Just a quick post to share a video of some of the first animations I’ve programmed for DOTKLOK, my upcoming open-source digital clock with multiple time animations.
The final version will probably have a black/smoked case with a choice of red or green LEDs.
Not sure if the buttons will be on the side or the bottom [...]

One Button Objects
Back in February, I saw this call for single button, interactive objects to be displayed at an exhibition called “one button objects,” in San Francisco, as part of the Gamma4 one button game event during the 2010 Game Developers Conference.
This presented a perfect opportunity to experiment with interactivity and sensor input for my Electric Window [...]
Electric Window 4.xx
In addition to the advancements made to the Electric Window 3.xx series back in December, I also started a new light box series, Electric Window 4.xx:
This series revolves around a matrix of 16 LEDs with individually controlled brightness and fading, making it an organic/analog sibling to the 3.xx series which uses LED screens with a [...]
Electric Window 3.01
December ‘09 was a busy month! I made a lot of progress on my “Electric Window” light series, both developing it as a platform and getting a handful out there into peoples’ collections.
A big move was finalizing the framework for the 3.xx series, by reducing the “Electric Window (iii)” design from two screens to one:

Dawghaus Studios put a video together of the event featuring some of our music, video, and performance — along with Spacing-related content, too, of course
CLR Podcast
Came across this nice interview w/ Chris Liebing enthusing about digital dj’ing technology:

Kraftwerk sitcom
For whatever reason, I find the following combination of Kraftwerk’s seriousness mixed with a laugh track and a chiché plot hilarious:
Window office
This is the third piece in my “electric window” series, which began in December of 2007 when I stuffed a small pre-made frame with EL wire and a decorative acrylic panel as an entry to Gallery 101’s annual fundraiser / art auction, 101 Frames.
The year after, I made another EL wire based piece, and animated [...]
Updating an old flave
This piece has a colourful history
The original, static fixture shown above was built for Cube Gallery’s 2008 exhibtion, Homage, which asked participating artists to create an homage to an important influence on their art.
I chose to make a wall-mounted rendition of Dan Flavin’s fluorescent installation, “untitled (in honor of Harold Joachim)”:
For the [...]
