Tales from Mumbai

This week I'm over in Mumbai, at IIT Bombay's TechFest, helping our research group present the same MindReading Machines demo that we presented at the Royal Society's summer science exhibition. (Don't worry, MindReading Machines won't find out that you had Mars Bars for breakfast -- it's all about understanding facial expressions and gestures rather than mystically reading your secret thoughts.) I'm not directly involved in the MindReading Machines research, but I'm usually up for a free trip somewhere exciting!

Anyway, travel to exotic climes is always fun, and I've got a few spare jetlagged hours when I can't sleep, so I'll try to post a few of the more fun stories.
