I am currently lying in the sunshine and working on my January tan, albeit whilst wearing a T-shirt.
I am taking a well deserved break from traipsing around the world’s most shiniest environment – the 2013 Consumer Electronics Show. I’ve been invited out here as part of my on-going design project with Samsung and I am having a fantastic time touching screens, sliding displays, lifting things up, learning their cost and putting them down again.
I would have to be some kind of spectacular moron to not see what a great opportunity this is to bring my own technology into the Show, which is why I am wearing the most technological T-shirt I own – a plain white cotton tee bearing not one, but two, whacking great big QR barcodes.
For all intents and purposes, I have transformed myself into a living, breathing, digital portal.
I am the physical embodiment of all the technology I see around me, I am some sort of relatively trendy robot.. perhaps I am a website...
It was when I started thinking like this that I decided on the aforementioned break.
There isn't a soul in this building without a QR scanning app on their smartphone, so every six to seven steps I take, I am met by another lustrous device probing my torso to see what virtual treasures I hold.
In the highly likely event that the photo above does not depict the barcode clearly enough to be used back home, I can spare you the frustration of trying by telling you that it links to the very blog before your eyes, thus spreading the word internationally about my THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE challenge.
