Introducing the EMF 2026 badge upgrade: Spaceagon. Oh and we made a keyboard too. Surprise! blog.emfcamp.org/2026/05/28/t...

A hexagonal electronic camp badge with prototype glowing cat artwork. There is a round screen in the middle.

The camp badge in the background, leaning against it is a plug-in keyboard. The keyboard is VERY PURPLE.

So I've published my model now as well. I'm a perfectionist .., however 3D printers need time to print and people need time to pack, so here goes: www.printables.com/model/137231... Please read the information, but I think it's come out pretty well. #WHY2025 #Badge What 3D Printers Yearn 4

Like many recently, I have joined the Omnifixo owner's club. Together with this case from @commar.bsky.social, it's the perfect all-in-one travel solution!

The Omnifixo plate with a 3d printed case above. The case contains a Type-C to DC Jack adapter, the TS100 soldering iron, and the Omnifixo clamps. There are also two magnets that hold the Omnifixo plate on top, forming a case.

New LED polyhedron build is underway. It's a dihedral hexacontahedron with 60 kite-shaped sides. My PCB polyhedron builds are getting better. These 3D printed tile covers use a translucent PETG designed for lithophanes plus a larger air gap than the last build for much smoother diffusion.

Say hello to the Party Pet, a digital companion to help you meet new friends and have deeper conversations! Created for our final project in our Theory of Tangible User Interface class at UC Berkeley. Made with Arduino :)

The Party Pet digital prototype, which is a Tamagotchi-like screen hooked onto a cup on the left with the Arduino and all of the wires.

Working on a large LED scoreboard. These are magnetic mounts for the panels that fit into T-slot extruded aluminum rails.

Assembling magnetic mounts for LED panels. Each mount is about 10 cm wide by 3 cm high, and has six magnets anchored to them in a 3 by 2 arrangement. The magnets have M4 threads on them anchored by locking hex nuts.

At the upper left is the remnant from an earlier attempt of threading the magnets directly into the holders. Trying to tap the threads accurately proved to be problematic.

~18 months ago I put out a design/video for an open source HitClips-compatible audio cartridge. I have since thrown that in the trash, but about a week ago I "finished" a new version that I'm really excited to share.

Small circuit board in a plastic case. Meant to replace a HitClips audio cartridge from the early 2000's

4 components of the project: a circuit board, a breakout/debugger, a clear plastic case, and a small plastic shim to hold things in place

Seven flat 3d printed panels, mostly computer beige, laid out on a floor. When assembled, they look like they will resemble a boxy capybara head. There is a raspberry pi and bundle of wires in the lower left, a 3d printed citrus in the upper right.
