Transform an existing staircase in a subway staircase next to an escalator into a step-a-thon playing piano, and people will walk. Add fun changes common behavior!
Reminds me of Bruno Taylors Playful Spaces Bus Stop Swing Set.

After lunch, came the carnival ride known as the Regurgitator! Supposedly it’ flings a human around up to 5 g’s… that’s when the face goes pale!
James Patten shows off his tangible AudioPad project from several years ago. He’s made several adjustments to it since I first played with it in 2004 at the MIT MediaLab.
Bre Pettis introduces us to his very own DIY home made 3D printer. Assembled just like an FDM printer which is basically a hot glue gun printing thin layers of an object at a time. This one doesn’t print supportive structures so it is a bit limited on printable shapes.
Bruce Shapiro brought over some of his classic egg shell printers. Plop a pen in, create a design, and watch the magic unfold!
Obama egg print! Sweeet!
Check out Bruce Shapiros work on this video:
Michael Dubno made his own Sand Table piece . Awesome job Mike. I’m going to make one now..maybe with that wetless silicon sand stuff..perhaps an under water version =)
Sweet Heather Knight shows off her Sensate Bear project exploring touch and social behavior. Yah!
A stroll through the Chinese Garden before Dinner!
Zap! Cooking hot dogs with two Large Tesla Coil Towers! Crossed off my list! Crunchy on the inside, chilled on the out, but just so damn cool!!
ZiiiziiizaaaapP!
The Gadgetoff 2009 Giftbag with tons of goodies and books! Thank you Gadgetoff!
Quick fun picture of Heather Knight and Jeff Han hanging out in the rain while we wait for a taxi after dinner. Heathers saying “look its raining, yah!” and Jeffs thinking, “multi-touch rain, hmmm, the pixels come to you, what can I do!”.
Good times all! The BEST Gadgetoff ever! Looking forward to Gadgetoff 2010 when more chaos is revealed!
I found the Viktor & Rolf Spring 2010 collection rather disruptive. Cool!

I’m quite familiar with the manufacturing world, but I’ve never seen a smart robot arm made for picking up pancakes for stacking! (FLexpicker). Seriously this robotic arm is quite impressive. Let’s yank this arm out and use it as a poker dealer, street trash picker, or something like a burger flipper! Keep the idea flowing with fast smart automated robots, just like the fun Robocoaster!
