[sldev] dorkbot meeting avatar puppeteering and physical interfaces

[evolutie]

Hi,

Here's a report on yesterdays dorkbot session.
http://rhizomatic.wordpress.com/2008/07/07/report-on-the-dorkbot-meeting-of-6-july/
Because of the enthousiasm of people wanting further development of
these technologies, I created a group called "Avatar Puppeteers". It's
open to join :-)

chrZ,
evo
