reboot PREPARED-GAMEBOY

By Peter Swimm, on March 12th, 2010

It is sort of a gameboy reboot version of It’s Gonna Rain or Sweet 16… But then mostly phasing silence.

The gameboys get reset by the startup sound of themselve. And they run out of phase because one gameboy is running at 4 mhz and the other at 4.194304 mhz (the original speed).

reboot PREPARED-GAMEBOY.

Gijs Gieskes at OFFF

By Peter Swimm, on May 14th, 2009

CDM has an interesting discussion about technology and the democratic nature of cheap and easily available tech tools. Also a good look at another super Gijs Gieskes performance.

What does it mean to truly democratize technology? When is DIY more than just the creation of an object? That’s the question asked by our friend Julià Carboneras, who curated the new Nerdeferences feature of the OFFF digital design conference in Portugal last week. DIY is more than just cool devices, argues Julià: it’s social hacking, too. He brought together myself, Instructables.com founder Eric Wilhelm, and musical inventor and artist Gijs Gieskes (who stole the show, showing some creations live onstage). But there was a bigger picture, too, that I wanted to share.
