so, i have installed a podcast plugin for this blog but haven’t had time to really look into setting it up, but subscribing to a video podcast would be pretty cool, know anyone with a video ipod who does that sort of thing? is it just a waste of time?

I don’t think this is the kind of thing we’d really put up very often, but the darkly morbid humor is absolutely something i like.
One interesting meme i find going on with this video, is that several people are remixing it to different music.
Here is a link to a version with a band called atomship, and one with a track by blink 182.
This kind of ‘personalization’ of media is quite interesting.

Sensual Interfaces
Amazing video work by Christopher Woebken
Technology is getting more and more removed from the human scale. How could we take advantage and create new and more interesting interfaces bringing back the human element?
Nanotechnology seems very promising, but if you look at what is happening in the market it currently only enhances products in a physical way making them stronger and lighter. Possibly we will see new organic approaches that could radically change how we think about Nanotechnology and how we apply it in products.
How would we interact with organic & grown electronics and how would this affect or lives and work? In this project I experimented with several different organic materials trying to explore new possibilities for more pleasurable interface experiences.
