I had a fun and busy day at MIT. Spent some of it with my friend Chris passing out information about the Citori hack-athon that we’re doing a January 28 and 29th. It was fun to walk around campus. I also had a great meeting with my friend Randi and her group talking about their projects of using robots to teach Programming and AI to kids. It was so inspiring

Tonight Akash, Yasmini, Sara And I had a quick dinner at aceitunes. Akash followed me back to the hotel so I could show him the marx generator project I was working on. When he left… I got inspired and decided to package up the whole high voltage supply chains . It was fun trying to do a project like that in the hotel room. I brought some tools and Saturday and iron. But for the most part I had to improvise on tools parts etc. It actually came out pretty nicely. It allows me to make about a 5 inch spark from a simple cell phone brick. Battery

I think it’s more fun to invent when you don’t have everything you need.

Great metaphor for life

Nite all, nite Sam
