DFSA grad creates app that allows your mind to control Google Glass

DFSA graduate Chloe Kirton is Creative Director of This Place, the company who has received masses of media coverage over the last few days for their new app that allows Google Glass to take photographs by mind control.

Presenting the app to the world she has been seen on BBC, C4 with Jon Snow, CNN and in Wired, to name but a few. Apparently Google hasn't yet given it the thumbs up so it will be interesting to see how this all plays out.

Chloe graduated in 2008 with her interactive 'fish table' in which she programmed sea creatures to follow or respond to the movements of the viewers' hand. Talking to Chloe tonight she said "It was the highlight of the most tiring week of my life to have you and my uni tweet about me. I'd love to come talk with the students - it's certainly very relevant to what I did with DFSA. At the moment I barely have time to sleep but once the interviews stop I want to book in some visits and talks."

I hope we can get Chloe to come and speak to all 3 years for our January 2015 Alumni Day. 

Huge congratulations from the DFSA team - we are all so proud of you!
