Siggraph Asia

Hey all - Months back Matt Parker wanted some help to pick up the Wiremap project and transform it into his own pet project, the Lumarca (which rolls of the tongue so much nicer, no?). Since then he and I have been in constant collaboration developing this technology.

He's submitted the project to Siggraph Asia, and it's been accepted!  So he, myself, and Elliot Woods (developer from England) are heading out to Tokyo to exhibit in December of this year.

If any of you are heading out to Siggraph Asia, or if you are gonna be in Asia, stop by and say hi!

Mini Wiremap

Built a minneature version of the wiremap.  I haven't uploaded any video yet, but here are some photos! http://picasaweb.google.com/hwang.al/WiremapMini#

Should speak for itself!

G1 madness!

I just have to let the world know that I got my g1 and I'm kinda having an awesome time with it. I'm blogging from it right now, actually. I know that this post isn't really pertinent to the stuff that I usually talk about. I do hope, though, that this upgrade in technology translates to more of a web presence and more consistent blogging.

New Podcast Video -> Music to the Dance

Check it!

The dancer is Houdoken, a crazy talented liquid-head / popper.  All of the sounds are from the Free Sound project - and almost the whole video comes from this one sound.  Thanks for the sound, Melack!  Many thanks to the all of you.

Wiremap done in Seattle by a Microsoft Employee

So during the opening at the exhibition in Seattle, I met with Melinda Minch, an employee at Microsoft currently on their Seadragon project.  She informed me that one of her colleagues, Mike Rorke, had a great time with the wiremap instructable and built one of his own. I finally got in touch with him, and he's uploaded a Flickr set.  Check it out!
