Agnes Bolt made analog versions of 5 of Rafaël Rozendaal his websites: jello time .com, popcorn painting .com, much better than this .com, to the water .com and color flip .com.





“Back In” from Laser is probably the first laser cut plexi phono record. A few weeks ago, Niklas Roy and Jari Suominen had the chance to use a laser cutter at timelab’s fablab. So they decided to make a record with 8 track loops.
They used a vector program to draw the actual record. With different line colours they could modulate the laser’s intensity. They also experimented with different depths of the groove within one loop like in track 6. Track 2 is something like a random noise experiment where the needle jumps in a different way over the grooves, each time the track is played. So every track has a different idea.
In the video, Jari explains the whole project and at the end you can listen to all 8 tracks.

You might want to turn down the volume a little. Sorry Fabian, I just had to warn everyone.
“The History of the Typewriter recited by Michael Winslow” is a 21 minutes long film made by Ignacio Uriarte.
First he recorded the original sounds of 62 typewriters of different times, countries and technologies. Then, the actor Michael Winslow reproduced a selection of these sounds in chronolgical order, tracing a temporary journey through almost 100 years of history and creating this way an homage to the sound qualities of the typewriter and its former presence in the office.
It sounds amazing, you can see the quicktime version here. I bet he can do those modem dial-in sounds too. Remember those?

Meara O’Reilly can sing salt patterns. Euh what? By singing certain tones, she can create resonant patterns with salt scattered on an Chladni plate. I know this sounds weird, in both ways, but watch the video to see the patterns shift from one into another.

Credit Synthesis by Jonathan Vingiano is a sculpture which interprets magnetically stored data and translates it into a brief melody.

Remember the Nike Music Shoe ad from 2 weeks ago? Well, here’s the making of video. Seems like it was a very fun project.
