Lunch break in an art gallery

Thursday lunchtime: I peered inside a wooden clock and there I saw a tiny cut out of a red phone box.

Dorkbot

I carried a yard of jaffa cakes to Limehouse Town Hall for Dorkbot on Friday.

I then listened to talks on subjects such as: a snowflake LED display for a shopping centre in Hong Kong, emotive wearables, naked mole rats, session music generated with the use of neural nets (and listened to songs it had created such as “The humours of time pigeon”), and playing music with pedestrian crossings and gas holders.

I tried out some of the demos: a doll’s head that you could touch and then a picture would be drawn, a photo booth controlled with a child’s learning table, and a picture frame where you could hold a picture up to and it would tell you a story related to the picture.

I also made a Sputnik bauble, which is now hanging on my Christmas tree.

deathboy and I decided we will try to collaborate on a project to make a musical ball pit that we can take to EMFCamp.
