We are doing some minor rearranging of the site over the next few weeks so if things look incomplete or missing, that’s the reason. Thanks. Here are some video highlights from the first three days!
Last week I had the great pleasure of of speaking to the National Cancer Institute about the relationship between art and science. Below I’ve posted the visual part of the presentation, but sadly there is not audio or video recording to go along. Here is a brief summary of my 30-minute presentation to help you make sense [...] Inverse Graphing Calculator The Inverse Graphing Calculator (version beta-1) is like a backwards graphing calculator. Normally, you enter an equation into your calculator and then get a graph of the curve. The way the IGC works is, you type something you’d like as your curve, like ‘Hello World’ or ‘I love you’. The IGC produces an [...] My limited edition papercraft models of The Raygun Gothic Rocketship are for sale on Makers Market. I’m not going to say exactly how we got these. But I will say there are several Tublians on Neblous-9 who risked a lot to get these to me. I hope none of them lost any gills. There are Top Secret Rocket [...] I’ve had this small Aperture that I made as a prototype for the Triaparator that has been kicking around my studio for a while. Well, I’ve decided to turn it into a lamp. Fitting huh? It’s still has that raw, being-worked on look to it but it’s close enough to the final idea that I’m okay posting it. The [...] I’ve started working on a new lamp. The idea for this came from two components that have been kicking around on my work bench for a while that I realized would work well together. The first is one of those pneumatic things that prevents your trunk from slamming down on you which is now broken [...] About a month or so ago I picked up a copy of the SF Panorama which was almost too great for words. One of the best things in it was a Rocket Sam comic by Chris Ware that, on the back, had a paper-craft model of rocket. Well, the other night I totally geeked out [...] I could not resist. Go get your own. You know you want one. (via NerdCore) Here is a sketch of a concept that I’m thinking of developing into a new kinetic sculpture. In this animation the camera is rotating changing the view, however, the twists translation is controlled by simply rotating the upper black ring. I just got done running some cool experiments with some conductive glass. I’ve got some decent video that I’ll post once it’s processed. Here is a photo of the beautiful failure point to entice you. This is also a test blog post from my nifty Droid phone. IMG_0148, originally uploaded by Spaceman Spiffy. Here is a great shot I found on Flickr of The Uria Engine at the Exploratorium show last week. I had a really great time today talking to a seminar on scientific visualization and art, at the University of Colorado, Boulder, hosted by Dr. Stephanie V. Chasteen. Stephanie previously held my current position as a post doctoral fellow at the Exploratorium. The talk focused [...] The Raygun Gothic Rocket, originally uploaded by ghansenpc. The Rocket – edited, originally uploaded by cookinghamus. This shot of the Rocket was taken by Flickr user cookinghamus using a KAP (kite areal photography) rig. Awwwww, ain’t it cute? It looks like a toy. Last night I, and about 15 Raygun Gothic Rocket crew, went to the SF premiere of Cory McAbees awesome new space western musical move — Stingray Sam. Of course, it was no real shock that it was such an amazingly original film. McAbee is responsible for creating The American Astronaut, a much loved, black and white, [...] |
