"With the help of cutting edge interactive installations and internationally acclaimed speakers, ThoughtMade aspires to become a meeting place for innovators of all creeds in the Öresund region." (http://thoughtmade.com/) GeekPhysical was one of several speakers presenting at ThoughtMade's debut at InKonst in Malmo, Sweden. We introduced our Biometric Social Interaction system and discussed how important cross collaboration and invention is.

nights.
