This paper examines the under-explored role of video demos as a consequential form of communicating tangible computing research. Examining the production of video demos, in particular two videos from MIT's Media Lab, I explore the ethical complications of producing demo videos by bringing to the surface the tensions inherent in video representations of research, as understood from a social studies of technology perspective. In doing so, this paper hopes to generate discussion about the challenges and responsibilities of creating accurate and compelling narratives around technology research.
