In my capacity as a student at NYU’s Interactive Telecommunications Program, last week I stopped by The Engadget Show with my fellow classmate, Danne Woo. Danne was showing off his impressive Circuit Board, the skateboard that has kick-powered ground effects lighting and I gave a live demo of my Descriptive Camera project. Other projects featured on the show included Inessah Selditz and Deqing Sun’s Plinko Poetry and Nick Yulman’s Bricolo mechanical music system. There’s also a great segment about Project Aether‘s high altitude balloon launches to observe the aurora borealis in Alaska. Thanks to Tim Stevens and Brian Heater for a great show!
