My collaborator Robin Meier and I are at it again, this time with leafcutter ants.  Robin's been experimenting with the ants in a lab outside paris, while I explore how to build our colony of small friends a welcoming foraging scenario.  Below, a prezi of some notes we're taking.

This work will be presented at Palais de Tokyo in July of 2011.

Ray Kampmeier (undergraduate EECS student at UMN) and I are working on a robust and complete solution for working with Digi's Xbee modules and Max.

Working with 2.5 Series radios, the present pre-alpha version allows for sending remote messages to a remote-wireless xbee (configured as AT Router/Endpoint) and local-USB-connected xbee  (configured as API coordinator).  

My XBee Playground Blog shows a record of our progress, while this post includes links to the necessary Max patches and XBee profiles.  

More coming soon.....

Below, a document containing an exhustive listing of the "Review of Press" for the 2008 and 2010 ZERO 1 New Media Biennial.  The festival was covered by dozens of local, national and internationl channels. 

I took MAW to ZERO 1 in 2008 for a number of urban interventions (see videos here).  In 2010, MAW and I were commissioned to produce a new work for Absolute Zero: Lavish Martyr/Exquisite Corpse by ZERO 1 and performed in San Jose on Sep. 17th, 2010.

Many thanks to ZERO 1 for sharing these document.

Below, two documents containing an exhustive listing of the "Review of Press" for the exhibition Dynasty, held at Palais de Tokyo and Musée d'Art Modern.  Robin Meier and I showed two of our collaborative works Truce and A Tentative Call to the other at the two museums.

Many thanks to the staff at the two museums for collecting and sharing the two documents below.  It led to priceless finds like this one...
