Physical Computing Resources

Punchcut’s weekly internal brown bag lunches let us get together to discuss a range of digital lifestyle and design subjects from Android to Wikinomics.

Andres Jimenez, Interaction Designer, led today’s brown bag lunch and walked us through various aspects of creating physical computing networks and devices for home automation, location awareness and status sharing. We were intrigued by his objects that posted mood and status updates to Twitter.

Below are Andres’ prepared collection of links. Enjoy.
