I tried it out and it was very impressed by the speed and accuracy of the motion tracking (he did
flicker a bit and have problems when my lights were to bright, so be prepared to work a bit to
make him happy). This is a Flash implementation of augmented reality created by Digital Pictures Interactive; all it takes
is your web browser, a webcam, and a printed marker symbol. Now, would it kill the little guy to
smile every once in a while?!
It seems to be based on the ARToolKit
developed by Dr. Hirokazu Kato of the University of Washington.
I enjoy Augmented Reality much more than Virtual Reality because 99% of the AR environment is the
real world in all of its infinitely detailed glory and I can accept a few lower fidelity objects
overlaid here and there. Even the highest quality VR worlds still feel much less than real in a
way that usually pulls me out of the experience.

Musician/producer Pete Drake performs his song "Forever" with his steel guitar through a classic
talkbox. A surreal and beautiful performance - the talkbox in use here is cool in and of itself!
The freestanding design with handle is inspiring and simple talkboxes are pretty easy to make.

Silly, but nonetheless cool, steampunk telephone. The coolest thing is the punch cards you use to
call a number. Okay, that's also the silliest thing about it. As Apartment Therapy says, it would
give new meaning to the term "calling card." I hope one of those dials displays signal strength.

Julie talked a bit about the fun of working with PMC as the workshop wound
down.
PMC is a quick way to express yourself in metal. You can do everything with it, people are amazed
at how easy it is and how quickly they can make something really beautiful. It's not
intimidating. I think anyone can do it. You can teach a nine year old how to work creatively with
it.
Together they made a whole mess of neat designs with the clay. Some people used molds that Julie
made from shells, rocks, coins, buttons and lots of other cool found objects. Some made their own
designs by rolling out the PMC and removing or adding material. When the clay dries to its green
state, then gets touched up to remove any imperfections and strengthen the shape.
Once they are pretty much dried, they are then fired them in the kiln at high temperature between
1110 - 1830 degrees, depending and a hold time from 10 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the type of metals. When
they come out, they look pretty much the same as when they went in, but after they are burnished
and sanded, they come out to be a nice silver object.
There are a lot of places to get PMC, mostly from catalogs or online. Julie really speaks highly
about her interactions with Whole Lotta Whimsy.
Have you used PMC? Do you have any experiences in teaching creative techniques to people? Post
your thoughts in the comments!

Nick Hall's made this very excellent time & temperature display - complete with weather
animations -The project uses 4 RGB LED Matrix Modules from Sparkfun Electronics, and is
controlled by an Arduino microprocessor board with 16k RAM and Ethernet shield for internet
connectivity to get time and weather data.
The Arduino and LED modules made it pretty easy to stick together. I just need to find a cool box
to put it in.
I am working on getting it scrolling tweets and messages! Aah, the joy of
LEDs - well done! [via Sparkfun]

In March of 2008, the Windows Embedded Group launched the SPARK Your
Imagination program. This was the first hobbyist-focused program for the Windows Embedded
product family. Before the SPARK program, the software cost $1000 per seat and you had to go
through a distributor to get it. Not very friendly to weekend code warriors and hard to compete
with free/Linux hobbyist software.
On Oct 27th (just a few weeks back), Microsoft launched a contest to bring attention to the
SPARK program. The contest is entitled SPARKs Will
Fly. It is based on the same concept as The Imagine Cup
in that it is round-based and built around a theme; in this case the theme is “Build the
home of the future.” Microsoft will advance 50 people to Round 2 and give each of them a
VIA Pico-ITX Artigo board ($500
worth of kit) to develop their idea. Microsoft will select 3 finalist from this 50.
They’ll compete on stage at ESC Silicon Valley 2009 for the top prize. The winner takes
home $15,000. Check it out, I hope a Maker wins!

"guerilla gardening" that's gaining traction. Here're a few examples:

Hey Makers, This is David J. Neff and you may know me as the MAKE Halloween blogger, but after meeting all
the guys and gal from MAKE at Maker Faire Austin 2008 they thought I should join the party that's
still going on. So I have been asked to build some of the kits from the Maker Shed and document how hard or easy they are to
make along with some tips. Now I have made Halloween props for several years but none of those as
complicated as some of the stuff in the Maker Shed. So tune in as an average guy takes on some
truly cool projects. Feel free to leave me comments or shortcuts as I build and post projects.My
first project was the LED Clock.

ACCRC is in desperate straits. The Bay Area electronics recycler is going through tough times
with an emergency re-org and a lack of funds to pay taxes and healthcare for its employees. Its
own internal problems are compounded by a sudden drop in the price of scrap metal. ACCRC has been
a friend to Make and Maker Faire, and generally anyone in the Bay Area who uses computers and
electronics and wants to make sure they are recycled properly.
The good news about falling metal prices is that scrapyards who couldn't be bothered to sell
random bits of metal to Makers may now think otherwise. However, this is a scant silver lining
when you consider the effect on recycling businesses that need sane metal prices to stay in
business. We're not talking a tiny drop here, either: prices
on some metals have dropped 80% in the last 3 months.

Via Discovery
News:
Scientists in California have developed a software algorithm that automatically creates a
physical key based solely on a picture of one, regardless of angle or distance. The project,
called Sneakey, was meant to warn people about the dangers of haphazardly placing keys in the
open or posting images of them online.
...
When Savage and his students searched online photo sharing Web sites, like Flickr, they easily
found thousands of photos of keys with enough definition to replicate. A more social person could
simply use their cell phone camera to snap a quick picture of stray keys on a table top.
...
the researchers set up a camera with a zoom lens 200 feet away. Using those photos, they created
a working key 80 percent on their first try. Within three attempts they opened every lock.
So, if I'm understanding this correctly, you could have a camera with zoom hundreds of feet away
from a door and leave it recording. If you've achieved the right angle, you could capture a few
frames of the key pre-insertion-into-the-door that let you then make your own copy!

Bleep Labs and Loud
Objects have joined forces to bring the noise in the form of Bit Blob "the first being of
pure noise" - The Bit Blob is a digital noise maker that's controlled by connecting its contacts
together, allowing you to bend your way through unlimited sonic madness. You can also connect
LEDs, audio outputs, or other Bit Blobs between control pins.
Only 30 will be made for this holiday season. Oh man, I hope those little guys aren't
