One of the most fun aspects of working in new media is the cross-pollination of science and art. Anyone who's ever built things with Lego's as a kid has got to love the new sensor-driven robots- Mindstorm NXT from Lego. I can't wait to figure out how to hotwire one of these for my installations.
The Washington Post ran a story Saturday about the community that is helping to promote the new Mindstorm.
I've been gradually turning my Theremin into a MIDI interface for detecting motion in a space. Jitter is performing extremely well and I hope to have some details up soon to help others who are working with heterodyne oscillation devices that can be feed proximity data into Max.
