Laurie Garrett: The 1918 flu, Tamiflu and H5N1 & Larry Brillant

Posted by Oliver Gassner • Thursday, May 7. 2009
This video is not about H1N1 (swine flu) but H5N1 (bird flu) which has proven not so much of a problem. But it shows how unprepared the US would be - and the rest of the world. It also shows that a huge amount of pandemic education and preparation is needed.

Update: This guy wants to prevent the next pandemic - he already killed Smallpox;

Oliver Mack - ict @ fmx09 - interactive experience of visitors in museums and brand centers

Posted by Oliver Gassner • Wednesday, May 6. 2009

Oliver Mack works at ict which is a sytems integrator for audio/video installations at Metzingen (where Hugo BOSS is).

They now focus on trade fairs, museums and brand centers.

Plans for the future
- interactive displays (like in 'Minority Report'), between 1-2 years, flexible 2mm thick, bendable, transparent walls, comparable to todays displays
- interactive exhibits (working machines...) as holographic projections, controllale by gestures, projected freely in the room (technologies are avaiable but need to be improved and integrated)
- interactive environments (rooms), adapts to persons, user specific displays etc.

I am kind of too exhausted to blog all the detail examples, they are stiill quite impressive. Just check out the BMW and Porsche Museums ;)
