Rainbow LED Relay

Currently in development

This full-color LED relay is based on the APDS 9960 gesture sensor. Coupled with an Arduino or ATtiny and capacitive sensing, each module can trigger a rainbow effect by "letting go" of the object after rotating it in place. If a module's sensors "see" the light, the color is recognized and the next in sequence is emitted, thereby continuing the relay of color. A playful concept with various creative applications!

DIAGONALES – Mclaren Mur à Mur

Description

Another creative opportunity from Iregular, I assisted with the programming and development of a multi-channel input tracking system using Max/MSP and 16-channel mixers. We were able to triangulate the position of people's interactions by utilizing 16 contact mics and tracking amplitude.

Hardware/Software Used

• Max/MSP
• Steel Structure
• Contact Mics
• Multi-Channel Mixer

Automated Content Creation (Cinco 2019)

Insta-Fashion Videos

During my time at CINCO, I helped develop experiential marketing campaigns. We created unique activities for public events, including this Instamatic "Fashion Commercial" Booth. Using multiple camera angles feeding into one computer running Touchdesigner, I leveraged my experience with After Effects to program automated content replacement and on-the-fly rendering and uploading.

Insta-"3D" GIF

To achieve this "3D" effect in a GIF, I automated an Android phone to move along the track, record the subject for 2 seconds, and send the content to backend services. We used FFMPEG and other tools to brand and convert the files before sending them back for selection.

CUSTOM AUDIO CIRCUITS

STYLOPHONE Re-DESIGN

Inspired by the Stylophones of the 80s-90s. My co-designer, Roni, and I have begun developing our own simple pen-based electronics synths.

ATARI PUNK CONSOLE

Shown above are one of many "Atari Punk Consoles" I have made for family and friends. It is my favorite electronics starter-project and can be easily modified and extended to include various sensors both digital or analog.
