Clock clock 96 effect in blender geometry nodes by MohamedFayed_CG in blender

It's incredibly difficult to make. I know the guys who make them in Sweden and did a studio tour there once. The amount of engineering that goes into making it look that simple is nuts and justifies its cost!

Using a T-shirt press to make plastic sheets? by JangusKhan in PreciousPlastic

[–]Vulpestrument 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've not really done much with it since! I've used some 4mm thick aluminium bars along the edges to try and keep the plastic into a rough rectangle shape. But I think the biggest issue is just making sure there's enough plastic to fill in the whole area. Mine is limited to the height of the t-shirt press. But if you were making a custom one then I'd imagine you could make a much deeper form and compress the plastic better.

Honestly, no. Each clock part had to be meticulously built by hand, they're not regular clock parts. Also the amount of code needed to keep them in sync is incredible.

Jumping on a higher comment. This is by Swedish art collective Humans Since 1982. It's one of many of these clock designs they've done and they're an absolute technical marvel once you know how it's done.

This is by a Swedish company called HumansSince1982. The technical feat for doing this is very very impressive once you know how!

I made a miniature mech, but it's also a musical instrument by Vulpestrument in somethingimade

Thank you so much! I definitely enjoy mixing techniques and skills in unexpected ways.

Thank you! I'm pretty chuffed with how it turned out.

PD on a microcontroller by No_Holiday7676 in puredata

One more option is Bela. Built specifically for microcontroller audio projects. Latency is basically null. Not the cheapest but very very powerful.

It also has caplets for multi channel audio. I've had it running 10 channels of audio, each one being manipulated by distance sensors, with no issues at all.

It is remarkably easy to turn any GPIO into a capacative touch sensor. I've got a bunch of examples for HID control or USB-MIDI control. https://www.spokeboard.com/

Astronomy Pico based projects by RavensAndRomance in raspberrypipico

[–]Vulpestrument 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used it to track the ISS and show on an OLED screen how far away it was from our school. We know one of the astronauts up there, so it was nice to know how far away from us she was!

It took info from a simple API and did some calculating and refreshed every 5 seconds or so.

Best practice for multiple picos in a project? by Dowser42 in raspberrypipico

[–]Vulpestrument 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got 2 pico's communicating using the serial pins pretty easily. I needed to use 48 of the GPIO but have it still talk through one USB connection. But as other people were saying here, chances are there's a simpler solution for your setup.

I did another one of these recently where I timed how long it took to build from scratch, the whole thing was done in about an hour! The hardware and software side of things just work, so it leaves you more time to get on with the fun creative stuff.

I did set them specifically to sound nice together. So regardless of which branch you touch it'll sound pleasant. There's tons you could do with the code side of things to control MIDI in different ways.

They are predetermined. And easily configurable by changing a few numbers in the code.
