1. It’s funny — people are saying so much about the /federated social web not being a “Facebook Killer”, and yet it’s killed my usage of FB beyond occasional passive consumption.

  2. Human Theremin using conductive ink

    Using hand built circuitry I was able to turn my sister into a fully functioning theremin, the idea being that eventually the equipment could be used by dancers to create music that relies entirely on choreography and body movement to generate sound as they dance. In this way the visual performance and the audio become intrinsically linked and thus the viewer is able to ‘see’ the sound as it is created.
