A Parallel Image

by Rocky


The Parallel Image display uses photoreceptors to transmit brightness levels to the other side of the display.
The project represents how video would be transmitted if serial data had never been invented. Each pixel in the 50×50 grid arrives on its own channel, which is why there is so much copper wire.

Teenage Engineering / OP-1

2009 December 4


Designed by Sweden’s Teenage Engineering (one of whom was behind the Little Sound DJ Gameboy music programme) the OP-1 acts as either a standalone synth with built in sequencer (and FM radio!) or as a controller for your favorite production software. Hopefully available in 2010, price TBC, but that OLED doesn’t look cheap. See more at their site.

Adam Voorhes

2009 December 4


The first stumbling block for your brain on seeing Adam Voorhes’ work is trying to decipher if you’re looking at a photograph or an illustration. Meticulous detail, and gravity defying orientation lead us to naturally assume it must have been drawn somehow, or faked with some computer tricky. But no. There are photographs. Adam himself explains…read interview

The absolute absence of sincerity when he states he’s “remorseful” is priceless. Keep bombing.

Disposable Paper Laptops

2009 November 6

Designer Je Sung Park says that disposable cameras and cell phones have gained acceptance, so why don’t we take the next step and bring out a disposable computer.
His Recyclable Paper Laptop is quite a raw version and could do with some refinement. It uses recycled paper or pulp material all packed in layers. This is so that you can easily replace the damaged portions (even corrugated paper will tear easy). I’m sure there is a big brain out there that will figure out the tech bit of this thing.

One Night Banksy Exhibition

2009 November 6

banksy-one-night-front
For those that weren’t in London to view the rare “Have A Nice Day” piece by Banksy originally from the Shoreditch Railway Bridge, Juxtapoz has posted pictures of the event. A satirical nod to riot police, the work of art is (quite clearly) signature Banksy. It has recently become the focal point of a new documentary on street art. Soho’s “The Great Fog” jewelry shop hosted the one night viewing, and hosted several curators in doing so.
