One of our clients who shall remain nameless for the time being 😉 has asked us to include the appropriate War Chalking symbol for a closed node Wi-Fi network for their booth at #ISE2010. Our question is “does anyone actually understand these symbols these days or are they only for uber-geeks?” Wayfinding content can be […]
Further to Manolo’s scoop on thinking he had spotted Christie Digital’s MicroTiles on Monday evening’s US TV show ‘The Colbert Report’ here’s almost proof positive he is correct… In total there are 4 video columns as part of the set. You can see the inner 2 next to Stephen Colbert in the pictures above and […]

Last night the new set of The Colbert Report was unveiled to TV audiences and featured ‘digital columns’ that looked suspiciously like MicroTiles The Colbert Report airs nightly in the US at 11:30 p.m. and can best be described (for non American readers) as a satire program born out of reaction to the caustic cable […]

It’s tradition that we always post, in between Christmas and the New Year, our look back on some of the best, we think, that the year had to offer. This list, in no particular order, was compiled along with all of our contributors and like all ‘best of’ rankings it is in no way scientific. […]

Gary Kayye, one of the most respected, if not ‘the’ most respected AV analyst globally has given his verdict on Christie Digital’s MicroTiles. I am sure that Christie will be pleased with one of his opening lines where he says “to be perfectly honest, we don’t even think that Christie has a handle on how […]
Interactivity has been one of the components that Christie Digital have been using to help demonstrate the power of their MicroTiles. This was first seen at one of the private “whisper suite” viewings at Infocomm09 in Orlando, and is provided by Montreal based Float4 who worked in close creative association with Arsenal Media on the […]
This past Wednesday evening saw Christie Digital hold their official US / Canadian launch of MicroTiles in NYC (the European launch is slated to be at ISE 2010 in Amsterdam in February). A couple of folks have covered the event and there are some nice pictures doing the rounds and even some “shaky cam footage” […]

It wasn’t really that difficult for Christie Digital to develop the name or its brand positioning for MicroTiles BUT it took almost two years for the company to decide it had the right name from the very beginning. “MicroTiles was actually the very first engineering code name given to the product by the co-inventors Bob […]
All the folks working on the Christie Digital MicroTiles launch for this evening have dubbed this particular shape, ‘The Big O’ – the Issy-Neale Formula for it is _4X5_4T_THHT_THHT_THHT_4T_ that’s accurate but less catchy! It’s definitely one of our favourites. Note how easy it is to put retail merchandise in the middle of shape… It’s […]
