In my lab, which we're peering into now, at MIT this is at the media lab.

So I've started a lab at MIT, and it's called the Self Assembly Lab.

I'm at this place called the Media Lab.

We hired them, set them up, assisting at lab.

So I spoke with the guys at the lab.

I was also building something called the Copenhagen Wheel, which is just a really beautiful, beautiful electric bike at a lab at MIT called SENSEable City Lab.

So that's what we're interested in looking at in my lab.

And this is what we're doing in the lab at the moment.

Lab

This here is part of the same lab at the Royal College of Arts.

Engineers at Lawrence Livermore National Lab had an idea for a telescope much larger.

How? And at what scale?

I mean, is there a scale to it, at the smallest scale, or ...?

How can one explain what one does at night in the lab, every single night?

At our lab RoMeLa, the Robotics and Mechanisms Laboratory, we have these fantastic brainstorming sessions.

SS He talks to other Bonobos at the lab, long distance, farther than we can hear.

So this is another project that I worked on with the Sensible Cities Lab at MIT.

Behind the scenes is a working lab at Stanford University partnered with the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

Audience Where's your lab?

All these pictures were taken with a scanning electron microscope, actually in the lab at Kew Laboratories.

There was a girl who insisted we stay late at night Kids I love the Fab Lab.

We're terrible at scale, computation and volume.

I worked at Philips Electronics in the far future design research lab, looking 20 years into the future.

And so in this video here this is a video taken from David DeSteno's lab at Northeastern University.

I have a small lab.

Epoptes computer lab administration tool

We reverse engineer lab equipment.

All done in the lab.

But look at the scale of the differences.

We've been developing at the Media Lab this little city car that is optimized for shared use in cities.

So this is the lab at the high school, and the principal there is in love with this room.

Come on into the secret lab.

Here's one from Cristine Legare's lab.

The billboards say Lab Space Available.

This is our femtosecond laser lab.

We're not doing that at any scale on governance.

This is how you work at the molecular scale.

And it's at the scale of the night sky.

Now you'd ask, can this be done at scale?

So here's some other organisms at the similar scale.

So at a global scale, it looks like this.

Well obviously I had to find a lab to work at because I didn't have the equipment in my school.

Here's an aerial photograph of one of the Anasazi ruins you can see it's circular at the largest scale, but it's rectangular at the smaller scale, right?

Infrastructure at that large scale is also inseparable from communication.

How do you make them more friendly at that scale?
