Modern Digestion is a nod to the intestinal tract and all the microbiota working in miraculous ways to perpetually break down, absorb, or pass the extraordinary collection of natural, synthetic, planned, and unintended items we put down our esophagus. From prehistoric to recently engineered foods, the gut keeps it all moving.

The light sequence, composed of 26 programmable LEDs, fades at random intervals, in a random order, through meditative warm and cool tones. This piece can operate plugged into a USB outlet or charged for five or more hours of untethered operation. Programmed with CircuitPython.
AQI Funnies builds off the Internet of Things trend by combining live air quality data (in this case, from zip code 94114) with single-frame comics. Using an e-paper display and the Air Now air quality API, a ghost-like friend presents the viewer with a statement about the rating for the day. The character's mood, background, and messaging change to one of seven different scenes based on the particulate count at the current moment. From great to hazardous, the guiding figure encourages or warns you, with a random adjective, about what you might be exposing your lungs and body to that day.
King of Fruits, inspired by the Southeast Asian durian, is a handheld sculpture that illuminates bulging protrusions with a calm and changing array of LED colors. Loved and loathed for its smell and taste, this polarizing fruit is often referred to as the "King of Fruits." This abstraction of the durian maintains the crown-like cap and replaces the odor with a glow. King of Fruits is rechargeable and portable, lasting six or more hours on a recharge.
The wood base is milled with the Bantam Tools desktop mill, and the controller is coded with CircuitPython. The main shape is modeled using Grasshopper and Rhino 3D.
Hot Coil, a palm-size light-emitting sculpture, is rechargeable and portable. Every 15 to 20 minutes a circuitPython controller randomly fades RGB LEDs through a range of warm colors.
The piece can operate plugged to a USB outlet or untethered for about three hours per 15 min recharge.
Materials: CNC-cut & hand finished walnut and acrylic, microcontroller, addressable LEDs, rechargeable battery
Dimensions: 4”w x 4”h x 4”d
CNC-cut cherry and walnut, 3D-printed lens, Acrylic, Microcontroller, Addressable LEDs, Rechargeable battery
Chonky, a light-emitting sculpture, is symmetrically lumpy, rechargeable, and portable. A translucent 3D-printed lens press sits on atop a gradient of hand-finished wood and orange acrylic. A circuitPython controller changes the RGB LEDs about every 20 minutes.
The piece can operate plugged to a USB outlet or untethered for 4 hours per recharge.
Dimensions: 4.5”w x 4.25”h x 4.5”d

CNC-cut walnut, 3D printed lens, Acrylic, Arduino, Addressable LEDs, Rechargeable battery
Sweet Loaf is a small rechargeable freestanding light source. The lamp can operate plugged to a wall or untethered for about 5 hours per recharge. A micro switch and usb charging port are embedded in the side of the acrylic. All machining on the wood and acrylic was done on the Bantam Tools Mill.
Dimensions: 5”w x 3”h x 4”d
