Royal Cinema (608 College St.) approx. 5pm (16:56-16:59), January 17, 2002

They asked me to be present at a pre-theatrical release of Cyberman at Royal Cinema, and I told them I couldn't make it because I had a class, but then we ended up simply inviting the class on a "field trip" to see the movie.

It was kind of surreal, in this big empty theatre, with just my class and the press people who'd been invited to the pre-release screening.

It was also kind of surreal looking through my EyeTap eyeglasses at a movie screen showing images of the world seen through the EyeTap eyeglasses, or looking through my EyeTap eyeglasses at a movie screen showing images of images of... of the world seen through the EyeTap eyeglasses. Art is Nth removed from reality.

Here's a picture of some of us who were wearing systems... (left to right) Steve Mann, James Fung, Corey Manders, Luke Ng, Chris Aimone. Also present in the background, Brandon "vic20" Niblett. Also present was Daniel Chen, visible, rightmost, in one of the pictures below.
