Leo:

Of course you were (no surprises there)! As the saying goes "nothing new under the Sun, just timing." The seminal underpinnings of this technological interface go back to the mid-80's in a white-paper given at a SIGGRAPH conference of which I attended. A couple of decades later, Viola!

We've been "posting" updates on this emerging technology on various blog-sites for the past year or so.......... http://www.northwesterndigital.blogspot.com ......... http://www.aimforsuccess.blogspot.com (See Hands-on Computing / Post) among others.

Now about what we might do (intention) with it today..............!!!!!!!!! Example: Certainly brings "new meaning to the table" of The World Cafe'.............AIM Program (Examplar for Asset Management of the development and orchestration of 47 New DPS Themed Schools / Roll-out September 2007).........ditto orchestration for the Summit Place Mall Initiative......."Science City" etc. etc...........You're a Genius..........NSF ITEST Grant Initiative...................

.and/or "limitless" (but pracitcal) comes to mind..........

Let's investigate those possibilities and set about the task at hand.........imagined design and implementation strategies......VIOLA!

Best,

Jim
