Building a giant ear..

Friday, September 18th, 2009

is what we have been doing at Digit today. Back to basics with papier-mâché, the perfect activity for a friday afternoon.   Sorry no clues what it’s for, as it’s going to be a surprise. Don’t worry you won’t have to wait long.

The Ears are Back

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

Thought I’d get the ears out again and see if I could use them in our studio. Installed one in the kitchen area and one in the meeting room. Both detect sounds and using xbee radios they send twitter messages when they hear something, giving an indication about what is happening in the space. Don’t worry Digit staff they do not hear what you are saying but just how loud or quiet you are. So you can carry on happily with your morning gossiping.

If you want to check out what the ears are saying visit their twitter feed.
