Thursday - The day I present! |
|
| Larry and Me presenting Pocket Virtual Worlds at the Educator's QuickTake at 8am. Pictures courtesy of Genevieve. And there were more than 30 people there!! | 
 |
| The Educator's Incubator had a some physical stuff like this. |  |
| And a DDR Machine. |  |
| This was a nice way for kids to shoot and edit video 'manually'. Its rare to see something with so much Industrial Design applied to it. Refreshing really. | 
 |
| Afterwards I had to rush to get to the Science Center to see the make of The Polar Express in IMAX 3D. |  |
| It was dumb luck to run into Mark Geldman from StereoGraphics (we just purchased one of their products) and he was very helpful. |  |
| Free Popcorn (and water)!! What a class act. |  |
| As we await more busses to arrive - it filled up completely! |  |
| John Gilbert from Dolby Labs was sitting in front of me explaining to his neighbor all about Stereoscopy - he was very good :) And also very friendly. |  |
| As many know my true passion is for photographing castles. And here we have Clayton Castle. Thanks for letting me shoot you. |  |
| Dave and the Chair of the Educator's Program. |  |
| The Usual Suspects - The Student Volunteers (well some of them). | 
 |
| Jonathan Wilkinson and Dave. |  |
| Jonathan's Interactive Panoramic Video. |  |
| MK wouldn't let me take her picture. Some Communications Director. Actually she was very nice and gave me a pin. |  |
| And this guys is freaking fantastic. Her words not mine. |  |
| Back on the exhibition floor. My friend from eyeon was wearing this badge. I guess the people giving out badges don't pay a lot of attention. I'm told there were worse. |  |
| Still love the Z-Corp 3D printers. They just get better every year. |  |
| Look at that - I mean wouldn't you want one? |  |
| John Myers is now doing some self help stuff - let's help him out by visiting www.authoritybooks.com. |  |
| The SIGGRAPH 2005 hat! (And yeah that's Dave) |  |
| On the exhibition floor the show ended with bagpipes and in the main hall with a violin. |  |
| Later we met up with the Detroit Chapter. These guys know how to party - I think the room was spinning. That's Scott. Oh - we were at the revolving restaurant at the Biltmore. Still these guys rock (even though they are from Detroit). |  |
|
Well with the show 'officially' over I am going to spend Friday in meetings and studio visits. See you in Boston!! |
