I ❤ Little Printer | Bergcloud

Hello Little Printer, available 2012 from BERG on Vimeo.

Another great idea from Berg...no matter how 'digital' things become we all like to print bits and bobs out. Thanks @andrewdotdobson for the find.

Geometric Art by Mary Webb

This weekend I visited 'Journeys in Colour' an exhibition by Suffolk based artist Mary Webb http://marywebb.co.uk/ at the Sainsbury Centre UEA Norwich http://www.scva.co.uk/exhibitions/current/index.php?exhibition=90

I'd never heard of her before, but her Patrick Caulfield meets Bridget Riley style is boldly imposing. Some big pieces too, walking into the main exhibit room graphically punches you between the eyes. The exhibition continues until 26 Feb 2012.

Plink Multiplayer Music Experience

Plink is a multiplayer music experience with a super intuitive user interface. Simply by clicking and moving your mouse you create music in real time. You can play by yourself or together with three friends (or strangers). No hassle, just plain fun music creation.Note: Plink is a Chrome experiment. It’s built with HTML5, JavaScript and the under development Web Audio API. Because of this you most likely need to use the latest version of Chrome for smooth playback.

Semiconductor 20 Hz | Geo-magnetic Storm

"20 Hz observes a geo-magnetic storm occurring in the Earth's upper atmosphere. Working with data collected from the CARISMA radio array and interpreted as audio, we hear tweeting and rumbles caused by incoming solar wind, captured at the frequency of 20 Hertz. Generated directly by the sound, tangible and sculptural forms emerge suggestive of scientific visualisations. As different frequencies interact both visually and aurally, complex patterns emerge to create interference phenomena that probe the limits of our perception." http://www.semiconductorfilms.com/root/20Hz/20Hz.htm
