The Big Idea
This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.
Photo Journal: One Week at SXSW
We asked GE’s Katrina Craigwell and Eden Grace Zeek to wrap up SXSW Interactive for us. Here’s the week in pictures.
2012 marks GE’s second year at SXSW. Once again, it was an awesome week of networking, learning and libations. Now that South By ‘12 is winding down, here are a few of our favorite scenes from the week.
Rain, rain, so much rain. In an unusual turn of events, the first days of SXSW were almost completely rained out. Tents were erected, pedicabs were shielded in plastic and conference-goers scurried from panel to panel (or simply stayed inside, close to an outlet).

ReCraft Your Ride: Carbon Fiber Bike HMK 561
Unlike of many other concepts electric bicycle concept HMK 561 from Ralf Kittmann took home an iF Design Award for some seriously forward thinking. Cyclists HMK 561 is made of conductive carbon fiber, which is not only an excellent conductor of electricity, but also acts as a capacitor that can store energy. This energy is obtained by converting the mechanical energy into electrical energy in each mobile connection of mechanism. The resulting energy fed to the engine and lights. And there is already a working prototype!

Robin Hood: Hi, Tumblr.
Poverty in New York City is so pervasive it’s almost inconceivable.
1.8 million people who live in New York City live in poverty. That’s almost one in five people. 1.4 million New Yorkers rely on emergency food to survive, and 38,000 sleep in homeless shelters each night.
For 20 years, Robin…
