Projects
- Hivelord 2 - coming soon
- Hivelord - Inspired by the world of Philip K Dick, the Hivelord is digital interactive performance art: an electronic mask and galactic persona that inverts the traditional photo booth, taking snapshots of viewers and displaying them on his face.
- Mechanical Keyboards - custom designed mechanical clicky keyboards with LEDs, for your premium typing experience.
- Desklamp - A raspberry pi, msp430, infrared remote, and some relays are united to control the lights on my desk. A python script can detect when I'm on the wifi network and change the LED colors accordingly.
- Makerbot lightbox - What can't you do with some hot glue and LEDs?
