Tripping Table
2008/01/31
A table that doesn’t like you much…

Now that 3D models are freely available on the internet, what’s to keep me from slightly modyfing an
existing object and turning it into something new?
I took a Panton Chair and turned it into a sofa…
Do I infringe on their copyright?
How much modification is enough to stave off the lawyers?
As I mentioned on my previous minifesto 3D Print Will Kick Our Asses,
this is just the beginning of sampling in the design world.
I can’t wait to see the equivalent of Danger Mouse’s Grey Album…

This morning I glanced at the magazine rack and realized there was a Cruz-Diez.
Even though we like our connection to the decimal system,
the decade will drop out of favor as a way define cultural changes.
The closer we get to the singularity,
change accelerates and the information produced will be too much to compress in a decade.



What if we change one of the legs of a chair into a 50% version of itself?
Fractal infinity…

I just found out that my toothpaste comes with reinforced email.
The hard/software boundary is bluring…

Some clocks being assembled at the Diamantini & Domeniconi factory.
25 years from now wars will not be fought over oil…
Conflict and preemptive strikes will happen when some country runs amok and pollutes or misuses the environment.
People are finally realizing that ecology and sustainability knows no borders.
If somebody mistreats the Earth we all suffer.

I’m currently doing some research for a big name Japanese camera company.
I’ve just finished the presentation and this is the music I did for it.
Big speakers work best!

Hey…
All the best, may half of your wishes come true!
I’m back from my online hiatus.
My only 2008 resolution for the site is this:
Create something new every day for a year.
It can be anything. A drawing, song, thought, photo, whatever as long as I created it.
Lets hope I can meet all our expectations and see if I’m as creative as I think I am.
Cheers.
