We had the pleasure of a visit from the MICA Smart Textiles gang on Tuesday evening. They gave us some cool ideas for workshops we could do including seed grenading and mechanical puppetry. They also pointed out that the anti-theft device on our camera (a wrench attached to it) was not particularly effective and might […]

After discovering that someone had absconded with the rubber sling for our giant, life-sized Angry Birds game, the Node crew made a game-time decision to bring our paper rocket station to the Innovation Celebration closing party for Baltimore Innovation Week.

Michael needs only a quick breather before he goes all coding luchador on the remaining kinks. The project originated in collaboration with Sherwin Mark […]
