Home Electronics


Interactive exhibition at Wesleyan University’s Archive Gallery
Fall 2025

The show is called Home Electronics, but it might also be called Home Wood-working, Home Digifab, Home Coding, Home Sewing... you get the picture.

Everything pictured, from the wooden furniture, to the lamps, to the lights and hidden electronics, are all created from scratch -- whipped up by yours truly, with the (generous?) support of ai tools and  tutelage from a WiFi networking master and a woodworking master.
 
At the heart of this exhibit is my WiFi networked VJ system, reimagined and recontextualized for a domestic setting.




All five lights can be individiually or  collectively changed (TV too!) via a remote control website, accessible from a public WiFi network.

On the opening night, visitors simultaneously changed the exhibit.





The “TV” and surrounding lamps are all linked via the same remote control site.

A “color sync” button even syncs the color of the LEDs with that of the TV screen (if you’re in the mood for it).
