(video) Another RI geek at Maker Faire: Tom Sgouros
Tom Sgouros does this awesome play called Judy -or- What Is It Like To Be A Robot that has gotten rave reviews, including very kind words from Douglas Hofstadter (Gödel, Escher, Bach"). He brought his play to Maker Faire Bay Area 2008, and it was a real hit, especially with kids. I wasn't able to see much of the play because I was so busy (75,000 attendees will do that to you), but when I saw a swarm of kids rush the stage at the end, I had to shoot this video. I love the curiosity and sense of wonder he's inspired.
