I turn my vehicle beneath the river, West from South</p>
<p>Through the airwaves -<br />
people never read the airwaves<br />
do we only feed the airwaves<br />
or stamp them out of street level?<br />
Airwaves &#8211; the dampness of the wind<br />
the airwaves &#8211; the tension of the skin<br />
the airwaves</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Whatever happened to Stereoscopic Video anyway?</p>
<p>Whatever happened. Well, let us think seriously about this. Some things move on. Value is fleeting in a liquid environment like this.</p>
<p>Technology has been the most liquid of all stages of societal development.</p>
<p>Cross your eyes so that the two middle images become three, and then kind of watch the middle. Or you can use <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoscopy">stereoscopic glasses</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We all know the Zip file. We use it all the time to compress larger chunks of data into smaller ones.</p>
<p>But what about Zip files in the era of ubiquitious computing? Won&#8217;t Zip files begin to appear everywhere?</p>
<p><a title="zip-hoodie-spectacular by caseorganic, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/caseorganic/3204428919/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3464/3204428919_3c5b2c5b52.jpg" alt="zip-hoodie-spectacular" width="363" height="376" /></a></p>
<p>Well, now you can take YOUR OWN zip file everywhere with the new ZIP SHIRT!</p>
<p><a title="Zip Shirts by caseorganic, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/caseorganic/3200450081/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3345/3200450081_32044246dd.jpg" alt="Zip Shirts" width="230" height="345" /></a></p>
<p>That&#8217;s right&#8230;our new Zip shirts come in two different flavors &#8212; male and female! So whether you&#8217;re male, or your female&#8230;you too can have one of these lovely shirts&#8230;</p>
<p><a title="Zip Shirts by caseorganic, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/caseorganic/3200450189/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3411/3200450189_5587e4cf24.jpg" alt="Zip Shirts" width="213" height="320" /></a></p>
<p>Show the world how you zip! Or just show your social network! Zip shirts are made of awesome materials that hurt the environment 60% less than other shirts (of course, they still hurt the environment, so if you&#8217;re upset about that we apologize). They also contain 20% less fat!</p>
<p><a title="Zip Shirts by caseorganic, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/caseorganic/3200450071/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3476/3200450071_d3ece10cd5.jpg" alt="Zip Shirts" width="255" height="337" /></a></p>
<p>Shirts will be sent to you two weeks after you order them. We hand craft them ourselves, so we&#8217;re sorry that our handicraft does not measure up to the Henery Ford assembly mode model you&#8217;re used to.</p>
<p><a title="zip-hoodie-caseorganic by caseorganic, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/caseorganic/3200425153/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3104/3200425153_53efcacdb1.jpg" alt="zip-hoodie-caseorganic" width="450" height="374" /></a></p>
<p>How can you purchase one? Simply comment below and we&#8217;ll E-mail you some cool stuff. Like prices &#8212; and we&#8217;ll ask for your address, probably your shirt size too. We only accept PayPal right now, which is cool and kinda safe, but mostly lame.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently, I&#8217;ve been studying some of the interesting things that have come out of The Media Lab at MIT. One of the most interesting departments is the Tangible Media Group. So here&#8217;s a video on TaPuMa. </p>
<p>TaPuMa is a digital, tangible public map that allows people to use their own belongings or the everyday objects they carry with them to access relevant, just-in-time information and to find locations of places or people. TaPuMa envisions that conventional maps can be augmented by using the unique identities and affordances of the everyday objects. </p>
<p><object width="445" height="364"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/l4bz9shk8UU&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;color1=0x2b405b&#038;color2=0x6b8ab6&#038;border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/l4bz9shk8UU&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;color1=0x2b405b&#038;color2=0x6b8ab6&#038;border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="445" height="364"></embed></object></p>
<p>The TaPuMa system uses a table-top environment where map and dynamic content is projected on the table. A camera mounted above the table identifies and tracks the locations of the objects on the surface. A software program identifies and registers the location of objects on the table. On the basis of identifications of the objects, the software program provides relevant information visualization to be shown on the table. The projector augments the table and objects on the table with projected digital information from overhead along with the map. The project explores a novel interaction mechanism where physical objects are used as interfaces to digital information. TaPuMa allows users to acquire information through tangible media, the things they carry.</p>
<p>TqaPuMa was developed by Pranav Mistry of The Media Laboratory at MIT. You can see some of his other projects at <a href="http://www.pranavmistry.com">http://www.pranavmistry.com</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lets face it &#8211; it is pretty important to watch historical material dealing with a subject or ecosystem one is currently immersed in. This is why I&#8217;ve chosen to post this video. Hopefully it will serve as an amusing and relevant history lesson/historical perspective by the founders of one of the most interesting places currently in existence (both historically and presently), the MIT Media Lab. Enjoy! (Especially his comments on privacy in the Internet age that begin around 14:50).</p>

<p>While driving around Denver, Colorado, my family and I saw a sign for a free candy factory tour. We called the number to get the address and arrived a half hour later.</p>
<p>However, it was Christmas eve, and there were no tours happening anymore.</p>
<p>But the owner saw our faces and took us on a behind-the scenes tour where he showed us all kinds of cool equiptment and let us sample secret candy they&#8217;ve been working on at the factory.</p>
<p>See the <a href="http://blog.makerlab.org/2008/12/join-us-on-a-candy-factory-tour/">post that goes along with this video</a>.</p>
