Martin Modahl’s Summary
With extensive background in computer science research and creative problem solving, technical challenges disappear in my wake. I enjoy confronting new technologies head on. I am passionate about contemporary and future pervasive computing. I look to create the solutions that will allow the computers to disappear from our desks. I yearn to call myself landed aristocracy, although I understand I'll never be able to stalk deer on a quarter acre in suburban Chicago.
