MESO is a design studio based in Frankfurt. We create digital systems for communicative spaces.
Today
Of course technology is driving us. However, it is more about transformation, although it is not always clear which part we must transform. Sometimes we have to transform ourselves, sometimes the initial idea.
Many bright minds visited our booth at Firmenkontakttag Informatik in Wiesbaden. Our young talents gave answers to questions regarding MESO, vvvv and of course our projects. We received great feedback and are looking forward to next year!
Shaping up for the opening of “Anne Frank. Morgen mehr.”, the new permanent learning lab at Bildungsstätte Anne Frank. For the exhibition we produced exhibits and a mobile interactive layer that engage participants in social experiments. Just a few more days until the opening...
NOTUI: David’s crazy flexible open source 3d ui library
To advance the state of art in user interfaces we created an easy to use 3d UI library, written entirely in C#. And tidily wrapped for our favorite rapid development tool vvvv. NOTUI is a behavior package and robust skeleton for UI elements by David Morasz. More info here:

MoAgris: TImon's Modular Agriculture System on Hackaday
MoAgriS is an indoor agriculture system that allows growing food crops and other plants in small spaces for very little money. The set up lets you cultivate plants that are normally not suited as indoor plants. Support Timon's project by liking it on Hackaday.
Moovel Lab developed a great new application which lets you quantify your surroundings and enables you to be an urban miner. The tool is based on our darknet fork to receive object detections, developed by Timon: https://github.com/meso-unimpressed/darknet-net

The main issue and limitation that we face are not about technology or design; it is about structurally being able to put that stuff into the world.
