Kim Pimmel<\/strong> created this stunning audio-visual trip, Light Drive<\/a>, on an old turntable with light painting techniques, stop-motion, and mashed-up audio from Tron Legacy trailers<\/a>. (via Matt Moore<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Way sexier than Tron Kama Sutra<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here’s how Kim<\/strong>, UX designer at Adobe<\/strong> (go figure) did it: <\/p>\n

“The video is stop motion, so every frame is an individually shot photograph. Each photograph is a long exposure photo, with exposures reaching up to 20 seconds in some cases.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

To control the lights, I used an Arduino controlled via bluetooth to drive a stepper motor. The stepper motor controls the movements of the lights remotely from Processing.<\/p>\n

The light sources include cold cathode case lights, EL wire, lasers and more<\/em> .”<\/p>\n
