Suspend a large cube covered in almost transparent red cloth by one corner to the ceiling. Then use EL wire or LED strips to trace the connections inside the cube, maybe animating them to look like nerve impulses.<br> <br>This is something that could be made very large yet lightweight and collapsible: mostly thin cloth with a few internal rods to give the cube its shape. Not what we originally had in mind in terms of a window display, but worth considering, if only because of its simplicity in construction.<br> <br>If we do go with the window installation, I put a pack of six suction cups in our locker at Techliminal. Feel free to use any of the motors, gears, and switches in the bag in the plastic bag in the locker too. We've got at least 5 little DC motors, which I think run on 4V and could be used to power some light-weight pieces.<br> <br>Did anyone attend the Make:SF meetup on building automata out of paperclips at Techliminal or TechShop? Filling the entire window with moving paperclip automata powered by a few hidden DC motors could be really cool (and quite modular - everyone can build a little piece). I believe they have another one coming up next week: <br> <br><a href="http://www.meetup.com/makesf/events/67790022/">http://www.meetup.com/makesf/events/67790022/</a><br><a href="http://blog.dugnorth.com/2012/01/how-to-build-simple-machines-with-paper.html">http://blog.dugnorth.com/2012/01/how-to-build-simple-machines-with-paper.html</a><br> <br>Last random thought: it would be great if we could do something with the slot in the window as well - maybe an arm reaching out through the slot towards the viewer?<br><br>Patrik<br> <br></procrastination><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jun 14, 2012 at 9:51 PM, Felicia Betancourt <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:fmbetancourt@gmail.com" target="_blank">fmbetancourt@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> my 2 cents...some interactivity would be great, either in the display window or inside.

We have had some discussion about setting up a Bio lab and kinetic sculptures in the cool glass box downstairs. Other things that could happen are performance of any kind, poetry reading or essay reading, really anything. And we should let people and media know that we'll be a part of the art walk. I am terrible at promotion/marketing, so I am I hoping someone else might have skills at that. I think it would be a nice opportunity to draw community attention to our evolving group.
