Lots and lots of reading.
It’s good, now that I finally feel like I’m working on something I really want to do, and I keep finding more relevant reading. Of course, time spent reading is not time spent building, but hey.
Right now, I’m reading up on a lot of the Urban Atmospheres papers from Intel Research (mostly Eric Paulos and Tom Jenkins), some MIT Media Labs folks, Noise by Jacques Attali, and re-reading Low Life by Luc Sante for inspiration. Of course, everything we’re reading in Social Facts bleeds into this as well, so as we talk about trust in society, I try to work that in.
So far so good: just ordered a pile of parts and planning to find more shortly. By week’s end I’m hoping to have a few things plugged into a breadboard, and by next week I’m aiming to have a prototype blinking.
