Check out this new concept of the future from Microsoft + friends. When I see something like this I always have two distinct reactions. The first is, wow! Damn, does that ever look amazing! Then I think, what In the future we will all jet around the globe and have million dollar homes in exclusive locations? It just doesn’t seem very sustainable to me.
It’s def worth watching, but I always wish someone would do this with a “grittier” feel. What will the taxis look like in the future? What about all that traffic? Show us some creative way with dealing with problems like these… Whatever, I would totally use that cellphone directional projection tho! When is that coming???

[www.technologyreview.com]Citysense is an innovative mobile application for real-time nightlife discovery and social navigation, answering the question, “Where is everybody going right now?”
Citysense shows the overall activity level of the city, top activity hotspots, and places with unexpectedly high activity, all in real-time. Then it links to Yelp and Google to show what venues are operating at those locations. Citysense is a free demonstration of the Macrosense platform that everyone can enjoy.
Unfortunately, it’s only available in San Francisco for now. Scott, are you on this?

This is a very cool concept by Israeli producer Kutiman. He’s spent months scowering youtube for interesting clips, and editing them all together into seven quite good songs. This could be compared to DJ Shadow’s album Entroducing… which was the first album entirely comprised of samples.
I found it very powerful how these “unknowns”, who are only doing it for the love of their music, are suddenly heard an appreciated by millions of youtube surfers.
Expect to see a lot more of this stuff in the near future. I don’t think the copycats will get to this level of quality anytime soon tho!
