Microsoft Surface at Ball State

This post from Eric Lease Morgan describes some of the very cool things happening at Ball State in a new "commons" space, including an implementation of Microsoft Surface (check out this video). The university is among the first to have access to Surface, which is just one of many services and tools of their emerging media initiative. I looked around for more information about the commons and kept finding some very cool things, like the Emerging Media PowerHouse, Teleplex, and more. Ball State isn't too far away, and I do have friends up that way. I think I need to add them to my list of places to visit.
