Comment on That Thing You Use by Patrick Williams

I love that idea--the materiality of others' workspaces is also another thing I like to peek into, and is so intertwined with the digital. If you haven't seen it, From the Desk Of at Real Pants is a series that shares a lot with The Setup, but is focused on workspace (full disclosure: my desk is there!).

I like this idea. I am interested in productivity maximization as well. I have one suggestion. Our immediate environment can be just as crucial to productivity as software and hardware. Perhaps it would be good to include elements of our physical workspaces that support digital/computer-based work in this discussion.

I’d love to hear more about VPNs and potential complications both on and off campus. Thanks, Noah!

This sounds awesome, Chris! I think people would definitely be interested in you bringing it.

This sounds like a great idea to me. I’ve just been tinkering with an Arduino telegraph (like this one code.google.com/archive/p/tworsekey/), and would be happy to bring that along as well.

We’ll make sure to take your teaching schedule into consideration when we put this on the day’s plan.

Whoops! Wrong space…

We propose a session that looks at making in the humanities. We are going to demonstrate how to use a MakeyMakey to turn bananas into a keyboard, making paper circuits that will add lights or sound to paper, and making a contact mic to pick up sound waves from everyday objects.

Our presentation will demonstrate what someone can do with a few hours of practice, what resources are available as tutorials, and a conversation about how/why you could include these in humanities classes.

We anticipate taking time to do an introduction to these resources and giving people some time to play around with them as well.

Oooh nice! I would love to see some remixed album covers with this activity!
