I co-founded Submedia in 1999 while finishing my PhD in physics at Columbia. By then the other we worked on the project three years developing the technology, writing patents and business plans, etc.
I defended my thesis around that time too.
I consider conserving cash fundamental. The stipend for a PhD candidate was under $30k/year for living in Manhattan. I wasn't in subsidized housing and had no savings or other source of income.
- joejohnson 15y agoSubmedia.tv? What is Submedia?
- spodek 15y agoWe put boxes on the walls of subway tunnels that, when the train passes, look like movie screens to riders. We sell ads on the displays on a monthly basis and share revenue with transit authority. Some videos here: http://www.submediaworld.com/submediaworld/Submedia_Tunnel_Advertising.html http://www.submediaworld.com/submediaworld/Submedia_Tunnel_A... I also make art with the medium, but that's another story.
