“PomPom Mirror” (2015) by Daniel Rozin from bitforms gallery on Vimeo.

“PomPom Mirror”, 2015
928 faux fur pom poms, 464 motors, control electronics, video camera, custom software, microcontroller, wooden armature
48 x 48 x 18 in / 121.9 x 121.9 x 45.7 cm

Rozin’s anthropomorphic “PomPom Mirror” features a synchronized array of 928 spherical faux fur puffs. Organized into a three-dimensional grid of beige and black, the sculpture is controlled by hundreds of motors that build silhouettes of viewers using computer-vision. Along its surface, figures appear as fluffy animal-like representations within the picture plane, which is made permeable by a ‘push-pull’ forward and backward motion of meshed ‘pixels’. Ghostly traces fade and emerge, as the motorized composition hums in unified movement, seemingly alive and breathing as a body of its own.

FreeCAD talk at FOSDEM 2015 from Yorik van Havre on Vimeo.

A talk about FreeCAD I did at FOSDEM in Brussels in Feb. 2015. The slides are available at yorik.uncreated.net/archive/talks/freecad-fosdem15.pdf

This is a remastered version from the original published by FOSDEM available at video.fosdem.org/2015/main_track-hardware/ where I added the slides and raised the audio volume.
