RSS Feeds - Elf on the Shelf continues to elude us in the Autodesk Gallery

With regard to the Elf on a Shelf, here's a progress report:

The Elf, a scout for Santa as to who's been naughty or nice, snuck into my laptop bag and was on the loose in the office. See http://labs.blogs.com/its_alive_in_the_lab/2017/12/elf-on-the-shelf-on-the-loose-at-autodesk-san-francisco.html" rel="noopener noreferrer - blog article with pictures .
The Elf made his way to the Autodesk Gallery. See http://labs.blogs.com/its_alive_in_the_lab/2017/12/elf-on-the-shelf-on-the-loose-in-the-autodesk-gallery.html" rel="noopener noreferrer - blog article with pictures .
The Elf was spotted among some of the exhibits. See http://labs.blogs.com/its_alive_in_the_lab/2017/12/elf-on-the-shelf-still-on-the-loose-in-the-autodesk-gallery.html" rel="noopener noreferrer - blog article with pictures .

As http://labs.blogs.com/its_alive_in_the_lab/2017/06/leed-platinum.html" rel="noopener noreferrer - the gallery has LEED Platinum Certification , the HVAC is turned off at night. The Elf was seen warming himself in the wee hours of the morning:

The BioLite HomeStove consumes 50% less wood than traditional cook fires, reduces smoke emissions by 95%, and can convert heat to electricity so it can recharge cell phones, LED lights, and other devices via a USB port. https://www.autodesk.com/solutions/simulation/overview" rel="noopener noreferrer - Autodesk Simulation CFD and other simulation software helped BioLite engineers evaluate the relative design decisions, reduce the number of physical prototypes required, and avoid overbuilding — helping the team save both time and money.

Apparantely his http://labs.blogs.com/.a/6a00d8341caed853ef01bb09df6d38970d-pi" rel="noopener noreferrer - earlier flirtation with the Ferrari wet his appetite for cars:

The http://labs.blogs.com/its_alive_in_the_lab/2013/04/autodesk-gallery-powers-of-design-exhibit-100-biome-concept-car.html" rel="noopener noreferrer - Biome car concept is that the symbiosis vehicle would be built from BioFibre, grown in the Mercedes-Benz Nursery through proprietary DNA, that collects energy from the sun and stores it in chemical bonds. Although most car manufacturers use http://www.autodesk.com/alias" rel="noopener noreferrer - Alias Automotive or Alias Surfacing , Mercedes-Benz used http://www.autodesk.com/maya - Autodesk Maya to pattern the shape of the vehicle after skeletal systems found in biology.

The Biome car brought him to the Bay Bridge:

One of the three busiest bridges in the world, the http://labs.blogs.com/its_alive_in_the_lab/2012/08/bay-bridge-tour-2012.html" rel="noopener noreferrer - eastern span of the San Francisco Bay Bridge is the longest self-anchored suspension bridge in the world. http://www.autodesk.com/3dsmax" rel="noopener noreferrer - Autodesk 3DS Max visualization software was used to gain legislative approval, bring contractors on board, and inform the public — often changing their behavior dramatically.

Perhaps the Ferrari and Biome experiences wet his appetite for riding in general, as he was seen atop the LEGO Dinosaur:

Playing with LEGOs has been the initial inspiration for many of today's architects and engineers, and the dinosaur mega model (62,500 bricks) is a replica from the LEGOLAND theme park that helps spur the imagination. The LEGO Group designs initial brick shapes using http://www.autodesk.com/maya" rel="noopener noreferrer - Maya , feeds that into a proprietary brick builder application, and then uses http://www.autodesk.com/autocad" rel="noopener noreferrer - AutoCAD to create plans for LEGO exhibit construction.

We are hot on the Elf's trail, so this caper should be wrapped up this week — much like a Christmas present.

Christmas magic is alive in the lab.
