This evening I have been watching some more of Rough Science, and I have been really loving it. In the current challenge three of the scientists are making antiperspirants and deodorants… and washing soda and a washing machine. Totally bizzare, and totally fun. Great TV really… Pitty it is not a mainstream program but I am not sure it would really appeal to the general population either. It is really what I would call a fun show though… The washing machine that they made was amazing… it even changed direction during the wash cycle.

I had an interesting phone call from a childrens hospital today… From a GAIT centre… they were interested in tracking children inside as they walk working out how well they walk. I really could not offer much off the shelf, but gave some ideas of where to look for informtion – some keywords and the like. Since I could not offer a product this seemed to be actually helpful… As we talked I did get some other ideas on how to do things… I might investigate some of them later…

Finally… Here is a cute art project… here… An LED enabled paper lantern…
