Curiosity Get Together - 17th May - McGinty’s
The next get together is this Tuesday (17th May) in McGinty’s opposite the library in Ipswich from 8pm.
This week we need to put together our first draft list of what we’re showing at the Time Show II (9th to 16th July). If you can’t make it and you want to show please send an email to the list with your ideas, so your voice is in the conversation too.
Do bring along things to show, ideas to share, etc - time (or cube) related or not!
All welcome, as ever.
Cheers,
Dave

Curiosity at the Maker Faire, 11-13 March 2011, Newcastle-upon-Tyne
Things are getting busy at the Collective as we update a few of our Time Show pieces to exhibit at Maker Faire UK. If you are a maker/crafter/hacker/enthusiast and find yourself in Newcastle between 11-13th March the faire is well worth a visit. Details of our projects below:
Curious Time
Reel to Reel - Three tape recorders share one loop of tape recording, superimposing and feeding back to create complex soundscapes. (Mike Challis)
Atmospherical Clocks - A collection of clocks which take their sense of the seconds, minutes and hours from fluctuations in atmospheric and environmental conditions, including temperature, light, air pressure, electro magnetism, sound, radioactivity. (John Bowers)
The Perfect Hindsight Machine - A one-of-a-kind device developed by the US Military in the 1950s. Combining recovered alien technology with a state of the art RF receiver, its dial can tune in to video action live from history all the way back to 1894 (Cefn Hoile and Neill Keywood)
The Interactive Eggtimer. (Cefn Hoile and Clare Bowman)
