Heather Knight and her colleagues at Syyn Labs got their big break when they masterminded the Rube Goldberg device for OK Go’s music video, This Too Shall Pass. We asked Heather and her crew to create a Rube Goldberg to kick off PopTech 2010. And with bated breath, we watched the apparatus come to life – with a little help from some friends.

Thus I, gone forth, as spiders do, In spider’s web a truth discerning, Attach one silken strand to you For my returning.
