Dinoball, The Instability of Form

A project just completed for the Decompression event in NYC:

A cross between a teacup fairground ride and a teeter totter, The Instability of Form (aka Dinoball) is an interactive sculpture. It will have three dinosaur heads mounted on it, and the riders' collective motion can lean it back and forth encouraging one dinosaur over another. (The piece can also be spun on wheels) The three heads express the continuity and instability of forms in nature as they evolve. Each one is slightly different, and the circular nature of the piece asks the question: "which came first, the chicken or the dinosaur egg?"

Start with a laser cut, press braked, powder coated part. Make 3 and rotate them around one another: A coffee table with nesting parts and easy assembly

A dining table currently in the works for CNC fabrication

Stem table in birch and bamboo now up on Ponoko

custom fruit bowls/baskets completed

I designed these as a wedding present for a couple we know who just got married. Some of their favorite animals are monkeys and turtles, so I incorporated the animals into the baskets. This is the start of a mass-customizable line of like items soon to be sold in the store. They are made from stained, laser-cut birch plywood.
