Kitchen table space.

-

This is what our kitchen table has been looking like for the past several weeks. Che-Wei is about to embark on a zero gravity flight next week with the Space Exploration Initiative at MIT Media Lab to test out Zenolith - an interplanetary time device. More on this soon, but here's a sneak peek.

A highlight of my week was seeing Neta Bomani present during ITP thesis week. Dark matter objects: Technologies of capture and things that can’t be held is a one-of-a-kind handmade storybook for children and adults about computational history and technology compiled by Neta Bomani.

A subject of this work, the unearthing of narrative through the lens of technological media is one we hold dear. We've had the priviledge of witnessing this work grow over the past several years and are really happy to share where it is now, and also looking forward to however it evolves in the future.

Huge congratulations to Neta and those who contributed to making this work real.
