Ilene Chaiken Speaking g-Speak

Recently I spent some time in LA with RISD alum Ilene Chaiken creator of the hit TV series The L Word. Together we visited the site of my old friend from my MIT undergrad years John Underkoffler — one of my dear heroes that merges creative thinking with advanced technologies. John is the visionary force behind a new paradigm for computing where the keyboard and mouse give way for your hands (literally) to navigate large digital information spaces. In the video above we see RISD and MIT collide in a very hands-on way ( smile).
