we’ve been told it’s time to declare our finals ideas for Sustainable Energy, which is probably a good idea given that we only have a few weeks left to actually plan and execute them. Eek.
We were assigned a packet to [...]

Urban Computing our way into… Wired?!

Jesus H. Crap!  I realize this is last week’s news, but, um we Urban-Computing-type-folk made it into Bruce Sterling’s Beyond the Beyond?
[looky!]

Grant proposal - putting babies on spikes

One of the excellent things about taking the Internship in Technology and Social Justice has been Marianne’s leadership and the bi-weekly class she leads for those taking the internship. Each meeting, we go over our various internship positions, share the best-and-worst of the job since we met last, and then talk a bit about [...]

Asus Ecobook!

I don’t care that it’s not a Mac.  I don’t care that it’s a zillion dollars.  It’s just the coolest idea, and looks WICKED to boot.
