- A notably clever Lux Lotus reader writes in to recommend A Dress A Day, which I do, in fact, newly love, for its many lush and addictive pleasures, most of which end in a full skirt. Coincidentally ADAD editor Erin is also the author of the just-published That's Amore! The Language of Love for Lovers of Language. Check her out.
- Most recent Lux Lotus interviewee Elena Corchero forwards a note from a friend about a cool project that should be on the radar of all Lux Lotus readers who are into design, technology and the future:
Dear colleagues,
I am writing to spread the word about the launch of Distance Lab, a new digital media research institute based in the beautiful and culturally-rich north of Scotland.
The mission of Distance Lab is to invent new technologies and experiences that challenge the way we think about distance and help overcome its disadvantages in learning, health care, relationships, culture, and other areas.
Many of you will remember me from my involvement in Media Lab Europe in Dublin, where I headed a research group named Human Connectedness. My hope is that Distance Lab will expand on many of the themes from this group as it develops a similar demo-based culture full of talented engineers, designers, and artists from all over the world.
We are now recruiting RAs and interns on a rolling basis. We are also looking to build links with potential sponsors, clients, and collaborators. Please forward this message to anyone you think might be interested !
All information is on the Distance Lab web site:

Please join our mailing list if you would like future updates:

Keep in touch, and please let me know if you are ever in Scotland !
