Death Guild tonight
For any SF people reading this, several of us will be heading out to Death Guild tonight around 10 pm, if you want to join in. I've been in the city for nearly 6 months and not been out to a goth club yet, so tis high time to remedy that.
In other random news, I was exposed to this rather odd device via my Material Worlds class:
It's a glowing orb that changes color based on how the stock market is doing - or according to any other ambient data you can set it to (weather, traffic, etc) which it monitors via a wireless device. It's manufactured by Ambient Devices, which makes all sorts of interesting little gadgets that turn your physical environment into a vehicle for registering digital information. Including an umbrella whose handle lights up whenever rain is predicted, so you won't forget it. And the glowy things are stupidly hypnotic.
