neat stuff
can't wait for this technology to be available! It just looks fun :)
NYU's Jeff Han has developed a multi-touch interactive screen system, and had it on display at Siggraph this year in Boston. I was lucky enough to get to play around with it. It was pretty amazing to try, soon i bet mice will be obsolete. Reminded me of the Minority Report.

I'm studying the effect of technology on our culture in a media theory class right now. We have been reading some Marshall McLuhan, and I find it pretty interesting. One of his theories talks about how we have come from a literary culture to a global village society since the advent of television and radio.. Although he wrote most of his important work in the 60s, it's pretty incredible how closely his theories spelled out what would eventually begin to happen with the development of the internet.
Is technology a good thing is the question of the class? I like it. It makes my job easier... or does it? It's a little early to tell what the effect is... good or bad.
