We are off to North Carolina to present the piddler to the Hickory Museum of Art for the opening of their High-Speed Photography exhibition (details will follow).

We are so proud!

Finally I find time to report: It was good to visit the HTL Wolfsberg again, in January, during my last stay in Austria. I gave a presentation about my current work with my company iPressl and about my PhD research at MIT:

I spoke about my Social Networking Site for Austria: www.redwired.org

the project MIT-Austria,

2fast4u, which I collaborated on with the HTL and am now co-advising two thesis papers of four HTL students:

My kids project in collaboration with KIMEKI: CINEATRIX.

The NASA Spaceelevator Project:

my US Army project called Super Insulation,

and my PhD thesis work on Electromagnetic Welding.

Furthermore, my two colleagues Andreas Maier and Bernhard Heine, who visited me at MIT, last year in the fall, gave a talk about their trip and findings working with me on some new high speed photography images:

Our talks were very successful and I always enjoy the technical and friendly atmosphere at the HTL Wolfsberg.

The project 2fast4u is evolving with time and is now a project between three schools: the Massachussetts Institutue of Technology (MIT), the Stiftsgymnasium St. Paul and the HTL Wolfsberg. The exhbition will not only show High Speed photographs taken at the MIT in Cambridge, Massachussetts, but also show objects and high speed experiments built by students from St. Paul and Wolfsberg. The schools and students are excited about the project and are looking forward to present their photographs and results in April 2007 in the Kuss Wolfsberg.
