Dear all : I wanted to introduce myself to the OLPC.CH list.
I am an electrical engineer (EPFL graduate 2000) and was a researcher at MIT Media Lab (more specifically Media Lab Europe) between 2001 and 2004, then an Adjunct Professor at USC School of Cinematic Arts in Los Angeles. I now live in Switzerland where I founded my design studio / production company in 2007. I attended the World Summit of Information Society, as a guest of Ireland, in 2003, when Nicholas Negroponte announced the launch of the OLPC project with Kofi Annan, and have since followed its development. I have started to make contacts at EPFL with the Learning Center, and student associations, such as Ingénieurs du Monde (http://idm.epfl.ch/), to organize a workshop whereby EPFL students could learn how to develop Activities for the XO, and possibly do internships in developing countries. Please contact me for any further information - I am based mostly in Western Switzerland. Best regards to everyone, michael.
