“The Buchla Skylab. It’s
colored like the Legos
I owned as a child and
makes fantastic noise. At
$14K, no child can afford
one. Now that’s a gadget!”
In 1978,
Magnavox
released a nextgen
console for
their popular
Odyssey series,
the Magnavox
Odyssey 2.
Which do you most admire?
I can record the world with it and
rebroadcast what I find.
What is your idea of the perfect device?
Something that helps you succeed
and makes your life easier.
What is your earliest gadget memory?
I received a hand-me-down
Magnavox Odyssey 2 video
game system. I loved UFO and

you most admire?
The internet. I almost can’t believe
it didn’t exist when I was a child.
Which do you most despise?
Pre-roll video advertising.
What fault are you most tolerant of in
a gadget?
Heat. I kinda like a hot lap
or pocket.

When has your smartphone been of
the most help?
Avoiding traffic (see TomTom

The Buchla Skylab. It’s colored

$14,000, no child can afford one.
Now that’s a gadget!
If you could change one thing about
your phone what would it be?
I’d like a refresh of the graphic

phones look cooler than iOS
at this point.
What does being connected mean
to you?
It means I’m never alone.
When are you least likely to reply to

When I’m drunk. I’ve learned that
lesson the hard way.
