Big Dinosaur

Together with a housemate I built a big version of the classic wooden T-Rex model.
By using the original drawings and scaling them, every little flaw in the design gets exaggerated, creating beautiful imperfections in its shape.

Step Sequencer

An experiment to try and make a step sequencer without immediately grabbing an Arduino / computer, but with plain electronics.

RFID Lock

Using keys is boring. A RFID card plus some hardware equals opening the front door without using keys, or hands for that matter. By using a large homemade antenna with the right diameter, the cards can be read from up to around 20 centimeters, so you can just walk up against the door to open it.

Camera Robot

During Stocks three day workshop we made a remote controlled driving robot thingy.

Poking Machine

Bart and I built a small gizmo that translates the meaningless 'poke' on Facebook into an actual physical poke. Using an Android smartphone and a small circuit we made, you can get poked where ever you go.

GIF2Punchcard

Physical archives are nice places to walk around. You can see what's there and grab the things you want to examine. With computers, more and more data is stored in a invisible but virtually endless space. By grabbing something that is completely from this virtual realm, the animated GIF and converting to physical objects, I sought a way to make the hidden visible.
