A map of known places where urban hacker benches have been built. A workshop and exhibition of the uHbench project has been scheduled in Constant VZW at the end of this week. For that, they’ve asked me to produce 2 posters that will be displayed along the benches built for the occasion. One of the…

Blender shortcuts right in your search engine
Two months ago, I attended a community meetup in NY called Quack & Hack. The point of it was to gather people around coding to improve the DuckDuckGo search engine. If you don’t know DuckDuckGo (DDG) by now, it’s the “search engine that does not track you”. And it’s been my tool of choice when…

Il y a de la poésie dans un sèche-cheveux
Je vais encore piquer un lien à Prosthetic Knowledge, ce terrible blog d’art et de nouvelles technologies dont on se demande où ils vont chercher tout ça. Ici, il s’agit d’un projet d’installation de Blizzard Concept, qui apparemment n’en est pas à son premier essai avec les sèche-cheveux. Ce projet allie magie nouvelle et arts…

Les doigts dans le générique
Acoustic Labs regorge de reprises de musiques de film et autres bandes originales jouées aux arpèges. La première, de circonstance, reprend le thème de Game of Thrones, dont la saison 6 vient de débuter sur un épisode parfaitement ennuyant. Merci à E.T. pour la suggestion et la vidéo ci-dessous. Je vous laisse faire les références…
