“Partner Robert Hodgin has been heading up the nascent Barbarian Labs, an innovation engine and fun experimentation outlet. The labs give employees the chance to get their hands dirty with new technologies, such as the currently in-beta Processing, an interactive programming language that lets non-programmers explore graphical ideas. The lab has already borne fruit—resulting in interactive installation work and new types of engagements with clients who may have only thought of the Barbarians as Flash geniuses.”
