This is a call to all my friends, family, and anyone else to make a donation to the Red Cross, or whatever other relief organization you prefer, to offer aid and support to those suffering the horrifying effects of the tsunami.

I’ve decided to try to be a tad more regular with my postings to my blog. If for no other reason than if something interesting happens, I’ll be in the habit of writing about it.
Yesterday I went to the ITP Winter Show. As some may know, ITP — NYU’s Interactive Telecommunications Program — is one of the Graduate programs I am applying to for next fall. It was cool to check out what kind of stuff people were coming up with.
For the most part, I was generally impresssed. Probably the coolest things were music and sound based, like Jamie Allen’s boombox — a physical sound creation device; a suitcase outfitted with tons of sensors that detect motion and vibration, and a bluetooth connection to set off various sound effects. Picking up the box, banging it around, caused various sound effects to play (against a backdrop of airport noises — ‘Please do not leave bags unattended’).
While the sound projects were cool, I was a bit disappointed with some of the video stufff — as someone mentioned, everything’s a frickin’ mirror. I told my friend Theo I was convinced that the entire show was meant only to subtly influence my desire for large flat-screen televisions (as if I needed THAT)
All in all a good show — and was definitely encouraging in my decision to apply there; I guess if I do end up going I’d hope to put my own particular interests to the fore — performance, interactivity, fun.
