Bran Ferren

Bran Ferren's speech at the HP TechCon in Florida last month. He preaches the gospel of storytelling. No powerpoint, "powerpoint is evil."

Link.

His company is Applied Minds. For your reference, they did the walking animatronic dinosaur for disney even though Imagineering gets credit for building it.

Bio Mapping

thanks Scott...

Bio Mapping is a research project which explores new ways that we as individuals can make use of the information we can gather about our own bodies. Instead of security technologies that are designed to control our behaviour, this project envisages new tools that allows people to selectively share and interpret this information.

Cleary, I am not the only one to explore the mobile body as a source for topological data. Perhaps I might contact Christian Nold and attempt some mutually beneficial information exchange.

At the very least I need to get a site up...
