inkquencer is an interaction design project by danish designer sebastian ronde thielke, which plays music based on a computer’s camera input. to interact with the project, users draw shapes and patterns on pieces of paper and hold them up to the camera on a computer. the computer captures an image of the drawing and compresses it into a 32×30 pixel version. the computer then plays the image, making a sound for each black pixel. the system can be applied to a drawing randomly or can be ‘played’ by uses with basic knowledge of the inkquencer’s process. coming from a music background, ronde thielke wanted to find ways of bringing music sequencing into the physical world to allow for ‘a more direct tangible way of experimenting with sound and rhythm.’

Video case history detailing the development of the ondotzero brand identity 2009 / 2010

A New Zealand mechanic has created a machine that can be used on land, on water and in the air. Rudy Heeman took the model of a hovercraft and created a floating machine that could also take to the skies. The W.I.G. or “wing in ground effective vehicle” rides like a normal hovercraft but once it reaches a speed of 70km/h, it becomes airborne.

Directed by James Frost, OK Go and Syyn Labs. Produced by Shirley Moyers. The official video for the recorded version of “This Too Shall Pass” off of the album “Of the Blue Colour of the Sky”. The video was filmed in a two story warehouse, in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, CA. The “machine” was designed and built by the band, along with members of Synn Labs (http://syynlabs.com/ ) over the course of several months.
