I wanted to document some of the work I've been doing at our house. I put up a bench seat + shelves + a sort-of sideboard in the living room in December. And I finally got our artwork up in a gallery wall a little after that.

Bench with custom dog cubbies and bookshelves. It's since gotten a cushion

The sideboard somewhat organized.

I was reading about using random selection of proportional tickets to schedule CPU tasks and wanted to try probabilistically selecting pixel colors. This effect was interesting but I think I was hoping for more structure or more of a feel like a physical process. Will keep exploring.

WIP booklog

Making another custom spotify interface - focused on surfacing 6 random albums from a collection I've put together.

Working on a book log, with multiple short entries per book.

Returning to the winamp skin shuffler connected to Spotify.

Neovim as window manager preview

I recorded a video of my current Neovim + Niri setup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCbwL1iRWXk

Testing out printing little foldable music boxes with the barcodes. Fun to try and decide on the dimensions - I'd really like a spine.

Also not sure what I want to do for structure. I put a cardboard in one of these - I bet I could cut up some scrap 1/2" plywood to use as blanks...

Testing out a barcode scanner as a way to play albums (through Spotify in this case). Wondering if this is a way to bridge from tangibility of physical media to flexibility of digital.

Working rough player scanner. TODO: I accidentally mirror-flipped this video

Spotify IDs are kind of long to do directly so switched to sequential IDs and a lookup

Four recent experiments:

More paint tests with the projector and touch frame.

Painting with an IR touch frame, projector, and http://image-paint.constraint.systems

I got the projector sized to the IR touch frame. I made a desk inset for it and a wood overlay to sit on top.

The overlay makes the section non-interactive (it had to be an overlay bc the IR beams need to get from one-side to the other).

I ordered this IR touch screen frame not knowing what to expect and am so far pleasantly surprised. I need to map the projector to it but touch detection seems pretty good.
