Time change!!! AGAIN!!! The airtime has been moved a second time, back to the time originally posted (9:00pm).

What happens when you put together dozens of geeks, cosmic radiation, podcasting, and a pickle? The answer is, "Dorkbot".

Dorkbot is an international movement of creative technologists who make and show off wonderful things. Their motto is, "People doing strange things with electricity." There is an active Dorkbot chapter here in Austin (more info here) that meets about once a month.

On September 14, 2006 we visited a live Dorkbot to find out what happens. We found an amazing device called the Kosmophone, that creates music from cosmic radiation. We also found students using "podcasting" to bring creative media to the world. And—strangest of all—we found somebody trying to electrify a pickle.

Join us as Austin Technology Matters visits Dorkbot, and finds the edge where technology meets creativity.
