I found this when I was cleaning out my laptop hard drive. This is one of the first concept drawings Ben (of Backbone Metals fame) did when he and I were first planning The Neuron Chamber. It’s amazing how close we got to these original drawings while still creating something entirely different.
When we did our last show at the Exploratorium I did a video interview with Wired about what The Neuron Chamber was and how it worked. I loved that they wanted me to explain in detail how it worked and not just give a 5 second sound bite. Well the video just went live and [...] Thank you all for coming to the show last night at The Exploratorium. I had a great and exhausting time. It was fantastic to see so many friends out in the crowd, and I’m sorry I did not get to talk to any of you for as long as I would have liked. I’d like to [...] My pal Corbett over at Instinct Engineering just let me know that Almost Scientific and The Neuron Chamber were featured on the Solid Works design blog Solid Smack.

Thanks also to CTP and Nemo for pulling together another [...] Stay tuned for more … Just a reminder folks … Almost Scientific and The Neuron Chamber will be at Maker Faire this coming Weekend (May 30-31) in San Mateo CA as part of the Applied Kinetic Arts show! Last year we were there with the Dihemispheric Chronaether Agitator and had a great time!
The Science Gallery produced several short video about the pieces at Lightwave. Here is one that features The Neuron Chamber at two of the other instillation. We come in at 1:40 if you want to jump right to us. This was shot on opening night and I was absolutely exhausted, and I’m [...] Well Lightwave is over and The Neuron Chamber is on its way back home. The show was allot of fun, the piece ran very smoothly and we made some great new friends. It was really cool to have the piece up and running for a sold month and it was really interesting to see how how [...] The Science Gallery, where The Neuron Chamber is part of the Light wave festive, has just posted the first part of their in-house video shot on the opening night of the show. The Neuron Chamber is featured towards the end and this is a great chance to see some of the other installations. Man I [...] The Lightwave festival and The Neuron Chamber were featured on Ireland National Television tonight. You can see if for a short time online at their website.
