MAKE pal Roger Ibars is selling the first Sony alarm clock controlled by Nintendo light gun… ” The idea of the Hard-wired devices is simple: I re-manufacture existing electronic devices by upgrading their interfaces with better ones (or strange ones too). Think about it, there are lots of poorly designed interfaces for products (hey, don’t send me your list of complaints). What I do is improve them -well, do my best- by simply customising a new electronic relationship between the two existing products. I usually hack into great vintage electronic appliances.” – [via] Link.
