Méduse Light by Lukas Bazle

Inspired by the very fascinating material of a honeycomb blind the idea was born to make an adjustable lampshade out of it. The already developed material can be adapted into a new but similar range of application. Besides its functional use for adjusting the direction and brightness of the light, the honeycombs also generate a kinetic motion. In addition, a motor-driven version that can be controlled along with smart home is planned.

It’s a prototype, not available for sale

An Orbit Map of the Solar System

This week’s map shows the orbits of more than 18000 asteroids in the solar system. This includes everything we know of that’s over 10km in diameter - about 10000 asteroids - as well as 8000 randomized objects of unknown size. This map shows each asteroid at its exact position on New Years’ Eve 1999.

The build process is open source (link) and the final map is also available for purchase in various forms (link).

The "Very Slow Movie Player"

VSMP is an object that contains a Raspberry Pi computer, custom software, and a reflective ePaper display (similar to a Kindle), all housed inside a 3D printed case. Every 2.5 minutes a frame from the film stored on the computer’s memory card is extracted, converted to black and white using a dithering algorithm, and then communicated to the reflective ePaper display. This adds up to playing the film at a rate of 24 frames per hour, which is in contrast to the traditional speed of 24 frames per second. That’s the slow part, obviously.
