metaLAB is an experimental research unit within the Berkman Center dedicated to innovation in arts, media and humanities. iLaw participants are invited to join the metaLAB team at their current residence, Arts @ 29 Garden, to share in an evening of surprises: thermal printers that respond to text message prompts,  a cartographic surveillance system, large magenta cylinders that fabricate digital maps, live-mixed recordings of local pirate radio stations and an interactive LED jukebox. The event features recent hacks by the members of metaLAB and a special collaboration with Cambridge techno-musicologist Wayne Marshall. The evening will set the stage for the [[Digital Humanities]] pillar on Thursday morning.

These dinners allow conference attendees to engage in self-organized informal, themed conversation with other conference participants. Since these dinners are self-organized, there is no limit to the number of dinners that can occur on Thursday evening. '''We have not yet made reservations for dinners at restaurants; so if any conference attendees are looking to initiate/host a dinner, you are responsible for organizing and making reservations and communications.'''  Also, please note that dinner attendees are expected to pay their own dinner costs.


The metaLAB has invited us to come to their current residence, Art@29 Garden, to share in an evening exhibition to introduce their new digital art project called [http://metalab.harvard.edu/projects/ Augmented Harvard].  It will be a demo debut – sort of a pop-up show of the public installation – that will set the stage for the [[Digital Humanities]] pillar on Thursday morning.
You may organize and sign-up for Food For Thought dinners on the [[Talk:Evening Events#Ideas|the discussion page]]. All iLaw attendees are welcome to add their ideas for interesting topics or propose dinner locations.  If you would like to feature a dinner topic on this page for others to see, please email ilaw@cyber.law.harvard.edu.


''About Augmented Harvard'':
Food For Thought dinners tend to work best when the group size is small enough to be intimate (around 8 people or so). For restaurants in Harvard Square, expect approximately a 10-minute walk from Austin. For restaurants in Porter Square, expect approximately a 15 to 20-minute walk from Austin.


With the support of the Provostial Funds for Arts and Humanities, we are in the early stages of developing a multi-year, University-wide installation that is composed of a network of physical artifacts that unlock site-specific experiences. These artifacts, or HUBS, might consist of such devices as thermal receipt printers, hacked Kinects, speakers or programmable LEDs. Participants in the project encounter these HUBs across the campus or through an open-source iPhone/iPad application. Augmented Harvard allows faculty, students, curators and the public to link Harvard exhibitions to other spaces and objects across the University, and to see otherwise invisible features of the campus landscape such as long-ago demolished structures, alternative architectural plans, and inaccessible archives as they rove the campus core. The initial release is planned in conjunction with the fall 2011 exhibitions GSD’s 75+ and Cold War in the Classroom, co-curated by History of Science PhD students Jeremy Blatter and Christopher Phillips, and to be staged at the Special Exhibitions Gallery of the Collection of Historical Scientific Instruments, with additional materials borrowed from the Harvard Film Archive and the Graduate School of Education’s Monroe C. Gutman Library.

These dinners allow conference attendees to engage in self-organized informal, themed conversation with other conference participants.

Also, please note that dinner attendees are expected to pay their own dinner costs.
