MkShft Light Table

July 29, 2006

I made this light table for use in burning screens with more accuracy. It is made from a flippped over Lego table with a large window pain resting on the now inverted four legs of the table. The table had the center removed to originally house a hanging bag for block storage. This proved to be a great way to inset the light so that as I was testing out a new brand of emulsion I could adjust the distance from the light to the screen.

We decided to take a shredder full of junk mail from countless credit card companies and home repair services and make some new paper out of it.

Formalplay MD06 Wrapping Paper

May 21, 2006

This is wrapping paper that I created from evolutions of some coded drawing studies. I then used a couple pieces of it to wrap some mother's day gifts (below).

The Awesome Friends Cable

April 05, 2006

I have the awesomest friends. (If you think you do you are wrong. Because I do.) And sometimes they leave me the awesomest voicemails and I have been wanting a way to save them. The old method of micing the phone itself never really worked well and I realized that the phone does have an audio out so I made this cable last night so that I could get phone activity directly into a recording device.

	It started with an 1/8 inch jack and an old hands free unit with a broken mic we had laying around {thanks [M]}.
	Once I took the hands free unit apart I realized that there where 2 cables (one for voice, one for ears) so I had to crack the mic open to see which one went where. The copper+red one was the one I needed.
	Each set of 2 wires was in one plastic tubing with a very loose divider so I had to protect them from each other. I just smashed some electrical tape around the one.
	After I soldered the points to the 1/8 jack and put the jack housing back up and around I taped off the end I was not using and I had my cable.
