One of the neat little interactive displays here at South by Southwest was this motion sensing shadow thingy (technical term) that we were able to play with. As you can see, I'm all about stealing little kids' bubbles and whatnot. What's interesting is, can you imagine this at home, as maybe a console add on? Would it work? Would you want it to work?

And Summa still have that Dr. Pepper shirt on... Ive seen that same shirt in a couple news of yours... Are you saving on perfume spraying just the shirt? Or are you trying to break a world record on who has the longest time wearing a Dr. Pepper shirt? Perhaps the shirt has developed a some sort of life form derived from your sweat and dead skin cells and when you whistle it puts itself on? Why not wear an "Also Cocks" shirt? maybe you could get it cheaper than $10! XD

Angels And Airwaves... it burns my ears :(

Still, pretty neat though. I'd probably play around on that for hours. It's the kind of thing that I could just mindlessly enjoy until someone asks me what I am actually doing.

I saw this at the london science museum about 7-8 years ago, they had volleyball that you could play with your shadow.

I would only want this to really work if it leads to a full VR situation.

There was something like this at E3, I think it was 3 years ago. It was a swampish pond that responded to movement. Surprise surprise it didn't end up being the Revolution.
