A gentleman who goes by the name Gieskes has created an interesting conflation of seemingly opposing mediums. The DIY’er / artist in question has combined Game Boy-based music with a low-fi, mechanical system of lights and motors, which create kinetic-art visuals that are synced to the sound. The concept is to build screen-saver-like displays which are actually created with analog equipment. The device features three components — cans, lights, and a camera — all of which can be “sequenced” much like the Game Boy, thus producing constantly changing (and changeable) effects. Want to see it for yourself? Watch the video after the break (especially towards the end) to learn how it all takes shape.
