The Geocities of Things

Already a month ago I visited the conference day of the STRP Festival in Eindhoven. There was one lecture I enjoyed a lot. Russel Davies, a team-member of the RIG, presented his playfull crititque about The Internet of Things, which he called the Geocities of Things. Check his blog for an article about this! Some examples he showed were the hilarious Halloween Light Shows. And this one because its Christmas :-)

Nou&Herkauw MicroGarden VJ-Set

A couple of weeks ago Nou&Herkauw did a new VJ experiment. For a special party in the Blokhuis Poort, a former prison in Leeuwarden, we created a small garden, extracted all kinds of organic colour liquids, collected some finger cams and usb microscopes, bought very old books about nature, developed some loop and buffer software, created 2 stop-motion sets, and used all this as source for a bio-vj-set. Here are some pics. :) Many thanks to Marin de Boer for growing the garden, and Erwin Zantinga for his great animating efforts!
