I'm a programmer, author, and hacker artist in Sebastopol and Mountain View, California.
I work on the GigaPan project, and I welcome questions, comments, and ideas about the project.

I talked with one of the crew dismantling this tank. They took down the other large tank which I have a GigaPan of, plus the little tank near this one. I liked the little tank. In a landscape of giant vacuum tanks, oversized wind tunnels, pipes erupting from the ground like spring bulbs, the small tank was cute.
Really.

Randy, Gene, Naomi and I had a wonderful day Sunday after the Fine workshop touring around Pittsburgh. We ended up on top of 'Mount' Washington. And I had just enough battery and light to slip this Gigapan out.

We dined in luxury in the same spot as President Obama and the G20 leaders did a month ago.

Win: that photos are explicitly allowed.
Fail: that there is _any freaking question_ at all that photos could possibly be limited.
I could become radicalized over this issue. In fact, consider me radicalized :-)
I assert that very very soon we will consider the right to photograph to be a basic civil right. We are already working on various assistive technologies which use photographs and other sensor data in order to provide an 'augmented reality' experience.
It is only the smallest of steps to move that from 'augmented reality' to 'assistive technology' designed to help people with disabilities, such as memory function.
Already I need to take photographs of many things in order to reliably remember them. How far is that from being an Assistive Technology?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assistive_technology
Assisteive Technologies are defined in the Technology-Related Assistance for Individuals with Disabilities Act of 1988 as is "technology designed to be utilized in an assistive technology device or assistive technology service.
Anyway...semi sorry to rant :-)
