Almost Missed This: The Internet of Things Google Developers Fest Arizona





On the way to run errands on the light rail yesterday by taking a diagonal shortcut through Mesa Arts Center, usually a vast hot spot for performance and visual arts,  stumbled on this [image to the left] on the stone walkways.

It stopped me fast in my tracks > turning into a revelation for the future.
WtFark is this?
Like most residents and visitors I've seen the dinosaur footprints on the sidewalks of Main Street [and a few dinosaurs in the windows at Milano Music] but this?
Some kind of homing beacon for aliens from outer space giving them a signal to attract their return landing back on Planet Earth like the Nazca Lines in South America?
No. Landing here in Mesa was a gathering of bright and brilliant minds ...

It happened yesterday from 9-5 inside the Piper Theater, attracting more than a 100 engaged in connecting everything to everything > The Internet of Things
