Sophie & I ran a 3-day wearable technology bootcamp using LilyPad Arduino for 11-13 year-olds at Aberystwyth for www.Technocamps.com - a project led by Swansea University in partnership with the Universities of Bangor, Aberystwyth and Glamorgan that inspires young people aged 11-19 to attend technology workshops on a range of computing-based topics.

Simple and unimaginative one, it's the multimedia corner in my flat. TV, BT Vision box, PS3, and surround sound.
The interfaces that lead us into cyberspace prove that one cannot detach technology from desire. Digital technologies promise to transcend familiar reality and to connect us to the paradise that reality has taken from us. Down with the detours and delays of reality: let us have instant gratification! What we cannot have in reality, we can have via the fantasy screen. As a “consensual hallucination” cyberspace would be the utopic, new ideal world.
Interface Fantasy: A Lananian Cyborg Ontology – Andre Nusselder
In the virtual world of Second Life, where status is often accrued by having the best collection of sexually appealing avatars, desire and its ultimate physical endpoint, sex (or in this case cybersex), prevails. Cybersex is “more than role play it is the creation of a shared fantasy.” Avatars are hollow – avatars are pure, avatars are clean, avatars have no orifices. They do not leak, shit, sweat, rot – there is no inconvenience to their bodies. And if an avatar has no orifices then sex in Second Life is safer than in real life – the user is “freed from the burden of the body.” Many criticisms have been levelled at Second Life for its high number of sex, porn and exotic dance Sims. Contemporary art critic and curator Domenico Quaranta said of in world existence, “life revolves around the banal repetition of real-life rituals (having sex, going dancing, and attending parties, openings and conferences) and the same principles: private property, wealth and consumption.” As the promotional video for dedicated cybersex virtual world “The Red Light Center” attests, “Be who you want to be…without the hassle”. Cybersex or ‘getting off online’, in Second Life is a form of immersive role play – a mixed reality happening in that it more often than not, one could imagine, elicits physical action in its users offline.
Whilst filming the “sex-scene” for this work my mind flickered between the ridiculousness of two digital bodies’ glitching against each other and the surreal feeling that behind that bunch of pixels a real person is operating and text chatting or, somewhat disturbingly, perhaps even masturbating. In the end I created two avatars – one my own and one an idealised male – and operated them both simultaneously using two computers to create the desired film output for projection. It was quite fitting as in the end, playing dolls, are we not just virtually fucking ourselves anyway? Can we really create intimacy in these new manufactured spaces?

A Sharpie pen being held up by a two inch square block of aerogel (also called "solid smoke" or "frozen smoke"). Note that the absorption and scattering properties of the aerogel make it look hazy blue against the black background, and slightly yellow against the paper. The aerogel block here weighs approximately 500 milligrams.

We used all of this at our reference staff meeting. Good grief!
For some reason, the internet connection in the buildings where the library is located almost always poops out during out meetings, at about the same time of day. It occurred to me yesterday that maybe we have a satellite blind spot at that time. Could be, I suppose. We have a new little device however that used cell phone signals to access the internet, and that made a handy backup.

this is my first cellphone (yes, i'm a late adopter). i can make and receive calls and managed to take my own picture to use as wallpaper, but don't ask me to text or do anything else.
worst thing about it: it's complicated.
best thing about it: it shuts off easily.

The upstairs of a newly visited abandoned farmhouse outside of Hamilton. Some real treasures were found in this house, making it all the more compelling wondering why it was all left behind. Perimeter doors are wide open and swallows spent last season nesting inside the house.
On July 30, 2015 Kennedy Space Center Director Bob Cabana, right, signed a Space Act agreement with John Pederson, Board Chairman and CEO of Light Visually Transceiving (LVX) System Corp., to facilitate a collaboration in developing a potentially ground-breaking technology in electronic communications. The partnership will license researchers at Kennedy to study and develop new applications for visual light communication. Similar to high-speed communication known as Wi-Fi, visible light communication, or VLC, is a wireless method using light emitting diodes referred to as Li-Fi. Photo credit: NASA/Kim Shiflett
