“The Facadeprinter is a simple, software controlled robot. It consists of a two axis turn table and an airpressure printhead. The printer shoots the artwork from a distanced position dot by dot onto the chosen area.” Crazy stuff, the things it ‘prints’ have a very distinct esthetic.

“GameCamp is a gathering for the people who are building that world [a world with ubiquitous video gaming]. It’s for the designers, coders, artists, writers, thinkers and players who are making the 21st century the century of the game. GameCamp is about more than making games: it’s about playing them, thinking about them and how they affect our lives for good or for ill.” Sounds like an event I’d like to see happen in NL some time.
