BRAND TAGS

“The basic idea of this site is that a brand exists entirely in people’s heads. Therefore, whatever it is they say a brand is, is what it is… A collective experiment in brand perception. All tags are generated by people like you and do not reflect the opinions of the site owner or anyone else he knows. Have fun.”

THE FUTURE OF ADVERTISING - PAUL ISAKSON

PICTURE TO LEARN

If a picture is worth a thousand words, perhaps drawing and visualizing can help science students understand more than they get from their textbooks.

MIT research scientist and science photographer Felice Frankel is exploring this idea through "Picturing to Learn," an educational technique that is being tested at MIT.

Picturing to Learn is creating a data base of over 4000 drawings from various science undergraduate courses. Students are asked to respond to a homework question by creating a visual explanation whose purpose is to teach a high school senior about that particular phenomenon. They are also asked to "evaluate" their own drawings.

WII REMOTE HACKS - JOHNNY CHUNG LEE

Johnny Lee demos his amazing Wii Remote hacks, which transform the $40 game piece into a digital whiteboard, a touchscreen and a head-mounted 3-D viewer. Since the Wiimote can track sources of infrared (IR) light, you can track pens that have an IR led in the tip. By pointing a wiimote at a projection screen or LCD display, you can create very low-cost interactive whiteboards or tablet displays. Since the Wiimote can track upto 4 points, up to 4 pens can be used. It also works great with rear-projected displays.
