Gilad sends word that this weekend he’s doing some major hacking on the Makelangelo. I don’t know what he’s cooking up yet. Care to make a guess?
Did you now there are now 224 known drawbots around the world? Nice!
Tomorrow night at the Vancouver Public Library is TOUCH, their newest fundraiser. I’ll be there showing the latest Makelangelo along with a few other works. Come by and say hello! Tickets are $75 in advance, $250 at the door. For more information, check out the TOUCH website.
