The Engadget Show: Hands-on with Times Square

In addition to our full length Engadget Show, we’ll be doing short segments on a wide variety of topics which we’re hoping will delight, inform, or at least entertain for a few, precious moments.

Ever wondered who makes the outrageous displays in Times Square? Now you’ll know. Josh talks to Meric Adriansen from D3 LED, the man who designs and builds those massive structures, and goes behind the scenes to see the rigs from the other side. Want to get deep inside of the art and science behind the light pollution that is — literally — New York’s most visible spot? Watch the video… and subscribe to the RSS / iTunes feed below (we’re still waiting on Zune Marketplace approval).

Also, if you missed the premiere of the show with Palm CEO Jon Rubinstein, you can see it here.

Host: Joshua Topolsky
Produced and Directed by: Chad Mumm
Edited by: Michael Slavens
Music by: Bit Shifter

Well it’s finally, really happened. The very first Engadget Show is done and ready for your viewing pleasure. First up, Josh sits down with Palm CEO Jon Rubinstein for an in-depth discussion, then Nilay and Paul join the fray for a dissection of recent news — including the recent Apple iPod event, the Motorola CLIQ, and a hands-on look at an early version of the as-yet-unreleased Nokia N900!

We’re still getting our T’s crossed and I’s dotted for the Zune and iTunes subscriptions, but you can download the full HD video below — or just sit back and watch the streaming file up above.

Hosts: Joshua Topolsky, Paul Miller, Nilay Patel
Special guest: Jon Rubinstein

Update: Just a quick note — we know we’re having some bandwidth issues, both with the downloads below and Viddler. This is totally new ground for Engadget and the response has been a little overwhelming, so bear with us as we iron out these kinks. We’re working hard to make sure everyone can check out the video!

Thanks for coming out to The Engadget Show!

People of Earth — we wanted to say thank you to everyone who came out to the first-ever taping of The Engadget Show last night! We couldn’t have asked for a better crowd, and Jon Rubinstein was an amazing first guest. We’re going to have the full video on the site this week, but if you can’t wait till then, the folks over at Gear Patrol took some photos and did a writeup, and Weblogs Inc.’s director Brad Hill snapped some great pictures as well — hit the links below and check it all out.

Note: If you were in the audience and want to know how to get your Touchstone, we’ll have all that info in the video post!

The Engadget Show is today — here’s all the info!

The Engadget Show is happening today, Sunday, September 13th, in New York City. Our first guest will be Palm CEO Jon Rubinstein!

The show will take place at the Tishman Auditorium at Parsons The New School for Design. The beautiful venue (which you can see in a photo after the break) is located at 66 W. 12th Street between 5th and 6th Ave. Seating is limited and tickets will be handed out on a first-come, first-served basis — which means if you want to join us in the audience for the show, you’ll have to arrive early and be prepared for a little wait.

Here are some facts about the show:

  • The show is graciously sponsored by Nokia, and hosted by Parsons The New School for Design
  • Bit Shifter (one of our favorite chiptune artists) will be playing live at the first show!
  • The total show length will be around an hour

Here is what you need to know if you’re coming today to be part of the audience:

  • There is no admission fee — tickets are completely free
  • The event is all ages
  • The venue seats just over 450 people
  • Parsons students are welcomed, and we encourage them to come!
  • Tickets will be available for pickup at the Tishman Auditorium at 2PM today, and we’re strongly encouraging people to get their tickets and not stand in line — just pick up a ticket and then return in a couple hours for the taping. If you have a ticket, you’ll have a seat!
  • You cannot pick up tickets for other people — if you want your friend to get a ticket, bring your friend!
  • The show begins at 5PM, and doors will open at 4:30PM — no one will be seated after 4:50PM
  • Hold on to your ticket stubs — we have a very good reason which you’ll find out about at the taping!
  • If you’re going to tweet about the show (you know you want to), feel free to include #engadgetshow

The Engadget Show tapes Sunday, September 13th — our first guest is Palm CEO Jon Rubinstein

The Engadget Show gets underway this coming Sunday, September 13th, in New York City, and we’re super excited to announce that the first person we’ll be sitting down with for a one-on-one conversation is Palm CEO Jon Rubinstein! Between the recent launch of the Pixi, the introduction Pre and webOS, and all the other hubbub surrounding the company, we think it will be quite an interesting chat.

The show — which will be a mix of one-on-one interviews, roundtable discussions, short video segments, and live music — will take place at the Tishman Auditorium at Parsons The New School for Design. The Show will be filmed live once a month — but if you can’t make it, don’t worry. We’ll be bringing the full video back home to Engadget (and as a free download in the iTunes Store, Zune Marketplace, etc.) for your viewing pleasure. The full show should be online just a few days after we tape!

The beautiful venue (which you can see in a photo after the break) is located at 66 W. 12th Street between 5th and 6th Aves. Seating is limited and tickets will be handed out on a first-come, first-served basis — which means if you want to join us in the audience for the show, you’ll have to arrive early and be prepared for a little wait.
