This is totally a promotional opportunity, Konami did the same thing with The Phantom Limb Project / Metal Gear Man earlier this year. That being said, they are totally going about this in the right way and this looks to be a sincere attempt at a human augmentation conference.

Yeah, all you need is a reed switch. Super simple.

I am horrible about keeping up on the forum here, so sorry for the slow response. I haven't seen any horror stories but was curious who was working on what as I wanted to support any existing projects before talking about working on any new ones. A guild or association is a good bet and is an easy place to start. If anyone…

Wow. This is really awesome. I love seeing some of this stuff get more into aesthetics.

Your location (even in the city you're in if you're in the states) can make a big difference on this. You could have issues with local health code laws, with state disease transmission laws, with medical practice laws, etc. There are a lot of places you need to look around. Where are you located? For instance, in Austin, a…

This is going to be great. :)

Currently, the plan is to film a lot of the talks and release them on YouTube after the event. Some of the speakers have asked that we not film their talks, and there will be a lot of cool stuff going on in places where we won't have cameras. That being said, badges are $60 and flights into town are not terribly…

This is great. Those of you with Northstars implanted, thanks for taking one for the team and letting us know how well they hold up. I could see lights like these getting to be very popular once the induction charging is going strong.

How were the Immortality Bus and Zoltan? Are they worth checking out if it comes through this area?

General Austin weirdness, big fitness city, strong tech center, open to experimentation and body modification. Lots of good reasons to do it there. Are you from Austin?

Oh this is so cool. You could easily build this as a wearable, at least for proof of concept. Basic housing encased on the forearm and transmission coming through on the palm. NFC would make it low-ish power, direct, and possibly more secure than transmitting all this data over WiFi. You're effectively just exchanging a…

This is great! If you guys want to do this again in February in Austin, TX, shoot me a message at [email protected] and we'll work out the details.
-
No worries. I guess that means insTED is probably not worried about it either. I am super excited to see the video. You guys are doing some cool shit.

Super interested in InsTED asking Science for the Masses to do a live implant. What special considerations have they or have you made for this? Are they requiring any haz mat or medical precautions? Are you just streaming it to a projector on site so people can see? Sorry to derail a little, the logistics of this are both…

It's going to be at Tears of Joy Hot Sauce Shop on 6th street. 7p-9p, Monday 3/16. If you tell them that you're from biohack.me they'll let you in or if you want to make it easy on yourself, send us a note at tinyurl.com/BodyHackingSXSW and I'll add you to the eventbrite. Cassox, no worries. I was hoping to be able to…
