> 1. It seems, possibly, the exact wrong time to make rooms with giant displays. With things like Google Glass and Oculus Rift as first gen (2nd?) VR/AR you could project all of that info virtually and cheaply and be able to have all the visualization he describes wherever you are, not just at a makerspace that only a few people can use at a time.
I think the reason he wants giant displays is the reason we have giant shared displays in control rooms to: so you can see what others are looking at. Don't forget maker spaces are supposed to be communal spaces where you share ideas. You can learn a lot just by watching someone else use a tool the right way. And then there's of course the collaboration, where shared displays are even more important.
