Was watching this insane video from TED where Pattie Maes and Pranav Mistry of MIT’s Fluid Interfaces Lab show how one can become a gargoyle from Neal Stephenson’s ‘Snow Crash’: wearable tech that is the aware of the user’s environment – for instance projecting amazon’s rating of a book one is thinking of purchasing, or projecting a watch onto a wrist initiated by a simple hand gesture. Imagine walking up to someone and seeing their interests projected on their chest, or taking a picture by just framing the area you want a shot of.
