A group of classmates and I will be giving a presentation next week to our Applications class. It will be in response to a presentation we saw last week from Kevin Cunningham of 3-Legged Dog, a workspace and accompanying theater group that blends technology with performances and art installations. As part of our presentation, we built a Dreamachine – a device that creates a strobe-like effect to stimulate the eyes. Using plans modified from 10111, we spent last Friday afternoon planning and assembling the machine. The plan was blown up to a 50″ square piece of heavy paper which was wrapped around a foam base and supported by some narrow aluminum poles. Watch the video of the finished device below, and click below that to see the construction pictures.
