Laser cut artwork + bicycles + cameras = awesome
“If attached to a bike wheel and filmed in motion this intricate paper cutout will animate to create lovely fluid movements; cogs turning and clouds growing and the like…I intend for these to be presented as art objects as in the pictures. I must stress, as I have many times with this project, this is about animation. It is not possible to see this with the naked eye. If you stick this on your bike you will not be able to see it unless you are filming it, I will include instructions on how to film it but I really see these more as pieces of art. - AlexSelf healing circuitry? Has any one seen our T-1000 around? - Gregg
Paper Powered Batteries Students-destroy your failed assessments and cool down your beer at the same time! - Matt
Wearable iPod Interface Apple may be working on a wearable iPod with Siri. - Gregg
