Known for their music videos that defy tradition and push the limits of imaginative filming, OK Go has a new one- "End Love",  directed by Jeff Lieberman and Eric Gunther.

Here's what Jeff had to say about it:

"Eric Gunther and I directed a music video with OK Go. You've seen them on treadmills and in their backyard, but you've never seen them like this. With some fancy cameras and a little magic, we figured out how to dance with time. For those of you who like numbers...

Today kicked off the 2010 H+ Summit, "The Rise of the Citizen Scientist". You can watch the livestream here.

I'll blog about it tomorrow, after I get some sleep! No one wants to read what I have to say on 6 hours sleep over the last two days. :)

GREAT time here in Boston!!!

It is springtime in Boston- a time when some of the greatest young (and old) innovators in science come together for 9 days of sciency goodness, a.k.a. the Cambridge Science Festival.

This short video highlights some of the activities and exhibits from the opening day carnival on Saturday. Features include cool stuff like LEGO robots, wicked-old mud fossil casts, making slime, and extracting banana DNA using such high-tech tools as a plastic ziplock bag and a coffee filter.

Science outreach makes me all warm and happy inside. (^_^)

One of my top 5 favorite TED talks from TED 2010, Michael Specter speaks about how society needs to embrace science. We shouldn't place more importance on ideology than scientific data, on politics over common sense. When we fight scientific progress because of our ideological wars, we run the risk of sending our world back into the dark ages, before we had any control over disease or famine.

We can solve some of these problems now, if only we would let science be the unbiased method of innovation and progress to generate real solutions, instead of fighting it every step of the way.
