As Shaan Hurley and I prepare our Autodesk University presentation for our class on cool technologies on Autodesk Labs, I wondered if we should have music to go with our slides.
AC2232 - The Very Latest in Cool Technology from Autodesk Labs
Perhaps each technology preview could have its own theme song? Since it's Friday, I used Spotify and iTunes to see what's popular. Some of these technology preview names relate to some pretty obscure songs:
Technology Preview | Theme Song | Performed By |

Augmented Reality for Showcase | "Reality" | Kenny Chesney |
AutoCAD Isometrics WS | "Sweet Dreams Are Made of This" | Eurythmics |
BIM Coordination for AutoCAD Civil 3D / Revit | "Land of the Living" | Accidental Coordination |
DesignScript | "Breakeven (Falling to Pieces)" | The Script |
FABmep Import for Revit MEP | "I Want To Hold Your Hand" | The Beatles (a.k.a. The Fab Four) |

Inventor Fusion | "Fusion" | Hiver & Hammer |
Inventor Simplification | "Dont You (Forget About Me)" | Simple Minds" |
Maximo Integration for Revit | "Find the Cost of Freedom" | Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young |

Plugin of the Month | "Plug It In" | Basement Jaxx |
Project Artoo for AutoCAD Map 3D | "Star Wars Theme" | Original Star Wars Orchestra |
Project Basejump for AutoCAD Map 3D / AutoCAD Civil 3D | "Jump" | Van Halen |

Project Sci-Viz for 3ds Max | "Tainted Love" | Soft Cell |
Project Simulus | "Here Comes That Crazy Leopard" | Simulus |
River Analysis for Civil 3D / Map 3D | "Cool Change" | Little River Band |
Nah, we'll just slow the slides and do some talking. Actually as far as class content goes, I will talk about the Autodesk Labs process (technology previews and feedback) and Shaan will have some demos:
- Augmented Reality for Showcase
- Project Chronicle (playback only)
- Project Geppetto
- DesignScript (video only)
- Project FactoryModz()
- Project Basejump
- Project Falcon
We look forward to seeing you there.
Lesson planning is alive in the lab.
