Relaxing#

Here are three pictures of my favorite way to relax (ha-ha!). A nice bungy-jump, here in Skipper Canyon, NZ.

Plagiarizing myself#

Hologkomp.jpg
Maurer talks with two holo-copies of himself
One of my most interesting appearences was in May 2009, when I gave a talk during which I had a discussion with two holographic copies of myself! It was a complex technical set-up done by my friend and co-researcher Wolfgang Schinagl, but it was also lots of work for me: since the two holograms clearly were "canned", the interaction between them and myself had to be timed to the second, possible only through many repetititons of the scenes!


In a flying car#

Getting into a Moller

With Gio Wiederhold from Stanford flying in the Moller (Photoshop works well, right?)
Did you know that such vehicles actually exist? They can drive on roads; they can take off and land vertically. Produced in Davis, California, by Moller they are permitted on roads, but still have not been approved for flying and might never be!
