In this video it's backlit by output from Super Street Fighter IV for no particular reason. Preliminary test of a color reproduction device. RGB is averaged from a webcam and reproduced in an LED. Coded in Processing (with a lil help from Sly) and Arduino. Originally conceived as a method to remotely bring the changing of the seasons to my dreary London studio. But I guess with a little more thought it could be adapted for camouflage applications. http://gaetanoling.com/8X8 http://gaetanoling.com/following/gaetanoling.com/8X8 Tue, 17 May 2011 16:20:22 +0000 Gaetano 1457918 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/108635/1457918/monomecomplete03.jpg" width="670" height="547" width_o="2048" height_o="1672" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/108635/1457918/monomecomplete03_o.jpg" data-mid="7108608" border="0" align="left"/> 8X8This MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) controller was completed in early 2011.

Storyware communicates a story through a functional set of objects. Drinking tea is traditionally a communal activity, and a time for families to discuss and share. Stories are harvested from family members, recorded, and then embedded into ceramic using technology similar to vinyl records or wax cylinders. Throwing clay is a traditional craft, and the fragility of the material acts as a reminder of the fragility of family heritage as migration disperses close-knit families and communities. The tea-cups and their integral narratives are to be protected, enjoyed and cherished. These tea-cups were hand crafted from porcelain with the help of ceramic students at Tsinghua University in Beijing, China. Sound was then etched into the outer surface using an ad-hoc dictaphone. The result is a functional set of ceremonial cups with an embedded audio history, which can be played back via analog sound devices.For this particular set we recorded the voice of Dr. Li. Dr. Li is a retired professor of Tsinghua University who has opened his own vocational training school in inner-city Beijing; teaching impoverished teenagers how to build and repair computers. The school, located in an ancient Hutong„ will soon be displaced due to rapid urban development of inner Beijing. Dr. Li’s story was played back through Storyware cups on a salvaged record player as part of an effort for Chinese cultural retention.

We envision that by 2020, we will have developed optics capable of relaying natural light across time zones without using electricity. Lens receptors located around the world focus natural sunlight into a network of underground optical fibre. 3 meter diameter bundles of optical fibers transverse continents are laid along the ocean floor. Each individual silica fibre is doped with a special combination of rare earth molecules to amplify the magnitude of light. Bundles of optical fibre are split with distribution connection boxes, which are under vacuum to minimize loss of light intensity. Imagine: London’s street lamps streaming light from the Californian sun; the Gobi desert illuminating a tunnel in Tokyo; or bathing in the Australian sun during a Norwegian winter. By sharing natural sunlight, we can redistribute our energy needs and usage more equally. It’s always sunny somewhere.
