WTF?
Why use electronic components merely for their ability to conduct electricity in various ways? We can use the beauty and simplicity of electronic components to achieve other goals; e.g. art, decoration, jewelry.
Implemented ideas
Resistor based spider web
This is a web build from 142 resistors, soldered to one another into a spider web like configuration. It consists of 5 radial threads connecting the web to the environment and 6 concentric "rings".
Resistor necklace
Minimalistic necklace build from a chain of resistors. The wires of each resistor are twisted to form a loop which is used to chain them together.
This unisex necklace has been successfully beta tested at Fx50!!! and a formal Christmas party
New Ideas
- Add an IC, capacitor or other larger component to the necklace as a pendant.
- Extend the concept into the domain of functionalism: Wearable working circuits.
