Robot Sub Competition Winners Announced
Although I was deeply disappointed at the absence of robot sharks with frickin laser beams attached to their heads, the 11th International Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Competition was still awesome. Robotic subs competed in a variety of tasks showing off their technological prowess. This year a team from the University of Maryland emerged victorious unseating the […]
Toyota Geeks It Up Segway Style – Winglet
As if Segway wasn’t lame enough, Toyota joined the lineup of Segway’s knockoffs with a gimp little entry called Winglet. Winglet sounds more like a Maxi Pad knockoff for tiny cooters but I digress. Since Sony scrapped most of its robotics division (yes kids they shot Aibo the dog), Toyota stepped in and picked up […]

Beer Shooter
One of the world’s most pretentious, French (yeah redundant) contemporary art museums, Palais de Tokyo, is hosting an expo named Superdome. Such poignant name was chosen because the Louisiana Superdome represents a “bridge that gaps entertainment and disaster” *cough, pretentious*. Yet in this expo littered with shallow symbolism and triteness something stood out – a […]
Bloodsucking Telecom Looking For Suckers
In another news of the weird and pseudo-sciency-shit-that-should-work-but-doesn’t, a South Korean phone company, SK Telecom, offers a phone feature that promises to repel mosquitoes. For $2.50 US per play people can play a high-pitched sound that claims to scare the bugs. From personal experience the only way to avoid mosquitoes is to have serious netting […]
Blast From The Past
The Touched Echo is a minimal medial intervention in public space. The visitors of the Brühl’s Terrace (Dresden, Germany) are taken back in time to the night of the major air raid on 13th February 1945, when the Allied forces bombed the crap out of Dresden. In their role as a performers, visitors put themselves […]
