Vaudeville halloween
Me and my friends Jowan Sebastian, Tom Brimson and Liam Dennis wanted to organise a night that could double as a showcase for fun interactive things that we wanted to make. Halloween seemed like a good night for that. With the help of Jack Williams, we put on the night at 5 below. My addition … Read more
Is Land floating island
This is some info on the creation of this island project. More info on the project itself can be found at http://www.is-land.co.uk For the summer festivals, me and my friend Sarah Cockings wanted to make an art piece to take along with us. The idea of Is Land, a floating island sculpture was born. We … Read more
Embossing stamps
I was asked by Robin Mackay and Paul Chaney, who work in the workshop next door to me, whether I would be able to produce a set of embossing stamps for an upcoming issue of Robin’s philsophical journal, Collapse. I had never done this before, but I’m pretty interested in printing techniques, so jumped at … Read more
Mario light
It was my friend Scott’s birthday and I was wondering what to get when I thought about the idea of this coin cube light from Mario, then I thought it would be good to add in a sound effect for when it turns on and off. Below is a video showing it going on and … Read more
LED card
I’ve been thinking about making an SMD LED card for a while and as my friends Ky and Jenny were departing from Falmouth for Brighton, I though it would make for a good present.

Corian printing blocks

Olives are plentiful, cheap and very tasty in Morocco and I really like homemade tapenade, so I bought a few kilo’s back, … Read more
The Christmas Sandwich
This isn’t a post about stuf that I’ve made but it’s a link to a video for a song by a good friend of mine, Chris. I’m sure you’ll find it highly enjoyable.
Magnetic musings
Normally my posts are a bit more conclusive than this one, but I fancied logging it (blogging). I’ve got an idea for a project involving lots of little neodynium magnets. They’re pretty cool and I’ve been wanting for some ideas involving them to pop into my head for ages and now I’ve got a couple. … Read more
How i learnt to knead time, or my arduino intervalometer
So I made a Intervalometer for my Canon 400d camera at last. It’s another one that’s been in the endlessly long pipeline for a while. I based it on the wonderful Arduino and got a bit of code off the person that made the Intervaluino whic can be found here. It was an excersize in … Read more
Gazebo geodome
I’ve been wanting to make a geodesic dome for years but as usual it’s taken me a long time to get round to it. I originally wanted to make one from tent poles after seeing so many tent left behind at Glastonbury festival to go to waste. But after realising that to make one with … Read more
