Maybe you're jonesing to see your compile status or recent github commits.. Think push notifications, directly to your watch using the data connection on your phone. Want to check-in on your watch, or create an app that can monitor your sleep? Pebble can send data from the accelerometer and buttons back up to the internet. Pebble can receive simple alerts and notifications from if this then that (ifttt.com) or our web-facing RESTful endpoint.

The process through which competitors go to become the winner of that reward, and the community engagement and conversation that occurs because of that process, is the hidden value. This was especially true for Grand Rapids during ArtPrize.

Now, Pomegranate Studios seeks to do it again with 5x5. 5x5 is smaller in scale, and perhaps more Grand Rapids-centric, but has a similar essence. 5x5 is a monthly event series, taking place the last Tuesday of each month, starting Feb. 22, 2011 at 5 p.m. in the Cook Auditorium at the GRAM. Much like ArtPrize, 5x5 is a fairly open-ended, open to adaptation as new things are learned. "Ideas will be chosen on the basis of quality, feasibility, if it has reasonable traction and what sort of impact it could have," Pomegranate CEO Rick DeVos says. With those vague guidelines, ideas could be art endeavors, start-ups, non-profits, community projects -- anything. J. Pomegranate Studios. Kickstarter.
