Design issues:
  • expandable site map necessary
  • each major concept should have a nice intro page, focusing on getting the point of the research across. (should use diagrams and images)
  • publications should be linked prominently in intro pages
  • code, programs, etc should be linked prominently
  • videos and other goodies should be linked prominently




    stuff i am working on over the summer besides website redesign with james
  • building a wearable computer based on the eyetop...
  • using it to mediate my audio reality... realtime filters, effects,
  • using the above setup to sample environmental noises, and use them in electronic music
  • setting up the unit as a language translation device to be used realtime next year when i'm teaching english abroad.
  • glogging (is anyone else doing this this summer?)
  • the "sousveillance underground" project... taking pictures/video of the subway system... attempting to make the point that sousveillance may be more useful than surveillance in regards to keeping the public safe.
  • oCursor project if anyone is interested...
