Subject: ✈ Update on Ometropolis 2.0 and Fab Research
Hello Dynamic Mediuminators,

Nagle and I emerge from a week of engagement with kids, simulations, board games, and blocks-based programming.

While Nagle is still in Cambridge, I arrive back tonight and will be in the lab on Thursday.

The week went very well! However full documentation will come later on in the month. Our plan is to co-document our insights and present them in some organized manner, and while we debriefed with each other and have initial thoughts, we’ll need a bit of time to prepare and present it.
 
In the next week I’m preparing for a presentation to y’all on fabrication and actuation w.r.t. the Kitchen Sync Kit. I’m aiming to cover research on “making things and moving them into place.” I’ve already looked at what Nagle, I, and the kids have made last week and started to port these examples into the platform hypothetically, asking, “what fab stuff do we need in order to make these things dynamic in our platform?”  I also want to use y/our jam stuffs from the past week for this too. If you have any specific ideas, holla

The plan is to present this to research on April 5 after team lunch.

<3 Paula
