→ adafruit industries blog | 22 Feb 2012 | 3:49pm CST
Eric asks: The BIG question for me is how to best bridge the gap between public and private initiatives like this. STEM is currently a buzzword in our local public schools. The motivation to do something is there, but the funding is not. Here’s my question: How do we get we get the private sector...

Zenta » MorpHex, finalizing the upper section. Kåre writes - When I posted the MorpHex part II video I cheated a little to make the upper sphere sections to operate as intended. The “cheat” was to use some kitchen rubber bands. As you can see from the pictures below the 5990 servo push the upper...

The Phantom Menace in 3D
→ robohara.com | 15 Feb 2012 | 6:00am CST
In 1997 the original Star Wars movie was re-released in theaters, 20 years after it was originally released. I already owned the movie on VHS at that point — several copies, in fact — but there’s something about seeing movies (and those movies in particular) in a theater with a huge screen, loud speakers, and...

Back in 2003, I went to a video game auction and bought two arcade machines: Bucky O’Hare, and Shinobi. I bought Bucky O’Hare on a whim because Bucky’s last name...

Last Sunday, Dad came over and joined us for the 2012 Super Bowl. We were all rooting for the Chicago Bears, but since they weren’t playing, none of us cared who won or lost. Instead we just ate a lot and had a good time visiting. We started off with these ribeyes, which Susan cooked...

The single most frustrating part of collecting arcade games has been the amount of maintenance it takes to keep them running. As a kid I had no idea how much time and effort was spent in keeping these machines running — then again back then when these machines were new, I suspect they weren’t quite...

„Der Begriff der Existenz, als der Wesenhaftigkeit von Vergängnis, der Zeitlichkeit des Zeitlichen, hält Existenz fern durch ihre Nennung. Am verfinsterten Himmel der Existenzlehre aber leuchtet kein Gestirn mehr. Existenz wird geweiht ohne das Weihende. Von der ewigen Idee, an der das Seiende teilhaben oder durch die es bedingt sein sollte, ist nichts übrig...

The modus is not dissection, but empathic association of constellations. Appearance is partly played and partly unconscious visual expression of feelings. Language therefore is the...
