This is the final jacket for the "Light Wash Denim" installation at #teardown2024. Patterns generated by @wizard 's awesome #pixelblaze controller, and I used @jasoncoon 's very helpful pixel mapping program to extract the LED positions from a photo of the wiring. I'm getting super excited for Teardown now!
New work in progress. I will be exhibiting some illuminated denim jackets at #teardown, and am trying to finish two more to round out the collection. It was hard to settle on a design, but I finally chose one, and like how it is turning out. The LED string is taped in place right now, but once I hot glue it to the diffusers, this panel will be sewn onto the back of a jacket, then pixel mapped for a #Pixelblaze controller.
The hummingbird LED panel is now pixelmapped, attached to a #pixelblaze controller, and sewn to the back of an LED jacket for display as part of a "Light Wash Denim" collection at #teardown2024 in just over a week.
This kind of bullshit should be illegal. Spotify is effectively remotely bricking every single "Car Thing" device it ever sold, telling users to factory reset and "recycle" them. The devices were initially made publicly available only two years ago in Feb 2022, then discontinued production in July 2022. https://www.theverge.com/2024/5/23/24163383/spotify-car-thing-discontinued-december-2024
Look at this cute couple of Cuttlefish! I created the first illuminated plushie to exchange with another maker and liked it so much I built another for myself. The #pixelblaze controller makes it easy to coordinate patterns.
