Band aus Steinen: Rock Band

Neil Mendoza hat ein Maschinchen gebaut, das midigesteuert elektromechanische Gerätschaften verbindet, die mit kleinen Steinen Klänge erzeugen. Eine echte Rockband halt.

„The rock band is composed of electromechanical instruments that make music with rocks by throwing them through the air, slapping them and making them vibrate. The song that they’re playing, Here Comes the Sun, is biographical, describing the daily experience of a rock sitting on the ground. The rock band is made up of the following members…
Pinger – fires small rocks at aluminium keys using solenoids.
Spinner – launches magnetic rocks, Hematite, at pieces of marble. Rocks are launched by spinning magnets using Applied Motion applied-motion.com stepper motors.
Slapper – slaps rocks with fake leather.
Buzzer – vibrates the plunger of a solenoid against a piece of marble.
The whole project is controlled by a computer running a MIDI player written in openFrameworks talking to a Teensy. The machines were designed using Autodesk Fusion 360 and Autodesk Inventor.“

Ein selbstfolgender Roboter, der Lasten befördert

Grandiose Erfindung, die es um Längen leichter machen dürfte, den Einkauf ohne Auto nach Hause zu bekommen. Tanith denkt zuerst ans Plattenschleppen, aber auch für jene, die generell und aus welchen Gründen auch immer, Probleme damit haben, schwere Dinge schleppen zu können.

„Meet ‚Gita‘. It can carry up to 40 pounds, follow you around and use 3D mapping to navigate through urban spaces. Gita has 8 hours of battery life.“

Breaking Bad – The Movie

Irgendwer hat sich hingesetzt und zwei Jahre lang an einer Film-Version zu Breaking Bad gepfeilt. Das Ergebnis hat er auf Vimeo geparkt.

„What if Breaking Bad was a movie ?
After two years of sleepless nights of endless editing, we bring you the answer to that very question. A study project that became an all-consuming passion.
It’s not a fan-film, hitting the highlights of show in a home-made homage, but rather a re-imagining of the underlying concept itself, lending itself to full feature-length treatment.
An alternative Breaking Bad, to be viewed with fresh eyes.
Thanks to all who were enthralled, overcome, or discombobulated by this project, but who saw it through, through thick and thin, until the very end !
Warning : SPOILERS, INDEED.“
