Sierra Wireless Mercury 885 Unlocked Aircard - 2 views

  •  
    So after a lot of research, this Aircard seems to be the best bet in terms of units that can be tested with Frontline SMS in the US and work in Africa. There are phones that work in the US (which are listed on the Downloads / Requirements page on Frontline), but most of the phones that are on the approved list and are shown to actually work are mostly used in Europe, Asia, and Africa. There are a number of threads, but here are two describing issues and then the end solution: http://frontlinesms.ning.com/forum/topics/where-to-buy-gsm-modem-that?id=2052630:Topic:17627&page=2#comments http://frontlinesms.ning.com/forum/topics/washington-dc-based?commentId=2052630:Comment:24367 I'm going to put in an order so we have it for testing next week.

Red Cross Meeting - 3/8/10 - Google Docs - 1 views

  •  
    I created a google doc that includes my notes and Nour's meeting wrap-up. Everyone can view and edit this document, so add comments or additional points if you see anything missing. Figured this would be helpful in decisions for next steps. Awesome presentations tonight!

Kennedy & Violich Architecture - 1 views

    I saw Sheila Kennedy and Frano Violich give a presentation at the Kalil awards last week. Amazing work in interactive architecture. Be sure to check out their "Portable Light Project" (under Projects/Intelligent Infrastructure). Renewable power and light source that can be sewn into traditional garments.

    Danish sound/installation artist. I heard of him because of his "4 Rooms" project which was a recording/playback experiment in 4 deserted rooms in Chernobyl, Ukraine. http://www.fonik.dk/works/4rooms.html Emergence indeed.

    Victor Gama creates his own instruments and performs live with a strong visual element (instrument and projections included). Definitely check out the "Instrmts 4 Da Museum" under the Projects section. He's performing at Brown and at Carnegie Hall with the Kronos Quartet in early March for those interested.
