Stumbled on this guy from upstate NY's stuff one day. My mind was instantly fucking blown. It's like if Blade Runner birthed a furniture designer/sculptor.
From his site: http://www.theokamecke.com/
Theo Kamecke was for many years a film maker of award-winning documentaries whose subjects ranged frrodeo cowboys to nuclear scientists. He was in mission control during the first moonwalk and has been attacked by wasps in the heart of the Amazon. In the course of making films he often encountered physical objects and maom astronauts to coal miners, terials which fascinated him and usually managed to bring some back from his travels, with no particular purpose in mind. While perusing some stacks of electronic circuit boards one day, that changed, and the purpose was found.
He saw in the graphic patterns of electronic circuitry with their endless variety the same beauty we perceive in seashells, in crystals, in the grain of wood or even in the tree itself. These are all natural forms derived from function, so if we find beauty in them it is not because they were designed to please the eye. The same is true of electronic circuitry. Besides the inherent beauty he found in their design, Kamecke saw that the aesthetic qualities of the circuitry graphics could, like hieroglyphs, be resolved into an inscrutable language or like colors, into a palette of mood.
Nice find! Reminds me of Lemarchand's box
How rad if your coffee table served as a portal to parallel dimensions.

Just got my oil wheel projector up and running. SO HAPPY!
That looks awesome! Good job!
You've made it yourself?

It's all bought on ebay. I bought a bunch of wheels and two more projectors. Also RGB lamps and a lava lamp. This is what it all looked like together, before I moved out of that apartment
that would be one million dollars in electric bills these days...

Looks amazing.
I have made my own oil projector. That stuff was pretty trippy.
I just used an old projecter that could fit pretty wide slides. Then make the slides somewhat leak free and inject colors in the slides and make them warm up for the cool effects. Also you can do live injecting colors with an injection needle but that can get pretty messy soon. Also adding glass parts inside the slides would give extra nice visuals.

I had an insane power usage, admittedly

Cool! I've been meaning to try my hand on building my own oil wheels, and discussed the issue in depth with Marcus Mumm. He had just started experimenting with different liquids and dyes and was eager to share his experiences. May he rest in peace.
