If you came to the BEAM/WCRG Millennium Games in Calgary last summer, you may have seen Jeff de Boer's lecture on the aesthetic component of robotics. Jeff is a local Calgary artist (recently inducted to the Royal Canadian Order - a huge honor, considering his age), and was interviewed on CBC radio Monday with Shelaugh Rogers on the "This Morning" show.

Now, why would this specifically interest you, a BEAM roboticist? He mentions a project he's going to be working on with Mark TildenÂ… This Windoze media "WMA" format plays on Windows MediaPlayer, and WINAmp players.
