Looks like automatic media is gone due to "an inability to secure additional financing." Rest in peace: plastic, suck, feed (and salon?) Too bad. I'll miss them. But I'm not really surprised.
John Robb has started a weblog on the singularity. It starts with the Kurzweil link I had a week or so ago (which didn't get the best reviews) but goes on from there in at least a more personal way (whereas the Kurzweil site does seem a bit self promoting in an obviously money-making way.) In any case today he is discussing A.I. vs. I.A. ("Individual Augmentation"). Not really enough stuff yet to judge, but looks promising. (via Hack the Planet)
Yes, this project is taking forever. If you look closely at the top picture you can see that the framework for the facade is in, and I think the facade itself will be up in the next few days. Then the plywood can come down and it will look relatively spiffy from the outside. As is obvious from the shot below that, the inside still needs a lot of work. But the ethernet is all strung (pic 3) so everything I care about is ready to go. I keep trying to get them to just move in, but they want it to look good, or something. Graphic designers; what can you do?
