Slingshot, a short video about Dean's water project

[iVanDuzer]

You may remember that Dean Kamen was on the Colbert Report way back in 2008 talking about his water purifier, the Slingshot.

Today, I stumbled on a video by Paul Lazarus that is entered in the Focus Forward Film: Short Films Big Ideas competition. It's a bunch of short documentaries about the world's innovators that are competing for slots at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival and a $100,000 grand prize.

Lazarus' film focuses on Dean working with Coca-Cola to start moving his invention into Ghana. Here is the video. Pretty cool stuff!
