At play in the fields of Pasadena

Mayne, below, with Art Center's Gloria Kondrup, had just given the spring commencement address on the Lida Street campus.

This week I'll be blogging from Art Center's latest international biennial get-together of design-world major players, this time themed "Serious Play." It's growing into Pasadena's version of George Soros' Davos conference in Switzerland -- the place to be for really big ideas from the best in the business. Participants include NPR's John Hockenberry, Google's Director of User Experience Irene Au, JPL Director Charles Elachi and double-amputee Aimee Mullins, the springy-legged holder of the world record in the 100-yard dash.

"Serious Play" kicks off Wednesday night and continues through Thursday and Friday.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.
