Light bulb filled with concrete

cy1701 — Mon, 21 Feb 2011 04:47:14 +0000

I saw a post once where someone had created a concrete light bulb removing the end and filling the glass with concrete and removing the glass once it was set. here is my attempt. I think it is not too bad it is now hanging in my office at work.

There was some small airbubbles in the mix.

The flash fills in all of the air bubbles.

I was playing with my Arduino processor and posted a video or a RC servo interfaced with a joystick.

I finally removed my but from the couch and picked up a boxee box. Nice media player. Has a few bug (if you read the forum you would think the world was coming to a frigging end) The devs are working on the issue and it mostly works for me. Also go a Insignia infocast unit. It is a chumby unit made by the hardware manufacture wing of BestBuy. Nice little info station.Uses flash for the display os but has some interesting connections very hardware mage friendly.

Something new

Just saw Craig Ferguson with Matt Smith from Dr Who and wow. I need to start recoding this show. Any show that has puppets is cool.

An oil painting

cy1701 — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 12:18:16 +0000

Still posting up little projects I have done over the years and current projects.

This is an oil painting I did a couple of years ago in a Bob Ross style class at the art supply store.

I have done a couple more and gave them away for Christmas presents. I enjoy the method of painting and I use the wet on wet technique in the spray paint art I made. Now I think I want to try a layered approach to the canvas.
