New project ideas
From Hacklab
- T shirts: to be made to be sold at events that the hacklab are or not involved in, just as a way of promoting the lab and raising funds and getting more people involed.
Add designs and or wording below. Once enough designs have been gathered they will be harvested and produced, so get scribbiling.
- Mechanoid computer sculpture: This came up on the list there is more someware, MUSIC:
wot about a communal collection of 6million mp3's put on random selection on a lap top or similar ? but i guess im just lazy. the DJ cult is dead, we can replace them with robots ;-)
Yes!!. in fact the idea of a dismantable/portable 15meter tall cast iron static robotic structure will several limbs, each holding a monitor, with a control keyboard and a mass of cables in its inners, lazers being projected from its eyes and the playlist being scrambled and continually re-collated by the trigger of people crossing motion detectors scattered about the room. I agree this is much better and far more representative of the HackLab (then someone playing records) Bringing a vision of the future though distorted space into the our Present Time. Do we have enough computer bits ?and iron/welder/anglegrinder/manpower/ideas/vision to build the unltimate in modded computer housing with its guts hanging out for everyone to see, touch and feel. (interactive entertainment) I have 2 motiondetectors, two small black n white cctv monitors, two cctv cameras, two monitors and three keyboards. Anyone have any bits ideas?
