Our Live Printer auto-magically prints photos uploaded to Instagram and Twitter. Just define a hashtag or geolocation and within 15 seconds you'll have a tangible take home print. Built for events but ready for permanent installation, the live printer can print 400 photos without replacing the paper. Our wooden printer housing is custom built and can be designed or finished to suit the specific needs of our clients.

Visualization
We produce beautiful social visualizers for events and exhibitions. We grab Instagram photos or tweets from the web, and display them in real time as massive projections. Our system is highly customizable and we provide elegant administrative tools for curation and control.
Check out #Creators Live, an interactive installation we recently exhibited in San Francisco and Paris.
Slow Message
"Desynchronize from standard time frames and surprising opportunities may present themselves."
— Bruce Mau
Slow Message allows you to schedule email messages for future delivery without knowing specifically when they will arrive. It's a simple alteration to the email interface, but it just might change the way you think about communication.

Piñatas
"The act of the piñata in its own right is kind of subversive – taking this beautiful object and destroying it. At any ritual gathering, the idea of transformation is important – blowing out candles, burning something or breaking something. Every culture has that."
— Kate Clark
Collectively we have over 20 years of Piñata-making experience. Our aspiration is that one day we might find the client willing to challenge us with a large-scale Piñata project. We promise to integrate all the bells and whistles like lasers, robots, and iPads we know you want.

"Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler."
— Albert Einstein

Over the past year, we have added a number of useful features such as the ability to subscribe to a users' posts via email and the ability to create hashtag galleries.

- Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal

BoxLife
"Don't worry about what anybody else is going to do. The best way to predict the future is to invent it."
— Alan Kay
If you visit our offices, you will find a number of large boxes painted in bright colors. We call them sleeping boxes and everyone who joins the company gets one. Yes, we nap in them, yes we sleep in them, yes they are small, but they are cozy and we love them. Someday you will understand.
Everyday
We share company context on Instagram and Twitter and try to keep things active and honest.

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great."
— Mark Twain
We are growing and are looking for the right people to join us in our quest. We would love to connect with Web Engineers and Designers, but we'll always have our doors open to smart people willing to learn. With way more work than we can handle, there is plenty of opportunity to sieze power.
Our main office is in Berkeley, but we also have a storefront in San Francisco and a team in San Diego. We're glad to have you drop by, or meet anywhere for coffee, beer, or whatever else.
