Just a quick note about the exciting things people spoke about at This Happened on Friday night.
This time around we were tucked away in the corner of the Tim Walker exhibition - (photos of multicoloured kittens and this really cool giant glove) at the Design Museum, which was good because we could see and hear everything.
Yuri Suzuki spoke about scalextric style record player, from his latest project "physical value of sound". A little car with a needle on the underside followed a track made from recycled vinyl cut at 45 degree angles.
He combined the elements of two toys to create something that had a great tactile and playful quality. Would be great to see this taken further, with one car on vocals, one on drums etc. I think it would be great in-store in a trendy record shop or something. I liked the fact that he showed the last minute breakthroughs and the fact that they finally got it working about 4 days before the show!
Dominic Harris from Cinimod Studio spoke about making a UFO that flew over the Polish city of Gdansk.
Essentially a giant plate shaped thing dangling from a terrifyingly vintage helicopter covered in LED's, the Gdansk UFO is a surreal and wondrous thing. To me it looks pretty magical. Apparently YouTubers agree, as many seem to think its a hoax!
