Hello.
Slow London
I made a little video. A quick visual experiment.

Inspired by Trey Ratcliff’s ‘Stuck in Motion’ technique (http://www.stuckincustoms.com/stuckinmotion) and shot on an iPhone 4S at 60fps using SloPro (http://sloproapp.com). Since publishing this, I’ve been pointed at this AMAZING and much much more exciting music video which you should frankly watch instead: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIArJjU8HjE
Things Riding on Things
I made a little website. A growing collection.

Makey Makey
Handy USB kit for turning any object into a keyboard key press. Based on an Arduino, but aimed at making it super easy to alligator-clip things in to your computer. I like it
