(1) The Next Web. MIT Media Lab tour: Android and Kinect are the platforms of the future. During a lunch break at this week’s emTech conference, Director of MIT’s Media Lab Joi Ito was kind enough to give me a tour of the famed facilities. Explained Ito, “We like to think of ourselves as anti-disciplinary in our approach to learning. Everyone here is deeply devoted to their field, but very respectful of each other and it shows.” Ito points to the architecture of the Lab itself as part of the process for collaboration. Rebuilt in 2009, the Media Lab extension space was designed by Japanese architect Fumihiko Maki. Students from various disciplines can peek through the expansive glass walls and find inspiration in each other’s projects. Today, Media Lab grads are hard at work collaborating with their teams, but also, using the collaborative platforms of today to build the tools of tomorrow. Since then Microsoft’s Project Natal unveiled in the form of the Kinect and gestural interface prototyping has become even less expensive.
