Artist Leonardo Ulian makes “technological mandalas” from the electronic components. This one reminds me of the cat paintings by Louis Wain, who was rumored to have schizophrenia.
Quote:
I think of my mandalas as ephemeral gizmos, able to trigger the eyes and minds of the viewers with images and thoughts of any sort, but without taking it too seriously. I used the word “ephemeral” because electronic technology is in a way impermanent. It is constantly changing and can become easily obsolete, like sand mandalas can be easily brushed away after days of work.


wow
i think my boyfriend would be happy to have one
I’d like to see the schematic!
so if i put 5 volts between upper left and lower right, what voltage should i expect between upper right and lower left?
great, but… does it DO anything? cuz otherwise you have a very fragile Kentucky do-nothing.
