When you take your seat at the 2012 Crunchies Awards*next month, (tickets on sale now!) look above the stage. You will see an acoustical canopy system made of 59 Plexiglas reflector panels controlled by cutting-edge technology — for 1991. As the Crunchies celebrate the latest technology advances and startups onstage, over the heads of the winners will be an impressive feat of technology from more than 20 years ago.
